It's a huge to loss to every Indian young parent, and their child.

Dr Sivaranjani Santosh had resigned from the Indian Academy of Paediatrics (IAP) ater an eight-year long fight against fruit-based, non-carbonated beverages marketing themselves as Oral Rehydration Solution

Three cases of Love Jihad just this week. All involving impersonation, sexual assault, blackmail, and forcible conversion.

Denial is as damning as the deed itself.

[AstroCounselKK 🇮🇳 @AstroCounselKK]

I am an Indian,
and everyone says I lack civic sense.

They can overturn cars, burn streets,
and vandalize a city after a championship game.
I dance at an airport excited about my first foreign trip, and suddenly I am the face of poor civic sense.

I am an Indian,
and everyone says I steal jobs.

They move factories across oceans,
shift profits through tax havens,
and automate entire industries overnight.
I study, compete, earn a visa, work 18 hours a day, sometimes multiple jobs and somehow I am the one stealing jobs and scamming the system.

I am an Indian,
and everyone says I am everywhere.

I build your software,
treat your illness,
teach your children,
drive your taxis,
and open your stores.
The world became a village,
yet my presence remains a problem.

I am an Indian,
and everyone says I am too loud.

The evening news screams outrage.
Political rallies shake entire cities.
The internet echoes with anger day and night.
I celebrate a wedding, a festival, a victory,
and I am told my joy is too loud.

I am an Indian,
and everyone says I smell of curry.

The world smells of gunpowder,
of hatred,
of division,
of endless arguments about race and religion.
I carry the fragrance of spices from my grandmother's kitchen,
and somehow that is what offends.

I am an Indian,
and everyone says I have no culture.

I come from a civilization that counted the stars
when much of the world was still learning maps.
I speak languages older than nations.
I celebrate hundreds of traditions,
yet I am told I have no culture.

I am an Indian,
and everyone says I am backward.

I send missions to the Moon.
I build vaccines for millions.
I run companies across continents.
Yet a viral video of one fool becomes evidence against a billion people.

I am an Indian,
and everyone says I worship celebrities.

I celebrate my favorite actor's success
with flowers, music, and a few glasses of milk.

Others worship influencers who sell outrage, turn every disagreement into a battlefield, and every opinion into a war.
Yet my celebration is the one that makes headlines.

I am an Indian,

and everyone says I gather in crowds.

We walk together in processions,
celebrating our faith, our culture, our traditions.

Everyone is welcome.
No shops are looted.
No neighborhoods are burned.
No one is threatened for thinking differently.

We sing.
We dance.
We pray.
And somehow our gathering becomes the problem.

I am an Indian,

and everyone says I bring my culture everywhere.

I light a lamp in a foreign land.
I wear a saree in the snow.
I teach my children the language of their grandparents.

Others build walls between neighbors,
argue endlessly over identity,
and forget where they came from.
Yet I am told I should leave my culture behind.

I am an Indian,

and everyone says I live in the past.

But my past gave me yoga,
mathematics, philosophy, meditation,
and the idea that the world is one family.

The future keeps borrowing from my past,
while telling me to be embarrassed by it.

I am an Indian,
and everyone says I should be ashamed.

Ashamed of my accent.
Ashamed of my food.
Ashamed of my festivals.
Ashamed of my traditions.
Ashamed of existing.

But I am not ashamed.

I am the child of farmers and philosophers,
scientists and saints, workers and dreamers.

I come from a land that taught the world
that truth can be many-sided,
that all paths deserve respect,
and that the entire world is one family.

Yes, we have flaws. Every nation does.

But judge me by my actions, not by your stereotypes.

For I am an Indian.

And before you tell me what is wrong with me, look honestly at what you have normalized in yourself.

For I am an Indian.

The world may mock my accent,
question my customs,
laugh at my celebrations,
and judge me through a thousand stereotypes.

Yet I stand tall.
For I belong to a civilization older than empires, a culture richer than prejudice, and a people whose spirit refuses to bend.

Jai Hind

ही घटना लातूर मधील आहे असे म्हणतात..

पुण्यात सुद्धा हे सर्रास बघायला भेटते. 7 ते 8 प्रवासी घेऊन जाणाऱ्या ऑटोंना पोलिस अडवत नाहीत पण एखाद्या दुचाकीस्वाराला आडवे जाऊन अडवतात.

या पोलिसावर हत्येचा प्रयत्न करण्याचा गुन्हा दाखल करण्यात यावा तसेच पोलिसांना समज देण्यात यावी.

Crowd in Abhijeet Dipke CJP protest in Jantar Mantar is so thin that even Arfa had to accept that only 1K to 2K people have attended it despite having 2 Crore+ followers in Instagram.

So it's clear now #IndiaRejectsCJP and Kejriwal has again failed.

[Radharamn Das राधारमण दास @RadharamnDas]

A Hindu man with a tilak & saffron gamcha went to see what happens if he stands in a Muslim majority area. He has a secret camera with him to record.

Soon enough a Muslim boy came charging & told him to get lost. While Muslims flaunt their skull caps & Muslim identity, but when a Hindus does, they become alarmed & attack. There real fear is awakened Hindus. So start flaunting your Sanatani identity: Tilak , Dhoti, Kurta, Japa Mala : wherever you go

[PVR Narasimha Rao @homam108]

Namaste friends, please retweet this unusual request to maximize reach.

Sri @annamalai_k ji is at important crossroads & the next year is a BIG ONE for him. IF you care for him, BJP & TN, please do the prayers I am suggesting below, at the times mentioned below, with the sankalpa mentioned below.

(1) Solar New Year

TIME: 2026 June 4, 4:45-5:15 pm IST (please convert to local time if you live outside of India)
PRAYER: Chant Durga Saptashloki once, chant the pair (Lakshmi Ashtottara Shata Nama Stotra, followed by Vishnu Sahasra Nama Stotra) as many times as you can (each time repeat the pair), Lakshmi Ashtottara Shata Nama Stotra one last time and then Durga Saptashloki once at the end.
SANKALPA: Say this before the chanting:
शिव गोत्रोद्भवस्य आश्रेषानक्षत्रे कर्कराशौ कन्यालग्ने जातस्य कुप्पुसामि अन्नामलै नामधेयस्य शीघ्रमेव तमिळराज्याधीशत्व सिद्ध्यर्थं दुर्गालक्ष्मीविष्णुध्यानकर्म यथाशक्ति करिष्ये।
ஶிவ கொத்ரொத்பவஸ்ய ஆஶ்ரெஷானக்ஷத்ரெ கர்கராஶௌ கன்யாலக்னெ ஜாதஸ்ய குப்புஸாமி அன்னாமலை னாமதெயஸ்ய ஶீக்ரமெவ தமிளராஜ்யாதீஶத்வ ஸித்த்யர்தம் துர்காலக்ஷ்மீவிஷ்ணுத்யானகர்ம யதாஶக்தி கரிஷ்யெ|
śiva gotrodbhavasya āśreṣānakṣatre karkarāśau kanyālagne jātasya kuppusāmi annāmalai nāmadheyasya śīghrameva tamiḻarājyādhīśatva siddhyarthaṁ durgālakṣmīviṣṇudhyānakarma yathāśakti kariṣye|

(2) Soli-lunar New Year

TIME: 2026 June 19, 2:15-2:45 pm IST (please convert to local time if you live outside of India)
PRAYER: Chant Durga Saptashloki as many times as you can.
SANKALPA: Say this before the chanting:
शिव गोत्रोद्भवस्य आश्रेषानक्षत्रे कर्कराशौ कन्यालग्ने जातस्य कुप्पुसामि अन्नामलै नामधेयस्य शीघ्रमेव तमिळराज्याधीशत्व सिद्ध्यर्थं दुर्गाध्यानकर्म यथाशक्ति करिष्ये।
ஶிவ கொத்ரொத்பவஸ்ய ஆஶ்ரெஷானக்ஷத்ரெ கர்கராஶௌ கன்யாலக்னெ ஜாதஸ்ய குப்புஸாமி அன்னாமலை னாமதெயஸ்ய ஶீக்ரமெவ தமிளராஜ்யாதீஶத்வ ஸித்த்யர்தம் துர்காத்யானகர்ம யதாஶக்தி கரிஷ்யெ|
śiva gotrodbhavasya āśreṣānakṣatre karkarāśau kanyālagne jātasya kuppusāmi annāmalai nāmadheyasya śīghrameva tamiḻarājyādhīśatva siddhyarthaṁ durgādhyānakarma yathāśakti kariṣye|

The reason I am suggesting this is that his Tajak Varshaphal chart for 2026-27 has 5th lord Rahu in 5th and lagna lord Venus and 9th lord Mercury in 9th. That chart takes effect at the time above. His Tithi Pravesh chart for 2026-27 also has 5th lord Rahu in 5th.

PS: I never made such suggestions/requests in the past for anyone else. But I am 100% confident that Annamalai ji is a sincere, selfless, dharmik & highly competent leader with deep love for TN & India. I am also confident that praying for his success is highly dharmik and WILL benefit TN and India, IRRESPECTIVE of whether he leads a new party that aligns with BJP later or remains with BJP after some drama and a fortified image pleasing people of TN.

PPS: You can start earlier than the time I mentioned and end later than the time I mentioned, but the actual time the new solar/lunar year starts for him is in the middle of the window I gave.

- All 4 people were on different Vande Bharat trains.

- All 4 people had window seats.

- All 4 people were seated next to a kid and his father.

- All 4 people had the worst journey experience.

- All 4 people clicked the same photo.

What a coincidence!

Check out the incredible final moments of Praggnanandhaa taking down World no.1 Magnus Carlsen with the Black pieces in Round 8 of Norway Chess 2026!

With this win, Pragg becomes the first Indian (and possibly in the world) player who defeated Magnus Carlsen in Classical Chess twice in the same tournament! What a moment for Indian Chess.

[Aaruhi Reddy 🥷 @CuteAaruhi4]

One day, a Muslim guy messaged me on Instagram and asked, "Would you like to be friends with me?"

I refused. Then he said, "Don't be afraid. I'm a true Muslim. I would never betray or deceive you."

So I replied, "Alright, but according to your Allah, even friendship with non-Muslim girls isn't permissible, and a true Muslim would never do that.

So either you're doing taqiyya with me, or you're a harami Muslim."

He immediately blocked me, and to this day, he has never messaged me again.
