Kirti Azad shares photoshopped image to insult PM Modi, Himanta Biswa Sarma slams him for insulting culture of Meghalaya

On 21st December 2022, former Cricketer and Trinamool Congress Leader Kirti Azad shared a photoshopped image from his Twitter handle to attack PM Narendra Modi. Kirti Azad used a photograph of PM Modi in a traditional attire of Meghalaya during his recent visit to Shillong to insinuate that the PM was wearing a woman’s dress. Assam’s chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma has slammed him and accused the cricketer of insulting the culture of Assam.

It is notable that Kirti Azad also wrote a derogatory caption while sharing this image on Twitter. Kirti Azad wrote, “It’s neither male nor female. It’s just the priest of fashion.” Apparently, Kirti Azad called the Prime Minister to be a transgender person or a cross-dresser. In his tweet, Azad posted an image containing a photograph of PM Modi in the Khasi attire, and deside it there was an image purportedly showing that the attire the PM is wearing is actually ladies’ wear which is available for online sale at a lucrative discount on an e-commerce platform.

However, a cursory glance will tell that there is no such online listing for the ‘women’s attire’. Kirti Azad posted a doctored image to insult the PM. He used the screenshot of a listing for a ‘Multi floral embroidered dress’ on an e-commerce platform named Shop Pay that showed a model in a floral dress, and the image of the Khasi attire that PM Modi was wearing was copied and pasted on that image. In the badly done image editing, it is clear that it is the same attire, and that two images have been combined to create the fake image.

Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma tweeted to reply to the TMC leader and wrote, “It is saddening to see how Kirti Azad is disrespecting the culture of Meghalaya and mocking our tribal attire. TMC must urgently clarify if they endorse his views. Their silence will amount to tacit support and thus will not be forgiven by the people.”

It is notable that a Congress-supporting Twitter handle named United With Congress first shared this doctored image in an attempt to criticize the Prime Minister. Its caption read, “Hurry while stocks last.”

Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s image used in this doctored photograph is from his recent visit to Meghalaya. Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed a meeting of the North Eastern Council (NEC) in Shillong on Sunday, 18th December 2022. The meeting was held to mark the golden jubilee celebration of the North Eastern Council, which was formally inaugurated in 1972. PM Modi was seen in Khasi attire during this program.

As PM Narendra Modi is known for respecting the local traditions and wearing local traditional dresses during his visits to various places in India, he wore a traditional Khasi outfit along with a traditional Garo hat in the meeting in Shillong. Khasi and Garo are two major tribes in Meghalaya, and the PM’s wardrobe conveyed respect for them. But the TMC leader is using that to insult the prime minister, also insulting the tradition of Meghalaya.

Sanjay Raut compares Maharashtra-Karnataka border with Indo-China border, says ‘will enter Karnataka just like China entered India’

On 21st December 2022, Shiv Sena (Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray) leader and Rajya Sabha Sanjay Raut said that they (his party) will enter Karnataka just like China has entered India and that they need not take anybody’s permission for this. His remarks have come days after union home minister Amit Shah laid down a five-point action plan to resolve the border issue between the two states Maharashtra and Karnataka. Sanjay Raut made this statement in Delhi during a media interaction. However, Sanjay Raut’s comments are not only factually wrong, but they also make no sense.

Sanjay Raut said, “The union government often talks about securing every inch of land. They said that we will not give an inch to China but China entered. Just like China entered, we will also enter Karnataka. We don’t need anyone’s permission to enter. But we believe that the country is one and the matter can be solved through talks. But the chief minister of Karnataka is purposefully heating up the issue.”

Sanjay Raut further said, “This is so because there is a weak government in Maharashtra. They are not taking any stand on this issue. People like Bomai are bound to raise their voices if the chief minister and the deputy chief minister of our state don’t take any stand on an issue for which more than a hundred people laid down their lives. We don’t have any personal grudges against the Karnataka state government or the people of Karnataka. This is a seventy-year-old issue and this is an issue of humanity. The people living there are facing injustice, aggressions, and atrocities and we are raising our voices against the same.”

Sanjay Raut missed the facts while making the controversial comments

Sanjay Raut’s comments, however, are far away from the facts. The factual inconsistency of his statement covers two aspects. Firstly, Sanjay Raut said that China has entered Indian territory while the fact is that Indian soldiers in the Tawang region of Arunachal Pradesh have successfully retaliated against the attempts of infiltration by the Chinese army. The soldiers of the People’s Liberation Army of China were forced to move back after a short scuffle with the Indian troops on the border. While the Chinese military had tried to enter India, they failed to do so as Indian soldiers successfully pushed back them into Chinese terrirotiry.

Union Defence Minister Rajnath Singh has clarified this issue as he gave a statement in the parliament’s ongoing session.

Rajnath Singh said, “Our army valiantly fought back & forced Chinese troops to go back to their post. They foiled China’s bid to unilaterally alter the status quo along the LAC in the Tawang sector. Both sides have suffered some injury, but none of our soldiers is seriously injured or dead. Due to the timely intervention of Indian military commanders, PLA soldiers went back to their locations. As a follow-up of the incident, the local Commander in the area held a Flag Meeting with his counterpart on 11 December 2022 to discuss the issue in accordance with established mechanisms. The Chinese side was asked to refrain from such actions and maintain peace and tranquillity along the border. The issue has also been taken up with the Chinese side through diplomatic channels.”

Before the defence minister’s statement, the Indian Army statement informing about the clash had also said that “PLA troops contacted the LAC in Tawang Sector which was contested by their own troops in a firm and resolute manner.” LAC or the Line of Actual Control is the effective border between Tibet and India, and therefore it is clear that the clash had taken place on the border itself, and the PLA didn’t enter India as Sanjay Raut is claiming.

Sanjay Raut also said that he does not need anyone’s permission to enter Karnataka, and he will enter Karnataka just like China entered India. This part of his statement lacks sense to a great extent. In the heat of comparing the Maharashtra-Karnataka border issue with the Indo-China border issue, Sanjay Raut forgot that the Maharashtra-Karnataka border is an inter-state border within the nation and not an international border like that between India and China. Sanjay Raut, or anyone else from Maharashtra, can anytime enter Karnataka and does not need any permission already.

Despite the ongoing border dispute between the two states, there is no ban for anyone to go from Maharashtra to Karnataka and free movement is allowed across all the Indian states just like these two neighbouring states. While some states in the Northeast has the provision of Inner Line Permit and Restricted Area Permit, there is no such restriction on travel between Maharashtra and Karnata, and daily lakhs of people are commuting between the states on buses, trains, flights and other vehicles, without requiring any permission.

The comparison of an inter-state border with an international border, that too a high-tension border like Indo-China LAC, displays the sinister design of the opposition parties to divide India. Rahul Gandhi has been claiming that India is not a nation but a union of states, and such comparisons give fuel to such divisive claims.

4 cases of BF.7 variant, driving China’s Covid-19 surge, found in India

0

On Wednesday, four instances of BF.7, a Covid-19 variation that is causing a spike in infections in China, were discovered in India.

According to the reports, a 61-year-old NRI woman from the Sabhanpura neighbourhood of Vadodara tested positive for the BF.7 variant of Covid-19. Vadodara Municipal Commissioner Banchhanidhi Pani confirmed the incident and said that the NRI woman arrived from the United States to India and tested positive for Covid-19. 

While two have been detected in Gujarat, one case has been traced to Odisha.

The woman’s blood was sent for genome sequencing, and the results were returned to her on Wednesday, confirming that she tested positive for the BF.7 mutation. According to the mayor, the woman received three doses of the Pfizer vaccination. The woman was isolated at home and did not notice any serious symptoms. The woman’s condition is normal.

Two additional persons who came into touch with her have been tested, and their samples have been submitted for genetic sequencing, according to the administration.

Besides the NRI woman, a person from Ahmedabad’s Gota region has also tested positive for BF.7. The individual recently arrived in Ahmedabad and tested positive for Covid-19. His sample was also sent for genome sequencing, and the findings indicate that he carries the BF.7 variation.

On Wednesday, the health department conducted a high-level conference in Gujarat’s Gandhinagar, where authorities addressed the steps they are doing to stop the spread of the infection. Experts at a Covid review meeting hosted by Union Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya noted that while there has been no overall rise in Covid caseload, there is a need for continuing surveillance to keep track of current and new varieties in the country. 

MP: Moin Khan poses as ‘Monu Verma’ to entrap a Hindu girl, caught and handed over to the police by Bajrang Dal

0

In Indore, Madhya Pradesh, Bajrang Dal activists have caught a young man accusing him of love jihad. The name of the Muslim youth is Moin Khan. The members of the Hindu outfit caught the accused roaming around and indulging in obscene acts with a Hindu girl at Treasure Island Mall in Indore. 

When the activists asked his name, Moin Khan introduced himself as Monu Verma, a Hindu. But soon he was exposed. According to reports, when the activists asked him to produce an ID card, he allegedly confessed that his real name was Moin Khan.

Following this, the activists reportedly thrashed the youth and handed him over to the Tukoganj police.

In what transpired, Manoj Yadav, District Convenor of Bajrang Dal, had received information that a Muslim youth was roaming around with a Hindu female and engaging in obscene activities with her. Manoj Yadav arrived on the scene with the workers and caught Moin red-handed.

Following that, the Hindu activists began questioning him. At first, the accused insisted that he is a Hindu. He also said that the Hindu girl was his girlfriend and they were in a relationship for the last 5 years. The activists, who got suspicious by his body language, asked him to produce his ID card. The youth, thereafter, panicked and spilt out his real identity.

When the Bajrang Dal activists asked him why he hid his real identity, the youth said that the Bajrang Dal members catch Muslim love jihadis and put them behind bars which is why he got scared. The activists thereafter handed him over to the Tukoganj police.

Tukoganj police station in-charge Kamlesh Sharma said, “A girl approached the police station along with some Bajrang Dal activists. She had gone to watch a movie at TI mall in the city with a youth belonging to another community. Initially, the youth told the activists that his name was Monu but later when they interrogated him, he gave his real name as Moin, a resident of Manikbagh in the city.”

“We are further questioning the girl and action will be taken accordingly,” Sharma added.

Congress refuses to implement Covid protocol in Bharat Jodo Yatra as advised by govt, alleges BJP is alarmed and wants to detail the yatra

On Wednesday, December 21, Congress leader and Rajasthan CM Ashok Gehlot claimed that the Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) is alarmed by seeing the popularity of the Bharat Jodo Yatra. Gehlot said this after Union Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya penned a letter to him and Congress leader Rahul Gandhi cautioning them in the wake of increasing COVID cases in China

“The Bharat Jodo Yatra has had an impact on the country. I saw the letter from Union Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya, and they are scared,  we can see their condition. The BJP is in a state of disarray. A few days ago, JP Nadda’s Aakrosh rally in the state failed miserably,” Gehlot said.

Notably, Union Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya had urged the Congress leaders to follow standard Covid guidelines as new cases of the pandemic are rising in several countries, including China where it has reached alarming levels. Mandaviya in his letter stated that the arrangement of masks and sanitisers should be done and all the Covid protocols should strictly be followed. Besides, only those people who have been vaccinated should be allowed to participate in the Yatra. 

Mandaviya further suggested that in case it is not possible to follow the Covid protocols, Congress should consider suspending the Yatra in wake of a “public health emergency.”

Instead of taking Minister Mandaviya’s letter seriously and acting accordingly, Gehlot and other Congress leaders are politicising a serious health issue like Covid. Rajasthan CM said that “lakhs of people are joining the Yatra. Modi government is scared and that is why they are writing such politically motivated letters.”

Congress MP Adhir Ranjan Choudhary asked if PM Modi followed Covid protocols during the Gujarat assembly elections. “Mandaviya is diverting the public’s attention. 

Notably, Mandaviya has clarified that it was after Himachal Pradesh CM Sukhwinder Singh Sukhu tested positive after attending Bharat Jodo Yatra that he decided to write a letter to caution Congress leaders.

It is pertinent to mention that Congress has a history of politicising the pandemic and creating vaccine hesitancy. 

Last year, when India was struggling through the second of the Covid pandemic, Congress and the left-liberal ecosystem tried to derail India’s covid vaccination drive. Be it targeting the native vaccine manufacturers or discrediting India-made covid vaccine, Covaxin developed and manufactured by Bharat Biotech. 

Politicizing the move Congress even trivialized the cover vaccination drive altogether. Taking the ‘vaccine politics’ a level up, Samajwadi Party (SP) leader Akhilesh Yadav called Covaxin as ‘BJP’s vaccine’.

PM Modi, in his speech in Rajya Sabha, had back then slammed politicians involved in fuelling vaccine hesitancy in India.

PM Modi had said, “A few leaders of some political parties have shown immaturity in the last 2 years which has disappointed the nation. We have seen how games have been played due to political selfishness. Campaigns were led against Indian vaccines.”

In June 2021, Congress leader Gaurav Pandhi shared a document on Twitter claiming that Bharat Biotech’s COVAXIN contains newborn calf serum obtained after slaughtering 20-day-old calves. In a tweet, he wrote, In an RTI response, the Modi Govt has admitted that COVAXIN consists of Newborn Calf Serum… which is a portion of clotted blood obtained from less than 20 days young cow-calves, after slaughtering them. THIS IS HEINOUS! This information should have been made public before.” 

Ministry of Health back then had refuted the claims of Congress leader that Covaxin contained newborn calf serum. In a press release, MoH had clarified that Covaxin does not contain newborn calf serum at all. 

In January this year, Karnataka Congress leader, DK Shivakumar had called Corona as “BJP’s creation.” Just like Ashok Gehlot today ignored the threat posed by Covid, Shivakumar had back then said that he will continue with his padyatra to expedite Mekedatu reservoir project saying that “there is no covid in the country and that it is all created by BJP as it is scared of his padyatra.”

In 2020, Congress leader Harjit Bhatti had in a tweet claimed that healthcare workers in Assam Medical College were “forced” to cover themselves in plastic bags. He claimed that these plastic bags are the ones which are used to carry biomedical waste. He had alleged that there was shortage of personal protection equipments (PPEs) in Assam Medical College.

Bhatti’s allegations were amplified by the ‘liberals’ like Rohini Singh, Vinod Kapri and others. Bhatti, Kapri and others however, quietly deleted their misleading tweets after Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma called out their lies. 

The Congress party has been at the helm of all of it, from politicizing the pandemic to fueling vaccine hesitancy, trivializing indigenous vaccines, and spreading misinformation about Covid.

Congress leader shares Rahul Gandhi’s shoe pic to prove another Congress leader did not bow down to tie his shoelace

Political discourse in India has reached a new low after Congress leader Supriya Shrinate today took to Twitter to show picture of a shoe to ‘prove’ another Congress leader did not bow down to tie his shoelace because is shoes do not even have a lace.

Shrinate called BJP IT cell head Amit Malviya a ‘fake news peddler’ for sharing a video where Congress leader and former Union Minister Bhanwar Jitendra Singh could be seen bowing down and getting on his knees in what appears to be tying Rahul Gandhi’s shoelace.

At around 15 seconds in above video, one can see Singh getting down on his knees in middle of the road near Rahul Gandhi’s feet.

It has now come to Congress leaders carrying and sharing pictures of Rahul Gandhi’s shoes n their mobile phones to ‘fact-check’ political opponents amid the ‘Bharat Jodo Yatra’.

Not surprisingly, Shrinate was mocked at for sharing the picture of their dear leader.

One Twitter user asked whether it was ‘sweet or sour’, likely asking about the taste of the shoe. Often, licking shoes/bootlicking is term used to refer to those who is a servile person.

Another Twitter user wondered if there were any other job in the world which involved defending shoelaces of their boss… rather master.

Another Twitter user asked if she even know how the shoe might have tasted like.

Another Twitter user said how this picture of Rahul Gandhi’s shoe might be the wallpaper on every Congress worker.

The level of sycophancy in Congress workers is quite admirable. Not.

Saudi Arabia bans abaya in the exam halls, asks female students to conform to prescribed uniforms

On 16th December 2022, the Saudi Education and Training Evaluation Commission (ETEC) announced that female students in Saudi Arabia will no longer be allowed to wear the abaya in exam halls. It is notable that abaya is an Arabic term for a long, loose outer garment.

In Muslim-majority regions such as North Africa, the Arabian Peninsula, and the majority of the Middle East, women typically use an abaya or cloak. The ETEC has instructed the students to wear their prescribed uniforms while attempting the examinations.

According to the Ministry of Education and ETEC, which accredits educational and training systems, female students are required to wear school uniforms inside exam rooms to comply with public decency laws in the country. ETEC tweeted, “It is necessary to adhere to the attire that conforms to the regulation of preserving public decency in the examination venues, bearing in mind that it is forbidden to wear the abaya at the time of the examination.”

Abaya was earlier legally enforced in Saudi Arabia. But in 2018, Saudi Arabia announced that it will not be a compulsion anymore. Mohammad Bin Salman, the crown prince of the kingdom, announced the decision as the country’s recognition of women’s rights continues to grow, with major successes including the decision to permit women to participate in mixed-gender public sporting events and the freedom to drive effective this summer.

In an interview with CBS television in 2018, Mohammad Bin Salman said, “The laws are very clear and stipulated in the laws of sharia (Islamic law): that women wear decent, respectful clothing, like men. This, however, does not particularly specify a black abaya or a black head cover. The decision is entirely left for women to decide what type of decent and respectful attire she chooses to wear.”

It is notable that this decision to ban the abaya in Saudi Arabia has come at a time when Islamists in India are fighting a court battle to get permission for Muslim girl students to wear a hijab on educational premises despite the institutions having a prescribed uniform dress code. Agitation for this shook Karnataka at the beginning of 2022 and then the matter reached the court of law. Muslim political leaders like Asaduddin Owaisi of AIMIM also keep on making statements about hijab once in a while. Owaisi had said that he wants to see a woman wearing a hijab become the prime minister of the country.

From creating Islamic Terrorism to toppling governments to inventing fake Saffron Terror: the white man’s sophisticated suited-booted terror

Prelude

For the common man, organised terrorism was an alien idea, a phenomenon for a very long time. It suddenly hit us hard only once it became a billion Dollar industry- yes, I am using the word Industry as terrorists manufacture terrorists and terror through terrorism. It is no more a thought, a ‘soch’ a concept but a manifestation of twisted ideologies cultivated over a long period systematically.

Indians tasted their own blood and the blood of their kin in a bloodbath in Kashmir during the exodus of approximately two lakh Kashmiri Pundits from the Valley in the early months of 1990 at the hands of Islamic jihadis. Although we lost close to a million Indians in the process of partition in 1947, it could not be termed terrorism.

Therefore, Children of 1950, 60 and 70 had never even heard this word. Though the pot was always kept boiling.

Although Plane hijackings, murders of one community by another were sporadic, riots, incidents of violence and reportedly committed by extremists often related to religious beliefs were witnessed.

So, a common man thinks it is just a 30-year-old phenomenon and done by some crazy fellows proliferating into organized gangs, now called terrorist organizations. Yes, a gang is of thugs, a syndicate or mafia is also a collection of goons but ‘organisation’ gives it a corporate-ish look and feel. These are well-organised, structured, hierarchical, funded, armed and networked groups. Terrorists.

White Man’s show- the biggest bluff

But how did they come into existence? Who propped up these mercenaries? They didn’t come from Mars or the Moon. Who created terrorists? The world at large must know.

Largely these were Islamic groups. But these guys must have had some logical reasons to pick up arms and kill innocent people. The reason was hatred due to exploitation, international political scheming and selfish interests of the powerful nations controlled by the white man.

The means to get justice against foul play was to hit the soft targets to teach a lesson to the mighty forces who created them or forced them to come into being! ‘You punch me in the face and I will hit your toes with a hammer’ – as I am not as big as you- was the underlying idea. They also got maximum bang for the buck because such ghastly acts were like an apple pie for the media- sensation. It served the purpose.

The game was played on a much larger scale and size.

The root causes of this menace- white skin

The largest operator in this business of organised terror today is the Islamic network with scores of small medium and large groups working in sync to form a multi-national corporation of sorts. Often labelled as ‘non-state actors,’ these are actors created and crafted backstage by some crafty white men.

The British colonised the world over three centuries- two for sure. They lost out a big way during the Second World War and USSR and USA emerged as two big daddies.

The British hastily exited from most of their colonies leaving many in disarray.

The colonial era of the British failed at state formation and created deep fissures with the nations they exited. One major gaping wound was the partition of Bharat into Hindustan and Pakistan. Obviously, you created two constantly warring nations who hate each other even till date- as if on purpose.

Similarly, though not exactly, the creation of Israel gave birth to a series of anti-Western movements throughout the Islamic world. The growth of these nationalist, revolutionary movements, along with the view that terrorism could be effective in reaching political goals, generated the first phase of modern international terrorism. They could shoot and scoot and also take credit at hitting the larger powers where it hurts more. That was the first Islamic nail in the white man’s coffin.

American contribution on the world map.

The British left their subjects to their fate and let them fend for themselves largely.

Americans have a sacred heart, so to say.

They are the biggest manipulators and smart manipulators at that – across the world. They change regimes as often and at a whim as a common man changes his shirts!

Since the last 200 years, the US Administration at the, and from the, highest level has participated and interfered, both overtly and covertly, in the replacement of several foreign governments. In the latter half of the 19th century, their government-initiated actions for regime change were mainly in Latin America and the southwest Pacific, including the Spanish–American and Philippine–American wars.

At the beginning of 20th century, the United States engineered or installed governments in several countries around the entire globe, including neighbours in Panama, Nicaragua, Mexico, and the Dominican Republic.

After World War II, the Americans cudgelled with the USSR for global leadership, termed as the Cold War. There was a continuing war but there was no war. Under President Eisenhower, the U.S. government feared that national security would be compromised or adversely hit by regimes propped by the Soviet Union’s own involvement in regime change. A dominos effect was expected and promoted the domino theory, with successive presidents following this precedent which became a part of their foreign policy.

Because of this, it started expanding the geographic scope of its actions beyond the traditional close-by areas of influence like Central America and the Caribbean. The United States and the United Kingdom for instance – engineered the 1953 Iranian coup, and the 1961 Bay of Pigs Invasion targeting Cuba that failed.

According to one study, the U.S. alone performed at least 81 overt and covert known interventions in foreign elections during the period 1946–2000. Among this, the U.S. engaged in 66 covert and six overt attempts at regime change during the Cold War period.

Following the disintegration of the USSR, the United States supported wars to determine the governance of a number of countries. They pretended to fight the War on Terror, fighting for peace and restoration of democracies, or removing weapons of mass destruction (WMDs) which never ever existed, as in the Iraq War. They could rally the entire white man’s tribe behind them to restore rights to the people of nations who had nothing to do with them.

1979 was a point of no return in international terrorism. The Iranian Islamic revolution sparked fears of a wave of revolutionary Shia Islam. In addition, the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan and the subsequent anti-Soviet mujahedeen war, lasting from 1979 to 1989, stimulated the rise and expansion of terrorist groups.

The growth of well-trained, battle-hardened militants is the basic reason for the present-day international terrorism. Militants from the Islamic world fought in Afghanistan, supported by conservative countries such as Saudi Arabia.

The Riyadh-backed Islamic Front was established to provide financial, logistical, and training support for Yemeni volunteers. Similarly trained men created unrest in Kashmir, Chechnya and Bosnia.

Ukraine war is happening

The white man has no love lost for another white man. They are geographic entities wedded to land mass. Europe and America are different and Russians are whites too but are different whites! But the white man of America is like Captain America, it wants to control others not by fighting but by making others fight with each other.

So, it played its NATO trump card. When America during the time of JF Kennedy tried to overthrow Cuba’s government of Fidel Castro, Russians came to protect Cuba by deploying nuclear missiles in Cuba which was less than 100 kilometres from the US mainland. The US panicked and better sense prevailed amongst the Russians and Americans, and USSR agreed to take back its arsenal, avoiding a nuclear war.

The same thing is being done by America today. By expanding NATO to Ukraine, it is allowing itself to have boots on the ground just less than 100 Km from the Russian mainland- exactly what was done by USSR during the Cuban Crisis.

The EU is right under the American white man’s wings who is having God knows what stranglehold. India like several others is not to take sides and not against Russia in this ‘white man terror’. Therefore the Americano white man is unhappy with India.

But hello, once this Russo- Ukraine- EU war gets over, there could be thousands of armed well-trained mercenaries looking for ‘employability’, and will find the softest juiciest target- Europe. It may haunt- their own Frankenstein- creating havoc and will enter the continent never to leave. It will be an invasion like that of cockroaches. You can kill them but never eliminate them- they are ‘auto breeding’ types. You kill five in the bed room, you get ten in the toilette, you kill ten there you have 20 in your cupboard. The infestation goes on and on. Is the white man listening?

The biggest Bogey of the white man is the concoction of something like ‘Saffron terror’

In connivance (probable) with the left-leaning forces and the political opposition in India which is not comfortable with Modi led BJP government and the great progress India has made in the last 8 years under Modi government, the white man somehow or the other wants to dislodge the present government in India.

It is well-known fact that BJP has adopted Hindutva as its ideology and it is ‘cultural nationalism and Indian Nationhood’ not a religious or theocratic concept. This became a fulcrum of sorts for the negative forces to latch on to. So, they wanted to prop an idea of Hindutva as a fascist ideology and came up with terms like ‘Hindu terror and saffron terror’.

In any case, the white west is also not happy with the progress India is making economically, militarily and the idea of ‘decolonizing’ Indian minds which are being achieved at a pace they are not comfortable with. India refuses to toe the White Man’s line and the Minister of External Affairs Dr S Jaishankar has clearly said ‘They wanted our policies to be made according to their wishes. We have refused that and they will have to learn to live with this!’

What better than seeking support for an idea which can be propped against the Modi government to show it in a bad light in India and abroad? Therefore, they have connived with some Great white men, some disgruntled journalists and opposing forces within India to create a world wide web against a sovereign nation-state with a democratically elected government.

They are neither Islamic nor any other coloured terror, they are colourless white terror- A ‘holistic terror’ involving universities, students, paid professors, media even the church and so-called intellect through booker prizes and awards to do this. There is no saffron terror- it is a colourless terror.

Those who are past masters at changing regimes across the world are again trying the same trick- as white man’s sophisticated suited booted terror.

How can you come and lecture us on democracy or human rights when you have blood of so many races belonging to more than fifty nations, and men, women and children on your hands? How dare you?

‘COVID retreated because of Jesus, Christianity responsible for India’s development’: Telangana Health Director G Srinivas Rao

0

Telangana Health Director Srinivas on Wednesday attributed the reduction in coronavirus cases in the country to Jesus Christ. He also hailed Christianity for teaching mankind the art of survival.

The comments came at a time when China is in the midst of an unprecedented coronavirus wave, with hospitals overwhelmed with patients and medical staff stretched thin.

Srinivas said the reason COVID-19 subsided in India was because of the benevolence of Jesus Christ. He made the remarks while participating in the Semi-Christmas celebrations held in the Bhadradri Kothagudem district.

“Christianity is the reason for India’s development. It is because of the grace of Jesus Christ that Covid has decreased. Many people think that it has decreased because we are doing good, but that is not the reality. The cases have reduced because of Jesus Christ,” said Srinivas as per a report published on TV9 Telugu.

He reportedly added, “The existence of humankind is in danger. There are many gods but Jesus is the only one who walked on earth.” Srinivas said that the ancestors saw all this and they said it to future generations. He further exhorted people to carry the message of Jesus Christ and convey it to future generations, regardless of caste and religion.

Contrary to Telangana Health Director’s evangelical proclamations, India managed to blunt the deadly wave of coronavirus because of several factors, including its strategy to impose stringent lockdown that helped in reducing community infection, manufacturing of efficacious vaccines, and smooth implementation of the inoculation programme.

India began its vaccination programme on 16 January 2021 and as of 2 December 2022, India has jabbed ver 2.19 billion doses overall, including first, second and precautionary (booster) doses of the currently approved vaccines. In India, 95% of the eligible population has received at least one shot, and 88% of the eligible population is fully vaccinated.

Aussie sociologist Dr Salvatore Babones shames Newslaundry for editing his interview, video suddenly vanishes from YouTube

On December 21, within hours after uploading an unedited version of an interview with Australian sociologist Dr Salvatore Babones, the propaganda news portal Newslaundry sneakily made it private on its YouTube channel. The 1-hour 35-minute interview will be available only for the Newslaundry subscribers in an edited version.

Video made private by NewsLaundry. Source: YouTube

Notably, Dr Babones’s praises for India and Modi government on several platforms had raised the hackles of ‘liberals’. When Newslaundry uploaded the interview teaser, Dr Babones slammed them for sharing ‘aggressively edited clips’ and challenged them to upload the unedited version, which they did on YouTube. However, it was made private minutes after Babones posted the link on his Twitter page.

In the interview titled ‘Salvatore Babones on the failings of Indian intellectuals’, Dr Babones accused the co-founder of Newslaundry, Abhinandan Sekhri, of setting up traps and calling him names. Questioning Sekhri’s journalistic approach, Dr Babones called him an “unprofessional interviewer”.

Interestingly, when Dr Babones challenged Newslaundry to upload a full unedited interview, Sekhri said, “As I told you, all our interviews are uploaded unedited, professor. This one will be no different. These calls for “courage” are childish.” However, the video was gone from NL’s YouTube channel in less than an hour.

Dr Babones had shared its link on his Twitter account earlier today, but within an hour of his tweet, Newsalaundry turned the video private.

After the video was made private, Dr Babones said, “Hi All. With apologies, Abhinandan has now set my interview to “private”. But if any of you subscribe to Newslaundry, please DM me. You can send me the unlisted link, and I’ll publish it on Twitter every time they update it. Or any other Newslaundry video.”

A Twitter user asked if he had an unedited version of the video, to which Dr Babones said he would not upload it and added, “They [Newslaundry] are. Unedited and in full.”

Furthermore, Babones also shared that his subscription to Newslaundry has ended. “Aww … Newslaundry is sad to see me go! Anyone who is unfortunate enough to have an @Newslaundry subscription, please DM me with some unlisted YouTube video links. Oh, and @AbhinandanSekhr, please do publish the full, UNEDITED Zoom recording of my interview. Thanks and goodnight!” he tweeted.

Dr Salvatore Babones is an Australian socialist who recently created a buzz in India after his videos from India Today conclave went viral. Salvatore had cornered India’s ‘intellectual’ class and said that they were probably losing their place in society. He also lauded India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi and said, “The personality of Modi is an affront to India’s intellectual class. It has brought them to a new fever pitch of anger over the loss of their place in society”.

Dr Salvatore had said that India is being wrongly portrayed as a fascist state by the global media, which is affecting its image internationally. He also cornered the left-liberal ecosystem in India who usually keeps on targeting the BJP-led government and called them ‘anti-India.

“India has problems. And activists, journalists, and intellectuals absolutely have a role to call out the problems. But the problem is that they allow internationally to colour the overall evaluation of this system,” he said. He reiterated that India is not a fascist country and that it is being wrongly portrayed as a fascist state by the global media.
