@svdate Any plans of coming to India with the same question?
Oh.... but hold on - we don't have open Press meets, QnAs etc..
It's scripted and orchastrated monologues... at best!@PMOIndia
@narendramodi
Yes...yes, Its a democracy too...on paper at least, so far!!
Agree. Absolutely!
Why should we get agitated if Western countries don’t want more immigrants? Or if they want to stop Indians from entering their countries illegally?
I really couldn’t give a damn how many employment or residency visas the US hands out
My priority is Indians in India not Indians who want to leave India
99% of the harm is in our minds, from our own thoughts. Only 1% comes from reality and outcomes. Often, the real problem isn’t the issue itself but how we think about it. #MindsetMatters

Lal Bahadur Shastri in Dhoti atop a captured Patton Tank/1965 Indo-Pak war.
Besides war glory, this war also defined the 'Idea of India' against the 'Communal Pak'.
Shastriji was a bit angry that day with a BBC report. It was the day after the ceasefire. Addressing a public meeting in Ram Leela Maidan he first took the issue expressing his displeasure.
But what was in that report that made a humble person like Shastriji so dejected?
The BBC report claimed that "Since India' s Prime Minister Lal Bahadur Shastri is a Hindu, he is ready for war with Pakistan".
So - Shastriji ko Gussa aa gaya. 🤨
Addressing the foreign media he said
listen "while I am a Hindu, Mir Mustaq who is presiding over this meeting is a Muslim. Mr Frank Anthony who addresssed you is a Christian. There are also Sikhs and Parsis here.
The unique thing about our country is that we have Hindus, Muslims, Christians, Sikhs, Parsis & people of all other religions.
We have Temples and mosques, Gurdwaras and Churches. But we do not bring this into politics........ This is the difference between India and Pakistan. Where as Pakistan proclaims herself to be an Islamic state and uses religion as political factor, we Indians have the freedom to follow whatever religion we choose [and] worship in any way we please.
So far as politics is concerned each of us is as much an Indian as the other".
(Speech reproduced in D. R. Mankekar, Lal Bahadur : A political Biography).
*IDEA OF INDIA
However unlike agnostic Pt. Nehru Shastriji was a practicing Hindu, very religious. But after becoming PM when he was asked by an interviewer to speak about his faith in the '𝑰𝒍𝒍𝒖𝒔𝒕𝒓𝒂𝒕𝒆𝒅 𝑾𝒆𝒆𝒌𝒍𝒚 𝒐𝒇 𝑰𝒏𝒅𝒊𝒂' 18th October, 1964 he answered
"One should not discuss one's religion in public". 🙂
This was the man Lal Bahadur Shastri unlike an OBC politician today who in chair acts like the household Brahmin priest.
Nonetheless Shastriji's speech in Ram Leela Maidan was not any flattery. Let me produce a short highlight from the uncountable incidents in that 1965 War that represented the United people of India like never before post Independence.
At the time when the Pakistani communal state used religious idiom of brotherhood with Kashmiri Muslims, war on behalf of them the Kashmiris unitedly detested their approach. The local Kashmiri population was apathetic towards them. Some intruders were caught by them and handed over to the police.
[J&K Chief Sec letter, Aug 1965 Nayantara Sehgal & E.N. Mangat Rai].
Many Kashmiris stood with the Army against fight with intruders.
As the communal Pak force chanted slogan 'Has ke liya hai Pakistan
Ladh ke lenge Hindustan'.
All across India Muslim writers, columnists, intellectuals publushed writings addressing Ayub Khan rejecting the communal Pak absolutely with harsh words sometimes abuses.
Across India there was no communal incident. In the South the linguistic protest against Hindi was paused.
What more, ironically another Ayub Khan who was in Indian Army from Rajasthan knocked out a couple of Pakistani Tanks. As Naib Risaldar, he was honoured with the Vir Chakra for his gallantry in the Sialkot sector.
Finally How can I miss Abdul Hamid, son of a Tailor from Uttar Pradesh who with with his RCL gun did no less than a miracle? On 10 Sept when in his battalion only four Granadiers left, in open jeep, vulnerable to the shelling he destroyed four Pak advanced Tanks.
Before facing the Last Tank he ordered his men to take cover. When the Tank spotted his jeep being alone he couldn't change his position and fired at the Tank and vice versa. He died on spot.
This martyred soldier, Abdul Hamid, the Pride of Uttar Pradesh won India's highest Military Honour Param Vir Chakra.
*IDEA OF INDIA
This was Lal Bahadur Shastri's India. Repeat there was not a single communal incident during this War as it was 'Jai Jawan Jai Kissan' India, United India where a soldier is a farmer in 'Uniform'.
It was not Today's COMMUNAL INDIA. 🙏🏾
.@dhruv_rathee has exposed how Malpua IT Cell members and sanghis brainwashes people using Godi Media & WhatsApp against Muslims.
He also fact checked Modi & BJP lies against the Congress Manifesto.
It is one of the most powerful videos of Dhruv Rathee so far. Fabulous. Eye-opener.

🚨BRAINWASH ALERT🚨
BJP has nothing left to offer to people so they are trying hard to scare us Indians by spreading multiple fake news -
❌Congress will implement Sharia Law - CM Adiyanath
❌ Congress will redistribute your wealth to minorities - PM Modi
❌ Congress will bring inheritance tax - HM Amit Shah
*All these claims are 100% fake.*
BJP’s top leadership is not just trying to confuse or distract you anymore—they are straight-up LYING to you. Congress manifesto mentions none of this. Lets have a look at what Congress Manifesto actually promises us-
✅Congress will provide jobs by filling up 30 lakh vacancies in govt posts. (Page 30 of Manifesto)
✅Congress will not increase any tax on middle class throughout its term (Page 31 of Manifesto)
✅Congress will support small businesses so all the nation’s resources don’t get sold to billionaires like Adani (Page 28 of Manifesto)
You can read the manifesto yourself and check it. It is in fact Modi’s policies like Electoral Bonds which have stolen the wealth from people of India and given it to billionaires. That’s why you will not find any similar promise in BJP’s manifesto.
Do not get BRAINWASHED

@narendramodi Really........!!
Are you a prime minister or a social media addict?
You are promoting a TV show, A YouTube channel.
Like, share, subscribe business of yours is 🤔😱🤐
What next ????
Totally shaken by the SC ordered Electoral bonds expose, Modi has lost the plot & is desperately flailing around. Having got used to ‘Modi’s wish is the law’; the tough order of SC, quashing the bonds & ordering release of Bond data (which shows BJP taking bribes of 1000s of Crs), unsettled him enough to tweet in support of a pathetic letter by BJP lawyers seeking to pressure CJI to back off from tough orders. The arrest of Kejriwal & the increasingly aggressive acts of IT & ED against opposition shows his desperation to be seen in control. All this is enraging the people who will no doubt inflict a historic on the BJP
@narendramodi This Post has Unmasked you
It clearly shows , you are behind this

The Egoistic Salve is irritated as CJI didn't toe his line
And you are Frightened

And don't use the word " Bully "
