@airindia AI is still the Maharaja of the Skies!

@HardeepSPuri Never thought that you too were an idiot? How can a jocular comment, whether in bad taste or good, be taken as ‘slur on Sikh community’?

The way Shri Rahul Gandhi has addressed parliamentarian and respected Sikh leader Sardar Ravneet Singh Bittu Ji, as a ‘Traitor’ crosses all boundaries of civility, decency and dignity.  It is entirely possible that he holds a deep grudge against Bittu Ji for choosing the policies of Vikas espoused by Modi Govt over the directionless Congress. But, that cannot ever justify such a slur against a proud Sikh whose own grandfather was slain by terrorists.  Calling someone a ‘traitor friend’ means he has betrayed his country. While Shri Gandhi may have many friends who are traitors, Shri Bittu is certainly not one of them.  Calling a distinguished Sikh a traitor without any basis is a slur on the entire Sikh community.  He should have known about the sacrifices made by our Guru Sahibs and our Sahibzaade to protect the Hindu faith before making such disrespectful remarks. He should’ve known about the love for the land Sikhism teaches every Sikh, and the valour with which Sikhs serve in the armed forces in large numbers to protect the sovereignty of Mother India before calling a disciple of Guru Sahibs a ‘traitor.’ His comment is a slur on every Sikh. It is an insult to the contributions made by Sikhs in every sphere. It is a slur on our faith and our love for the motherland. It is a slur on the sacrifice of Bittu Ji’s grandfather and former Punjab CM, Sardar Beant Singh Ji. Let us also not forget the desecration of Golden Temple in 1984 with the same mindset.

@RituRathaur Well perhaps the expectations of this non-professor fraud were not met!

When a respected ASI veteran like Prof. K.K. Muhammad says: “The last 11 years of BJP have been the darkest age for the Archaeological Survey of India” it should shake every Indian to the core. #Watch ⬇️

@AudreyTruschke How deep we can fall is still to be fathomed! 😢

@airindia Keep improving!

Statement of the Embassy of the Islamic Republic of Iran in New Delhi On the occasion of the Iranian nation's victory in the face of military aggression by the Zionist regime and the United States, the Embassy of the Islamic Republic of Iran in New Delhi extends its heartfelt gratitude to all noble and freedom-loving people of India — including the esteemed citizens, political parties, honorable members of Parliament, non-governmental organizations, religious and spiritual leaders, university professors, members of the media, social activists, and all individuals and institutions who, in recent days and in various forms, stood firmly and vocally with the great nation of Iran. The messages of solidarity, moral support, public statements, and active participation in peace-oriented gatherings and initiatives, during a time when the Iranian people were under brutal military assault by the occupying Zionist regime, have been a source of deep encouragement. These gestures clearly reflect the awakened conscience of nations and their commitment to justice and the principles of international law. The steadfastness of the Iranian people in the face of this blatant aggression was not merely a defense of their homeland and national dignity, but a symbol of resistance against the grave violations of the United Nations Charter, humanitarian principles, and the foundational norms of international law. The solidarity of world nations with the people of Iran is not simply a political stance — it is an affirmation of the universal values of justice, legality, and global peace. The Islamic Republic of Iran has consistently emphasized the need to uphold the principles of international law and to resist expansionist and aggressive policies. We firmly believe that the unity and solidarity of nations serve as a powerful bulwark against war, violence, and injustice. Once again, we express our sincere appreciation for the genuine and invaluable support shown by the people and institutions of the great nation of India. Undoubtedly, this solidarity — rooted in the longstanding cultural, civilizational, and human ties between our two nations — will further strengthen the cause of peace, stability, and global justice. Jai Iran — Jai Hind Embassy of the Islamic Republic of Iran – New Delhi 25 June 2025

"In today's India, nobody is willing to even hear the right thing," says Professor Ali Nadeem @Rezavi of @AMUofficialPRO while speaking with me about the recent hullabaloo over Mughal emperor Aurangzeb Alamgir. #Aurangzeb #AurangzebControversy @AMUJournal youtube.com/watch?v=vp-CwQ…

Here is an explosive account, unearthed by @churumuri, of how CIA was funding the Jansangh/RSS to destabilise the Congress govt. thenetpaper.substack.com/p/at-least-usa… Explosive excerpts : ‘John Smith revealed the RSS’s “close ties with CIA” to overthrow the Congress government of Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru. Smith made two more key charges: ▪️One, that CIA had provided "large sums of money" for RSS's anti-cow slaughter rally held in 1966 ▪️Two, the attempt to assassinate Congress president K. Kamaraj that day had been the work of RSS. M.S. Golwalkar was the RSS chief at the time.’

I recently traveled just 300 kilometers and ended up paying ₹500 in toll charges—that’s an outrageous ₹1.5 per kilometer! This comes on top of hefty Income Tax, GST, taxes on petrol, and countless others. It feels like nothing short of daylight robbery by the central government. How much more will you squeeze out of us in the name of highway maintenance? After paying nearly ₹5 lakh in income tax this year, plus GST on petrol, these exorbitant tolls amount to nothing but #TaxTerrorism / #TaxLoot . @nitin_gadkari @nsitharaman Is there any end to this relentless extortion?

🚨 Official Confirmation of China occupying our land - Indian officials confirm that China has occupied our land illegally and forcibly near Ladakh. - They have even created two new counties. - India's response: "We have lodged solid protest..." Koi aaya nahin?

@quizzicalguy Yes everyone has, so what? Is not BJP showing mullas their place? This is what counts to them

I think this time almost everyone has seen through BJP’s nautanki. They get it that it is a trick to divert attention away from Amit Shah’s comments on Ambedkar.
