धर्म का मतलब जिंदगी जीने का ढंग होना, करुणा होना, विनम्रता होना, मन में हजारों सवाल होना।

धर्म का मतलब जुल्म और क्रूरता का ना होना और प्रेम से बढ़ कर कुछ ना होना।

धर्म का मतलब है इंसान होना।

और कोई बताए तुम्हे कि धर्म का मतलब किसी परंपरा, लिबास, वेशभूषा का बंधन या पहचान होना- उसी दिन त्याग देना उस धर्म को क्योंकि उससे बड़ा अधर्म नहीं जो बाँट दे इस दुनिया को और छीन ले इंसान से उसका इंसान होना।

A US citizen & 2 Ukrainians charged with terrorism under UAPA were “allowed to go home” last week. NIA did not even object to it.

But Umar & Sharjeel keep getting their bail denied even after 6 years in custody without trial.

White people have more rights - in their own country as well as in Modi’s India. We are in our 2nd age of colonization.

last year, ECI replaced the machine readable data by scanned copies, resulting in an 8x load on the servers. resulting in more tax money to maintain online resources.

and obviously no way to find duplicates.

the ECI should be tried for treason

Days after the ECI appeared to dismiss Indian Express the report on the rift within, its latest statement has now addressed — and, in several instances, acted on — many of the very concerns raised by the dissenting Commissioners.

Important for public information!

I would like to update that the third paper on cow research, funded using India's public money under the SUTRA-PIC (Scientific Utilization through Research Augmentation - Prime Products from Indigenous Cows program) has undergone exhaustive post-publication peer review.

The paper was published in Biochemical Engineering Journal this year. The authors are from Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Dhanbad (Jharkhand).

This is the paper:
https://t.co/9niHoCSvEO This study was done in Jharkhand and the total amount of public money given was INR 36,16,859/- (~38500 USD).

As per the study, the researchers transformed ordinary cow dung into a specialized carbon material that highly effectively soaks up toxic chromium pollution from water. Instead of throwing away this metal-filled waste, they successfully reused it to build a working, long-lasting energy storage device called a supercapacitor.

Well, they did not. They made it all up.

Here is a plain-language summary of the fatal flaws found in the paper:

🟡The authors claim their material successfully absorbed a massive amount of toxic chromium—roughly 22% of its total weight. However, their own chemical scan shows the final product contains almost zero chromium (0.09%), making their main conclusion physically impossible.

🟡After testing this material in a battery setup that contains absolutely zero chromium, the reported amount of chromium inside the material mysteriously multiplied by 47 times (from 0.09% to 4.24%). Elements cannot spontaneously generate out of thin air, which strongly indicates the data was fabricated.

🟡The fundamental thermodynamic math used to prove how the material captures pollutants is entirely broken. The reported numbers for energy, heat, and entropy literally do not equal each other when plugged into standard physics equations, heavily suggesting the results were manually made up.

🟡The paper claims hard statistical proof that one type of cow dung is superior to another, but the actual difference between them is a fraction of a percent and mathematically insignificant. Furthermore, the statistical "p-values" they reported are mathematically incorrect for the tests they claim to have run.

And one more point which requires professional image manipulation software for checking - which me or the helping team did not have access to)...

🟡The photos intended to show the physical "coated" battery electrodes appear to be digitally faked. The frayed edges and tape cuts match the uncoated metal so perfectly that it looks like solid black boxes were simply photoshopped over the original image (this is only a basic allegation, needs confirmation).

With this review, I am stopping further such analysis on these so-called cow-research science papers glorifying Indian tradition. These "researchers" and "scientists" should be ashamed of themselves. Real science requires truthful validation, not beggarly applause or promotions from the hands of the "agenda-driven" masters that feed you.

All three papers criticisms have been uploaded to Pub-Peer and official notifications sent to the respective journals and their research integrity teams. Two papers are already under investigation by respective journal.

The science community in India must fight tooth and nail to prevent AYUSH pseudoscience infiltration into their revered STEM institutions. This is not a good thing, moving forward.

People are asking why we withdrew our plea in the Supreme Court against prescrption of Homeopathy...for Covid-19 immunity.

This was not because we were threatened.
This was not because Ayush (Center or State) provided us proper evidence to shut us up.
This was not because Homeopathy works.

The response from the State and Center Ayush departments were idiotic, nauseating, ad-hominem and utterly rubbish, it was an insult to our intelligence.

We withdrew the case because we lost faith in the judiciary system and has understood that sometimes, justice is delayed, to deny it. This line of what happened during Covid-19 with Homeopathy just does not work anymore now, because we are way past it.

We worked hard to make this case, but the case was dragged on purposefully for years, the responses from the Center and State Governments came 3 years after we filed the petition and in between, a Homeopathy group from Kerala impleaded with the Center and State and, as a response, submitted an affidavit that was pure ad-hominem, to which responding was also beneath our status.

The case ultimately became "infructuous" as per legal terms - meaning unproductive, fruitless, or lacking any useful purpose or value - because it was for Covid-19 time and Covid-19 related interventions which the Court, at present, found no value in reasoning with. We were advised to start a fresh petition against the guidelines issued by Ayush - and not focus on what happened during Covid-19. We simply did not have the money or the legal power to do this afresh.

We feel horrible about this situation.
The question we asked Center and State was simple:
- why was arsenicum album homeopathy given on mass public scale even to children when there is no proof of studies and no evidence of safety?

The Ayush would say, it is safe, because there is nothing in it - so then why are they giving nothing?

Or they would claim arsenic in it is useful to boost immunity - so then why are you giving the king of poisons to children without evidence to show for boosting or safety?

Answering this core question would have thrown Homeopathy out of this country. But instead of getting to those answers quickly, delayed tactics, made us run on fumes and ultimately the case got cold.

But we dont want to stop. We want to start fresh a petition against Homeopathy use among children and for public health. We want the Government to stop funding Homeopathy. We need lawyers who can help us get this done with a fresh set of eyes and hands and want to push this as a Public Interest Litigation. We want citizens to pool in funds so that we can at least pay the people who will fight for us in the court.

So we are not backing out. We are taking a few steps back to gather energy and force to make sure the next cut, is the final cut.

We want to work on it...lay the strongest foundation and fight pseudoscience, not just through medical communication, but also through legal channels.

If you are a lawyer or a group of lawyers who want to take this up as a PIL, please email us: [email protected]

AMIT SHAH MUST RESIGN...
Today Ladakh commemorated the first anniversary of indiscriminate firing with AK 47 on unarmed youth that lead to the killing of 4+1, injury to 80+ & FIRs against 80+.
All without any firing order. Even after one year, the report of the Judicial Inquiry commission is suppressed & a paltry compensation of 15 lakh rupees for the dead & 3 lakhs for the severely injured has been announced. In this video I expose the root cause of the firing in Leh & also support Shri @RahulGandhi in his call #AmitShahMustResign for brutal firing with pallet guns at #JantarMantar.
Youth of Ladakh have always stood for the nation during all wars, it's time the nation stands for them.

First Gyanesh Chor’s daughter’s case is marked out of roster to junior Judge Sharma & second the audio of proceedings muted by Judge Sharma who grants her a stay! New lows everyday for India’s judiciary.

[Prashant Bhushan @pbhushan1]

Double relief for Gyanesh Kumar by the same SC judge! He first disagrees with Justice Dipankar Datta, who held that the law made by the Modi govt for selecting ECs by committee of the PM, other minister of his choice & the LoP was unconstitutional. He then passes this order to stay the outstanding judgement of Allahabad HC & give relief to Ganesh Kumar’s daughter!

There's been dissent in the Election Commission before.

In 2009, a CEC recommended a colleague's removal. In 2019, a Commissioner boycotted meetings until his dissent was recorded. Each time: one member, one issue, settled by a vote.

But this is different. Two of three, the majority, say they weren't told at all. And from May to August, the full Commission didn't meet once.

[Ritika Chopra @RitikaChopra__]

The dissonance within the EC came to a head in late July.

A new officer was put in charge of the EC's administration division in Delhi and, within hours, issued a work allocation order that potentially changed who controls the IT files. Neither of the two Commissioners were told. One asked for the file (on the change) and was REFUSED.

So the two did something no Election Commissioner had done before: each wrote separately to the country's top bureaucrat, Cabinet Secretary T V Somanathan, calling the order a "clear violation" of the law that governs the Commission.

The next day, they jointly struck it down.

Bengal.

The Supreme Court handed the state's SIR to judicial officers. They heard 60 lakh voters flagged for "logical discrepancies" and retained 33 lakh on the roll. Then lakh appeals were filed to get those voters (retained on the voters' list) deleted.

When the court asked the Commission to explain, Sandhu asked his OWN officers:

Has EC filed appeals against inclusion of voters?
Who authorised these?
Who filed them?

He didn't know. Joshi didn't know. Bengal's Chief Electoral Officer didn't know.

[Ritika Chopra @RitikaChopra__]

Form 6 is what you fill to become a voter. Only the Government can change it.

In July it got a new question: Were your parents on the last SIR roll? No answer, no registration.

Both Commissioners had said in May this couldn't be done without the Government amending the Registration of Electors Rules, 1960.

It was changed ANYWAY. Sandhu called it "unauthorised and ILLEGAL."

That question (in Form 6) is still there

The software.

In January the EC launched ECINet, "in strict accordance with the law," the CEC said from the stage.

Within months, both Election Commissioners Sukhbir Singh Sandhu and Vivek Joshi were writing that the platform was UNRAVELLING: local officers, who by law add and delete names, were being shut out, their access to the voters' list controlled by the IT division in Delhi.

They asked for an audit. No answer.

We spent months investigating the inner working of the EC.

What we found: the majority of the Commission, kept in the dark for almost a year.

Election Commissioners Sukhbir Singh Sandhu and Vivek Joshi objected on record at least 14 times in 10 months, FOUR times on a single day, to decisions taken in the Commission's name without their knowledge.

Here is what they flagged:

The Election Commission is three people, not ONE: a Chief and two Election Commissioners, equal in rank.

By law they decide together. Unanimously if they can, by majority if they can't. Two of three is a majority.
