The hindu vote is divided. Each election reiterates this fact. There must exist many social, political & cultural reasons for it & experts have expounded on it. The first General Elections was largely a unified vote for the INC, winning 364 of the 489 contested seats.+

The vote share was only 45 % for the INC, ppl had overwhelmingly voted for the Congress!
In 2019, Modi led NDA won by a majority vote share of 45% ! So much for the Congress & state dynast parties raking up vote share! #Politics +
A hindu united vote is a dream of the BJP, but are they taking steps to realise it? Caste politics aside. Instilling a sense of oneness through shared history & tradition wd be the natural steps to achieve such a goal. A longer process, which must start at the school level.+
Our rich ancient traditions, progress made in science, cultural traditions which aid in preserving nature must be a part of the syllabus.
Heroes of indic civilisation Hemu Vikramaditya, Shivaji Maharaj, king of Kottayam Pazhassi Raja, so many more great names.+
The revolutionary leaders who actually fought the war of independence be it Vasudev Balwant Phadke, Savarkar, Khudiram Bose, Rajguru, incidentally it is his jayanti today, Bhagat Singh, Batukeshwar Dutt, the names are unending, their heroics need to be taught in detail.+
Instead we are taught about mughals, their architecture, glorifying their victory & cinema which romanticises them. British looted India from its teak to its gems. We venerate them for building infra which only aided them to loot our nation.+
India has fought 4 wars since independence. Some of these battles were eponymous, battle of Asal Uttar, Longowal, the kargil war, our young generation will be proud of these heroes only if they are taught about it. Hindu pride is not only about religion it is civilisational.+
Education is the kindling of a flame, not the filling of a vessel says Socrates.
Let our schools bring about hindu resurgence through education.

The legacy site's CSS is what happens when hundreds of people directly write CSS over many years. Specificity wars, redundancy, a house of cards that can't be fixed. The result is extremely inefficient and error-prone styling that punishes users and developers.

The PWA's CSS is generated on-demand by a JS framework that manages styles and outputs "atomic CSS". The framework can enforce strict constraints and perform optimisations, which is why the CSS is so much smaller and safer. Style conflicts and unbounded CSS growth are avoided.
