Over two days in August 2017, hundreds of men marched by torchlight through Charlottesville, Virginia, chanting that Jews would not replace them, and then carried Nazi flags through that same city while one of them drove a car into a crowd and killed a woman. Standing shoulder to shoulder with Richard Spencer that weekend was a European publisher of far-right books who, four years earlier, had flown to Delhi to meet the national spokesman of the RSS — India's Hindu nationalist paramilitary. He came home declaring his company would become the Indian right's gateway to the Western world.
That spokesman was Ram Madhav. He sits today on the RSS's National Executive.
On August 29, the chief of that same RSS takes the stage at Madison Square Garden.
This is the district office of @JulieMenin, Speaker of the New York City Council — the daughter and granddaughter of Holocaust survivors, and the first Jewish Speaker in the Council's history. Five months ago she and Council Member Yusef Salaam convened an interfaith rally at City Hall for a package of bills against antisemitism, Islamophobia and anti-Christian hate.
@SpeakerMenin has said nothing about August 29.

“Don't we have the right to love Jesus in this country?” That was the question a Christian resident of Ghushipara, in Barrackpore's Ward 24 in West Bengal asked, days after an alleged mob forced its way into the homes of Christians, disrupting the private prayer services and assaulting residents on 11 August.

A number of human rights organisations are calling on the U.S government to put sanctions against the members of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), an Islamophobic Hindutva militia.
The RSS are guilty of persecuting Muslims, Christians, and other religious minorities.
The Council of American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) joined the US Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF) in calling for the sanctions.
“The RSS has been enabled by India’s far-right Hindutva government to persecute minorities,” a spokesperson for CAIR said.
The RSS was Founded in 1925 and aims to spread the Hindutva ideology, seeking to dominate Indian national culture and identity strictly through Hindu nationalism.
.@TheGarden: @USCIRF just told Washington not to extend courtesies to leaders of the Hindu supremacist paramilitary RSS. On Aug 29, you're hosting Mohan Bhagwat, who leads the RSS. Cancel the booking.

I am an Imran Khan man
The dictatorship in Pakistan can no longer pretend Imran Khan does not exist, now that the court has ordered him moved to hospital. The regime has tortured or slow poisoned him almost to death

Churches attacked. Worshippers assaulted. Christians jailed on fabricated charges. Muslims lynched by mobs. This is the record of the Hindu supremacist paramilitary RSS. On Aug 29, you host its leader. @TheGarden: cancel it.

Imagine if our government invested in clean air and water, childcare, and healthcare like it invests in death and destruction abroad. Imagine if it cared about building schools here more than bombing them in Gaza.
What kind of world would we be able to create for our children?
A Sabar Institute analysis found a strong association between Muslim population share and voter deletion intensity in Uttarakhand, where deletions exceeded the 2022 winning margin in 45 of 70 Assembly constituencies.

USCIRF's chair just named the RSS for attacks on Christians and Muslims. Its chief takes Madison Square Garden in 7 days. @RoKhanna@RepJayapal@RepBera, explain your silence.
Wasn't Netaji Subhas Anti-National? Just 8 points.🙏🏾
🔵 Netaji Subhas deliberately chose Tagore's Jana Gana Mana over Bankim's Vande Mataram for his multinational army.
🔵 Netaji on Sept 26, 1943 at last Mughal Emperor Bahadur Shah's tomb in Rangoon said this -
"We Indians, regardless of religious faiths, cherish the memory of Bahadur Shah, not because he was the man who gave the clarion call to his countrymen to fight the enemy from without, but because he was the man under whose flag fought Indians from all provinces, Indians professing different religious faiths, the man under whose sacred flag freedom-loving Hindus, Muslims and Sikhs fought side by side in the war that has been dubbed by English historians as the sepoy mutiny, but which we Indians call the first war of independence.
That spirit of dynamic faith-inspired unity, not listless secular uniformity, was what he wanted to see emulated in the - last war of independence."
Today's Hero of Hatred and his gang, who are running after the Mughals with hammer and tongs, erasing that period from schools and colleges, are also the ones who distribute certificates of nationalism. So, isn't Netaji an anti-national according to them by default?
🔵 His Azad Hind Government chose - Jai Hind (Victory to India) as the common greeting, instead of invoking any word that inclined towards any religion.
Wasn't it Tukde Tukde move?
🔵 Hindustani, a mixture of Hindi and Urdu written in the Roman script, became the national language.
But keeping the sentiment of south Indian presence, translation into Tamil was provided at all public meetings.
Even the proclamation of the Azad Hind government was read in Hindustani, Tamil, and English.
The RSS and BJP whose foundation slogan is Hindi, Hindu, Hindutva - wasn't it a Dimagi Naxali programme by their IQ parameters?
🔵 A leaping tiger, symbolising Tipu Sultan’s brave resistance against the British, was used as the emblem on the tricolour shoulder badges of INA uniforms.
Isn't it anti-national to the likes of Amit Shah and his gang?
🔵 Gandhi’s charkha continued to adorn the center of the tricolor flags that INA soldiers were to carry on their march toward Delhi.
The first division of INA, some 10K soldiers under the command of Md Zaman Kiani was divided into three regiments
1. Gandhi Brigade.
2. Nehru Brigade.
3. Azad Brigade (attributing - Maulana Azad).
Those who worship Godse, despise Nehru, and abuse Maulana Azad - shouldn't they Netaji Subhas a traitor?
🔵 Three Urdu words -
Itmad (Faith),
Ittefaq (Unity),
Kurbani (Sacrifice)
They encapsulated the motto of the Azad Hind movement.
Those who are deliberately running an official campaign to Sanskritise popular Hindi by excluding Urdu words, for those people, Urdu is an enemy language. Shouldn't they consider Netaji an enemy?
🔵 A rosary of beads and a small copy of Gita were Netaji's forever companions, but with a distinction from today's political buffoons. He never made public display of his regiousity.
Netaji's colleague S. A. Ayer wrote "He never even once spoke his God in public. He lived him."
Isn't this approach deplorable to today's religious clowns who are using their religion for their political purpose?
So, I demand declare Netaji Subhas an Anti-National, Dimagi Naxal, Urban Naxal, Tukde Tukde etc etc.
In a huge setback to middle-class families, sugar prices have gone up by more than 15% in the past one month.
A 1 kg packet of sugar that used to cost ₹48 last month has now reached ₹55, in some states crossed ₹60- a setback for Indian households amid the festive season.
Why are India's sugar stocks at their lowest levels? Where is all the sugar going? Why has the need to import sugar arisen after a decade?
CHEENI KUM HAI!
