@vinitku08386775@ashwinnagar@ANI@ShekharGupta Whether they want to suspend or not is their decision. Again, as I explained earlier, they are fully permitted to decide to suspend or not.
@ashwinnagar@ANI@ShekharGupta Irrespective of whether a global body has the right or not to instruct a member body in its internal affairs, a global body is totally permitted to suspend any of its member bodies.
United World Wrestling issues a strong statement on #WrestlersProtest firmly condemning the treatment and detention of wrestlers. UWW also said in its statement to suspend India if WFI elections are not held within 45 days.
United World Wrestling also expressed its disappointment over the lack of results of the investigations so far & urged the authorities to conduct a thorough and impartial investigation into the allegations against Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh.
@meenakandasamy The killer was a local goon. His gang was around him, providing cover. Blame the public as much as u want but the real reason is flawed justice system which instils no fear. Killers know that the CM will personally gift a sewing machine, & community will arrange lawyers.
A man killed his teenage girlfriend after stabbing her with a knife in public more than twenty times, and as if that wasn't enough, he smashed her head with a boulder. Dozens of passerbys walked past, no one intervened, no one called the police, no one stopped him.
India's misogynist violence doesn't reside in her men alone, it is embedded, along with the caste system and rape culture, within society itself. Which is why victims of domestic abuse don't speak out. Not because they won't be heard, but because they will be silenced, they will be damned.
This is a society which legitimises violence in every interaction. A society with so much innate cruelty that doesn't even try to hide. Two days ago, at a roadside eatery, I saw a mother tell her three-year-old child, if you don't eat, I'll punch your face. We've normalised violence without realising how harmful, how painful, how self-destructive it is.
When will mothers and fathers first learn to love their children without this language and culture and practice of violence? When will men learn to hold women with only love - - and neither the trembling shadow or the threat of violence?
How do we love in this society? How do we relate in the midst of such misogyny---knowing that men hate you from the very bones, that this is the way they have been conditioned? That the women to whom you turn for support may well be patriarchy's handmaidens, who will blame you for everything you have suffered.
Every act of violence that you suffer, every act of violence that you observe, every act of violence that you inflict breaks you down forever. How do we put ourselves together as a people?
Sometimes I feel broken in a way no miracle can put together.
Some nights, in the arms of my children, or in the tenderness of my lover, I feel that there is, and will be, a healing to all the hurt of the world.

Then who exactly was stopped Savarkar from getting freedom?
Kisne roka tha Bhai? Le Leni thi na Azaadi and Gandhi would have come from South Africa to an Independent India in 1915 😁😁

India got it's freedom in 1947
35 years before that would have been 1912
Gandhi Ji came to India, from South Africa, in 1915
He launched his first Satyagraha in India in 1917.
So 35 years before 1947, Gandhi was not even in India, nor was his non violence ideology

For the last time. Nehru wasn't Congress President at Independence, it was Kripalani. Congress President didn't automatically become PM. Nehru was the choice of the assembly including Patel, who served under him till his death in 1950.
