Shahnawaz topped BTech from VNIT. Comes from a wealthy middle class family. Father is an academic. Shahnawaz converted his wife Basanti, now Khadija, and started working for ISIS. Nabbed yesterday, he was about to plant high-intensity explosives at Ayodhya. You can't stop this.

Your Gen Z leader can't cancel his pre-planned vacation to Switzerland for their first protest at Jantar Mantar in India and you all think he will bring justice and order in the Country 😭

This is the crowd gathered at Thyagaraj Sports Complex today for Youth for Viksit Bharat- MY Bharat Youth Convention They are all youngsters and GenZ Compare this with crowd at Jantar Mantar at Cockroaches protest. More media people the man the protesters

“Do-teen crore log jo online jama hue the, aur online jama hokar inka support kar rahe the, unka ek ansh barabar bhi humein yahan dekhne ko nahi mil raha hai.” ~Arfa Khanum Sherwani, after zakhm pe zakhm, at the Jantar Mantar protests. Kya karein, Arfa? Jaise ek machhar ne aadmi ko hijra bana diya tha, waise hi bahut saare ‘aiso’ ne milkar cockroach party ka hi kaat diya.

So my friend @PrateekUvacha went to observe the protest by CJP. Great Civic Sense shown by the protestors. See for yourself.

So the so-called Cockroach Protest flopped exactly as expected. Not even a hundred organic supporters turned up, and frankly, that outcome was predictable from day one. Online activism is easy. All you have to do is hit follow, repost a few hashtags, and convince yourself you're part of some grand revolution. Real-world mobilisation is a completely different game. Who is going to leave their studies, job, business, or daily routine, travel to Delhi in 42°C heat, and stand on the streets for a cause they don't genuinely care about? Historically, only two kinds of people show up for protests. First, professional agitators, the NGO activists, comrades, student-politics regulars, self-styled farmer leaders, political aspirants, and others whose entire relevance depends on remaining permanently aggrieved. Second, people who truly believe in a cause and are willing to bear personal costs for it, whether it is religion, reservation, language, or some issue that directly affects their lives. The Cockroach Janta online ecosystem fits into neither category. Its followers are largely urban youth, students, and working professionals who join such trends because they are fashionable at the moment. It gives them the feeling of participating in something meaningful without requiring any actual sacrifice. The reason they never show up on the streets is simple: they are not suffering in real life to the extent they claim online. Today's turnout exposed the gap between social media noise and ground reality. Viral posts, trending hashtags, and inflated follower counts create the illusion of a mass movement. The moment people are asked to step away from their screens and show up physically, the illusion collapses. Hopefully, the Cockroach Party leadership received a much-needed reality check. Online gimmicks do not automatically translate into real-world support. In fact, Delhi has seen larger organic gatherings for street dogs opposing a Supreme Court ruling than the combined strength that assembled at Jantar Mantar today.

Who's she? -A Class 9 student. Why has she come to the CJP protest at Jantar Mantar? -Because the Israel–USA war is going on. Who asked her to join the protest? -Her coaching institute. I rest my case.....

Ajaz Khan has nearly 6 million followers on Instagram. For years, he has posted videos on various topics. Many of those videos got millions of views. Thousands of people like, comment on, and share his content. With such a massive online presence, he apparently believed he could translate that popularity into electoral success. So, he contested the 2024 Maharashtra Assembly election from the Versova constituency. The result? Ajaz received 155 votes. NOTA received 1298 votes. Think about that for a moment. Millions of followers. Millions of video views. Thousands of shares and comments. Yet only 155 votes in the election. Those 155 votes may have come only from his family members. It is a reminder that social media influence and ground reality are often two very different things. The internet is not always an accurate reflection of the real world.

Sagarika Ghose, Babul Supriyo, Shatrughan Sinha and Mahua used to say since 2021 that Mamata Banerjee should be the PM candidate Today, look how the wheel of fortune has turned. Mamata could not even save her own party in her state - a party she herself formed after breaking away from Congress Mamata Banerjee could not even save her own Assembly seat, and these four jokers considered themselves great political experts And it's not like these four are Mamata's biggest well-wishers. The day the party becomes weak and they start fearing for their Rajya Sabha and Lok Sabha seats, they'll be the first ones to start criticizing Mamata In reality, these are just selfish people. They only want to enjoy the perks of power and position. They are loyal neither to the public nor to the party But after the kind of authoritarian and inhumane politics Mamata has practised for 15 years, this is exactly what she deserves. And if I were to be a little harsher, I'd say she deserves even worse than this.

Modi-hatred is almost a requirement to be called an "intellectual" in some circles. We have to counter them, so let's recall some history. Congress had left Punjab, Kashmir, Assam all burning. The Naxal menace had made middle India ungovernable. Bihar and UP had become lawless. Bengal stagnated and deteriorated. Today, Bengal has been rescued from the lawless TMC. For the first time since my childhood, we can discuss development and progress in all these states. We can disagree on specific paths to development, but at least we get to have that conversation. These achievements did not happen magically. They required a lot of hard work and sacrifice - and all of it happened democratically. Let us not forget that Congress used Article 356 very often to dismiss state governments and now they lecture us on "democratic values". If we elect the wrong crowd, we risk losing all the gains we have made. Modi and Shah have provided strong and resolute leadership that has allowed these useless intellectuals to indulge their Modi hatred. Deep down, even they know the truth.

Absolute opposite of Bengaluru, the most lively city as far as potholes and road rage is concerned

Ahmedabad is a hopelessly boring Tier 2 city. Please don’t move here. Living here is an absolute nightmare: • Zero Adrenaline: Women are just casually roaming around at 2 AM eating ice cream without fearing for their lives or dodging intense police naka bandis. Where is the survival thrill? • No Linguistic Pride: If you don't speak Gujarati, nobody even threatens to beat you up or smash your shop's signboards. They just awkwardly reply in broken Hindi. Absolutely no passion! • No Traffic Trauma: The roads are so wide and well planned that you actually reach your destination in 20 minutes. How am I supposed to finish my audiobooks or rethink my life choices during a 3 hour bumper to bumper commute? • Missing Action: Someone bumps into your vehicle, and they just say sorry and pay you instead of pulling out a hockey stick. No street fights, no "Tu jaanta nahi mera baap kaun hai." So dull. • Zero Aesthetic Culture: No underground drug or Udta Punjab vibes. Just boring, safe, sober families existing everywhere. Honestly, it’s unbearable. Please stay in your happening metro cities, enjoy spending half your life in traffic and keep breathing that sweet AQI 1000 air.

In defense of Indian 🇮🇳 democracy! During Prime Minister Narendra Modi most successful visit to Norway a minor incident happened. A Norwegian journalist demanded that the prime minister starts holding press conferences. She claimed that Indian democracy is in bad shape. May be its time to pause? May be its time to be a bit curious to the world’s largest democracy? Two weeks ago five Indian states and territories held elections. The turn out in the battlefield state of West Bengal was 94%. In the last local election in Norway it was 62%, in many European local elections turn out is below 50%. Can voting in massive numbers be a signal Indians trust their democratic process? In the same election BJP won big in Assam and West Bengal. It lost even bigger in Kerala and Tamil Nadu. Can this diversity be a signal that Indian democracy is reflecting the will of the people? The journalist referred to a democracy ranking putting India at 157 in the world, behind many dictatorships and deeply troubled states. When a ranking is so obviously contrary to common sense, why not ask critical questions to those making the ranking rather than demand that leaders shall comment on nonsense? I recommend Salvatore Babones book “Dharma democracy”. The book debunks convincingly the flawed methodology of these rankings. It was referred to a ranking claiming it’s very dangerous to be a journalist in India. Reality is that it is more dangerous to be journalist in the US and far more dangerous in the vast majority of other nations in the world. Let’s be real. India is not perfect. Of course there are incidents. India has a population the size of North America, South America and Europe combined. But India is much more peaceful than Europe or the Americas. That’s remarkable - given the ethnic, language and religious diversity of India and the many development challenges. Unless we consider democracy a form of government only suited for some very small, peaceful and homogeneous Western European nations, may be we should commend Indian democracy? India is the only major former UK colony which became and has remained a democracy. Its sometimes claimed that the Brits taught India democracy. If that was the case why isn’t Myanmar or Pakistan or the Gulf kingdoms democracies??? Reality is that Indian democracy is both homegrown and extraordinary successful.

Kerala Politics: Same Phenomenon, Different Narratives Fathima Thahliya belongs to the IUML, a party that traces its roots to the Muhammad Ali Jinnah's pre-Partition All-India Muslim League. In her constituency, minority votes consolidated and helped her secure victory. The narrative? A “secular” win. Shobha Surendran lost in another constituency after similar minority vote consolidation. The narrative there? “Communal forces” defeated. Minority vote consolidation for a candidate that openly bears the name of a particular religion is "secular" in Kerala. This is the strange kind of “secularism” in Kerala today

In his first speech as Tamil Nadu chief minister, Vijay said that he grew up in poverty, and that he even knows what hunger is. It's bullshit because he was my classmate in the third standard in Loyola School. His father was a filmmaker who set up his son for a career in films. It is possible that like most filmmakers his father may have had periods of financial strife but that's not the same as Tamil-grade poverty. A lot of affluent boys confuse being broke with poverty. Two very different things.

🌀Welcome to the politics of hypnosis! 🎬 Cinema Image to Leadership A cinema image built over decades suddenly becomes “leadership” overnight. 🧠 Fans, Not Questioning Citizens Fans emotionally attached to a screen character stop questioning values, contradictions, political consistency, and sudden shifts in stand. 🔁 Narrative Shift Yesterday, the same political ecosystem was called corrupt. Today, alliances with them are justified because power is within reach. ⚠️ The Real Danger When image becomes greater than ideology, and fandom becomes greater than political awareness, democracy becomes weak. 🗳️ Democracy Needs Thinkers Democracy weakens when citizens behave like fans instead of informed thinkers. ❓ Question Everything Question every leader. Question every narrative. #PoliticsOfHypnosis #QuestionTheNarrative #PoliticalAwareness #TamilNaduPolitics #TVK #Democracy #ThinkBeforeYouFollow #BlindFandom

Vijay has promised so much freebies including 3000 per month to women and 8 gm gold to girls getting married I presume, that DMK and ADMK must give him time to rule and fail. He is likely to become Kejriwal in a year or two and say "Modiji hame paise nahi de rahe aur kaam karne bhhi nahi de rahe".
