UAE based Indian businessman Yusuff Ali of Lulu Group has so far donated Rs 46.5 crores to COVID19 relief including Rs 5 crores to UP CM relief fund, Rs 25 crores to PM Modi’s relief & Rs 10 cr to Kerala CM Covid fund. Pix of Lulu’s group director R. Radhakrishna with Yogi
Karma is such a bitch. A few days ago Zee TV was calling for the sealing of the Markaz building. Today their own office was sealed. As my Naani says, what goes around comes around.
The UAE law doesn’t discriminate! Today an Abu Dhabi Court fined an Arab man Dh 300,000 (Rs 62 lakhs) for his offensive social media post. All his social media accounts have been suspended and he’s been barred from using social media for one year

Why don’t Indian expats in the Gulf learn from the mistakes of their countrymen? Last month this Indian chef was sacked after my report! Many have joined the list since
I just received this -‘There’s a man on TV who wears Maybach sunglasses, a Movado watch, writes with a Mont Blanc pen and is driven in BMW cars. He is telling me that I should buy local’.
Zee News finds ‘Christian missionary angle’ in Palghar lynching. 🤷♂️. What happened is sad and shocking, yes, but blaming missionaries for the deaths is downright dumb. But then what can u expect from Zee News.
Today marks 33 years of the Hashimpura massacre when 42 young Muslims were picked from their homes by a paramilitary force, bundled in a truck & then shot dead. Their bodies were fished out from a canal. This pix was taken shortly after they were rounded up

Personal announcement:

In a first case of its kind in New Zealand, an Indian community leader lost his membership to the Wellington Justices of Peace (JP) Association after his social media posts were deemed anti-Muslim in nature. Hope the bhakts don’t blame me for this!
Would they have put Dr Kafeel behind bars and booked him under the National Security Act if his name was Dr Kamlesh? Those involved in mob lynchings are garlanded while a competent doctor and savior of infant lives rots in jail. Wah!
Stop Indian media from exporting hate to Gulf! How many of you think this could be a viable solution considering many TV channels are indeed fueling Islamophobia
#Islamophobia
Today Zee News anchor Sudhir Chaudhry hosted a show called Dhamki Jihad. The reason? Some random guy from Pakistan mocked him over a WhatsApp call. Our brave heart Mr Chaudhury even asked him if he was from ISI. He then assured viewers that he’s unafraid of these threats. Phew!
The Sikh community sanitized Delhi’s Jaama Masjid today. It’s gestures like this which restore my faith in humanity & the idea of India. Must give it to the Sikhs, they r always at the forefront of things. There selfless service has few parallels. Respect ✊ for

Mercifully, the Indian media hasn’t yet blamed Indian Muslims for the serpentine queues outside liquor shops across the country. I bet our nationalist TV anchors will be trying really hard to establish a link!
Nearly 200 people r in jail, facing investigations or court cases as a result of my stories. I’ve made many enemies and gets threats almost daily. Do they waver my resolve? Nah!
You don’t need rocket science to understand that something is dreadfully wrong in your country when destitute migrant workers are forced to pay train fares home while the govt squanders public money on showering flower petals & conducting fly pasts! 🤷♂️

Suggestion for Mr Abhijit Majumder. Why stop at five times namaaz?. It’s Ramadan. He should add Taraweeh too. It will get him more likes from his Islamophobic followers

Sudhir Chaudhury booked for Jihad Chart Episode programme. The accused presented a show that is offending the Muslim religion, says FIR against Zee News anchor
Just as I had forewarned, there are many Twitter handles impersonating Arab personalities to criticise India over Islamophobia. Thank you for busting them

Islamophobia is a real concern in the Middle East. Earlier this year I reported about an employer in Dubai who told an Indian Muslim jobseeker: “Why u need a job? Go to Delhi & sit in Shaheen Bagh for protest. Every day u will get Rs 1000. Free biryani.”
ALERT🚨:These are among several fake twitter handles who are talking about rising Islamophobia posing as influential Arabs!
Don’t fall for them! They are here to create rift. Their very existence is based on deceit & falsehood

Muslims doing well academically is a cause of concern for Sudarshan TV because it’s antithesis of everything they want Indian Muslims to be. So dear Muslims, rise & shine and contribute to nation building in whatever way you can.
Those calling for the economic boycott of Indian Muslims in the time of coronavirus, should also boycott the lifesaving products of Cipla which is owned by a Muslim. Should they get infected, they should also not use a PPE kit in case it’s one of those donated by Shahrukh Khan
70 years later, the Indian Muslim is still a 2nd class citizen. 70 years later, the life of the Indian Muslim is still crippled by the manacles of segregation. 70 years later, the Indian Muslim still lives in fear. My piece in

Spent Rs 70k on air tickets for 3 workers stuck in Sharjah since Feb. They reached Delhi on Tue but were forcibly quarantined to a Rs 3,200 per day room! The men had barely any money to buy bus tickets 2 their cities. Poor men r fodder for repatriation flights and hotels in India

Abhay Deol slams Indian celebs for talking about black lives but remaining mum on what’s happening to minorities and migrants in our own backyard! Well done Sir
The UAE has zero tolerance for racist comments against any religion. Today it ordered the arrest and detention of an Emirati media personality for making racist remarks
@sudhirchaudhary
The comments on your post pretty much say everything. You have made a living out of Islamophobia. So, you taking about ‘communal forces’ is like a pot calling the kettle black. And ur NOT a journalist. Ur shows are proof enough.
Make no mistake: What Indian media portrays as peaceful processions are essentially violent mobs that thirst for Muslim blood and looks for excuses to attack their places of worship under the watchful eyes of the police

Gutter journalism doesn’t sadden me anymore. What saddens me is the culpability of fellow Indians who happily eat any shit thrown their way by channels like Zee. The warped nationalism has blinded ppl so completely they don’t even notice the 24/7 assault on their sensibilities.
So Sudhir Chaudhry held a special show featuring interviews with COVID-19 infected Zee News staff. It was called Zee Warriors. Don’t know who needs more medical attention — Sudhir Chaudhry or his staff.
I m curious why poet Tulsidas who wrote Ramcharitra Manas didn’t write a word about the ‘demolition’ of Ram Mandir by Babur in Ayodhya. Renowned for his devotion to Ram, Tulsidas lived in nearby Varanasi & would’ve been in his mid-thirties when Babri Masjid was built
#RamMandir
Shouldn’t India’s coronavirus death toll also include the number of migrant workers who have died from hunger or exhaustion or during accidents while trying to return home?
Saddened & shocked 2 c some Indian brothers rejoicing on twitter over the Pakistan plane crash. Of course they don’t represent my country. My heart goes 2 d families of those who lost their loved ones in this tragedy. May God help them overcome their losses
#PakistanPlaneCrash
Hoarding in Lucknow ahead of Bakre-Eid. I have met many activists talking about animal rights while relishing lamb chops with mint chutney. Bloody hypocrites! I love mutton biryani and so does the whole world. Get real
Many people are reveling in the fact that 28 Zee TV staffers have tested positive. That’s so dreadfully wrong! As much as you hate the channel, you can’t be celebrating someone’s illness. Think of the families of those affected. Here’s wishing them a quick recovery

The world’s biggest food relief programme is currently underway in India, thanks to thousands of Good Samaritans who r feeding millions of poor workers affected by the pandemic. My heart goes out to them ahead of international workers day.
Today is the day when this evil man was born and whose ideology v need to defeat. Hindu Mahasabha even has a temple in Nathuram Godse’s name. So work 2 keep the Godses at bay 2 ensure that India is run by our Constitution not by Manusmiriti from Nagpur.

If you’ve the nerve to violate the UAE’s Anti-Discriminatory Law, then u ought to also ‘ve the nerve 2 bear the consequences — which in this case is a fine of AED 1 million (Rs 2 crore plus) or 5 years in jail. So beware! Read my report here:
Since public memory is short, I thought to jog it a little. Does any one remember this? “The battle of Mahabharata was won in 18 days & the fight against coronavirus will be won in 21 days”

Indian embassies in Gulf states warn against hateful messaging, so please think twice before you post any thing on social media that contravenes the law
I am keen to know if any of these Zee News staffers are tableeghi jamat members. I also want to know if they will be called superspreaders or charged and jailed for endangering public life? 28 people within the same organization is a lot!
Madhya Pradesh Police Apologise for Beating Lawyer, 'We Thought You Were Muslim,' They Say . This is Modi’s version of Sabka Saath Sabka Vikas. There r nearly 18 crore Muslims in India. You can’t wish them away. How many u will beat. How many u will kill?
UAE has condemned the statements made by the BJP spokeswoman, expressing its condemnation & rejection of insulting Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him. The UAE also affirmed its rejection of all practices & behaviors that contradict moral & humanitarian values & principles
A far more deadly disease than coronavirus is Bhakteria. Symptoms: Inability to see, listen or reason, hypernationalism

Vikas Dubey was a criminal, alright, but why punish his wife and young child? This picture of his son kneeling on the ground with both hands raised is gonna haunt us for a long, long time.
Bhakts are convinced that countries from all over the world are helping India with oxygen supplies and other Covid related equipment because they are afraid of the vishwaguru.
Twitter suspended my account 4 12 hrs becoz I posted a video of a father throwing out an Aajtak journalist from his house. The same video has been shared by many others. Wish twitter cud show d same alacrity when right wing elements were threatening to kill me and my family
There r those who ask Muslims: “when will u be satisfied?” V can never b satisfied as long as v r victims of state-patronised crimes. V can never b satisfied, as long as v r vilified as jihadis. V cannot b satisfied as long as v r lynched over food.
Imagine something like this in India. George Floyd was killed becuz he was black. Mohammad Faizan, forced to sing the National anthem, was killed by police because he was a Muslim. If u mourn for Floyd, shed a tear for Faizan too else u r a hypocrite
Shivraj Singh Chauhan, show some spine & arrest all these cops. What r you waiting for? In any other country these cops would b in jail by now.

I was the last journalist to speak to Indian Bandit Queen Phoolan Devi who was assasinated on this day in 2001. She shot to notoriety in February 1981 when she and her gang lined up 22 men and shot them one by one to avenge years of humiliation. She was just 18 then
