@VarierAravind The first person that I heard glorifying Marthanda Varma’s victory over Dutch was @sanjeevsanyal . In my history text in Kerala had a single line on Kulachal war. We should stop ‘localizing’ our hero’s

Malayali Hindutvawadis placing the photo of a foreign king whose contribution to Kerala is negligible is an example that proves Malayali Hindutvawadis are subservient to North Indian Hindutvawadis.
NOTE: We will never see North Indian Hindutvawadis glorifying the Malayali king Marthanda Varma for defeating the Dutch navy at the Battle of Colachel in Kerala. However, Malayali Hindutvawadis place photos of North Indian kings in Kerala when North Indian Hindutvawadis ask them to do so. 🤦🏻♂️

Kerala is waking up! 🔥🚩 The CHANGE is real this time. 🪷🚩

@shaandelhite This is another way of saying that he will fill institutions with people that he approves. How is it different from what he is accusing BJP of?
English
When the BJP will be defeated, India will have to go through institutions by institutions to remove some elements.
Like in education system, we cannot allow people from one ideology dictating everything.

It’s a warning to corrupts & anti-constitutionals also.

@nabilajamal_ @WisprFlow Won’t the traffic snarls negatively associate with flow? 😊
English
BENGALURU TRAFFIC NOW IS A MARKETING MODE 👇🏻
For its India launch, San Francisco-based voice-to-text app Wispr Flow (@WisprFlow) is running a 100-auto rickshaw branding campaign across Bengaluru this week
The logic being that US tech companies spend millions on digital ads to reach Bengaluru's tech crowd
Still, the city's notoriously bad traffic means commuters spend hours staring at the back of an auto rather than their phones
The team says it's a marketing opportunity no one in tech is using. Some local market research that is!

@nabilajamal_ Surprised to see where Maharashtra is on the list
English
Who has the cleanest water in India?
Sikkim leads at 91%, followed by Mizoram (92.5%) and Arunachal Pradesh (90%)
At the bottom is Delhi with just 50%, UP at 55%, Maharashtra at 58.5%
The Central Pollution Control Board flags 70% of India's water bodies as polluted, with 350+ polluted stretches across 323 rivers

@nabilajamal_ That’s quite sad. I am not a fan of many of the political jokes made by stand up comedians. But it is their right to be able to tell those jokes, however bad those jokes maybe.
English
🚨This has become fashionable.. and its spreading like rot!!
TDP supporters barged into comedian Sarat Uday’s show in #Bengaluru mid-performance
He had already apologised in December 2024. That wasn’t enough.
They demanded another apology for jokes on Chandrababu Naidu and Nara Lokesh
They tried to make him chant “Jai TDP” and “Jai Lokesh”..the comedian refused. He still apologised. Cuz he had no real choice!
@ncbn @naralokesh

@JhaSanjay So anyone who is not a blind Congress bhakt, Who questions congress governments too, who won’t blindly vote congress because Modi is not perfect 😊
English
How do you know a in-closet Bhakt?
They will always say the following three things:
“We need a strong opposition”( but vote for He Who Cannot Be Named).
When you point out the disasters, they will add: “But it also happened during the time of Congress”
“Who is the alternative?”( Despite their acute suffering)
Then, of course, there is always the dynasty.

A man like Lalu Yadav is born once in a hundred years, whom neither money can buy, nor any political party.
He chose to go to jail, but he refused to compromise.
He underwent surgery and remained in a wheelchair, yet he never compromised on his principles.,

ഏത് ദേശീയ നയങ്ങളുടെ ഭാഗമായാണ് ഇന്ത്യയിൽ വൈദ്യുതി ക്ഷാമം പരിഹരിക്കപ്പെട്ടത്? 10 വർഷം പവർക്കട്ട് ഇല്ലാതിരുന്ന സംസ്ഥാനങ്ങൾ പറഞ്ഞു തരാമോ?
ഇന്ത്യയിലെ ബഹുമുഖ്യ സംസ്ഥാനങ്ങളും പവർ കട്ടിനെ ആശ്രയിച്ചാണ് വൈദ്യുതി ഉപഭോഗത്തെ നേരിട്ടത്. വൈദ്യുതി വാങ്ങി ഒരു പരിധി വരെ കേരളം അതിനു തടയിട്ടു.
RiJOY🎧@iamrijoy
ദേശീയ നയങ്ങളുടെ ഭാഗമായി ഇന്ത്യയിൽ വൈദ്യുതി ക്ഷാമം പരിഹരിക്കപ്പെട്ടു. അതിന്റെ ഗുണം കേരളത്തിനും കിട്ടി. അത് പിണറയുടെ നേട്ടമായി തള്ളിമറിച്ച് PR ചെയ്തു. ഇപ്പോ സർക്കാരിന്റെ അവസാന നാളുകളിൽ PR പാളി, ജനം സത്യം മനസ്സിലാക്കി. ഇപ്പോ ഇങ്ങനെ ക്യാപ്സൂളുകൾ ഇട്ട് ന്യായീകരിക്കുന്നു🤦♂️

പണ്ട് കേരളം ഭരിച്ചിരുന്ന ഒരു മുഖ്യമന്ത്രിയെ ഇൻസ്പയർ ചെയ്ത് എടുത്ത ഒരു സിനിമ കണ്ടു.
ആ മുഖ്യൻ ഒരു പെരുംകള്ളനാണ്,ഒന്നാം തരം അഴിമതിക്കാരൻ, അതിൽ അഭിമാനം കൊള്ളുന്നവൻ...ജനങ്ങളുടെ മുന്നിൽ നല്ല ഇമേജ് ഉണ്ടാക്കാൻ വേണ്ടി പല നാടകങ്ങളും കാട്ടുന്ന ഒരു നേതാവ്..
അദ്ദേഹം ഒരു പെണ്ണ് കേസിൽ പെടുന്നതും പിന്നീടുണ്ടാകുന്ന സംഭവ വികാസങ്ങളുമാണ് ചിത്രം .
പടം അവസാനിക്കുമ്പോൾ പെണ്ണ് കേസ് മാത്രം ഇദ്ദേഹം ചെയ്തതല്ല എന്ന് തെളിയുന്നു. ബാക്കിയൊക്കെ അവിടെ തന്നെയുണ്ടേ.. 😄

@RuchiraC I thought presumption of innocence is a fundamental legal principle.
English
How has the Court already decided that she is innocent without any investigation?
Live Law@LiveLawIndia
Pawan Khera dragged an innocent lady into the controversy to gain political mileage...It is not a case of defamation simpliciter, his custodial interrogation is necessary, says #GauhatiHighCourt while denying #AnticipatoryBail to Congress leader

@HartoshSinghBal Yeah, I have always wondered why people won’t stick up to all their mistakes. Shows a weakness in their character

savarkar's children, an apology here, an apology there, and abject surrender to any overlord that terms them inhabitants of a hellhole
Ram Madhav@rammadhav_
What I said was wrong. India didn’t agree to stopping import of oil from Russia anytime. Also it vigorously protested 50 percent tariff imposition. I was trying to make a limited counterpoint to d other panelist. But factually incorrect. My apologies.
English
@nabilajamal_ @Iyervval That’s 10% of his followers. Can we say that we still have hopes for AAP? Or is it just the BJP effect?
English
Raghav Chadha joined the BJP and lost nearly 1 million Instagram followers in 24 hours!

@ByRakeshSimha Won’t it be terrible as we might’ve to replace the batteries every other day?
English
Replaceable batteries will extend smartphone life and cut electronic waste. In 2022, the EU had made USB C mandatory in all smartphones by April 2024 and all laptops by April 2026, thus humbling Apple which behaved like it was in a parallel universe where no national laws applied to it. It's a mystery why other large markets like the US don't implement such customer friendly laws.

Interesting how women as stereotyped by our otherwise respectable influencers

@sardesairajdeep @_YogendraYadav @raghav_chadha I thought sadness was the state of stable equilibrium for Yogendra Yadav.
English
‘Leaving AAP is one thing, joining BJP to save a Rajya Sabha seat is shameful..’ Why is @_YogendraYadav saddened by what @raghav_chadha has done despite his long standing differences with the AAP leadership? Listen in.
IndiaToday@IndiaToday
Chadha exits with 2/3rd AAP RS MPs “What has happened today is deeply saddening for democracy. Joining the BJP at this time—lock, stock, and barrel—is no ordinary move. It is part of a larger attempt to demolish the Opposition, and that is what should worry every Indian.”- @_YogendraYadav #RaghavChadha #AAP #BJP #Politics #Exodus #Delhi #NewsToday @Sardesairajdeep

@Ayudhika1310 Giving away the bride is part of traditional Christian weddings as well
English
Dia Mirza
Father: Frank Handrich
Mother: Deepa (Bengali Hindu)
Kanyadaan (a Hindu concept) isn't possible as the groom is Christian.
Deepa later married Ahmed Mirza, a Hyderabadi Muslim, after divorcing Frank.
Again Kanyadaan isn't possible as the man is a Muslim.
So how does her concept of Nanaji not doing Kanyadaan come about? And why should Dia Mirza, as a Muslim be bothered about Hindu rituals?
Has she spoken about the rituals of Christianity or Islam ever?
English
@dmuthuk Not exactly. Kozhikode can refer to the district, but Calicut can’t.
English
Quality of main stream media is becoming poorer and poorer. That's why Twitter is becoming primary source for news.
Kozhikode and Calicut are one and the same.
