🚩 When those hands trembled, it wasn’t owing to his age, it was the weight of centuries of longing, the whispered prayers of generations, the wounds of history that had been hitherto carried in silence finally finding closure. And as this moment unfolds now, it feels as if the entire journey of Ram Janmabhoomi, the tears, the hope, the unbroken faith gathers into a single heartbeat.
Watching it live, my heart can’t hold it. My chest tightens, my eyes overflow. It isn’t just a ritual. It verily is the release of centuries of pain, faith, and hope. It is the completion of a promise carried across generations.
A moment so powerful, it doesn’t just give goosebumps, it breaks something open inside. 🚩
🙏🚩 JAI SHRI RAM 🙏🚩

@sanjeevsanyal ji, Heartiest congratulations on the trailer launch of The Revolutionaries!
Promises to be a powerful corrective to the historical narratives shaped by ideological prejudice and vested interests. If it succeeds in impelling our youth question the biases peddled in the name of history and look beyond the Left’s carefully curated version of our past, it will have served a truly consequential purpose. Wishing the entire team great success. Bholenath ji bless ✨

A very pertinent point being made by @jsaideepak ji.
In a constitutional democracy, good intentions cannot and ought not replace due process. Whenever the law confers exceptional powers, there must be equally strong safeguards to ensure fairness, accountability and protection against its arbitrary and capricious exercise. Constitutional or as one may say Judicial review is an essential part of maintaining that balance.
CR or JR is not an attempt to dilute protections against atrocities. Rather it is an imperative safeguard against arbitrary application and misuse. As in the long run, constitutional scrutiny only strengthens public confidence in the law.
It's time for judicial review of the amendments made in 2018 to the SC/ST Atrocities Act which removed the safeguards laid down by the Supreme Court to prevent its rampant misuse. The Amendments have made it worse. Every affected party must prefer a constitutional challenge.
@RanvirShorey ji, 🤣
From Bob Marley to Block Marley.
Start life believing in “One Love”and then
life introduces you to peeps who mistake abuse for tolerance, and abusers who mistake tolerance for permission and suddenly you discover the equally important philosophy of “One Block”.
Just the quiet realisation that some people deserve freedom of speech and exp preferably somewhere you can’t hear them 🤣🤣
Kind Sir, “demonetisation was ONLY political” is certainly an extraordinarily confident conclusion built on remarkably little evidence.
The policy addressed very real problems: counterfeit currency, black money, terror financing, illicit cash networks and the formalisation of economic activity. These were not invented after the fact, and the Hon’ble Supreme Court found a rational nexus between the measure and those objectives.
The political conspiracy you are asserting has one glaring deficiency: evidence.
You cannot establish motive by simply declaring it. You cannot turn suspicion into fact by repeating it. And you certainly cannot reduce a major monetary and national sec intervention to partisan politics because that makes for a convenient narrative.
Moreover, If you want to make sweeping claims about manufacturing, bring manufacturing data. Likewise, If you want to claim political motive, bring evidence of political motive.
If you seriously want to understand the ecosystem behind counterfeit currency and illicit finance, read “Who Painted My Money White?” by @SreeIyer1 ji. Treat it as a book, not a substitute for official evidence but at least broaden the reading before making sweeping pronouncements.
Your political opinion is yours. It isn’t evidence.
Read more. Assert less.
@aravind
Notebandi was ONLY and ONLY political in nature
All the political parties in India work on black money
Notebandi broke the back of all the parties NOT in power
India lost the manufacturing race forever
We are forever catching up now

Diabetes, Obesity, and now Hair Loss: India’s emerging health trifecta with hair loss still shrouded in silence ‼️
A generation ago, receding hairlines and visible thinning were phenomena ordinarily associated with middle age. Today, they are becoming increasingly commonplace among individuals in their late teens and twenties.
Stroll through any university campus, office, gym, coaching institute, or any public place for that matter, and the pattern becomes difficult to ignore: thinning crowns, retreating temples, and young men anxiously scrutinising every strand in the mirror.
Sales of minoxidil, finasteride, and other hair loss treatments have surged as individuals in their twenties increasingly resort to them forthwith. Yet this phenomenon continues to receive remarkably scant public attention.
What renders this trend particularly striking is that many affected individuals do not hail from families with a pronounced history of baldness. Genetics undoubtedly remains the foremost determinant, but it no longer appears sufficient to explain the scale, velocity, and increasingly youthful onset at which hair loss is manifesting itself at present.
Why is this occurring?
In my honest opinion, the answer ought, in all likelihood, to be multifactorial: chronic stress, sleep deprivation, nutritional deficiencies, ultra processed foods, pollution, hormonal disturbances, sedentary lifestyles, incessant screen exposure, and relentless academic as well as professional pressures.
Individually, each may exert a modest influence, but collectively, they may be engendering the perfect storm for accelerated hair loss among young Indians.
Yet, rather than prompting a serious national discourse, an entire industry has arisen to capitalise upon the anxiety.
Miracle oils, wonder serums, hair growth supplements, influencer endorsed remedies, dubious clinics, and aggressive marketing campaigns promising to reverse years of hair loss within weeks.
Desperate young people are expending thousands, sometimes even lakhs, in pursuit of solutions, often with little scientific substantiation and even less regulatory oversight.
Hair loss is routinely dismissed as a merely cosmetic concern. It ought not to be.
I’m certain that for many, it impinges upon confidence, self perception, mental well being, and overall quality of life.
More importantly, it may represent a visible manifestation of deeper lifestyle, environmental, and public-health challenges that warrant far greater scrutiny.
A society rightly celebrates when its youth become taller, stronger, healthier, and more prosperous. It ought also to enquire why so many of them are losing their hair before reaching thirty.
The question is not whether India is confronting a hair loss crisis.
The moot question is why nobody seems willing to talk about it.

@Iyervval, Pal, how did you miss the “political spokesperson” line? 🤣 It is literally sitting there in black and white.
I distinctly remember CJP being at pains to clarify that it had no political ambitions and no intention of entering electoral politics.
Could’ve just mentioned “spokesperson”, innit?🤣
There is something genuinely remarkable about @sanghaviharsh ji’s public life. The extraordinary alacrity with which he remains immersed in the business of governance, the humility with which he conducts himself, and, above all, an unmistakable penchant for public service.
The sheer constancy of his routine engagements speaks of a man deeply invested in public service, with an ambition not merely to propel our Gujarat towards greater pinnacles of progress, but to see its rise contribute to the larger ascendancy and glory of our Bharat, and, in its own measure, reify the aspiration of a Viksit Bharat 🇮🇳
@sanghaviharsh ji, Motabhai, planning to be in Gujarat towards the tail end of this month and would be delighted to explore the possibility of meeting you, however ephemeral the encounter may be. Since your DMs are closed, I would genuinely be grateful if you could reach out to me personally. Even a brief conversation would be an honour.

The moment I saw this, I immediately harked back to the point you all were discussing in the podcast about women in the armed forces, particularly @jsaideepak ji’s distinction between women being capable of assuming responsibility and men being unwilling to abdicate theirs.
The report says Iran has offered a bounty for killing or capturing US soldiers, with a double reward for women who capture them. The purport is obviously different from suggesting that female soldiers themselves carry a higher bounty. Yet the underlying symbolism is striking.
The phrase that stayed with me was your reference to women historically being treated as “war booty.” This image is a rather stark reminder of why the gendered realities of warfare cannot simply be waved away as patriarchy.
The question has never been whether a woman can fight. She can. She has fought, with courage and distinction, since time immemorial, and continues to do so. Nor should competence, merit or eligibility ever be determined merely by sex.
But war is not conducted in a vacuum. The enemy has its own conception of gender, vulnerability and humiliation. If women in uniform can be specifically targeted, captured or subjected to sexual violence precisely because they are women, can we really insist that men and women occupy an entirely identical operational reality on the battlefield?
And this is where your point about men not abdicating responsibility becomes far more interesting than the caricature of it as “chivalry” or “patriarchy.”
Perhaps protecting someone is not an assertion that they are incapable of protecting themselves. Perhaps sometimes it is simply an acceptance of responsibility.
So the uncomfortable question is this:
If war itself continues to recognise and exploit gender, why should we be so eager to pretend that distinction does not exist?
Would genuinely be interested in hearing you, @jsaideepak ji, take this argument further.

@LawBeatInd
And perhaps the most interesting part is that your actual point still remains untouched.
When you have a substantive disagreement, address the argument. There is no need to decorate the response with personal digs and then expect them to pass as intellectual discourse. Civility may look soft, but it has a rather inconvenient way of exposing who actually has a point to make.
