It's the majoritarian goons who threaten and assault minorities with full impunity from law, who are maligning the character of the nation, not those who report on these incidents.
Jun 15
"You are maligning the character of the nation by saying Muslims are not safe in India" says @KirenRijiju
Here one of many such incidents from India. A Bajrang Dal goon Ganesh Vanzara and his associates from Naroda, Ahmedabad, Gujarat, intimidating a Muslim migrant from Uttar Pradesh and ordering him to vacate his rented home in a predominantly Hindu locality. Those present can be seen cheering and celebrating the act.
The accused is himself proudly sharing this video on his Instagram account because he very well knows, Police will take no action against him. Home Minister @sanghaviharsh will not ask police to take action against the goons. Such acts of intimidation have become so normalized that even Media doesn't bother to highlight these incidents. Local Politicians don't want to comment on such issues as it will hurt their vote bank.
Sorry @KirenRijiju, If I have maligned the Nation by highlighting the fact.

Dear lordships,
- 100 RTI users have been killed for exposing corruption & thousands attacked and harassed- SC is silent.
- The Whistleblowers Protection Act passed in 2014 not implemented till date- SC is silent.
But every few days the SC berates RTI activists and calls them names- cockroaches, busy bodies, and today the Court is asking who are citizens to monitor public works! Perhaps your lordships need to be reminded that in a democracy citizens are sovereign and tax payers have a right to know how their money is spent. Courts should deal with individual cases on merit without passing derogatory remarks about those who hold power to account.

Sanghis and their obsession with modesty
Jun 15
🚨SCOOP🚨
Remember the 'Dancing Girl' from your history textbooks? Arms akimbo, bangles & necklace, she is the defining face of Indus Valley Civilisation.
But kids opening textbooks today will see a diff image.
NCERT's new Class 9 Arts textbook shades over her nude torso, which had appeared uncovered in book for at least 25 yrs, including under previous NDA govts.
Just over a year ago, NCERT tried to drop her from a Class 6 Social Science book over nudity concerns. An expert pushed back. Now, it appears to have found another way.

No need to worry. Aditya Dhar has already started writing the script for Dhurandhar 3, which will reveal how these 3 Indians were actually connected to ISI and how they were killed with the help of the U.S. military. Killing them was real masterstroke. 😮💨

Mr Das, agencies investigated, built the case, and when the case collapsed, that was reported too.
Journalism isn’t stand-up comedy, we don’t improvise facts for applause.
Also, you don’t get to decide when I can or cannot speak on women. The FoS brigade often seems to have a problem with other people’s freedom of speech.
I recommend yoga and meditation for a calmer mind. Also, keep your gyan to yourself.

This gets worse.
So not only did the US Navy fire two missiles and kill three Indian sailors they refused to rescue the 24 Indian crew despite saying they are on fire, the vessel is sinking and that they are an all Indian crew.
The Omanis rescued them.

Never forget the role that the filthy rag @nytimes played in this.
Newsclick was shut down. Journalists lost their jobs and were hounded. As always, the Godi media declared they were ‘anti-national’, ‘China funded’ etc. Will the state be held accountable for all the trauma, financial losses and disrepute this organisation and their (1/2)

They are literally bragging about hitting a tanker where almost all of the crew were Indians, and despite knowing that three Indians remain missing. This is only done to vassals, because they know the vassal leaders won't stand up to them.
