Earlier in trains, eunuchs would beg frequently. Nobody knew if they really were eunuchs or men behaving like eunuchs.
If someone refused to give them money, they’d threaten people by lifting their ghagra and making a scene.
That’s basically the CJP model
We did this
From counselling the victim to getting FIR to getting court order
Proud of this impact. Proud of my parivar
@BhaiPreetSingh@SanjeevSanskrit@sewanyaya@VikasNagwan@AdYogeshh - heroes
Dhanyawad to all supporters and backers. It’s our collective victory
Limit yourself to politicians who function under the burden of power.
I will fucking rip apart a filthy pig like you in disproportionate measure if you ever even think of taking me on - legally or otherwise.
Our ancestors won Ladakh, Western Tibet and Gilgit-Baltistan through sheer valour and through the very fighting spirit embodied in these swords and pagris. More than 50,000 lives were laid down in that campaign that has no parallel even today.
Our claims today in Ladakh against China and in PoL (Pakistan-occupied Ladakh) are rooted in that history, and in the courage of Dogra warriors who carried these swords and wore these pagris.
History may have been written unfairly, but history does not erase legacy.
One day, the glory of the Dogras will be remembered in its rightful place.
Jai Dogra. ⚔️
Jai Bharat 🇮🇳

दिल्ली उच्च न्यायालय ने आज मोदी एक्ट की धारा 18 और 18ए(2) के अंतर्गत वैधानिक रोक को देखते हुए मेरी अग्रिम जमानत याचिका को निरस्त कर दिया। हायकोर्ट का यह निर्णय अपनी जगह है, पर मैं इस से सम्मानपूर्वक असहमत हूँ।
साथ ही, यह भी स्पष्ट है कि न्यायालय ने कहा है कि इसकी टिप्पणियाँ केवल जमानत आवेदन तक सीमित हैं और मेरी आपराधिकता इससे सिद्ध नहीं हो जाती। इस निर्णय को सुप्रीम कोर्ट के समक्ष चुनौती दूँगा और आशा करता हूँ कि देश की न्यायिक व्यवस्था में सर्वोच्च विश्वास बना रहे।
मुझे एक नीच, अधम, पतित ट्रोल के विरुद्ध अपने परिवार के सम्मान की रक्षा करने के लिए, इस घटिया और दमनकारी मोदी एक्ट (जिसे SC/ST एक्ट भी कहा जाता है) के प्रावधानों के तहत एक आपराधिक मामले में झूठा फँसाया गया है।
मैंने ऐसा कुछ नहीं कहा है जो किसी व्यक्ति या समुदाय का जाति के आधार पर जानबूझकर अपमान या अपमानजनक व्यवहार माना जा सके। मैं उन किसी भी निहित स्वार्थ वाली ताकतों से लड़ने के लिए तैयार हूँ जो इस देश में स्वतंत्र अभिव्यक्ति और सत्य कथन को दंडित करना चाहती हैं, भले ही इसके लिए मुझे जेल जाना पड़े।
एक नेता द्वारा अपनी राजनैतिक वोटबैंक को साधने के लिए, सामान्य जनता से बिना किसी सोच-विचार के, संशोधित किए गए इस पूरे कानून और इसके संशोधित नियमों का मैं तब तक विरोध करूँगा जब तक इसे पूरी तरह से निरस्त न किया जाए।
और हाँ, पुनः कहूँगा कि हमारी की माँ-बहनें सड़कों पर चलती-फिरती वस्तु नहीं है जिस पर कोई भी टिप्पणी करे और बच जाए। उनके सम्मान की रक्षा हेतु, सौ बार जेल जाना पड़े जाऊँगा और 101वीं बार वही करूँगा जो मैंने किया है।
PS: जो भी इस निरस्तीकरण पर स्खलित हो रहे हैं, तुम्हारी माँ-बहन पर भी हर दिन ऐसी टिप्पणी होती है। उस पर भी मैं ही स्टैंड लूँगा क्योंकि तुम अपनी कायरता में दो शब्द नहीं लिख पाओगे।
आज गालियाँ दे रहे हो- कल जेल में बैठकर पछताओगे कि
जब SC/ST एक्ट के दुरुपयोग के खिलाफ आवाज़ उठी, तब प्रीत सिरोही के साथ क्यों नहीं खड़े हुए।
Stand against SC/ST Act misuse. RETWEET.
The CCTV footage of Prof Doolla catching Sahil Wakode with a mobile phone in exam hall is out.
Now Sahil’s father should file an Atrocities Act case against the inventor of CCTV, the company that manufactured it, the mechanic who installed it and the officials who leaked it, for causing him the mental agony of being denied victimhood and the potential compensation that comes with it.
How? By filing cases under the "Atrocious" Act against erudite professors in premier institutions for preventing "young talent" from cheating in examinations.
1. In 2006,the Sonia Gandhi-led UPA decided to strengthen the humanities depts in #IITs in order to introduce the Ambedkarite-Periyarite trojan within the IIT System.This trojan has been steroidally strengthened,not weakened,by the panoramic hyper Ambedkarism of NDA since 2014.
Dear @Javedakhtarjadu. I'm afraid your response is as boring and overloaded as your similes and metaphors. When countered with facts, you shift the goalpost, bring in the RSS, berate the right wing, take refuge in context, cushion the bigotry, and claim Kafirs were Colonialists not Hindus.
I know countering you again is like watering a cactus and praying for leechis, but in the hope that all that knee massaging with Doctor Ortho would have sprouted some neurons, here goes:
You asked for a source because you said the quote was “quite unlike” Azad’s “lifelong sociopolitical stances.” I gave you the source: Calcutta, 27 October 1914, published in Khutbat-e-Azad. The words are his. That should have ended the enquiry. It did not. So let us walk through your new script, line by line.
1. “The khutbats were about Khilafat and British colonialism.”
Yes. That is what I wrote. Maulana Azad was telling Indian Muslims that a Turk’s battlefield thorn must be felt in a Hindustani Muslim’s heart; that Millat-e-Islam is one body; that friendship and enmity are for the religion of Allah. Then he quoted Quran 48:29 and added his own gloss: be extremely hard against disbelievers, extremely kind among yourselves, and do not pass over this as if you had not heard it. You asked for the when and where. You received both. “It was about Khilafat” is not a rebuttal. It is the context in which he said it.
2. “To claim he was quoting this about the Hindus of India will not be true. The Kafir here was the colonialist.”
I did not say the 1914 speech was a municipal circular against the Hindus of Howrah. I quoted what Azad quoted: a Quranic verse about kuffar, and his commentary on unbelief, Tawhid, and hardness toward disbelievers. If Azad had meant “kafir = only the British officer,” he knew Urdu enough to say Angrez. He did not. He used the Book’s word, then told his flock not to skip it.
And if “kafir” in Azad’s mouth was a temporary colonial nickname, kindly explain the 1920 Hijrat fatwa, published in Ahl-e-Hadith of Amritsar, in which he said Indian Muslims had no choice but to migrate, and that those who stayed and kept connection with “the enemy of Islam” would themselves be counted as the enemy of Islam. That is not a lecture on income-tax collectors. That is a theology of the land.
3. “When Ataturk took over, Azad called it a closed chapter and condoned the secular government.”
Men change. Texts do not. If later Azad made peace with the death of the Caliphate, good for the later Azad. It does not unsay 1914, nor the Khilafat years, nor Masala-e-Khilafat, nor the call that any government hostile to Turkey was hostile to Islam, not the belief in the Quranic verse damning the Kafirs. You began by saying the paragraph was unlike his lifelong stances. Lifelong includes the years he spent as a pan-Islamist firebrand. Evolution is not an eraser. It is a timeline.
4. “Read his Calcutta High Court statement. An honour no member of the Mahasabha or RSS was ever given.”
Sedition charges from the Raj are not a unique family heirloom. Tilak got them. Aurobindo got them. Savarkar was given two life terms and sent to Cellular Jail, where the honour included the oil mill, the lash, and years in a cell the size of a cupboard.
And of course, knowing your pitiful knowledge of Indian History, I guess you would not know legendary RSS names like Devipad Chaudhary, Jagatpati Kumar, Anna Saheb Deshpande, Ramakant Keshav, Vasantrao Oak, Narayan Singh, Chandrakant Bhardwaj, Dada Naik Chimur, Baburao Begade, Lala Hansraj, Balaji Raipurkar who participated in our freedom struggle and were jailed or shot.
5. “Azad was in British jails for nine years. Name one from your right wing who can match that.”
Vinayak Damodar Savarkar: roughly a decade in Kala Pani, further years in mainland jails, then thirteen years of internment in Ratnagiri. Sentence on paper: fifty years. Conditions: not Ahmednagar Fort with time to write Ghubar-e-Khatir.
By the way, you might know that your great-great-grandfather Fazl-e-Haq Khairabadi was also incarcerated at Kala Pani. What you might not know, or would want to hide, is that he wrote a grovelling mercy petition to the British, pleading to be released.
6. “In 1946 Jinnah refused to shake Azad’s hand. He hated Azad for his patriotism.”
How does this turn “be severe against the kafirs, merciful among themselves” into a sonnet about communal harmony? A man can spend 1946 refusing Partition and still have spent 1914 telling Indian Muslims that their first body is the ummah. Fairness is holding both pages open. What you are doing is hiding the 1914 page and waving the 1946 one like a flag.
7. “Your reference to Rahul Gandhi was unnecessary, I expect decency and class.”
And I expected you to have some sense of humour. The PS was a reminder that this is the second time I have had to fetch your hero’s paperwork. Last time it was Nehru’s India: books banned, editors sacked, films blocked, Majrooh jailed for a couplet.
You lecture me on class after moving from “this cannot be Azad” to “it is Azad but you must read kafir as colonialist” to “anyway he went to jail” to “Jinnah was rude to him” to “please don’t mention Rahul.” That is not class. That is a guided tour of every exit except the text.
Look, Javed sahab, let us end this here. I like you. Doubtless a lot of your work is incredible, truly it is. So in that spirit, permit me to pen an ode to you:
Javed Akhtar ko dekha toh aisa laga, jaise chhal ka nawab, jaise jhoot ki kitaab, jaise dhong ki kiran, jaise adambar ka van, jaise kapton ki baat, jaise pakhand ki raat, jaise janpath mein ho ek jalta diya.
Alvida, Shabba khair. WDTP
1. Strongest possible terms.
2. Dastardly.
3. Heinous.
4. Outrageous.
5. Unforgivable.
Pakistan has fired so many ballistic missiles at those who attempted to attack Mecca. Houthis mein darr ka mahaul hai.
MDR on UPI will apply from Oct 15 onwards, but he made a video yesterday to argue against it.
MDR will apply to transactions above ₹2,000, but he bought a 30-rupee ice cream to claim that there will be no MDR on such transections, something people already know.
The ice cream vendor is a merchant in this case (as seen on his QR code at the 9-second mark), but he is calling it a P2P transaction.
There is going to be MDR on P2M transactions above ₹2,000. That's a fact. You don't need to create a gimmick video to make an argument against that.
The real issue people are angry about is that this cost will trickle down to consumers. That's common sense. That happens all the time. So the real test will be regular people sharing their experiences after Oct 15 on P2M transections above ₹2,000, and certainly not big-brained party spokespersons like Pradeep Bhandari, who can always tie up with businesses to make them say they'll pay the MDR while filming their video.
Also, I'm sure some people will twist my argument by claiming I'm supporting the Congress narrative. No, I'm just expressing my concern. If Congress is raising the same concern, that's not on me. Congress is a curse to India, and Rahul Gandhi becoming the PM of India would be devastating for the country. There, I said it again.
Dear Mr Javed Akhtar. Alhamdulillah. The quote is from Maulana Azad's Calcutta Speech. The speech was published in Khutbat-e-Azad. Here is the link: https://t.co/yXkvYTTW1j
The Maulana is exhorting the Indian Muslims to unite with Muslims around the world and save the Caliphate. He begins by stating that all relationships in the world can break down, father can turn against son, brother against brother, mother can shun her child but the relationship of a Muslim with a Muslim can never be severed.
The Maulana then continues: if even a grain of the soul of Islam is still alive in its followers, then if a thorn enters the foot of a Turk on the field of battle, I swear by Allah that no Muslim of Hindustan is a Muslim until he feels that prick in his own heart. For the Millat of Islam is one body, and Muslims, wherever they are, are its limbs. If a finger of the hand is cut, the rest of the body cannot remain at peace until it has felt the blow. This is not rhetoric. It is the plain meaning of the well-known hadith which Imam Ahmad related: the Messenger of God, peace and blessings be upon him, said that the likeness of the believers in their mutual love, mercy and compassion is that of one body: when one limb complains, the whole body responds with sleeplessness and fever. And there is the other hadith, related by Abu Musa al-Ash‘ari: The believer to the believer is like a building; each part supports the other. This is the first and last distinguishing mark of the people of Islam, to which the Qur’an itself has pointed.
Then, to reinforce Muslim unity, Maulana Azad provides his commentary after quoting the Quranic verse 48: 29.
The Messenger of Allah and those with him are severe against the Kafirs, merciful among themselves.
Whatever hardness they have is for falsehood and unbelief; whatever love and tenderness they have is for truth, sincerity, Islam and Tawhid. So be extremely hard against disbelievers but extremely sympathetic and kind among ourselves; take heed, then, and do not pass over this as if you had not heard it.
P.S. This is the second time I am enlightening you on your heroes and their lifelong sociopolitical stances. The first time was when you refused to believe that books were banned, editors sacked, films blocked, and Majrooh jailed, under Nehru's rule. Please don't ask me about Gandhi next - the Mahatma, not Rahul, though both are probably your heroes. Cheers, WDTP
