Since tweets by @rihanna and @miakhalifa are now considered 'external forces' and 'foreign interference', a small reminder... During the first Emergency, the Sangh's main line of dissent was through foreign press, governments, activists, and funding.

Republic Day: The Lawyers who helped draft the Constitution of India


Our Constitution was handwritten by Shri. Prem Behari Raizada who took 6 months and used 254 various nibs to write the Constitution. (Image Source - Prem Foundation)

Our original constitution copy was then sent to Survey of India office where these handwritten copies were copied and distributed to its members. Even now, very few copies are freely available in the market.

Constitution of India is not only a beautiful document but a beautifully presented document too. Illustrations include Mohenjodaro period to Vedic and Epic periods to that of Maurya and Gupta Empire.

Leaders must inspire. It is essential that a leader performs exceptionally well at a personal level. But that alone is inadequate. He should create synergy and lift his team to a higher plane. 1/n

Take Modi. He ticks all the boxes. Not easy to take a Country of 1.38 Billion people with you

On the Cricket Field Virat Kohli performs exceptionally well at a personal level. But does he inspire his team to perform at a higher level? I have serious doubts. 2/n

Rahul Gandhi neither performs at any level not does he create synergy and lift Congressmen. They are resigned to their fate all the time.

I had an exceptional Regional Manager who was brilliant in his work, and guided and motivated us. One would die for him. 3/n

I was once taking classes in 8th floor when I overheard a conversation between two of my students. One was chiding the other for showing undue respect to me. 4/n

Second student told him that "If Sir asked me to jump from this floor, I shall do so unhesitatingly, knowing that he would not ask me if he had not taken enough precautions in the first place".

It was one of the greatest moment of my life as a Teacher 5/n

I visited Hampi ❤ a couple of weeks ago.
The place is magical and has many important monuments regarding Hinduism and especially Ramayana.
Below are some important temples and places in the divine land.
#Hampi #Karnataka

Hampi is a land of huge rocks
Loads of huge rocks are placed naturally that seems like humans placed them but they are not.
They form the natural boundary of Hampi the capital of the great Vijayanagara empire.

The first major temple ruins In Hampi
Carvings and sculptures are the most beautiful thing in Hampi.
Carvings of various gods mostly Vishnu avatars and lord Hanuman are the most common in temples
Temples are build on huge and big number of pillars
Barely any temple is functioning

I haven't tweeted much about Uttar Pradesh Politics.

Some were asking me whether @yadavakhilesh will have revival like Tejaswi Yadav of Bihar in Uttar Pradesh elections.

Simple 1 Point Reply - This is @myogiadityanath governing Uttar Pradesh not @NitishKumar of Bihar.

is brand of his own and he has his own image and stardom.

This is not media creation or creation because of weak Oppn in state.

@myogiadityanath Brand UP is creation of his own hardwork in ground through effective governance and he is self made politician.

In Today Position as per reliable ground reports in Uttar Pradesh.

BJP is sitting pretty with 42% without any allaince partner, without any campaigning Just in Brand Value of @myogiadityanath it is in position to easily reach 300 seats.

Today just these three things matter for Jats and other Hindus in Western Uttar Pradesh

1.Sugarcane,
2.Muslims Menace
3.Better infra

Supporting Tikait on Moral and Biradri basis is different and voting is totally different things.

Nearly 50 Lakh Jat voters live in Uttar Pradesh, BJP as Political Outfit has teach among every Jat household either son or daughter or wife or old man of house supports BJP.

This Rld Exists in few assembly segments in Bhagpat, Kairana, Amroha, Bijnor, Mathura and Muzzafarnagar.

A car with a 12 month waiting period in the 80s ruled the Indian roads for over 3 decades

A thread on Ambassador cars 🧵

1/

1956, UK - Morris Motors manufactured and sold 3 variants of Morris Oxford car

It sold the rights and tooling for these cars to Hindustan Motors, a subsidiary of CK Birla group to manufacture and sell these cars in India

2/

1956 - Morris Oxford Series 1 model was branded as Hindustan 10, Series 2 as Landmaster and Series 3 model as the Ambassador

3/

Out of the 3 cars, Ambassador was the best both in terms of looks, space and ruggedness required for Indian roads. It cost around 14000 Rs in 1958 when the production started

It was positioned as the family car given the kind of space available for bigger Indian families

4/

At that time, there were not many indian automobile brands. Standard 10 and Mahindra's Jeep were the only major car brands available.

The government controlled production and was encouraging domestic production. This helped all these 3 players
