@yoga-go is one more scam with automatic renewals (at twice the intro rate)my card had been billed without my knowledge. Kindly refund this new charge. I did not even use the intro service. Anyway Day 1 should have begun only after I began the program, not from the payment date.

Hindu Extremist is calling for boycott of Himalaya and Hamdard because these companies are owned by Muslims…. Hindu extremism is mainstream…. No other country has made hate mainstream like hindus have done.

#WATCH | Delhi | "...I am surprised by the 'Lutyens' Jamaat' and 'Khan Market Gang' that they have been silent for this many years. The people who are the 'thekedaar' of PIL, those who visit Courts every now and then, why they weren't worried about the Liberty back then..." says PM Narendra Modi at NXT Conclave 2025 PM Modi says, "Britishers brought a law—the Dramatic Performance Act—150 years back... This act was there even after 75 years of independence. It means if more than 10 people are dancing during a wedding, the police could arrest them along with the groom. Our govt abolished that law. I have nothing to say to govt of that time and the leaders..." (Source - DD News)

Secularism is controlling temples but not mosques; respecting the Sabarimala verdict but overturning the Shahbano verdict; arming Muslims with the Waqf act but denying Hindus a similar act. For how long will we pretend that we are not practicing secularism but appeasement?

Praying in the middle of the highway is not about faith but more of reckless attention-seeking. When will people stop putting up with this nonsense?

@rishibagree And of course you would never put up such a video if the young men had been capless or beardless. Accusations against stupid young men can only be flung at non ‘Sanatanis’. Not at dancers in front of and within mosques for example. Or at beaters up of old men on trains.

I share your admiration for the charitable and service oriented element in Sikh culture.Though one can appreciate this without putting down followers of any other faith. In any case, my post is not about Sikhs in India, but about a sliver of activist Sikhs in the West who have (weirdly) adopted the Palestinian cause as their own.

A section of diaspora Sikhs (not all) have allied with hardline Islamists and rallied to the Palestinian cause. For those with even a smidgin of historical memory this can sometimes become a little awkward.

@neelikabhimgirl Visited Dharavi a couple of weeks ago. Walked around & did not see these trash heaps in spite of heavy congestion (1 million population with v few amenities). Did see a vibrant & productive community. Didn’t ask about caste/ religion/language etc. The population looked v diverse.

@ShefVaidya Rohingyas are refugees from persecution in Myanmar, not illegal criminals. Letting their children attend school is the least kindness one can show them in a country that says the world is our family!

The Supreme Court of Injustice! They have no time for Kashmiri Hindus, but their hearts bleed for illegal Rohingya kids, while Hindu refugees from Pakistan rot for years in makeshift tents in Delhi without schools, without electricity, without running water. But everyone loves Rohingya kids! And if this is considered contempt of court, so be it!

@TheChronology__ @wikileaks When did the US ‘state’ begin to have a ‘left’ ideology? That’s a contradiction in terms. Support for the environment, public health, food security, gender equality, is not right or left ideologically - it is humane and practical good sense.

@vijaygajera How is USAID, an org funded by capitalist USA (Musk now wants to block it for personal reasons) a left wing advocate?Is supporting environment, public health, food security, evil? The whole world isn’t focussed only on being anti-Hindu; people have other things to worry about.
