![sreejit_d's tweet photo. Here's the other true story about Rash Behari Bose that is stranger than fiction - and definitely stuff of movies (probably a romantic thriller):
Rash Behari arrived in Japan in 1915 to avoid arrest & continue with his revolutionary nationalist activities by widening the network still. But, in Japan too, he was a fugitive. The British police had let agents loose to pursue him. Their goal was to abduct Rash Behari & somehow get him into the British Embassy in Japan, so that he can be arrested & deported from there.
Rash Behari was being desperately hunted by the British for his key role in the failed Ghadar conspiracy, and for masterminding the bomb attack on Viceroy Hardinge in Delhi.
In June 1915, Rash Behari had adopted the alias of P.N. Tagore, styling himself as a relative of the poet Rabindranath Tagore, and shipped himself to Japan. It is likely that Tagore had helped him in this daring act using his influence as a globally acclaimed Nobel Laureate poet at the time.
Rash Behari had to take utmost caution once he reached in Japan. He didn't know the language, the streets were unfamiliar & complex. The only silver lining was that Japan, a rising anti-Western-imperialist nation, with many Japanese being sympathetic to the cause of India's political freedom, would offer him refuge - although a fragile one - where his survival depended solely on his own genius & the trust of the Japanese people.
Somewhat unexpectedly, Rash Behari earned the trust of Aizo Soma, owner of a then modest but culturally vibrant bakery-cum-restaurant called "Nakamuraya" ("Ya" stands for restaurant), located in the suburbs of Tokyo. The Somas were not ordinary restaurateurs. They patronised art, nationalist politicians, and Pan-Asianism.
When Rash Behari & his fellow revolutionary nationalist fugitive Herambalal Gupta were introduced to the Somas, they courageously took the Indians in, hid them from British agents, and sheltered them within the safety & warmth of their home & restaurant, despite a high risk of inviting trouble for themselves & their fledgling business.
At Nakamuraya, Rash Behari engaged with Japanese nationalist intellectuals on exciting conversations on art, politics, & the future of Asia, mainly with the help of Toshiko Soma, Aizo’s daughter, who spoke fluent English. Toshiko recently had a heartbreak, and was visiting her home during a study break from college. We don't know if it was love at first sight for Rash Behari & Toshiko, but learning each other's tongue definitely played a role. Toshiko helped him learn Japanese. They ended up embracing each other's ideals & political cause.
In time, Rash Behari's patron & influential Japanese nationalist leader Toyama Mitsuru proposed to the Somas that they offer their daughter to Rash Behari in marriage. With trepidation (because it would be a difficult life for their daughter), they consented. Their marriage took place secretly in 1918. It was both deeply personal & symbolic of Indo-Japan nationalist collaboration, bridging the two ancient nations through real human bond.
Meanwhile, Rash Behari introduced the Somas to Indian curry, but not as a straightforward exotic recipe. He improvised it for Japanese taste buds. The dish was carefully adapted, refined in the Nakamuraya kitchen, blending Indian culinary philosophy & Japanese sensibilities.
The Nakamuraya Curry became an instant hit as soon as it was introduced to the public. Tokyo hadn't tasted anything like it. The dish became immensely popular, not just as a novelty, but as a symbol of friendship, resilience, & the blending of two worlds.
Thus, in a quiet Tokyo suburb, amid political turmoil & personal transformation, Rash Behari Bose not only found refuge & love, but also left behind a legacy that endured in the most unexpected way: Through a plate of curry that told a story of two nations forging unbreakable bonds of friendship, freedom struggle, and love.

@mariawirth1 The method is ancient. From Delilah. But the takeover of dating/matchmaking is recent.
The ans to the question is pretty obvious, isn’t it? He needs to produce viral soundbytes for bhakts to share and maintain his relevance in the ministry. Lest people do a real audit of MEA’s dismal performance since Trump’s 2nd coming.
Question: why keep going to these 30-40 people in the audience events, where knowledge of global politics is so abysmally low, that you have to ask the same question, that has already been asked and answered 100 times before?
@aswin_kichuz @NalinisKitchen That's not a mic. That's the button with which you invoke AI generation. 🙃
I buy the story. What I can't buy is the person, who was conveniently there to take pics, not walking the girl home n creating Social media content instead. One of the objectives is true? To me it seems more likely the social media content. Else the bike rider would have helmets?
A girl was walking home at night. Her house was only 250 meters away, but she still booked a ride.
Driver: Why did you book a ride? It shows only 250 meters.
Girl: Some boys are standing ahead. They make dirty comments and are often drunk. Please drop me home.
The driver moved his bag from the front to the back side and asked her to sit. He safely dropped her at her home.
Driver: ₹24.
Girl: Paid. Can I ask you something? When I was about to sit, why did you move your bag from the front to the back?
Driver: Aise hi.
This is called being a gentleman. Because of some people, you feel fear. Because of some people, you feel safe.

@kallol68 @Ananth_IRAS It was also a mode of conveyance for dacoits.
@daeroplate_v2 @BLACKTIGER0412 Based on what I saw at the last aero-India, the basic missile would be 200-250 range at most optimised release, carrying the Akash NG class warhead. Most likely dual pulse. The two boosters adding the add on ranges.
@daeroplate_v2 @BLACKTIGER0412 My bad. Yes it is. I noticed tht after I had replied. But, I maintain the bent of my observation. The Kusha system seems to follow the Israeli philosophy of attaching booster to essentially air to air missile, while Russians are working on the first and 2nd stage as a single unit
@daeroplate_v2 @BLACKTIGER0412 …and different boosters to provide it different releasing altitude and range.
@daeroplate_v2 @BLACKTIGER0412 They might be operating on different philosophies. While 40n6 is a single stage missile with higher payload, the complete Kusha system seems to be larger version of Akash NG, with performance closer to Astra 2, carrying a fixed & lighter payload in comparison to 40n6…
Mega seizure of Aadhaar cards from Bidhannagar TMC office in Bengal. Hundreds of cards seized. This is how it works:
1. Illegal Bangladeshi intruder and his family cross the border and are welcomed by TMC politicians.
2. They are taken to Kolkata and told they must vote only for TMC candidates if they want to live in India.
3. The illegal Bangladeshis and their families are given residential papers from the ward. Attestation from a local councillor is all that is required to apply for Aadhaar.
3. After the attestation is done, the Aadhaar application is sent through the local Aadhaar office.
4. After 3 days to 2 weeks, the Aadhaar card arrives. That is used to apply for central and state Govt schemes such as free BPL rations, free home, free medicines, free medical insurance, minority scholarships, free grants for students, childbirth bonus which is the icing on the cake because who can produce unlimited children more than them.
5. Before the TMC, it was the communist CPM that institutionalised this illegal immigration. Millions of Bangladeshis (some estimates put the number at 20 million) were actively brought over to transform constituencies into sure-seats for the CPM - that's how they remained in power for 34 unbroken years.
6. Jyoti Basu was the biggest culprit - under him the CPM Govt drove away genuine Hindu and tribal refugees from Bengal because they didn't want Hindu voters. They only wanted Muslim immigrants. The criminal gerrymandering of Bengal was partly reversed via SIR by Amit Shah and the CEC with great difficulty.
7. Bengal was so messed up that it seemed an impossible task to delete Bangladeshi illegals from the state electoral rolls. I don't believe in divine intervention but some force in the universe helped Bengal defeat the Jehadi-Marxist nexus.

A mulher que construiu o ChatGPT saiu da OpenAI, ficou em silêncio por um ano, e o que ela acabou de lançar pode mudar pra sempre como você usa IA no dia a dia.
Mira Murati não fundou mais um chatbot. Ela foi atrás do problema que nenhum lab quis resolver: toda IA que existe hoje funciona por turnos. Você digita, espera. O modelo responde, espera. É tentar resolver uma crise por e-mail quando você poderia estar na mesma sala que a pessoa.
O que a Thinking Machines lançou hoje acaba com isso.
O modelo ouve, vê, fala, pensa e age ao mesmo tempo. Não é um pipeline costurado de componentes. É o modelo em si que foi treinado do zero pra funcionar assim.
→ Latência de 0,40s por turno. O padrão da indústria é 1 a 2 segundos.
→ Micro-turnos de 200ms intercalando input e output sem parar
→ Faz busca, usa ferramentas e gera interface enquanto conversa com você
→ Percebe quando você hesita e intervém antes de você pedir
→ Tradução simultânea em tempo real com as duas partes falando
A equipe: Mira Murati como CEO (ex-CTO da OpenAI), Soumith Chintala como CTO (criador do PyTorch), e contratações recentes da Meta em percepção multimodal.
O ponto técnico que vale gravar: eles citam o "bitter lesson" do Rich Sutton. Interatividade construída por componente externo sempre vai perder pra interatividade nativa ao modelo. Escalar o modelo o torna mais inteligente e mais colaborativo ao mesmo tempo.
822 mil visualizações em 4 horas. a16z comentando. Brasil dormindo.
Toda IA que você usa hoje vai parecer e-mail dentro de dois anos. E quem largou na frente dessa corrida não foi OpenAI, Google nem Anthropic.
Foi a empresa da mulher que eles deixaram sair.
Himanta biswa sharma deposited 9000₹ to 40L mahila voters before elections.
Mamta banerjee depositing 1500₹ to mahila & garib voters in Bengal.
Does our vote even count? In this democracy, our roles are pay tax & give vote. I am not voting anymore.
This is more fable than historical. The genetics of the Kalash exhibit strong affinities with ancient North Eurasians and Paleolithic Siberian hunter-gatherers, suggesting they are descendants of early West Asian migrants rather than modern Europeans or recent Greek invaders.
There are tribes living under the Himalayas that claim to be descendants of Greeks! How is that possible?
It's the Kalash, an ethnic group living in remote valleys of the Hindu Kush.
They are unique due to their distinct culture, language, and religion. Here's the story..🧵⤵️
Dear World,
This is Manipur today at 10 pm IST (18th April 2026). We are facing war like situation since 2023. And international community & India failed to address the Manipur Crisis. Over 200 people killed, over 60,000 people lost their homes. Manipur deserves justice now. 😢🙏
An ISRO scientist, Praveen Maurya, claimed that someone from inside was leaking data related to BrahMos.
He said they approached him.
He refused.
They started threatening him.
Then suddenly POCSO and NDPS cases were filed on him.
He called it a setup to silence him.
He lost his job.
Fought alone. No outrage. No support.
He even approached the courts
alleging there was a conspiracy against him. He was about to win the case .
Now they are trying to declare him MAD .
ISRO is trying to declare him MAD.
And still no clear answers.
If even part of this is true then the real question is…..
Are we safe? Or is something much bigger being hidden?
