I have been following the BJP for over two decades now and in the 90s people opposed to BJP would say 'no way would Article 370 ever go' or a 'Ram Mandir ever be built in Ayodhya", well here we are now and in two consecutive months Art 370 is gone & Ram Mandir is too a reality.

Hello Ankit You are not a Jain, stop masquerading as a Jain. There's nothing called as Hindu Jain. You need to be educated about Jainism . If you had any grey cells you would see what's happening in Girnar. This isn't something new, it's happened multiple times across India.

If @IPL has to have an international audience. The obsession with ex cricketers has to stop. Hire the best ex cricketers as commentators. And if not, have some excellent broadcasters who aren’t ex intl cricketers. The coverage has to have a balance, this is just bad. #IPL2022

And neither do I have anything against Indian or Pakistani cricketers. However, the least that the board can do is in the memory of the jawans martyred atleast have a black band on the arms of the cricketers to acknowledge that all isn’t ok. And other sportspersons too.

Lost my Grandmother this morning. A fighter who never gave up. Always smiling, cheerful & inspiring. Learnt everything I knew about Jainism from her. Sadly she too succumbed to Covid. I just keep thinking of those countless memories from ahmedabad where we spent hours talking. 🙏🏻

In this episode PC discovers a rudraksh mala (not kidding) on the terrorist and then then concludes that these are Indian nationalists trying to blow a bomb in NYC and blame Pakistan for it and that’s how the episode unfolds from there .. seriously ridiculous stuff.

Such stupidity doesn’t deserve a response normally, but to know the extent of the damage in North india, read this piece on why the Birla Temple in Delhi ended an era of darkness for the Hindus. .. do read and share widely

Incredible how many Sikh voices in the west who talk about human rights, are quiet about what is happening to Sikhs in Kashmir.. not one word on some TLs.. just sad how there is politics even on this where some can never seen to be taking on what is happening in Kashmir.

Folks like Vinod Dua and Abhisar Sharma are now deeply concerned about the ‘mandate’ in Madhya Pradesh. Well the ‘mandate’ in Maharashtra was for a BJP Sena govt, yet when Sena formed an alliance with NCP and Congress, Folks Like Them were the biggest cheerleaders.

Saw #BatlaHouse last night and quite liked it. Does a good job of chronicling the events during the encounter and the inquiry and so forth after it. Two sets of people will not like it: 1) Left wing activists who tried to make up nonsensical conspiracy theories about Batla House

In the last 48 hours, PM @narendramodi has given two terrific addresses in the RS and LS. Reiterated India’s commitment to reforms on the farm bills, backed the private sector and has addressed what could have been potential issues with US and Canada. Terrific moves.

[Thread] After the 2017 Gujarat Elections Delhi media had declared that Hardik Patel, Alpesh Thakor & Jignesh Mevani will essentially be the future of non BJP politics in Gujarat. Many of us knew that would never happen, and we said so then. This is what ended up happening: (1/n)

Boris Johnson doesn’t answer the question on the protests, and the guy’s reaction in the end is quite something. Guess he was expecting a Trudeau level response, and glad that Boris didn’t oblige. #FarmersProtest
