Christian missionary NGOs. Foreign money. FCRA pressure from Marco Rubio. And a visit to India's most strategically sensitive border region. Connect these four things and tell me this is just about religious freedom.

These fellows just randomly pick up something to troll our Hon’ble PM, for instance a teleprompter, his suit, his Mont Blanc pen, Adani without having any knowledge about the thing and they feel so bloody happy about it ki jaise koi teer maar liya 😂😂😂 not realising that they look absolute idiots. Ajeet Bharti very aptly clears it all….😅

Europe spent decades avoiding difficult conversations on immigration, integration, and border security.

Today, Paris is living with the consequences.

Governments rarely win influence by speaking for themselves.
They win it through validators: journalists, experts, think tanks, analysts and opinion leaders.
The real question isn't who is talking.
It's who is shaping the conversation. #Geopolitics #Pakistan #ForeignPolicy

[Manaa @manukrati]

Pakistan has signed a multi-million dollar lobbying agreement in Washington. The bigger story isn't the contract. It's what influence means in modern geopolitics. Policy follows conversations. Conversations shape outcomes. #Pakistan #Washington #Geopolitics #ForeignPolicy

The South is now Congress’s main national battlefield.

And Rahul Gandhi appears more willing to override old comfort zones to protect it.

Every border gets secured. Every alliance gets audited. India is asking one question. What do you deliver when pressure arrives?

“As a Hindu, why are you praying in a church?”

I got asked this once.

And honestly, the question confused me.

Because as a Hindu, praying anywhere has never felt wrong to me.

When I walk past a church, I sometimes stop and say a quiet prayer.

There’s a Chinese temple near my home.

I bow my head there and light incense too.

I love visiting Gurudwaras.

They feel like a second home.

I read teachings from different religions because wisdom belongs to humanity, not one group.

That’s the beauty of Sanatan Dharma.

It never taught me to hate someone else’s path to love my own.

No “convert or suffer.”

Just karma, humanity and respect.

The older I grow, the more I feel this:

Faith should make your heart bigger, not smaller.

Jai Shri Ram 🙏

Today I was sent this Reddit post by a follower, about the jihadi terror spread by Jahangir Khan, Abhishek Banerjee’s henchman, in Falta-Diamond Harbour.

This is a first hand witness recount.
Do read it to understand the level of terror they had spread ~

‘People who live near or around Falta/Diamond Harbour know how it had been under Jahangir Khan. How many companies closed their units because of his extortion. Even PSUs like Indian oil and Bharat Petroleum weren't free. Every Hindu majority area had a M panchayat member. I'll be mentioning a few ~

1. Multiple Ramnavami rallies have been attacked. While you heard news from Howrah or Murshidabad, no news came out of this area.

2. Jahangir's close aide forcefully stopped multiple Rathyatras too.

3. They slowly sidelined majority of the Hindu leaders from this area. Situation was so bad that pandal or temple inaugurations were done by Muslim leaders.

4. In the 2024 election, Muslim leaders went to Hindu areas with guns and asked people not to vote.

5. Panchayat seats won by BJP have been taken away with the help of BDOs at gunpoint.

6. Kids of BJP leaders have been abducted.

7. I saw an incident where 2 Muslim guys were trying to control another drunk Muslim guy after the 2024- 7- lakh- margin win of TMC, who wanted to ‘take care of BJP supporters’.

8. Love jih*d became so rampant that it started feeling normal. Married and widowed Hindu women, no one was out of target.

9. People from our 2 neighbouring countries could easily enter and leave this area without any scrutiny.

10. A lawyer couple was ki!!ed openly for being RSS members.

I can go on and on, and none of this includes the 2021 post poll violence. Hindus who live in safer areas, and lecture about democracy and liberalism, while enjoying propaganda and social media trends under the financial safety net of their parents, won't ever understand this pain. There are reasons why 71% Hindus voted for a single party all these years.’

America tightened the H-1B green card path and pushed India on Russian oil in the same diplomatic cycle. Your cousin's visa and your petrol price are now part of the same geopolitical conversation. #legalimmigration #marcorubio #narendraamodi #LPGcrisis #straitofhormuz #russia

India's top economists are not panicking about 97. They are worried about what happens when #RBI tries too hard to stop it and fails publicly.

[Gul Panag @GulPanag]

Not cool.

You can dislike a Prime Minister, disagree with a government, protest, debate and vote differently. That’s democracy.

But reducing the office of India’s Prime Minister, the man, the office, and what he represents abroad, to a joke on foreign soil -doesn’t feel like the right thing or dissent - to me.

It diminishes him, the institution, and ultimately, us.

The #rupee did not fall because #India got weak. Too many things demanded #dollars at once and nobody noticed until it was already at 97.

@NITIAayog The informal economy is being dismantled. Vertical living is being mandated. Mid-skill jobs are being quietly phased out by policy and AI in the same breath. And a ₹16.72 lakh crore infrastructure pipeline is redrawing which cities matter and which ones get left behind.

[Manaa @manukrati]

Your city isn't broken. It's being quietly rebuilt — and nobody sent you the memo.
The 2026 @NITIAayog Sandhan report dropped a blueprint for urban India that touches your rent, your job, your commute, and your kirana. Not in ten years. Now.
