If a Muslim had changed it to green colour and posted it, he'd already have been booked for sedition. He'd face a media trial. Conspiracy theories would emerge. He'd be linked to international organisations or terrorist groups and his house would get bulldozed. He'd be jailed for decades without a trial, while his bail kept getting rejected. Meanwhile, thousands of rapists would walk free during those same decades. One country. One law. Two entirely different interpretations for two different people.

Dear @NammaBESCOM Every time it rains, Bengaluru loses grid power and thousands of DGs are started up across the city. Think about the diesel we burn as a nation just because you can't handle light rainfall. Energy imports. Forex drain. All avoidable. Other cities manage this. Please learn from them and do better. @DKShivakumar @CMofKarnataka @KJGeorgeOffice @Tejasvi_Surya

No Indian Prime Minister had visited Norway in the last 43 years. But Modi ji went. Do you know why? On February 27, 2026, Norway’s Sovereign Wealth Fund blacklisted Adani's company, Adani Green Energy. A massive oil reserve was discovered in Norway's seas in 1990. By selling this oil, Norway started generating a vast amount of money. However, Norway knew that oil would not last forever, so they created a fund and began depositing the oil revenue into it. Norway invests the money from this fund exclusively outside Norway so that its economy remains unaffected under any circumstances. This fund primarily invests money in the stock market, in lending to other countries, in purchasing properties abroad, and in renewable energy projects like solar and wind energy. It holds 1.5% of the shares of listed companies worldwide. This Norwegian fund owns shares in 7,200 companies, including Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, and Nvidia. The fund has so much money that if it were distributed among every citizen of Norway, each person would receive more than 3 crore rupees. This fund maintains high ethical standards. It does not invest in companies that manufacture tobacco, produce nuclear weapons, violate human rights, or engage in corruption. It blacklists them. It was precisely due to serious allegations of corruption against Adani that it blacklisted his company. Now understand the chronology: No Prime Minister had visited Norway for 43 years. Norway blacklisted Adani Green on February 26, and on May 18, Modi ji arrived in Norway. He got delayed only because the Bengal elections came up in between, otherwise, our beloved Modi ji would not have waited even a single moment for his friend. Is there really anything left to explain? Over in America, when a case was filed against Adani for allegedly giving a bribe of 2,000 crore rupees, a trade deal was struck with America. Under this deal, the doors of India were opened for American agricultural companies, tariffs were imposed on Indian companies in America, and India received absolutely nothing in return. A few days later, the American court closed Adani's case permanently. And now, Adani will invest 1 billion dollars in America. Do you people still have any doubt that the honor of this country is being sold to save Adani? You people think that the Prime Minister is yours, but Adani has kept the Prime Minister for his own work... Narendra Modi is compromised.

- He is our PM - He can't even read papers. - He needs teleprompters with a single word at a time. - Nursery kids can relate to him.

Great Hara$ment My Phrannd 😭

Biggest achievement of Narendra Modi in last 12 years.

The last time this man was interviewed, he behaved like gen AI. Drank lots of water and gave wrong answers.

@RahulGandhi .

The visit to Norway may continue to haunt Modi politically. The Norwegian PM appeared visibly critical and uncomfortable, while journalists repeatedly raised tough questions that he seemed keen to avoid. He should have anticipated this atmosphere, considering Norway’s long-standing global reputation for defending human rights, press freedom, and liberal democratic values.

This is Helle Lyng, a journalist from Norway. Today in Norway, after an official meeting, as PM Modi was stepping down from the podium, Helle asked, "Prime Minister Modi, why are you not taking any questions from the world's freest press?" PM Modi walked past without offering any response. Subsequently, Helle wrote about this incident on X, noting that while Norway ranks number one globally on the World Press Freedom Index, Prime Minister Modi did not take any questions from the press. As for why this other woman is staring at Helle, I don't know.

@narendramodi @jonasgahrstore Are you taking any questions from the media? Sir, please make a blog on the Northern Lights there and post it on your YouTube channel because I don't have any other expectations from you.

Primeminister of India, Narendra Modi, would not take my question, I was not expecting him to. Norway has the number one spot on the World Press Freedom Index, India is at 157th, competing with Palestine, Emirates & Cuba. It is our job to question the powers we cooperate with.

If USA ever declared that only beef-eaters could live there, all staunch H!ndus would start eating beef overnight.

Next season Michael Carrick, Xabi Alonso, Mikel Arteta, and Frank Lampard will all be managing in the Premier League. Three of them at Big 6 clubs too. We’ve almost watched a complete cycle in real time. These were the midfielders we grew up watching dictate games, control tempo, captain sides, win titles, play in Champions League finals and now they’re the ones standing on the touchline building the next era. Football really moves fast. One minute they’re competing against each other on the pitch, now they’re competing philosophically as coaches. Despite coming from similar footballing generations. Carrick leans towards calm positional football and control, Alonso feels like a blend of Spanish structure with modern flexibility, Arteta is almost obsessive with automatisms and spacing, while Lampard has always been more direct and emotionally driven in his approach. It’s the natural evolution of football. The generation that learned under managers like Sir Alex Ferguson, Carlo Ancelotti, José Mourinho, Pep Guardiola and Arsène Wenger are now becoming the managers themselves. And now a whole new generation of players will grow up seeing them as coaches first, not even remembering how good they were as players.

This is the image i will always associate with the Nashik Tryambakeshvar Kumbh Mela from now on. These trees survived at 10-15 Kumbh Mela's, surely providing shelter to many pilgrims over the decades. Couldn't survive Fadnavis raj.

Big him up . Imagine if he let Sir Alex control his affairs he would have ended up waffling on podcasts talking about class of 92 every week 😂

Hello @BlrCityPolice this is hate speech, pls take action against this?

@KianSadeghi5 seems like a great product for somebody who is fascinated by the idea of reading but not reading at all.
