@somnath1978 BJP and Sanghis are hell-bent on opening up past debates unnecessarily to polarize society even more! RW idea of healing is to mutilate past wounds harder.

Far frm "rejecting" Vande Mataram, Tagore set the poem to its original tune. Folks have no issues singing "God save the king" in UK, but VB is a matter of contestation...
Asaduddin Owaisi@asadowaisi
Vande Mataram is an ode to a goddess. It cannot be treated on par with the national anthem. Jana Gana Mana celebrates India and its people, not a particular religion. Religion ≠ nation. The man who wrote Vande Mataram was sympathetic to the British Raj and despised Muslims. Netaji Bose, Gandhi, Nehru, and Tagore all rejected it. The Preamble to the Constitution of India begins with “We, the People” — not “Bharat Maa”. It promises “liberty of thought, expression, belief, faith and worship”. The very first provision of the Constitution, Article 1, describes “India, that is Bharat” as a Union of States. In the Constituent Assembly, some members wanted the Preamble to begin in the name of a goddess; they specifically invoked Vande Mataram. Others wanted it to begin “In the name of God” and to replace “its citizens” with “her citizens”. All these amendments were defeated. India, that is Bharat, is its people. The nation is not a goddess; it does not run in the name of a god or goddess, and it does not belong to one god or goddess. timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/cabinet-…

Why do people not do this discourse about Nikola Jokic/Jamal Murray every summer?
I haven't even seen this many conversations about duos like Paolo Banchero / Franz Wagner, who have not yet accomplished anything together.
Does Boston just generate more clicks?

@ProfVemsani @nytimes Even Days: I am a proud Hindu Nationalist
Odd Days: Hindu Nationalist is a slur. It's hinduphobia:D
English
What is “Hindu nationalist party” New York Times? @nytimes I don’t see you calling Conservative Party anywhere like that- what about Christian nationalist party and Muslim nationalist party to refer to conservatives elsewhere? Can you do that? It is #Hinduphobia if you are using this as a pejorative against only one religion and not any other religion. Narrowly applying such terms to only one religion is called targeting. @nytimes @nytimesworld change it!

I know Dhurandhar part 1 was released last year but I only got time to watch it yesterday & day before ( had to split into two days due to its length ). I must say - excellent direction , fantastic script & very good acting by Ranveer Singh ! I loved the way Aditya connected old hindi songs with certain scenes . Hats of to @AdityaDharFilms

@drshamamohd It showed the party you seemed to represent in extremely bad light and showed how demonetization was a masterstroke and the current regime is the savior! But yeah, it wasn't propaganda!

@AS2003017AB @NewsArenaIndia 100 years of same party ruling your state isn’t democracy! People should have right to elect and change regimes.

Haven't seen Odyssey's trailer, but Nolan's movies have almost done nothing for me -- yes, NOTHING -- after Inception. (I did write a glowing review of Dunkirk, because it worked for me then, but it hasn't stayed with me since, even for a fleeting second.)
And yeah, fuck Oppenheimer.
I'll say it again: Fuck Oppenheimer.
Spencer Askew@spencer_askew
“The Odyssey” trailer simply looks boring. I remember everyone trying to convince me that Dunkirk was some sort of masterpiece. Same with Tenet. Oppenheimer had its moments of brilliance, but I really believe it only stood out because of how extraordinarily bad Hollywood had been for the years before (and Cillian Murphy is legitimately talented). All that to say, Nolan hasn’t really had a good film in twelve years (Interstellar), and he’s eighteen years after what is considered his best (DK).

After so many DECADES in POLITICIS and 15 years as C M , I can’t believe that @MamataOfficial is ignoring that DEMOCRACY by it’s very DNA is about INSTITUTIONS and attacking them amounts to attacking DEMOCRACY

Imagine the rot of a community that sees “live peacefully and go on about our day” as a reluctant compromise. Just take a minute to process that.

@AnantGuptaAG They are also, without realizing it, somehow arguing in favor of mass disenfranchisement and that elections were legitimate.

Amazed to see that data gyanis have muddied the waters wrt the Bengal SIR.
It is quite simple:
1. The SIR was not just about electoral math, but about citizenship politics in Bengal.
2. Why look at who won how many seats? The point is who lost and how.

Lost in SIR debate: Muslim attrition from TMC
Muslims on the electoral roll, rather than those who were possibly disenfranchised because of SIR, might have played a bigger role in the TMC’s poor showing this time.

@StoolGreenie Rewatched Q4 Game 2 against the Knicks, they missed 12 or 13 straight points. Out of which most of them were 3s. Once NY took the lead, JB tried to go to the paint and the only FG scored was Tatum running into the rim. He had an open runaway at the end too but settled for a mid

Celts take 39 3PA in a Game 5 loss, while missing 13 of 14 2pt FGA in the 4th quarter

Spurs take 36 3PA and shoot 28%, including missing a 3 at the buzzer

It always makes me laugh

@StoolGreenie i think in playoffs especially when there is a 1-2 point game in the clutch, and when you're not shooting the ball well all night. Makes sense to drive to the rim. There is no time to play the law-of-averages game.

@rubenmasc So much arrogance from a party who's going to lose Punjab soon as well to the BJP!

Delhi too.
Or you won’t mention Delhi, because you are more happy with our loss than you being reduced to Zero for the 3rd consecutive election.

Assam and Bengal are clear cases of the election being stolen by the BJP with the support of the EC. We agree with Mamata ji. More than 100 seats were stolen in Bengal. We have seen this playbook before: Madhya Pradesh. Haryana. Maharashtra. Lok Sabha 2024 etc चुनाव चोरी, संस्था चोरी - अब और चारा ही क्या है!
