Demo-cracy

[Girish Bharadwaj @Girishbdwj]

Shocking! The Karnataka Government is imposing its political mindset on society. Police tried to stop the singing of Vande Mataram after just two stanzas, preventing people from completing the national song.

Is this how a democratic government should behave? Such actions remind us of the British mindset that once opposed Vande Mataram.

[Abhi @_Avykt]

3 years back Hombale films released the full version of Vande Mataram. It’s sung by Vijay Prakash & features achievers across fields from Karnataka

It remains my favourite rendition of this beautiful song 🇮🇳

This place in Rainawari (Kashmir) is known as 'Batta Mazar'.

It literally means 'Graveyard of Brahmins'.

620 years ago, Muslims summoned Brahmins to this place and gave them two choices

1) Discard Janeu
2) Diε

Nobody discarded Janeu. They were all killεd. 37 kg of Janeu was collected from their dead bodies and burnt. Hence the name 'Batta Mazar'.

This is what Kashmiri Brahmins suffered in the hands of Kashmiri Muslims for 700 years.

But in the eyes of Indian state today, Kashmiri Brahmins are the 'oppressors' and Kashmiri Muslims are 'oppressed'.

It rewards Kashmiri Muslims with reservations while many exiled Kashmiri pandits still rot in tents and refugee camps.

This is India's reservation policy in a nutshell.

Hindu women working as caterers were forced to remove their Sindoor and wear Islamic head coverings at an auditorium in Kerala's Calicut . No news in MSM, no discussion anywhere. If this had happened the other way around even the Chief Minister would have had to resign !!!

‘Felt very bad paying ₹500 bribe’: Trainee IPS officer Rahul Bansal once delivered a passionate lecture on corruption during a civil services mock interview.

Now, he is accused of seeking and receiving ₹1 crore to settle a cyber fraud case.

Recent podcast of @elonmusk with @zannymb exposed lies of @TheEconomist

[Suhag A. Shukla @SuhagAShukla]

For India, @TheEconomist opines that Sharia law should be enforced alongside any Indian uniform civil codes.

For the UK, @TheEconomist opines that enforcing Sharia law alongside any British uniform civil codes "poses problems."

Rules for thee, but not for me? 🤔

Everyone wants the privilege of holding Cabinet-rank or District Minister responsibilities, but when it comes to the basic duty of hoisting the National Flag on Independence Day, Minister Zameer Ahmed Khan reportedly cites “personal inconvenience.”

[Sandhya Ravishankar @sandhyaravishan]

I cannot emphasise this enough. God bless PM @narendramodi ji for not allowing Moderna & Pfizer mRNA vaccines into India during the Covid years.

@PMOIndia has LITERALLY saved thousands, maybe millions, of lives by this one decision.

I'm generally not effusive about anyone unless I know them personally for years. I don't know the PM at all, never met him,have absolutely no connects to him.

But as I read more and more, I am convinced we had a leadership that took the right decisions for us as a nation.

Serious hat tip, sir. And thank you for your service to the nation.

On the night of 11th and 12th August 2020, Bengaluru witnessed the KG Halli–DJ Halli riots. Police personnel’s were attacked, MLA house was set on fire, police stations were burnt, and public property was destroyed.

Sadly, the safety of our police seemed to matter to few. I had to approach the Karnataka High Court seeking an NIA investigation. The subsequent probe by NIA exposed the larger network, and firm action by the NIA helped strengthen Bengaluru’s security.

Five years later, we must never forget what happened or allow such violence to be repeated.

The students protesting in Jharkhand's Ranchi against irregularities in the JPSC and JSSC recruitment examinations are sitting out in the rain with nothing more than four umbrellas for shelter.

There is no stage, no waterproof setup, and no medical team checking on their health every hour. It's not as if they protest during the day and then return to a hotel at night to rest comfortably. They have been staying at the protest site itself with almost no facilities.

There is no PR machinery behind them, no well-funded campaign to emotionally manipulate people or shape the public narrative. Perhaps this is also why they are receiving so little media coverage, why their voices are going unheard, and why no one from Jharkhand Govt seems willing to come forward and engage with them.

Malayalam cinema is all about:

- Muslim directors portraying Christianity and Hinduism negatively,

- Christian directors portraying Islam and Hinduism negatively, and

- Hindu directors portraying Hinduism negatively.

Missionary–Church nexus shut down a copper plant, turning India from a copper exporter into an importer.

The same nexus obstructed a nuclear power project and even tried to sabotage Vizhinjam Port.

Now this lobby is rattled over proposed FCRA bill.

British Empire did pass the Slave Trade Act (1807) & Slavery Abolition Act (1833), framing Britain primarily as the "ender of slavery"...but a few fun facts:

- When the British Parliament passed the Slavery Abolition Act 1833, it compensated the slave owners, not the freed individuals (£20 Million Payout)

- The British govt borrowed £20 million to compensate 46K British slave owners for loss of "property". This amounted to 40% of the British govt's entire annual budget at the time. But they did not bother much because anyway during that time they were busy looting India.

- The loan raised by the Treasury to pay off slave owners was so vast that British taxpayers were still paying off the interest until 2015.

Taslima Nasreen was driven out of Kolkata in 2007 after Islamist mobs targeted her over Dwikhondito.

Yet, on her return, The Indian Express chose to frame the story around "Hindu majoritarianism" instead of the radicalism that forced her into exile.

Here's why critics say the article sanitised Islamist violence while casting Hindus as the villains.

Afrid and Zabi, who were caught selling ganja and handed over to the police by villagers.

According to this officer 👇 they are now "Absconding".

When questioned about it, instead of answering, he lashes out at the villagers.

Prisoners escape from the Central Jail. Ganja peddlers escape from police custody. Illegal Bangla muslims get away from the police.

Are we really supposed to believe all of this is just negligence and carelessness? Or is it deliberate? Which ayogya is giving these instructions?
