Go to Pakistan to meet millions of Gill, Brar, Bajwa, Sidhu, Sandhu, Virk, Chhina, Maan, Dhillon, Baryar, Khalon, Malhi...type sunni muslims
Then try to find a Sharma, Verma, Aggarwal, Sabharwal, Gupta, Bhalla
Jatt Sikhs converted en masse in '47 purely for saving their land & this explains the camaraderie they share with Pakistani Sunni Muslims till date

Mahrang Baloch fought for her disappeared father - now she faces life in a Pakistani jail. Respect for Mahrang Baloch. Shame on coward Asim Munir and his coward gang. https://t.co/xL88KwMyUp
Do you know that a sting operation by a leading newspaper recently revealed a racket in villages near Nepal border where every new migrant was being invited to a pastor’s “prayer meeting”?
The first condition for Hindus was to remove tilak, kalawa, mala because they “interfere with prayers to Yeshu” - all captured on camera
Our @RashtraJyoti@sewanyaya teams are educating the most vulnerable colonies about faith-healing conversion traps
We are exposing the tactics used by these rackets, getting the culprits booked under relevant laws, educating people about them
This is the beginning of end of their free run
Maharishi Sushruta had identified mosquitoes as the cause of malaria as far back as 1500 BCE.
For the next 3300 years, the West thought that malaria was caused by bad smells (mala aria).
@DivaJain2 It will now be used as a reliable reference by Wikipedia to support the idea that Indians, after thousands of years of civilisation, somehow never thought of building a garden till Babur came and taught is.
Hearty congrats to the Indian Women’s team for winning the 8 country FIH Nations Cup. Very decent opposition overall - NZ, Korea, Japan, USA, Chile, France etc.
Credit to @SjoerdMarijne for getting the team back on track after the chaos of the recent pass. So happy for the team

📸 This photo was taken in 1903, at the height of British colonialism in the Indian subcontinent. This isn't just a picture…
it's a slap in the face to all those who sing the praises of "Western civilization." This is the true face of colonialism, which they still try to beautify in history books.
It's slavery and the humiliation of human beings, the crushing of human dignity, simply because they don't belong to the white race! And then they ask you about terrorism…
The history of Western colonialism is full of massacres, slavery, plunder, and starvation… But they reduce terrorism to oppressed peoples struggling for their dignity! 🩸
The effects of what British colonialism did in India—the killing, starvation, plunder, and contempt for humanity—are still evident today. Millions
were killed, wealth was stolen, and generations were displaced… all under the banner of a false "enlightenment"!
40 years in shipping gave me one unusual qualification as a historian: I had no academic orthodoxies to protect.
When I began researching the history of maritime trade, I followed the sea lanes backwards into deep antiquity. Without exception, they converged on the Indian subcontinent. This was not the book I had intended to write.
I must give credit to my editor, who gave an unknown author with a controversial approach, an opportunity. His first attempts to find peer reviewers encountered significant resistance. The argument that India sat at the centre of ancient world trade, not its periphery, was considered, to put it gently, inconvenient.
What I found, and what I could not stop finding, is that placing India at the centre of world history does not simply revise one chapter. It cascades. Correct the starting assumption and you are forced to reconsider the origins of mathematics, medicine, philosophy, linguistics, religion. Each conclusion leads to another. I came to call these the collateral heresies.
My three books explain the architecture of how they connect.
If you work in a field where received wisdom is protected by institutional interest rather than evidence, you will recognise the pattern. The question is whether the evidence eventually wins.
@Mrsinha How many times have you or your friends played football? Those countries have people playing since they were three years old, every single year.
