In our Afghanistan, there is a current mission to delete our culture and replace it with fundamentalism. It makes it more important than ever to document our history & the beauty of our customs. Congratulations to @shilpibatra on her publication, sharing the tradition of sheenkhal. Much love and gratitude for including us in your accomplishment, as our anscestors spirits beamed with pride @Mariamistan@blingistan@Limaahmad
My dear aunty, @shilpibatra ‘s mother, one of the few remaining Hindu Pashtuns exiled to India after Pakistan’s creation, prays for happiness and peace in Afghanistan. Her grace, her traditions, her love for our homeland—this is Afghan culture at its finest. I love you both dearly! ❤️🇦🇫❤️🇦🇫 Afghan culture is so much more.
@SuVe4Madurai This is such a positive step by Lok Sabha! Recognizing the art and the artists who worked on our Constitution is a proud moment. Gandhi Ji and Ambedkar Ji’s legacy is forever, and this initiative just adds to our history. Why criticize it? Celebrate it instead! 🙌
India’s mainstream media have largely been co-opted by Modi and the ruling Hindu nationalist BJP.

I am saddened to hear of Jasoda Babai's passing. I visited Jaipur in 2018 and fondly remember her and her friends singing the Kakari song:
توره شپه ده توره خونه
شین خالۍ نه ده معلومه
توره شپه به خدای رڼا کړي
شین خالۍ به خدای پیدا کړي
My deepest condolences and sympathies to her family and friends.
May her soul rest in peace.

@KarzaiH@KarzaiH Karzai sahab, I am content that my grandmothers’ left feeling proud of their Pashtun identity. And your support in connecting with them and validating THIS has been immense. Together we were able to heal the generational trauma of displacement. Thank you, thank you 🙏
@FMamundzay@_TheBlueSkin Thank you so much for your condolences @FMamundzay Sahab. I will always be grateful for the love and respect that you all have showered on my Babais'
My poster girl of @_TheBlueSkin Jasoda Babai has passed on
Still remember how she looked at the life-size portrait of herself during my first exhibit and didn’t believe her eyes. She looked at H.E. @KarzaiH sahab with amazement repeating- Is this really me?
May she rest in peace
Such a moment of pride. I’ve known Nur Murad Sahab since his Tenure as CEO @ACBofficials
Had worked with him as a Dev. consultant. We collaborated during @UNFPAAfg again. I’ve looked up to him as a leader. Today he has taken up a role with @usacricket and I can’t be happier
د هند په جېپور ښار کې د کوچنۍ میناتوري Miniature painting هنر خورا مشهور دی چې له ۱۶مې پیړۍ راپدیخوا په دغه هیواد کې ادامه لري. د جېپور ښار اوسیدونکی محمد ریاض د مغلو د وخت پاچاهانو انځورونه لا هم جوړوي او دغه هنر یې ژوندی ساتلی.
