HAMID ANSARI HAS FINALLY SOLVED INDIA’S NATIONAL-SECURITY PUZZLE.

The man who found an “Indian” in Mahmud of Ghazni -and faces grave allegations from former R&AW officers over compromised Indian operations in Iran - now quotes Nehru to identify the real danger: Hindu right-wing communalism.

Of course!

👀Invaders receive historical nuance.

👀Communists receive ideological amnesty.

👀Allegations involving Indian agents receive silence.

👀But politically assertive Hindus are National Emergency!!!

What a hypocritical secular compass of a former vice president of the country. Shameful we had him as a VP.

@Fintech03 This is so beautiful. Great wisdom which can be applied to daily grihasthi life. 🙏🏽

Dear Kapil

Sorry congress working committee did not decide.

Nehru wrote to Jinnah in 1938 saying Vandemataram was sung for 30 years and no one called it religious. He bemaoned Jinnah was not agreeing for even for two stanzas.

The dwarfing of Vandemataram to stanzas was a desperate attempt of the congress working committee to get the Muslim League on board to avoid partition which it failed to.

Finally it lost a third of India's land and also vandemataram

Your claim that the Constituent Assembly decided in 1950 that only the first two stanzas of Vande Mataram should be sung because the remaining stanzas contained religious references that were opposed is not right.

The Constituent Assembly record says

On 24 January 1950, Dr Rajendra Prasad expressly said there would be no formal resolution. His statement made no reference to two stanzas, religious imagery or objections from any community. Instead, he declared:

"Vande Mataram… shall be honoured equally with Jana Gana Mana and shall have equal status with it.”

The two-stanza restriction actually came from the Congress Working Committee not the Constituent Assembly in 1950.

Nehru's own Selected Works record that the CWC, meeting from 26 October-1 November 1937, while “recognising the validity of the objection raised by Muslims to certain parts of the Bande Mataram song,” recommended that “the first two stanzas only” be sung at national gatherings.

Even more revealing is Nehru's letter to Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose on 20 October 1937. Nehru admitted: "the present outcry against Bande Mataram is to a large extent a manufactured one by the communalists.” Yet he added that there was “some substance in it”; days later came the CWC compromise.

So the documentary chronology is clear:

1937: Muslim objections -- CWC recognises them -- only the first two stanzas recommended.

1950: Constituent Assembly imposes no two-stanza restriction -- Rajendra Prasad instead accords Vande Mataram “equal status” and equal honour with Jana Gana Mana.

Can you guess what this number is: 43 crore?

That is 430 million. Not vaccine doses. Not Aadhaar cards. Not UPI txns this time.

That is the number of free doctor consultations delivered by a govt telemedicine platform most urban Indians have never even heard of.

It is called eSanjeevani.....

And it might be the most quietly massive digital health system on the planet, bigger, by consultation volume, than any telemedicine platform any country has ever built, public / private.

Look at how fast this scaled, most people assume govt tech moves at govt speed.

This one did not....

- 2019: platform rolled out, mostly experimental.

- Mid-2020: crossed 3 million consultations, right as COVID lockdowns hit and OPDs across the country shut their doors.

- Within a couple more years: past 120 million.

- By January 2025: past 250 million.

- By November 2025: 430 million.

That is not linear growth. That is a curve that bent hard upward because a health worker sitting in a primary health centre in rural Chhattisgarh, with zero specialists for a 100 KMs, suddenly had a video line straight to a doctor at a district hospital.

How it actually works and why the model is smart:

- It runs on a hub & spoke system. 131,000+ rural health centres (the "spokes") connect to ~17,000 hospital hubs.

- A nurse / health worker at a village level centre does the first line consultation and if it needs a specialist, they do not send the patient on a bus ride to the nearest city. They connect them, live, on video, right there.

- And this is not a niche pilot anymore, 93%+ of all usage runs through this doctor to doctor model, meaning it has become genuine day to day rural healthcare infrastructure, not a COVID-era stopgap.

A few more fascinating data points for people mostly doubting any govt run schemes:

- 57% of beneficiaries are women, the demographic that has historically had the hardest time physically travelling to a city hospital for a routine consultation.

- 12% are senior citizens. This is reaching exactly the population that private telemedicine apps, built for smartphone literate urban users with credit cards, were never going to reach.

1 of the largest single interventions in healthcare access in human history, built quietly, by an Indian govt lab (C-DAC), running almost invisibly in the background of "Digital India" headlines that usually go to UPI and Aadhaar instead.

Bharat is rising. 🙏🙏

THE SYSTEM WILL MUZZLE INDIA’S FOOD POLICEMAN – TUKARAM MUNDHE. DON’T LET IT.
Tukaram Mundhe stands between us and a silently bubbling health crisis.
Had Tukaram Mundhe not stood up to the powerful 5-star, celebrity restaurant, corporate food chain and dark store lobby, we wouldn’t have known just how much unsafe and adulterated food can enter the food chain.
In case you’re wondering, Mundhe is the Commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in Maharashtra. Over the past few weeks, his relentless drive against unhygienic food vendors has led to raids on restaurants, major food chains and 86 quick-commerce hubs. The raids have uncovered serious hygiene and food-safety violations. Four Domino’s and one Pizza Hut outlet were shut after FDA inspections found, among other things, grease residue, insect infestations and food products without proper expiry information.
Then came the dark stores. The FDA suspended 14 food licences linked to Blinkit, Zepto and Instamart outlets after inspections found violations including cockroaches and expired food.
In Maharashtra’s crackdown on milk adulteration, FDA inspections detected the dilution of milk with water and the manufacture of synthetic milk using urea, detergents and formalin.
In Pune, FDA raids seized suspected adulterated khoya, paneer, cheese analogue and ghee worth ₹47.36 lakh, with 35 samples sent for laboratory testing.
The food being delivered to your home for your kids can be sitting in a warehouse where cockroaches and rodents have access to it or might even be chemical food.
This is why what Tukaram Mundhe is doing matters.
But Mundhe is doing what Mundhe does best.
This 2005-batch Indian Administrative Service officer of the Maharashtra cadre, widely known as a strict, fearless and anti-corruption bureaucrat, is often dubbed a real-life “Singham”. This is a testament to his rigid adherence to rules, zero-tolerance approach to corruption and willingness to confront the system. But he has paid a big price.
Mundhe has been transferred 25 times in 21 years of service.
And there is now an apprehension that he might be muzzled once again.
Because the pushback has begun.
The courts have questioned the proportionality and procedure of some of the FDA’s actions. The Bombay High Court recently criticised the FDA over action against Cadila Pharmaceuticals, observing that it had effectively used a “sword to kill a mosquito” after the agency seized medicines worth ₹2.4 crore without prior notice. The FDA subsequently agreed to withdraw its orders and issue show-cause notices, allowing the company an opportunity to be heard.
In another case, the Bombay High Court directed the FDA to pay ₹5 lakh to a Pune dairy and sweet shop after its licence remained suspended despite the establishment subsequently achieving 98% compliance with food-safety requirements.
The courts are right to insist that regulators follow due process.
But here is the question the rest of us must ask:
Does due process mean going soft on food-safety violations?
Mundhe should not be above the law. But neither should the food industry. Don’t curb the man because he has had the temerity to enforce the law.
Instead, stand up for him because he is standing up for us.

CONG EXPOSED.
Here's the unfiltered audio. Does the Congress has a problem with Bharat's national song?
The audio picks up this line:
"OUR VERSION OF VANDE MATARAM"

How bizarre. Vande Mataram is the song of We The People, A full throated ode to our one and only motherland.

HOW CAN ANYONE CLAIM EXCLUSIVE OWNERSHIP OVER VANDE MATARAM?

DOES THE CONGRESS WORSHIP SOME OTHER MOTHER INDIA?

My latest EAC-PM working paper: "How to do Process Reform: Case Study of IEPFA" (co-authored with @AakankshaArora5). The paper lays out step-by-step how process reforms were implemented at IEFPA over the last one year. As a result, the system is now able to do more approvals in a month than it was earlier doing in a year. Indeed, the backlog will be fully cleared in the next six months. This case study is part of our effort to document government re-engineering efforts so that they can be taught and replicated across the system.

Udhaynidhi Stalin’s remark, that Sanatana Dharma must be eradicated, has already been adjudged by courts as “hate speech and a clear attack on Hinduism carrying implications akin to genocide”.

Today, inside the Tamil Nadu assembly, Stalin repeated the statement. No one objected.

@MaliniP —“I know nothing, I fear something, therefore I fear”—connecting to Plato’s Allegory of The Cave, where ignorance (not knowing) leads to irrational fear.

[Srilakshmi @SriPeddada]

@MaliniP The first step is to recognize that our current understanding might be limited, just as the prisoners in the cave believed shadows were reality.If one refuses to open up ultimately your argument Mala ji will only lead to irrational fears like this.

[Srilakshmi @SriPeddada]

@MaliniP concept of purva paksha (examining the opponent’s viewpoint before presenting one’s own )
Plato’s allegory reminds us that even those who are ignorant can become enlightened, but only if they are willing to question their assumptions.

[Srilakshmi @SriPeddada]

@MaliniP resonates deeply, especially in contexts where colonial or inherited mental frameworks dominate.
To begin a debate or educate someone like Malini ji, it is wise to follow the principle of “seek to understand before being understood,” which aligns with the Indian philosophical

[Srilakshmi @SriPeddada]

@MaliniP @sgurumurthy Plato’s Allegory of The Cave is both timely and significant here to educate Malini ji. The allegory’s central message—that true knowledge lies beyond the shadows of ignorance and that enlightenment demands courage to challenge illusions—resonates deeply, especially in contexts

India has remained a beacon of stability, democratic vitality and economic dynamism in an increasingly troubled region — a testament to its strong institutions, resilient democracy and steady growth trajectory. So much so that even The Economist, for once, has found reason to praise India. https://t.co/CuOsSpVbE7

[GhoseSpot @TheRightGhose]

@Chellaney But @TheEconomist - even in its reluctant praise - appears to be both flummoxed and disappointed. For the second time in recent weeks it has expressed surprise at the Indian Youth not taking to the streets unlike its neighbours in #Bangladesh and #Nepal. Take a deep breath.
