Dharma in Sanskrit is known as Dharam in Hindu and Aram in Tamil.
I know you dislike the fact that Tamil has any link to Sanskrit but your very name, Saravanan is Śaravaṇa (शरवण) meaning "reed forest" in Sanskrit and it would be pronounced Shravan in Hindi.
The word Dravida is also Sanskrit and through Bengali, it is present in our National Anthem.
Yet, your entire movement has tried to erase the deep cultural, spiritual and linguistic bonds that tie Tamilagam and Bharatam together. Tamil Nadu is Bharat.
தமிழ்த்தாயும் பாரத மாதாவும் ஒன்றே!
Bharat Mata ki Jai 🙏

@bkv0123 @subhash_kak @YouTube Right, it is पाणिनी-पाणिना नीयते इति पाणिनीः
It's said that as he handheld the learners, he is called Panini
@subhash_kak @YouTube पाणिनि not पनीनि!
AI should be taught how to pronounce Indian names. That way, Indians also may one day learn how to pronounce it correctly! Who made पडुकोणे turn into पादुकोन्? Deepika did it.

@dhruv_rathee Your existence itself is a permanent self humiliation.

Modi deserves to be humiliated everywhere he goes.
He has not given a single press conference in 12 years since he became the Prime Minister. He fails to fulfill the basic transparency and accountability requirements of being a leader.
I would like to encourage foreign journalists from other European countries to ask him questions wherever they see him, just like @HelleLyngSvends did. Embarrass him so much that he is forced to show some accountability in front of people. You will be doing great service for India’s progress.

In defense of Indian 🇮🇳 democracy!
During Prime Minister Narendra Modi most successful visit to Norway a minor incident happened. A Norwegian journalist demanded that the prime minister starts holding press conferences. She claimed that Indian democracy is in bad shape.
May be its time to pause? May be its time to be a bit curious to the world’s largest democracy?
Two weeks ago five Indian states and territories held elections. The turn out in the battlefield state of West Bengal was 94%. In the last local election in Norway it was 62%, in many European local elections turn out is below 50%. Can voting in massive numbers be a signal Indians trust their democratic process?
In the same election BJP won big in Assam and West Bengal. It lost even bigger in Kerala and Tamil Nadu. Can this diversity be a signal that Indian democracy is reflecting the will of the people?
The journalist referred to a democracy ranking putting India at 157 in the world, behind many dictatorships and deeply troubled states. When a ranking is so obviously contrary to common sense, why not ask critical questions to those making the ranking rather than demand that leaders shall comment on nonsense? I recommend Salvatore Babones book “Dharma democracy”. The book debunks convincingly the flawed methodology of these rankings.
It was referred to a ranking claiming it’s very dangerous to be a journalist in India. Reality is that it is more dangerous to be journalist in the US and far more dangerous in the vast majority of other nations in the world.
Let’s be real. India is not perfect. Of course there are incidents. India has a population the size of North America, South America and Europe combined. But India is much more peaceful than Europe or the Americas. That’s remarkable - given the ethnic, language and religious diversity of India and the many development challenges.
Unless we consider democracy a form of government only suited for some very small, peaceful and homogeneous Western European nations, may be we should commend Indian democracy?
India is the only major former UK colony which became and has remained a democracy. Its sometimes claimed that the Brits taught India democracy. If that was the case why isn’t Myanmar or Pakistan or the Gulf kingdoms democracies??? Reality is that Indian democracy is both homegrown and extraordinary successful.

Indeed! To conflate a Rasgulla with an Idli is not just a culinary error; it is a profound cosmological misunderstanding.
To begin with, the comparison is practically a biological impossibility. She is comparing chhena (the delicate, squeaky, pristine curd of milk) with a meticulously fermented batter of parboiled rice and black gram (urad dal). Their compositions are from entirely different kingdoms. One is an airy, spongy lattice designed to trap light sugar syrup; the other is a dense, wholesome, steamed matrix of complex carbohydrates and proteins. Their taste, consistency, structural integrity, and existential purpose share absolutely nothing in common.
But more important, her attempt to dismiss the Idli as merely a blank canvas for sugar syrup does a grave disservice to what is arguably one of the greatest engineering marvels of the culinary world.
The Idli is not a mere "bland cake." It is a masterclass in biotechnology. To achieve the perfect Idli is to balance the delicate microflora of wild fermentation over a cold night, resulting in a steamed cloud that is a triumph of gut health, lightness, and nutritional balance. It is a savoury monolith of South Indian culinary genius, perfectly engineered to absorb the sharp tang of a well-spiced sambar or the fiery depth of a molaga-podi (gunpowder) paste infused with cold-pressed sesame oil or nutritious melted ghee.
To suggest an Idli would even consent to being drowned in sugar syrup is to fundamentally misunderstand its dignity.
If this lady finds Rasgullas overrated, argue that on the merits of their sponginess or sweetness. But please, leave the noble, perfectly fermented, steamed majesty of the Idli out of your dessert-table polemics, ma'am!

பாவம் ஆண்கள்…
தங்களோட திருமண வாழ்க்கை abusive-ஆ இருக்கு என்று வெளியில் வந்து சொல்லுவது அவர்களுக்கு அவ்வளவு எளிதல்ல.
ஏனென்றால், அவர்கள் வலியை சொல்லும் முன்பே
“ஆம்பளையா இருந்துட்டு இதுக்கெல்லாம் அழுறியா?”
என்று கேட்கும் சமூகம் இங்கே இருக்கு.
அதனால தான் பல ஆண்கள், தினமும் மனசுக்குள் செத்து கொண்டு கூட வெளியில் சிரிச்சுட்டு வாழ்றாங்க.
அப்படி ஒருவன் எல்லா அவமானத்தையும் தாண்டி, உடைந்து போய் கண்ணீர் விட்டுப் பேசுறான்
YouTube comments-ல கூட
“நல்லா நடிக்கிறான்”
ன்னு comment பண்றாய்ங்க.
பெண் அழுதால் பாவம்.
ஆண் அழுதால் நடிப்பு.
