From victim blaming to whitewashing Islamic terrorism, Congress doubles up as terrorist sympathisers as The Kashmir Files movie bares open atrocities on Kashmiri Hindus

Perturbed by the success of Kashmir Files and people’s reaction to the genocide of Kashmiri Hindu community in 1990, Congress party has officially stepped in to defend the Islamists who carried it out. In a long deranged rant, official Congress Kerala handle blamed everyone from Governor Jagmohan to BJP for the genocide.

In a Twitter thread from their official Congress Kerala handle, the Congress party started off their rant by downplaying the whole Kashmiri Hindu genocide itself. Saying 399 Kashmiri Hindus were killed by terrorists, and comparing it to the 15,000 deaths of Muslims in the valley over the last 3 decades as a result of terrorism.

Kerala Congress’ now deleted tweet

To put things in perspective, lakhs of Kashmiri Hindus were forced to leave their valley, almost overnight, leaving all their belongings behind. There were announcements made from mosques asking Kashmiri Hindu men to leave the valley, leaving their women behind. The chants of ‘convert (to Islam), leave or die’ echoed in the valley. That the Kashmiri Hindus did not leave their homes out of free will but were forced to is completely ignored by Congress.

Then Congress went on to blame Governor Jagmohan, the man who actually saved Kashmiri Hindus from a fate much worse than the exodus. “Jagmohan theory” is a long peddled lie by Congress and its cabal to give a clean chit to the Islamists for their actions in 1990.

Congress blaming Governor Jagnmohan for the exodus

Governor Jagmohan, who was appointed as the governor of Jammu & Kashmir on 19th January 1990, and reached Srinagar only on 21st January 1990, has been repeatedly blamed by Congress for the Kashmiri Hindu exodus.

The thread further tried to imply that the Kashmiri Hindus were not targeted and they were victims of terrorism just like everyone else. Apparently slogans like ‘Raliv Galiv ya Chaliv‘ (Convert, die or leave) that Kashmiri Hindus heard all around them were a figment of their imagination. Another slogan the mobs chanted ‘aasie gacchie panunuy Pakistan, batav rostuy batenien saan’ (We want our Pakistan. Without Kashmiri Pandit men but with Kashmiri Pandit women) was not targeting them either apparently as per Congress.

Of course, much of the Congress ire was directed at the ruling party BJP. With multiple BJP governments supporting the Kashmir Files movie by making it tax-free, Congress tried to show that BJP is the actual villain of the events shown in the film. From linking Ayodhya movement to the Kashmiri Hindu exodus to BJP’s support to the then VP Singh government to declaring Governor Jagmohan an RSS man, Congress blamed BJP for the entire exodus.

And if that was not enough, somehow Congress managed to make Jammu residents villains by claiming how Kashmiri Muslims were killed in Jammu during partition. This insinuates justification of the Kashmiri Pandit exodus and genocide by hands of Islamic terrorists ‘because Muslims were also killed’ theory.

Congress’ tweet on Ram Janmabhoomi

Apparently, the Kashmiri Hindu exodus and genocide on hands of Islamic terrorists is ‘issue’ which BJP used for ‘propaganda’. The horrors endured by Kashmiri Hindus was reduced to ‘fake outrage’.

Congress cleverly tries to insinuate that the violence in 1990 happened overnight or was the only time Kashmiri Hindus left the valley. The community was targeted continuously since the partition. There was violence in the 70s, 80s when some Kashmiri Hindus left the valley. Those who stayed back till 1990s thought they were in safe hands amongst their neighbours. Except, in the 1990s even many of the neighbours turned on them. This is not a figment of imagination but lived trauma of thousands of Kashmiri Hindus.

The only people Congress didn’t blame during the course of the thread was the militant cadres of Pakistani based terror groups, JKLF, Hizbul and members of local militia who carried out the genocide. Everyone else was culpable except the men actually carrying out the murders and the rapes.

Congress’ top leadership and Kerala unit

Senior Congress leader Shashi Tharoor is currently the Chairman of Kerala Congress Digital media cell.

Senior Congress leader is the Chairman of Kerala state unit’s digital media cell. It is very likely that he was in the know of things being posted by the social media account. It is also likely the Kerala Congress social media account posted on behest of Tharoor.

Another thing is that former Congress President and son of current Congress President Rahul Gandhi represents Wayanad constituency in Lok Sabha. Wayanad is one of the important constituencies in Kerala.

Congress Working Committee reaffirms faith on Sonia Gandhi’s leadership after poll debacle, rejects Gandhi family’s offer to resign

The much-talked-about Congress Working Committee meeting has come to an end after 4.5 hours only to conclude that Sonia Gandhi will continue as the interim party president. In the meeting, CWC expressed its full faith on Sonia Gandhi to keep leading the party, and authorised her to take decisions needed to revamp the party.

Reportedly, it was also decided that the much waited and much delayed election to elect a full-time president of the Congress party will take place on August 20. During the meeting, Sonia Gandhi said that if the party feels is it is needed, the three from the Gandhi family, Sonia Gandhi herself, and her children Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, are ready to resign from their posts in the party. However, the CWC members unanimously rejected the offer.

The party will also organise a brainstorming camp to find ways to revamp the party. Addressing a press conference after the meeting held on 13th March 2022 at AICC headquarters in Delhi, Randeep Singh Surjewala and KC Venugopal informed about the decisions taken in the meeting.

In the most important and the most expected of the decisions, the CWC has reaffirmed its faith in Sonia Gandhi’s leadership. Informing about the decisions taken in the CWC meeting, KC Venugopal read out the statement published by the Congress party that said, “Senior members openly participated in the discussions to analyse themselves. It was a sincere and fruitful discussion. The CWC unanimously accepted the following things. The recent assembly elections in five states are a cause of serious concern for Congress. The CWC unanimously reaffirms its faith in Sonia Gandhi.”

It further said, “We request the Congress president to lead from the front, address the organizational weakness, effect the necessary organizational and comprehensive changes in order to take on political challenges.”

Analysing the party’s dismal performance in the five state elections, the party concluded due to faulty strategies, it failed to ‘effectively expose the misrule of BJP govts in four states’, and could not overcome anti-incumbency in Punjab as the party had short time after effecting change of leadership in the state.

The statement also informed about the next steps to be taken by the Congress party. It said, “The CWC also decided that to have a detailed revelation of the party strategy and way forward in the upcoming elections in 2022, 2023, and 2024, a Chintan Shivir of the senior leaders will be held immediately after the current parliament session.”

It is also indicated that the party is going to make some decisions about the organizational changes soon. The party statement said, “Before Chintan Shivir, the CWC will meet once again to discuss the matters to be taken in the meeting including the organizational changes and the strategies. The Congress president will immediately take the immediate corrective measures to revamp and strengthen the organization.” Reportedly, the Chintan Shivir (brainstorming session) will take place after the budget session.

Randeep Singh Surjewala said that every party worker wants Rahul Gandhi to lead the party. However, he also cleared that the new party president will be chosen at the next organizational elections of Congress.

The much-talked-about meeting of the Congress working committee began at around 4 PM on 13th March 2022 in New Delhi. While 5 senior members of the party and the former prime minister Manmohan Singh were absent in this CWC meeting, party workers were seen protesting against the G-23 leaders and in support of Gandhi family members outside the AICC headquarters when the meeting was going on.

Congress CWC meeting: 5 senior members and Manmohan Singh absent; party workers protest against G-23 leaders outside AICC headquarters

The much-talked-about meeting of the Congress working committee began at around 4 PM on 13th March 2022 in New Delhi. While 5 senior members of the party and the former prime minister Manmohan Singh were absent in this CWC meeting, party workers were seen protesting against the G-23 leaders and in support of Gandhi family members outside the AICC headquarters when the meeting was going on.

The CWC meeting had been called by the party’s interim president Sonia Gandhi to discuss the causes and effects of the recent decimation of the party in the assembly elections of five states. Congress not only failed to retain the state of Punjab but also saw a sharp decline in its number of seats in the other states.

Former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and 5 other senior members of the party were absent in this meeting. According to a report by the Republic World, ex-defence minister AK Antony, MP A Chella Kumar, former Manipur Deputy Chief Minister Gaikhangam, Tariq Hameed Karra, and G Sanjeeva Reddy did not attend this meeting. while Antony has missed the meeting after testing positive for COVID-19, the reasons behind other leaders missing the CWC meeting have not yet been specified.

A day before this meeting, NDTV had reported that all the members of the Gandhi family that is Sonia Gandhi, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, and Rahul Gandhi will resign from their posts in this CWC meeting. However, the party had denied this. Congress leader Randeep Singh Surjewala had slammed NDTV for spreading fake news. Amidst these speculations, party workers protested against the G-23 leaders and in support of Gandhi family members outside the AICC headquarters on 13th March 2022 before the CWC meeting started.

Earlier today, the Rajasthan chief minister Ashok Gehlot had said that Rahul Gandhi must head the party. He said, “Rahul Gandhi must become head of the Congress party. No one from the Gandhi family has become PM for close to 30 years now. The Gandhi family is important to strengthen Congress.”

Decimation of Congress in recent assembly elections

The Congress party’s performance in the recent assembly elections has been disastrous. In Uttar Pradesh, it has managed to win just 2 seats. Having taken charge of a drowning Congress in Uttar Pradesh, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra has firmly sunk the party. Congress’ family bastions Amethi and Rae Bareli, where the party had some hope of attracting votes in the name of the Nehru-Gandhi dynasty, have also completely slipped out of the Gandhi family’s hands under her leadership. The party drew a big fat zero in both Amethi and Rae Bareli in the 2022 UP Assembly elections.

Likewise in other states, Congress has lost Punjab where it was in power for the last term. In the 117-seat assembly, Congress has got just 18. Congress has also lost in Manipur, a 60-seat assembly, where it has been reduced from 23 to 5. In Goa, Congress has secured 12 seats out of 40, while in Uttarakhand, it got 19 out of 70 seats.

Congress mouthpiece National Herald hails Priyanka Gandhi for reducing Congress to 2.33 percent vote share in Uttar Pradesh

Alleged newspaper and Congress mouthpiece, National Herald, has declared Priyanka Gandhi as the big winner of the recently concluded Uttar Pradesh elections. In an article praising Priyanka Gandhi Vadra to the skies, National Herald claimed that Priyanka really charmed Uttar Pradesh during her campaign. She charmed them so much that nobody actually turned up to vote for Congress.

For those living under a rock, Congress secured 2 seats and 2.33% vote share in Uttar Pradesh in 2022. Nobody believed that Congress can sink any further in the state after their 2017 showing when they won 7 seats and 6.25% votes, but Priyanka showed that she can achieve the impossible.

While the rest of the country can see what a disaster Priyanka has been as UP in-charge for Congress, losing even family bastions of Amethi and Rae Bareli comprehensively, National Herald begs to differ. As per them, Priyanka outshone everybody on the campaign trail, including the Prime Minister Narendra Modi, and the man UP voted for, Yogi Adityanath.

It should be noted that Congress was around 12% votes in UP in 2012 elections, while BJP was at 15%. In the 10 years that followed, BJP has moved from 15% to 45% while Congress, led by the brother-sister Gandhi duo, has slipped from 12% to 2%. While this would be a cause of serious concern for normal Congress supporters, National Herald is portraying this as a big win.

The comical piece goes on to add how Priyanka Gandhi Vadra taught a lesson in humility to Narendra Modi and forced him to change his campaign. It even goes on to say that Modi had met his match in Priyanka, because Congress won 2 seats in a state election where BJP won 255.

We have become used to annual Rahul Gandhi has arrived covers from magazines like India Today after every Congress loss overseen by him. Now it looks like we have to get used to Priyanka has arrived articles from National Herald after every loss under her leadership.

If Congress was a corporate body, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra would have been fired from the job immediately after the results. However, since it is a family owned business, Priyanka is likely to get a bigger role on National level for sinking her party in UP.

Netizens raise alarm after Twitter user claims Uber in Jammu shows Pakistani currency

On Sunday (March 13), ride hailing service Uber courted controversy after a Twitter user accused the app of displaying currency in Pakistani rupees (PKR) within the Indian territory of Jammu and Kashmir.

The user, identified as one Koushal Raina (@ALkohliC), wrote, “PKR currency in wallet balance in Jammu, J&K, India???” He had also shared a screenshot wherein ‘Uber Cash’ was displayed in Pakistani rupees under the section of ‘personal’ payment options.

In another tweet, the user pointed out that the ride-sharing app does not operate in Jammu and Kashmir, and the amount was shown for a ride in Delhi. “I was booking cab for someone in Delhi when I saw this,” Koushal Raina added.

Netizens raise alarm over display of PKR in Indian territory by Uber

Social media users were miffed at the representation of currency in Pakistani rupees by Uber within the Union territory of Jammu and Kashmir. A Twitter user cautioned the ride-sharing app to make amends or be ready to face financial loss in business operations in the rest of the country.

Screengrab of the tweet

“Shame on you, Uber. J&K is an integral part of India. Why are you doing this kind of activity? #BoycottUber. Let’s make this issue viral,” wrote another user.

Another user warned, “Will start to boycott Uber if they don’t give a written explanation.”

One Twitter user alleged that it was the work of the ‘usual suspects’. “Uber Support, what the hell is going on? Vivek Agnihotri, ecosystem at play again,” he wrote.

One Rijul sarcastically remarked whether Koushal Raina might have downloaded the Pakistani version of the ‘Uber’ app.

A user named Prakshit claimed that it might be a technical glitch. “Probably some GeoIP issue I think. If you set a higher range on Tinder in Jammu, it also shows you profiles from Pakistan,” he tweeted.

Twitter user provides clarification, Uber responds with a computer-generated message

OpIndia tried to test whether the ride-sharing app displayed ‘Uber cash’ in PKR while booking a cab to/from Jammu. We found that the currency for ‘Uber cash’ was in Indian rupees (INR).

Meanwhile, Twitter user Koushal Raina has responded to the controversy. He said, “Some people are seeing INR, some PKR. Probably geolocation issue. Still needs to be fixed though.”

The ride-sharing app has not commented on the matter. It has so far responded with a generic, automated message. “Hey Koushal, we would like to look into this for you. Could you please share your registered contact details via Direct Message?” the tweet read.

As of now, it remains unclear whether it was a technical glitch or a deliberate act on the part of Uber.

Days after AAP wins in Punjab, around 100 party workers in Gujarat leave the party alleging high-handedness of leadership

Days after AAP wins in Punjab, around 100 party workers in Gujarat leave the party alleging high-handedness of leadership

Days after the Aam Aadmi Party won in the Punjab assembly elections, hundreds of the party members in Gujarat are leaving the party. A group of about 150 party members from the Anand district in Gujarat has resigned from the primary membership of the party on Saturday 12th March 2022.

These members have alleged the state-level party leadership of high-handedness. According to a report by the Times of India, they have also threatened that they will now appeal to all the AAP members in the state to leave the party. Interestingly, the resignation letters of all these members are addressed to the AAP president Arvind Kejriwal.

Ravi Patel, the state-level head of the farmers’ wing of the party in Gujarat, has said, “Six months ago, when we resigned from our posts en masse, we had urged the party leadership to intervene. However, since the party leadership has not taken any steps in that direction, we are submitting our resignations from the primary membership of the party.”

Ravi Patel further said that the Gujarat state leadership of the Aam Aadmi Party had dissolved the farmers’ wing without taking the local unit into confidence. Patel also alleged that the party leadership has misbehaved with Dipavali Upadhyaya, the head of the Anand district unit of the party.

Talking about his next plans, Ravi Patel said, “We will run a campaign for another 12 months urging all those who have joined AAP to resign from the party’s primary membership as the state unit is not taking local units into confidence. We will be exposing all the misdeeds of those leaders who are at the helm of the state unit.”

It is notable that after Delhi, Punjab has become the second state where AAP is going to make its government. AAP is eyeing Gujarat and Himachal Pradesh in order to become a pan-India substitute to the Congress party. Gujarat and Himachal Pradesh assemblies complete their five-year tenure in December 2022. Efforts were also made in Goa where the self-proclaimed clean party with a self-proclaimed cute leader has managed to win 2 seats. But, AAP is not even able to retain its existing members who are leaving the party in large numbers at a time. Earlier, many corporators of AAP in the Surat Municipal Corporation have left the party and joined the BJP.

American journalist Brent Renaud shot dead in Ukraine, here is what we know

Brent Renaud, an American video journalist covering the Ukraine war, has been confirmed dead by the head of Kyiv police department. As per the police, Russian troops opened fire on a car with foreign journalists inside, and shot dead 51 yrs old Renaud in Irpin, around 40 KMs North-West of capital Kyiv.

Head of Kyiv Police department, Andriy Nebytov said ,”A 51-year-old world-renowned media correspondent was shot in Irpen today,”

“Another journalist is injured. Now they are trying to remove the victim from the war zone. Of course, the profession of a journalist is a risk, but US citizen Brent Renaud paid his life for trying to highlight the aggressor’s ingenuity, cruelty and ruthlessness”, he added.

In the immediate aftermath of his death, there were reports that he was covering the war for New York Times. However, they have issued a statement denying it. Even though he had previously contributed to The New York Times, he was not covering Ukraine war for them. The confusion occurred because he was carrying his old New York Times card.

Brent Renaud was a Peabody and DuPont Award winning filmmaker, and used to produce films and television programs with his brother Craig Renaud from various regions around the world. He had reported from various conflict regions, including Iraq, Afghanistan, Haiti, Mexico and Egypt.

Reporting from conflict zones has always been a risky assignment for the journalists. Indian photojournalist Danish Siddiqui, who was working for Reuters at the time, was shot dead by Taliban last year while reporting on the conflict in Afghanistan.

Madhya Pradesh govt declares ‘The Kashmir Files’ tax-free, BJP leaders book theatres for free shows of the movie

Madhya Pradesh has joined Haryana and Gujarat as the third state to declare the movie The Kashmir Files as tax-free. Third da into its release, the movie has become a blockbuster hit, and theatres across the country as reporting that their shows are fully booked.

The tax-free status will reduce the price of tickets for the movie, as the states are waiving the entertainment GST applicable for it. The current GST rate on entertainment is 18%, and when the state GST is subtracted from ticket prices, they would drop by 9%.

Alongside this, several Bharatiya Janata Party leaders have joined to booked theatres for people to come and watch the movie. The movie has received an overwhelming response from the public. Despite only having a limited release in India, Vivek Agnihotri’s The Kashmir Files has become a smashing success.

Umesh Sharma, a BJP Spokesperson in Indore, reserved one full theatre to show The Kashmir Files to the public. People holding saffron flags and shouting patriotic slogans gathered to see the film. A Twitter user shared a video writing, “Video is supposed to be from Indore, MP. people are going to watch The Kashmir Files with chanting Jai Shree Ram.”

A significant number of people came and joined in Indore on Friday to see the film The Kashmir Files, which was released on 11 March. Umesh Sharma had booked the entire theatre for them. A big crowd gathered at the Regal Tiraha with saffron flags in their hands, then marched towards the Inox Theatre in the Central Mall, chanting nationalistic slogans.

The Congress Party has protested to the BJP holding such an event to screen the film. Rakesh Singh Yadav, state secretary of the Congress, stated that the BJP is overjoyed with its victories in four states. Through the film, they hope to foster religious fervour, he alleged.

Another user on Twitter mentioned that a BJP MLA from Vijaypur, Bsavangowda Patil has announced free shows of the film for 10 days in his constituency. He wrote on Twitter, “BJP MLA from Vijaypur Bsavangowda Patil announces 10 days free show of The Kashmir Files in his constituency. We need more such Leaders”

The Kashmir Files is a movie directed by Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri. It is based on the genocide of Kashmiri Hindus and documents some real stories when in 1990, turmoil in Kashmir erupted as a result of rising Islamic Jihad, forcing the great majority of Hindus to flee the valley. Performers such as Anupam Kher, Mithun Chakraborty, and Pallavi Joshi play pivotal roles.

People from all across the world have shown their support for the film. People from many walks of life have come out to offer their support for the film and have pushed others to see it so that they, too, may learn the heretofore unrecognized truth.

Vivek Agnihotri, director of The Kashmir Files, recently spoke with OpIndia CEO Rahul Raushan about the film’s production, the challenges his team faced, and how he assured the film’s theatrical run. In addition to states making the movie tax-free and political leaders joining in, numerous social media users have offered to fund movie tickets so that more people can see the film.

Bengali actress Rupa Dutta arrested for pickpocketing, had earlier mocked Mamata Banerjee after TMC didn’t win single seat in Goa

On Saturday (March 12), popular Bengali actress Rupa Dutta was arrested for pickpocketing during the 45th International Kolkata Book Fair. She has starred in the Hindi movie ‘Saathi‘ and worked in the Bengali film industry.

As per a report in Asianet News Bangla, she was apprehended while trying to evade after dumping a money bag in a dustbin. Her act raised suspicions in the minds of the police officials deployed at the Book Fair.

On being asked about the bag, the actress failed to provide a convincing reply. The cops then escorted her to the Bidhannagar North police station.

During interrogation, the actress broke down into tears. A probe has been initiated into the matter.

On Sunday (March 13), Zee24 Ghanta journalist Piyali Mitra informed that multiple purses and an amount of ₹65,760 were seized by the police.

“According to police sources, she failed to produce any reason for having many purses with her. She will be produced before the BDN court today,” tweeted Mitra.

Dutta had on Friday mocked Mamata Banerjee after TMC could not win a single seat in the recently concluded Goa elections.

Reportedly, she had earlier accused director Anurag Kashyap of sexual harassment.

“There is no respect for any woman in the eyes of Anurag Kashyap. Which I came to know after knowing him. That’s why Payel Ghosh’s allegation is absolutely correct. Anurag Kashyap should get the harshest punishment. And he also takes drugs. Also supplies artist NCB please investigate,” she had tweeted. However, the allegations against Kashyap were incorrect as she mistook some other Anurag for the filmmaker.
