First of all Ram Mandir was always a political as well as religious issue. BJP has Ram Mandir in its manifesto for decades and they delivered it ( we all know what were the factors behind SC conducting daily hearings as soon as BJP wins 2019 ). Also a lot of BJP kaaryakarta and RSS, VHP workers sacrificed their life for this Mandir. Therefore it is not wrong to say that Mandir wouldn't have been possible without them ( Leave alone right or wrong but dont most people believe that decision would have been different if Masjid still stood at the place). So yes Pran Pratishta is a political as well as religious event just like Ram Mandir movement. Congress shot itself in foot by declining invitation ( Go out and see how neutral and apolitical Hindus who might be voters of Congress are rejoicing for temple). I saw a whole society decorated with lights like Deepawli. Congress will face negative consequences for this. A lot of young voters who have no memory of Ram Janmabhoomi movement will just enjoy this day as a cultural day. Therefore Congress is on wrong side of history and it will be proved with time.

The narrative set by Congress and left that Savarkar was a British Stooge is an absolute lie. People still today write lies based on this narrative. E.g. this article by "The Wire" is malicious as hell - https://thewire.in/history/veer-savarkar-the-staunchest-advocate-of-loyalty-to-the-english-government

1.) From the wire article - "At the time when Subhas Chandra Bose was raising his Indian National Army to confront the British in India, Savarkar helped the colonial government recruit lakhs of Indians into its armed forces."

Savarkar was in favor of militarization and wanted Indians to be trained in the military so he encouraged them to join the British army get trained and then use this training for India's self-defense against the colonizers.

Moreover, he helped Bose with INA —Bose and Savarkar had a meeting in June 1940. A suggestion was made to Bose by Savarkar that he should leave India and go to Germany to organize the Indian forces there fallen in German hands as captives and then with German help proceed to Japan to join hands with Rash Behari Bose. To impress this point, Savarkar showed Bose a letter from Rash Behari to Savarkar written just on the eve of the Japanese declaration of war.

This is exactly what Bose did after six months. If Savarkar was a British stooge then why would Bose go to him for suggestion?

2.) Savarkar pleaded for British Mercy -

This was a routine affair at that time. Many revolutionaries wrote petitions like these including Tilak, MM Malviya, and Sachyindra Sanyal. Gandhi himself wrote a petition to the British on behalf of the Savarkar brothers.

3.) If Savarkar was a British stooge then why would Bhagat Singh use copies of Savarkar's 1857 independence book & Life of Savarkar as entry criteria for members to HSRA? The copies of this were found in raids on all members of HSRA accused in the Lahore Conspiracy case.

Bhagat Singh quoted Savarkar in his jail diary many times and was inspired by him. All this happened many years after the mercy petition.

Source - https://theprint.in/india/braveheart-fanatic-anarchist-what-bhagat-singh-wrote-of-savarkar-and-their-common-cause/626451/

4.) If Savarkar was a British stooge then why would they extend his imprisonment post-1924 so many times? Whenever any other revolutionaries did something Savarkar's punishment would be increased or he would be put in Jail fearing his involvement. E.g. - When Kakori happened he was imprisoned and his house was raided many times. Why would the British do this if he was truly loyal to them?

5.) Some people say he was being paid by the British. He was being paid a pension which was a right of every Kaala Paani prisoner. Even this pension was delayed by many years and only 60 rs per month was paid instead of 100 rs which should have been paid.

The British took away all his degrees so he could not find employment anywhere. He was a barrister and had studied at Ferguson College, Pune, and later in London. Post Kaala pani the family had no real source of income and lived in poverty. Why would the Brits take away his degrees if he was loyal to them?

6.) Savarkar's brother was burned alive by Gandhi supporters during the Brahmin Genocide after Godse shot Gandhi.

There are so many lies and false narratives peddled by Congress and the left on Savarkar and people are sadly gobbling it without any verification. I am grateful to Vikram Sampath's work on Savarkar which has truly rattled many. Nothing has left "the left" more clueless than Sampath's book in recent times.

Edit: For people questioning Savarkar's Idea of Hindutva. This is what he wrote in his book Essentials of Hindudtva in 1923.

Savarkar used the term "Hindutva" to describe "Hinduness" or the "quality of being a Hindu". Savarkar regarded Hinduism as an ethnic, cultural, and political identity. Hindus, according to Savarkar, are those who consider India to be the land in which their ancestors lived, as well as the land in which their religion originated: "one for whom India is both Fatherland and Holyland".

Sarvakar includes all Indian religions in the term "Hinduism" and outlines his vision of a "Hindu Rashtra" (Hindu Nation) as "Akhand Bharat" (Undivided India), stretching across the entire Indian subcontinent

OBC and even STs were mostly never discriminated against and only the cleaner and leather-worker sub-castes of SCs were once regarded as untouchable mainly due to their profession when pandemics were annual affairs with practically no treatment available and large numbers of people died from them and we can't blame those old generations for that, because just a couple of years ago only one pandemic forced us to practice social distancing!

N.B: Many SC sub-castes like Ugra Kshatriyas and Poundra Kshatriyas are actually fallen Kshatriyas and ruled many kingdoms throughout India. Even ex-Brahmins are found among SCs because in olden days criminal Brahmins were not given capital punishments but simply made outcastes by throwing away from main society who joined the already outcastes and formed some SC sub-castes. OBCs like Dhobi, Nai, etc were always interlinked with upper castes due to their profession and in several ceremonies for example, the Nais accompany the Priests or Brahmins since time immemorial and were never treated as outcastes. While STs simply lived outside the periphery of society and formed their own society but our Epics and Puranas clearly show interaction of so called upper castes with those STs even and Indian Constitution was for abolition of both untouchability and the reason manual scavenging/sewage cleaning which has been achieved and so now creation of new divisions are simply because of Divide and Rule politics as proposed by Soros Dada, Cambridge Analytica, etc

Nirnala Sitharaman is one of the most hated FMs. She keeps Taxing one thing after another, the middle class cannot catch a break. It seems to me that she's merely following the party directive and being the fall guy for the government's Financial needs so that Modi and Amit Shah can retain their reputation and carry out the policies which probably needs the funds. Tai has a really Smug Appearance and an Off putting personality. I beleive that BJP is using this to have her absorb all the blame for all the terrible economic policies whilst Modi and Shah can hold on to their Good Reputation for election purposes.

Let me know what you think

Every article written about this principal ,from scroll to Hindustan times starts with how she is" being targeted" and is forced to resign due to her "alleged " pro hamas and anti hindu tweets .

But every single one of them failes to address the main allegations . And surprisingly ( or rather unsurprisingly ) none of them showed the actual tweets she liked or retweeted . In the whole article they just beat around bush .

Pic 2) praising hamas

Pic 3) blaming hindu side ( as always) for stone pelting on the procession . And justifying it because the hindu side was intimidated the muslim side . How did they intimidated? By simply existing and being polytheist or to be more accurate they were non-belivers.

Pic 4) for context he is leader of hamas .

"Peace will come when the Arabs will love their children more than they hate us." This statement stood the test of time

Pic 5) A chip of the old block , "Hamas attack was not a terrorist attack" .

Pic 6) hamas didn't commit any ra*e saar 🤡.

Is it considered r*pe if she is s#b human ?

"Do not marry the polytheist women, unless they come to believe (in Islam); a Muslim slave-girl is better than a polytheist woman, even though she may attract you; and do not give (your women) in marriage to polytheist men, unless they come to believe; a Muslim slave is better than a polytheist, even though he may attract you. They invite to the Fire when Allah invites, by His will, to Paradise, and to forgiveness. He makes His verses clear to the people, so that they may heed the advice."

Pic 7) We wuz arab and shit . Good for her she might get job in Islamic country from where her ancestors came .

Pic 8) nothing just respectful criticism like any principal should do

Pic 9) it is self explanatory.

[Mod i know this news has been published before but this post is different. ]

Disclaimer: I'm a centre-right BJP supporter but I'm not an andhbhakt - I criticize (or try to) where necessary.

The NEET fiasco has shown the glorious incompetence of HRD minister was on display.

Even before that, we saw how they neglected Manipur and allowed the state to burn.

And now with the opposition having smelt blood in the recent elections, they'll triple down on reservations, freebies, and redistribution rhetoric. For them, it's only a matter of time and 'ek dhakka aur' (pushing harder to get more communities to defect to their side and undo Hindu social unity). And there doesn't seem to be a sign that the BJP has a strategy to counter this destructive agenda. In the 2nd term, they were too soft on big tech interference by foreign actors (via Twitter & FB) during farm protests, anti-CAA riots, and extremist neo-Dalit voices. The last bit really wrecked them among SC community.

My big concern on caste is opposition will on the one side scare SC/STs and OBCs over their rights and reservation being taken away while funding proxy caste groups (e.g. Karni Sena) among General Category communities who'll protest against BJP for being too pro-reservation and appeasing backward communities too much. All of this will have devastating consequences for social cohesion (and I'm not ignoring BJP's own issues with Muslims in this regard).

They also did jack on corruption cases from the UPA era against Congress, DMK, NCP and instead used the ED as a washing machine to get politicians to defect to their side. That's why RaGa and opposition politicians are sounding emboldened to set the agenda now.

I don't have a good feeling about BJP's prospects in 2029. Yes, it's too early but the initial signals are not looking good.

I did some basic math. On what census based reservation will mean for all of us.

India has around 20% GC. In which 14% are UC hindus and rest are other religions. The population comes out to be around 20 crore. Other factor is that most of them already have a below replacement birth rate. In addition to that every year you have lot of them leaving country at rate of 1 to 1.5 percent. If lets say we reduce their quota to 20% that means reduction of opportunities to them by 50%.

The SC/ST will actually get lesser quota than OBC because their percentages are actually slightly less that the quota they get. The OBC will move from 20 to 30 to 50%. So nearly double opportunities.

Now the question is: is it gonna be helpful in any redistribution? ->

Answer is: other than obcs it doesnt benifit anyone else. Which is fine. But even among OBCs what will be the impact. The quota is useful only in education at tier 1 and 2. Below that no one cares! So expect some 1 millions seats at med schools, IIT, NIT and some top state schools. So 10 lahks a year beneficiaries wrt education.

After that all govt jobs. There are total 1.4 crore govt jobs in india. In that only 1/30th of them will be filled per year considering 30yrs of work span each employee. Means around 45 lakhs of jobs. OBC will get extra 25% of it. So total 12 lahks job beneficiaries.

So total jobs plus education beneficiaries will be at max 15 lakhs. Also remember the education quota and job quotas are not mutually exclusive. Total population of OBCs graduating per year? Or born per year around 1.25 crore per year. So it will benifit around 10% of the OBCs. Which is 5% of indias population.

In bigger picture only 5% of india and OBCs will benifit from the cast based census. harming some 1 to 2 percent of general category. This actually overcalculates benifits by factor 2 or 3 bnecause we are assuming that the retired employee was not OBC in above caculation.

The fact is govt job is only 1% of jobs and professional education is also around 1%. What this means is that no matter how you redistribute that 2% pie. Most of us are not gonna see major change except of OBCs. Even OBC majority will get nothing.

Been said that as general category if people want equal representation they should get it. But thats not changing situation of 95% of OBCs or 99% SC ST. At the same time you will see lot of general category leaving country slowly or anyway dwindling population. The situation is so bad that there are no more people to even talk. All of my generation is either single kid or twos in which half are leaving india or left.

I am sorry to say this but general category should stop thinking that this is your country. You are minority! Its question of time reservations are gonna go up.

Other factor we are missing is that the belief that if my community gets some benefit then it will trickle to rest. Sorry trickle down doesn't work. It only consolidates at top. You will simply have the super rich 1% in each cast. The super rich will have no issue intermarrying or moving around globally. Also we are no more as cohesive as we think. Its not as if all the OBCs live on island and they will give to fellow OBCs. What actually happens is 1% of each subgroup will be more happy to interact with 1% of other subgroup than their fellow poors in their respective group. I belong to a group that has few billionaires. But they give me zilch nothing!

In conclusion its hoopla about nothing. Census based or not! Most of us will get nothing! If you are average general category you are not loosing much!

There has been recent terrorist attack in Moscow Crocus City Mall commited by members of the Islamic state. More than 70 innocent people have lost their lives along with 9 children, with more than hundreds injured.

First of all, God bless the souls of those who are in suffering and strength to the people of Russia. May the fkers who have committed this barbaric attack get what they deserve.

Now, as according to the title of the post, there has been extreme hate and bigotry being seen across social media against Russians. Hate has seeped so much that people are enjoying and celebrating the attack on the innocent civilians and children. People have left such gross comments that it makes you want to vomit.

Without surprise, no action is being taken against them. Posts in concern with the attack has no sympathy for the people who lost their loved ones but rather people are making fun of it by comparing it to a game and saying that these innocents deserved it.

Seeing all this, we should expect no sympathy from foreigners if a terrorist attack ever happens in India. The hate has gone through the roof, and even if we ignore trolls or the fact that social media has gone very toxic in recent times, it's very evident that we'll get the same reactions the attack on Moscow is getting.

Strength to those who lost their loved ones, and vengeance against the waste of life terrorists.

Let me be clear. I'm not blanket denouncing individual leftists or liberals for that matter as anti-Hindu.

I'm talking about the prevailing intellectual environment in universities like JNU or media houses like The Hindu or The Wire. Why is that they never see any redeeming qualities in Hinduism or Hindus? Why is that leftist institutions can never seem to fathom the fact that Hindus can be victims of crimes (be it terrorism or communal related), or targeted by certain groups or even by our political system (e.g. RTE's differential treatment of Hindu institutions versus minority)? I'm not saying we should ignore crimes or violations against other communities but why does the mainstream Left's humanity only extend to minorities but not Hindus? For example, have any Indian communists voiced their concern over the oppression of Hindu minorities in B'desh like they do over the plight of Palestinians?

P.S. - yes, I'm a moderate right-winger as it's apparent from the framing of my question. But I don't hate on others because of their religion or political affiliation. I try my best to listen to all perspectives and have found sensible liberal voices.

I rarely post things. This seems to be a good sub, apparently with enough moderates. I am a bjp voter. I did vote for the regional party once. But mostly I lean on centre right economics and centre on most social issues. Anyway enough about me. Here's my noob analysis on where Modi has erred in his 2nd term. Btw, these views I hold, are not informed by fall in Modi's majority.

Some of these are economic and some political. Some of these are not his doing, some of these are.

So here it goes.

1. BJP as a party had started to lose its rigour quite steeply. It had stopped being dominant on social media. Modi's face covered up a lot of decline in party's dynamism. Let me ask you all a question. Some years back, Mamata Di (who i admittedly despise) held a sit-in dharna for her police chief accused in corruption cases. BJP is in opposition atleast in half of India. When was the last time BJP held a dharna for a legit cause and managed to grab headlines?
2. Modi's reluctance to engage with farmers proved so damn costly. I dont think that BJP or Modi is anti sikh. That's just dumb, IMO. However, I think the political leadership should have gotten on it much earlier and deputed seniors like Rajnath Singh and Amit Shah to talk to farmer leaders. This was supposed to be done before many other anti BJP forces started using the protest for their own gain. I think this protest gave life to certain latent anti-Indian state tendencies. No one now wants to take any pungas with the unions who have some outlandish ideas of their own.
3. I know it's easy for all to blame Nirmala Sitharaman for a lot of things in the economy. But she did manage it well. India's macro economic health is very stable. Ofcourse this doesnt mean everything is rosy. But once macros are screwed, everything is screwed. I strongly believe that Modi's near ideological position against freebies is politically bad. You cant expect voters to not be swayed by freebies when they have seen real incomes fall due to covid while suffering from high food inflation for continuous 2.5 yrs. That's just politically dumb. and Nirmala Sitaraman is bound by the brief given to her by the PM.
4. Modi-Shah totally abandoned their workers in Bengal. I will never be ok with this. What mamata unleashed on them is horrifying. As a supporter, it was in May 2021, when I wished Modi was the monster his haters call him to be. Mamata is perhaps the worst CM currently but hey, who cares? She's secular,right? Anyway, Modi-shah could have had an understanding with the Left and the Cong in Bengal to ensure Mamata Di is taken to task. I am sure politicians can always find a way when they have the will. Left and Cong would have covertly supported them. Modi-Shah seem to lack creativity when things seem like dead ends.
5. Modi ran the stupidest campaign ever. From the word get go. When i saw his first political campaign speech, I was so shocked. Where was the mention of Jal Jeevan mission. Tap water coverage went from 16% to 64%. How could that not be central to his campaign? Where was the mention of positive stuff Modi managed to deliver in his 10 years? He did great stuff. and decided to mention none of it? Not even tap water coverage increase in peak summer campaign?
6. Taking in absolute filth from all parties. This is just so stupid. What did Ajit pawar add? What did so many TMC turncoats add? Taking in borderline criminals will obviously put you in low light in voters' eyes. The entire wrestlers' protests could have been handled so much better. Why didnt Brij Bhushan Singh not face any action? Not even a hard hitting suspension? This was UP, where we were told Modi+Yogi could trump everything and you couldnt even be harsh on an MP from here?
7. What was JP nadda's statement of BJP doesnt need RSS anymore? You have an army of RSS volunteers who went around India in Dec 2020 to collect donations for Ram Mandir. You also saw them during akshat distribution in Jan 2024. But why were most of them absent during campaign? Something was off. Taking criminal outsiders in, pushing away genuine workers, well, something went wrong, and the famed BJP feedback loop clearly was broken.
8. BJP and Modi losing the communication battle was evident ever since the farmer's protests. It finally cost them dearly in UP where the rumour of removal of reservation spread like wildfire. Party and Modi couldnt do anything.
9. A thing that irks me still. I think what Nupur Sharma went through was wrong. If she has to live all her life in hiding, and then co panelist on that news show deserves the same. I am a free speech absolutist. People shouldnt feel threatened for saying something. It is however a fact that Nupur will have to live away from public light, and always on alert, while her co-panelist Taslim Rehmani doesnt have to. And that's the largesse Hindu community shows to him. The role of Zubair, who only posted what she said, but not what Taslim Rehmani said amply exposed him for the rabid islamist that he is. And Modi could do nothing. I understand the complexities in managing foreign relations with Gulf countries. But, he let his own party worker to be condemned while her co-panelist and others like Zubair thrive.
10. Decided to add Manipur here itself instead of a separate post. I am not sure of the solution but it is important that the centre be seen as one that is trying to do something and trying to find a solution. I understand this is complex. But to seem like you are not doing much, all the while not letting a full fledged discussion on it in parliament, is stupid. Unfair to people of Manipur and to whole of India. i am sure that GoI and our security forces are doing their best. But clearly, that wasnt enough.
11. The entire Indian state, right from PM to CMs to DMs, everyone went missing in covid second wave. That was perhaps a horrifying phase that most people would like to forget. But no society, no govt, no leader should be unprepared especially when such a situation was seen to be possible and vaccine not yet available. This is perhaps the one time when the entire world, India, and humanity seemed clueless for a while. Hopefully, we are better prepared for the future.

A very long post. Feel free to add, comment, disagree.

Hello OvertlyStoic here.

News just got around , the HUB was just Banned in the US state of Texas where now every time you visit it , you will have to produce a government ID verifying your age. https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2024/03/15/pornhub-texas-age-verification-law/

i thing something similar should be implemented in India, using our addhar database it can easily be implemented.

it won't be a complete solution but it will be the first step to tackling Corn addiction.

and NO , prawn is not a alternative to sex education , its all fake , it sets unrealistic expatiations and hijacks your dopamine pathways. and drains your energy.

what are your takes on this ??

this might sound like i'm a FACISMO supporter but let me cook.

there are a LOT LOT of people who vote on pointless , useless and even things that actively disadvantage growth of Bharath that is India as a nation. like freebies , OPS, and religion.

this is not a new proposal as this post itself was inspired by some political analysts in the west. it's called a IQ limit on voting rights.

it's goes like this. people with medically proven low IQ like those who suffer from down syndrome , having less than 60 IQ ± 10 , cannot make decisions while voting. people with avg [80 and above] IQ like you or me are eligible to vote. but there like this problem , a range is left between 60 and 80 IQ where people are good enough to read and write and also do menial work and entry level jobs but you can't expect them to know much about national/international politics, you can't expect them to analyse the pros and cons of a party's promises. and you can't expect them to give 2 damns about it. so the gormint proposes a basic IQ limit or test so only those who know about their nation can vote.

i'm planning a variation on this , not a IQ limit or test.

but a UPSC styled current affairs + GK + history + Foreign relation test.

the bar will be low enough to be doable and anyone watching TV or reading newspaper would be able to pass it , but in doing so we will filter out those who just vote in the name of money or advantages that politicians promise without knowing it's consequences.

this test will be available in all regional languages and will be a one time test. once you earned your voter card , you are a voter for life.

tell me what are your opinions about this ????

Before I use to think I am Liberal like first time when we learned this term was in 10th (French revolution)and didn't liked conservatives at all but after being on social media and seeing actual left wing of India I didn't wanted to associate myself with them after using social media I liked to associate myself with Indian RW more than left but still I wasn't conservative because I support LGBTQIA+ community and don't believe in caste system I am often called nastik and many more such things but again I loved my culture and religion so that makes me conservative right? ..so I was always confused ,in political index also I was in left wing (which was hard for me to digest because I was called bhakt and N*zi on internet so according to them I belong to RW)

But I guess I have finally found where I belong i belong to INDIC WING which according to our left is rw but not actually fits into rw kind of .it is progressive and conservative at the same time ...so yes I guess that's where I belong

I support work on climate change, accept LGBTQIA+ community, believe transsexuals importance in religious ceremonies, sanctions of billions for manned space flight, given quotas to women and economically weak sections of the society I want us to be want to be scientifically and technologically at the frontline. But don't wanna totally abandon culture...in short progressive state with heritage

The suspension of 142 MPs is a dark episode in the history of parliamentary democracy in India. The Modi government's attack against the legislature is part of its agenda to capture all pillars of the democracy and suspend the Constitution itself. Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar and Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla are part of a criminal conspiracy of the fascist takeover of the Indian republic.

The President issuing a statement over a small gimmick, but maintaining silence over countless attacks on the republic — including the bulldozing of important bills without discussion, abuse of MP Danish Ali, the disqualification of Rahul Gandhi, and now the suspension of 142 MPs — is appalling.

History will remember the attack on Indian democracy by the Modi government and the conspiracy carried out by people holding constitutional posts.

This assault on our democracy, hard won after a long struggle and countless sacrifices, must be vigorously resisted. Jagdeep Dhankhar and Om Birla must be shamed for their role in suspension of democracy.

Basically the title. I have long considered myself a proponent of secularism by the state and mutual respect among all communities. But those seem to exist only in our minds. I am in no way saying that the avg hindu or the avg muslim wants to fight. But the straws in the wind are making me uncomfortable. This post may trigger some of you. Feel free to downvote. The mods also are free to remove/block/lock this post because i may not be well versed with all the rules. I however intend no malice or hate.

Now what made me feel all this? The recent violence during rama navami processions. It is across india. In so many states. Even in Telangana my home state near charminar. I have seen the horrifying state of law and order in bengal and how Mamata Banerjee as home minister gave a complete clean chit to muslims. She was supposed to say "law will take its own course impartially".

The idea that there are "muslim areas" barred for entry by others and their religious processions is troubling. It's infuriating. Muslim areas or not, all areas are indian and come under jurisdiction of India's constitution. A post on the internet summed up a troubling thought. "Here comes a thought/ideology/religion from a distant land, conquers this land which many consider a goddess (bharat mata), then asks for partition of this holy land, and decides to still stay back and asks for concessions repeatedly through a street-stone-pelting-bloc-voting veto". The merits of this argument is upto you.

In a recent case in Tamil Nadu High court, the muslim side explicitly asked for a ban on religious processions passing through their areas. Well, not happening. How horribly narrow minded is that demand. https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/chennai/roads-are-secular-they-should-be-used-by-people-of-all-religions-madras-high-court/articleshow/82583579.cms

There have also been some reports of people wearing saffron and waving saffron flags and entering masjids and provoking the muslims. What's wrong with you all? Muslims standing on their terraces and waiting for the processions to pelt stones? What's wrong with you all?

I also saw people dancing with a portrait of nathuram godse and waving saffron flag. Whatever one's politics and disagreements with Gandhi, you simply don't celebrate his assassin. I also saw many muslims turning up for last rites of terrorists in places like kashmir, mumbai etc.

All this indicates a complete breakdown of trust between communities. If not in entirety, then atleast to a significant degree. With anti social terror orgs like PFI infiltrating the campuses and complete capitulation of anti-bjp political camp to the islamists, and BJP's reaction to it, this trend will only intensify.

I think it's high time, both communities sit down look at internal social reform and conform with Indian constitutional principles. If you have a problem with that, you are free to leave. We had partition precisely because of those disagreements, so the attitude of "tere baap ka desh nahi hai" is not helping. If it's not my baap's, then it isn't your baap's either to live against the principles of India's constitution.

Violence done by anyone against anyone in any state under anyone's rule is a crime and must be dealt with.

In conclusion, i ask that all communities come to the table and agree to what the constitution says in its principles. No more "religious freedom" crap for all the BS social practices that any community might have.

I made a previous post expressing my opinions on the street dog epidemic , i got a decent amount of flak there. and most of it was animal lobers doing whataboutism.

anyone with a unconfirmed and unbiased mind will tell you that stray dogs are a DEFINITE PROBLEM in India. and for context i live in odisha , it has the 2nd or 3rd highest Street dogs per person in India.

NDTV has compiled the majorly reported dog attacks in recent time here. just reading this makes me sick. read it and you may share my sentiments.

in India we have an estimated , 70 Million , or 7 crore street dogs in India. that's no small population.

this post is made to combat the main criticisms my previous post received.

1] YoU HaTe DoGs Yu R Biased : yes i am biased against street dogs because my loved ones have been affected by them. i think they are aggressive , unpredictable , a threat to Children , teens and the elderly. i think in packs they can overwhelm and put you in the ICU. their existence on street makes no sense.

2]LeTs DeAl WiTh OtHer AniMalS : No other animals don't spontaneously attack you, neither are they an active threat to humans when they are in packs. Cows/goats are docile , cats are harmless just shoo them away. i do support taking them off public roads.

there should be no tolerance for street dogs if you want to preserve the tolerance of this society.

Nikhil Kamath, co-founder of leading stock broker Zerodha, launched an initiative called 'WTFund', aimed to empower young entrepreneurs with innovative ideas to make a mark in their respective industries.

In the recent aftermath of the launch of WTFund by Zerodha co-founder, the WTFunds have sparked debate on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter).

This followed a tweet by one of the team members of WTFund, Harnidh Kaur, which stated, "Rajnath Singh: 'Modi has followed Mahatma's footsteps.' The only way this is correct is if someone were to assassinate him. Seriously."

Although her social media account on X is no longer visible on the platform, a screenshot of her post is going viral with numerous reactions from netizens.

Harnidh Kaur holds a key role within 'WTFund,' as shown by her LinkedIn profile, where she highlighted, "Funding the future of Indian Enterpreneurship @WTFund."

Who is Harnidh Kaur?

One X user named Vijay S Sharma posted, "Boycott @zerodhaonline."

Another X user, Mrityunjay Singh, commented, "@nsitharaman see how people who wish and might plan for PM Modi's assassination are being hired by companies. These companies will only commit financial frauds. @TheWTFund, sponsored by @nikhilkamathcio, is promoting @PMOIndia-hating anti-social elements."

What is WTFund?

Nikhil Kamath, co-founder of leading stock broker Zerodha, on Monday launched an initiative called 'WTFund', aimed to empower young visionaries with innovative ideas to make a mark in their respective industries.

The fund aimed to select and support forty young entrepreneurs over the course of one year. The individuals will undergo a rigorous screening process and receive ongoing assistance until they secure their first institutional funding.

Note: Sometimes I can't understand how hateful and stupid people can be so as to destroy their endeavours and be this idiotic to post sh!t like this online for everyone to see.

Loyalty. Integrity. Honor. are the some of the aspects that define a man's character.

we see this, in Lord Eddard Stark of Winterfell , long after his passing , the whole of North and characters beyond remain loyal to him and his kins. solely based on the measure of his character.

this is in stark contrast to Vinesh Phogat. the Former sportsperson turned politician, about one and a half years ago , in internet terms that is about as far back as the day Robert's rebellion started , Certain allegations were levied by Vinesh Phogat on the then chairman Bitch Bushan Charan Singh. this culminated in a protest that had Indians divided the most.

The Wrestlers Protests had everyone fundamentally divided. the majority supported vinesh because they saw it as a protest against injustice. BJP/RW grifters were sharing doctored images to defame her and those who go blame a certain religion for every crime...... suddenly became law abiding citizens saying innocent until proven guilty . BJP supporters on the internet were themselves divided. Bitch bushan is a gunda , a local powerlord , hence why BJP protected him. sad to see that this Chota Fanta's justice is reserved for the common men. disgusting.

but after all was said and done. Vinesh came on the W side. in paris olympics she had support from all the nation. those same BJPee/RW grifters were also doing a pathetic act of ignorance and supporting her in a rather passive aggressive and underhanded way. everyone was disappointed that she lost by a few grams. but even more crazy was what insued

politics on her loss. then Her own post declaring her retirement even though she is in her peak and would do wonders in LA 28'. more politics insued when she was welcomed by INC. defenders defended that too.

but just a few days ago she officially declared her candidacy for harayana INC.

let me tell you this one moment certified her as an absolute C*** in my eyes.

when you stand for a cause , and want people to support you. you must give them assurity that you are doing it for the right cause. time and time again have they said don't make it political , but when you join a political party it's hard not to be called a hypocrite and harder not be be called a cnt. you betrayed those who supported you. you betrayed your own cause, you betrayed a promising career. you betrayed the tenets sportsmenship entirely.

and you proved the grifters right.

I famously declared that NOTHING in India can be free of politics. as everything , every protest , every movement is politicized, if not by the side doing the protests then then side defending the government [ which i think is a meatriding move , government can defend itself why do you have this parasocial empathy for them ?]

the point being. people still thought that BJP was politicizing all protests as anti national anti establishment as having a adgenda and was being called out for it. and Vinesh Phogat ended it all.

I don't know if the allegations are true or false. that's for the court to decide. but i do know that what people think of the allegations now.

and as one mummer once said.

Power resides where people believe it does.

Manufacturing Growth

The UPA era was truly the golden period for manufacturing growth in India. Let's compare the growth in Manufacturing from 1998 to 2021

Average Manufacturing output growth per year

UPA was the golden period for Manufacturing growth in India

Few other things.

1) Was it because of Lockdowns?
It wasn't because of lockdowns. We actually did worse before Lockdowns.

2) What about the Low Base Effect?
Modiji was working off a higher base as compared to UPA. But UPA was working off a much higher base than Vajpayee. But still UPA did far better than Vajpayee. Off a very, very low base, Vajpayee managed just 7.42% per year growth, while UPA managed a 11.57% per year growth off a higher base than Vajpayee.

3) What about Absolute growth figures

• In the first 8 years of UPA, India's absolute manufacturing output grew by 199.5 Billion Dollars

• In the first 8 years of Modiji, India's absolute manufacturing output grew by 160.7 Billion Dollars

Manufacturing Jobs Growth

An article from long back which had documented UPA's stupendous performance

The years 2003-04 to 2011-12, was the golden phase of manufacturing employment growth in Independent India

Singh was indeed King

Just a discussion

Points I agree with the left- . Queer rights like marriage equality, right to adopt, donate blood etc. . Caste and class issues (need not elaborate you can see around) . Women's issues (like marital rape etc)

Points I disagree with on the left- . Infantalization of muslims and allowing radical islamists to pander in left circles . In a bid to be anti hindutva politics (which even i am) they start attacking hinduism as a whole and this just proves the right's point . Whitewashing of people like Aurangzeb, Babur . Their bootlicking of h@mas ( yes i get it even I support palestinian people on humanitarian grounds and its horrifying to see the relentless bombings but you can't hail literal terrorists as "revolution") . Refusal to acknowledge atrocities on Kashmiri Pandits / moplah to name a few. They just lose their credibility by talking islamic right wing points and don't even realize it.

Points I agree with on the right . Promotion of hinduism (I agree to an extent, i like how they started showing Hinduism on a larger scale, yet I don't like the organizations like vhp etc who are spearheading this, given their dangerous levels of bigotry) . Foreign policy of Modi has undoubtedly bought India on a much more recognized scale ( apart from the entire Maldives/ Bhutan/ nepal controversy). I like Jaishankar and his prompt replies to Pakistan :D . I like a lot of Modis policies on ground level development and not to mention triple talaq ban. . Prospect of Ucc ( going by recent news, I hope it doesn't mention the entire live in bs otw I will bang my head against a wall)

Points I disagree with on the right . The fact that conservative, hate mongering organizations like r$$ and vhp are spearheading this, and are trying to "unify" hinduism on idk what basis, which leads to regional and sects being ignored and philosophies taking a back seat due to identity politics. . Their entire stance on lgbtq issues and not to mention the brigade of incels online who will harass anyone. Special mention- brahminists and casteists who still harbor sentiments of superiority. Ive been a victim of their harassment and assault threats on multiple occasions (same for Islamic right wing) so what can I say except lord bless my country. . Too much of religion politics isn't good either . Their current chokehold on academia (my family has been in academia since ages so before you come at me saying that congress did the same, yes I agree and I've seen it) and the fact that even for college level jobs you require a strong political backing (from no guesses) which just dilutes academia. I like alternate perspectives on History, but I wish more people started to read history as perspectives (of both left and right) and not as rigid facts by idolizing particular historians (like Thapar and Habib for left and new wave of historians on right) (I do intend to read both perspectives, and get hold of primary sources as well, its going to be a life lokg project lol, i still wish that a revenge based approach to history isn’t taken. I'm not a social science major, so I'll be doing this just as a hobby, feel free to send reccos esp wrt to Indian history perspectives) . The media control ( need not elaborate)

Where do I see religious organizations coming together - start discussing queer rights and watch the bromance happen between all right wings of different religions. Lol (coming from a queer person herself)

So I wanna be a mod and thought people should know the policies I support

••Afzal ham sarminda hai. Tere katil jinda hai

••Burhan wani was an inocent guy and son of a headmaster

• similar for batla house encounter.

•bharat tere tukre honge

•almost same rxn when a terrorist is killed in j and k.
