Why @BJP4Bengal Will Win #WestBengalElection2021
A Thread
This road is maintained by PWD, Government of West Bengal” is an omnipresent signboard that greets travellers in almost every nook and corner of the state.The region may change from Cooch Behar & Darjeeling in North Bengal

 To Jhargram in Junglemahal and Kultali in Sunderban, but the signboard remains the same. After having travelled for almost 13,000 km in the state from October 2020 to Decem maber ority of the places the roads, especially in the interiors, are in bad shape.
This state of affairs is unfortunately true for the incumbent party too. It’s everywhere in the state, but mostly in pretty bad shape. Barring rare exceptions, the people’s impression of the local Trinamool leadership
everywhere falls in the same template. corrupt, rowdy and arrogant. On top of that, the fear of retribution by the incumbents is so strong that the line between the people’s dislike and their hate against the ruling party often gets blurred.
Severl respondents across the state narrated the way dissidents, opponents and anyone daring to question the prevailing corruption and upmanship on the ground are hounded systematically, which includes measures like physical attacks, filing of false cases and depriving them of
Of the welfare schemes.This state of affairs is endorsed by the local leadership of the Left,Congress and the thinly present BJP.Besides the common people,it is the local CPM leadership & their supporters who have been at the receiving end of the incumbent’s ire in the lst 5 yrs
The Trinamool’s unprecedented harassment is revealed in the case of Biplab Pal, a businessman and hotelier at Bongaon in North 24 Parganas. Being a prominent businessman, he kept his political cards close to his chest.
But, on the eve of 2018 panchayat election, he supported a Bharatiya Janata Party candidate, earning the ire of local Trinamool leaders and the chairman of Bongaon municipality, Shankar Adhya. Consequently, a series of statues were built throughout the length of his hotel,
Consequently, a series of statues were built throughout the length of his hotel, blocking any access from the front of the road, allegedly in the name of beautifying the city.
His business came to a standstill. Desiring revenge he joined the BJP in 2018 and now holds the post of party’s district general secretary. “They have destroyed my business. Hence, for the last three years, I am invested completely in politics. I am working day and night to ensur
The day we win these statues will be placed in front of chairman’s property, which is on the other side of the road,” Pal added. This sentiment of fear, anger,hate and revenge against the incumbents signify the hubris that Trinamool got afflicted within their attempt to vanquish
the rival CPM.
The party succeeded in decimating its prime rival but in so doing, it created a conducive ambience for the emergence of its nemesis, the BJP. Pushed to the brink, the support base of the Left started shifting to the BJP en-masse as they realized that their own
party was incapable of protecting them.
Both the Left and the Congress lost ground as a credible alternative to the incumbent. It was at this juncture that the BJP emerged as the default beneficiary of the state of grand illusion and anger.
The fact that Prime Minister Narendra Modi and home minister Amit Shah exhibited a deep interest in winning and wresting Bengal from the Trinamool further added to the exodus of the people from the Left to the BJP since 2018.
This tectonic shift on the ground is an ongoing process and is strong enough to supersede the limiting factors like organizational weakness and lack of entrenched leadership in a majority of the assembly constituencies
that the BJP is strong. “We will vote for the symbol, not the candidate,” is the popular response of the pro-change respondents when asked as to how their sentiment would help the BJP win given the saffron party’s organizational weakness.
First, the people started shifting to the saffron party, now it is the turn of the leaders as they have sensed the popular mood. Besides, they need to win in the coming election,” opined a school teacher at Tamluk in east Medinipur.
The slogan “Prothame Ram, Pore Baam” (First BJP, then CPM) gained currency after a majority of anti-Trinamool people announced their tactical shift to the BJP. “
There will not be any Baam after Ram, if the shift to Ram happens, no one should be under any illusion that the BJP will be here for the long haul.
Tripura is an example in this regard,”said popular CPM leader Gauranga Goswami at Kalna in east Bardhman.
His words sound ominous not only for the Left but also for the incumbent Trinamool,specially when the popular antiincumbency rspns has mvd from the tactical Prothame Ram,Pore Baam to the decisive

In a BBC program, Indian author Arundhati Roy commented that "..the Muslim community in India has been ghettoized..."

Let's take a look at her claim if it's true or not.
Thread:


2/
All across Gujarat, in all major cities and in several towns, Muslims are deliberately forced into ghettos through a law called the Gujarat Disturbed Areas Act.

The law requires citizens in particular parts of cities to seek permission from the government before..


3/
..selling their property or changing their tenant and filters them by religion.
Gujarat's state govt extended the law across the state, to keep Muslims out of other neighborhoods than those traditionally Muslim. It criminalizes attempts to integrate, permanently..

4/
separating Muslims from Hindus. and it is being expanded through the addition of more geographical areas and placing more restrictions on Muslims and creating more hurdles to their leaving their ghettoes.

Every three years, on 30 June, the law has been renewed..

5/
..for another three years. The tenth time will come on 30 June 2021.
The act is currently in force in large parts of the state’s three largest cities, Ahmedabad, Vadodara, and Surat, and also in Bharuch, Kapadvanj, Anand and Godhra.

How Kejariwal and AAP involved with Pro Khalistan and how they do financial fraud!

Thread

In November 2015, AAP’s Sanjay Singh and Ashutosh went to Canada and USA along with few other leaders for donation drive.


About this trip Ashutosh said that "The Indians working in Canada not only hold economic power because of the money they send back, but can also influence voters. More importantly, they are also a major source of fund for the party"
They receive major funds from USA,Canada & UK


In 2015 Sanjay Sing visited Canada 2 times. But interestingly you won’t find any details about his second visit in public domain!
In that visit they met so many pro-Khalistani leaders and discussed they future plan
Pro-Khalistani Leaders have promised them huge financial support


Now let’s see how AAP is involved in Farmer protest on ground.
In December 2020 few NRI reached to Protest site by claiming that they are here to support farmers, but actually they are AAP’s Canada Unit!
They all were here during Punjab election, you can see it in below news.


During Election in Punjab Kejariwal stayed in the house of Khalistan Liberation Front (KLF) terrorist Gurwinder Singh.
Not only that, terrorists were openly campaigning for AAP in Punjab election.

A Bench headed by Justice Ashok Bhushan will shortly hear a plea by Former CJ of Andhra Pradesh HC Justice V. Eshwaraiah against an order passed by HC directing for an investigation into his private telephone conversation regarding charges of misconduct against sitting SC judge.


Advocate Prashant Bhushan appears.

#SupremeCourt @pbhushan1

Sr. Adv. Kapil Sibal states that he’s appearing for the Intervenors and has nothing to say at the moment.

Bhushan narrates the events to the Bench.

#SupremeCourt @pbhushan1 @KapilSibal

Bhishan: How can a private conversation be made a subject of inquiry ? What is the crime in having a private conversation, even if it’s about the conduct of a SC judge ? Without even saying into me, the HC orders an inquiry ? How can that be done ?

#SupremeCourt @pbhushan1

Bhushan: Your Lordship will need to issue notice and stay the inquiry as the inquiry is completely out of order.

Milk and biscuit distribution by a gurudwara committee in Lucknow.

Value of material distributed may be far smaller than its show off, advertising and PR.

Thoughts. 1/n


According to a किंवदन्ती, once a follower of Tulasīdāsa needed a loan for a family wedding.

Rahīm was then living in Kashi, and known to be a rich and generous man. No needy would return emptyhanded from him.

Requested by the man, Tulasīdāsa sent him to

2/n

Rahīm with a letter.

Rahīm not only helped the man but also sent a humble letter to Tulasīdāsa thanking him for the opportunity to be of service.

Tulasīdāsa wrote him back:

सीखे कहाँ रहीम जी
देनी ऐसी देन
ज्यों ज्यों कर ऊपर उठत
त्यों त्यों नीचे नैन?

3/n

(From where did our Rahīm ji learn such way of giving? As his arms rise in charity, his gaze turns lower in humility?)

To which Rahīm wrote back to Tulasīdāsa:

देनहार कोइ और है
देत रहत दिन रैन
लोग भरम हम पर धरत
ता सों नीचे नैन!

4/n

(The provider is someone else, who keeps providing for all beings, day and night! But when people call me the provider and donor etc, my eyes are naturally set down in shame and embarrassment)

This is the only way of real service. With humility, away from PR.

Spent a quaint half hour in a cafe listening to a guy yell at his dad after his dad said that the women Trump molested wanted it: "Dad, that's like saying the Jews who died in the Holocaust were asking for it!" ENJOY YOUR TERRIBLE FAMILIES THIS WEEK!

"Mom, has a man ever touched you without your consent?"
"Of course."
"Did you report it?"
"No."
"Dad, your WIFE has been through this!"

Dad was unmoved and told the guy to stop arguing with him.

At this point we learned the boy child has allergies.

I forgot to remark upon the presence of the very cute grandson, who was very small and gave not one shit about the yelling. I believe a sister or aunt was present and feeling very stressed. I wanted to hand her a Xanax or seven.

It was really hard to not jump in and say, "Sounds like you guys are going to have a fun meal tomorrow!" so they could unite in hatred against me, the outsider, and stop squabbling. Instead I exchanged glances with a nearby fellow lady patron, who also emotionally ate a cookie.

Anyway, I want to thank the random family for yelling about rape and the Holocaust in an Israeli cafe in the US of A today because it reminded me that while this country isn't the greatest, it is inevitably my stupid favorite and I am never, ever bored.

SRISAILAM: KASHI OF THE SOUTH (AP)
#andhratemples

The divine abode of Mallikarjuna Swamy (Jyotirlinga) and Devi Brahmaramba (Shaktipeeth).

When Ganesha was married before Kartikeya, he left in anger to Kraunch mountain. Shiva and Parvati also followed him there.


Shiva assumed the form of Jyotirlinga and resided on the mountain by the name of Mallikarjuna. Mallika means Parvati while Arjuna is another name of Shiva
It is also said that once, a princess Chandravathi, saw a cow shedding milk on a rock resembling a shivlingam.
@DubeyYash1911


She started praying to the lingam daily and used to offer jasmine (mallika pushpam) daily. Pleased Shiva appeared before her and agreed to wear jasmine garland (mallika pushpmala) on his head permanently. Since then, Shiva became known as Mallikarjun Swamy.


At this place, Shakti took the form of Bhramaram (bee) to kill Arunasur and settled as Bhramaramba Devi. The place is a Shakti Peeth as the neck portion of Devi Sati fell here.

It is said that by merely seeing the hill, one is emancipated from all his sins and worries.

1. I was walking in the woods yesterday and I had an epiphany. It wasn’t one I wanted to have. I was thinking about today’s class, where we are reading Kimmerer’s ‘Gathering Moss’. I’ve taught Braiding Sweetgrass in multiple classes every year since 2016. It’s eminently teachable

2. Both books are beautifully written. Students uniformly enjoy them as assigned reading. They do a great job communicating to non-Indigenous folks the contours of basic Indigenous relationships to more-than-human beings. They’re wildly popular with white readers.

3. I’ve found Braiding Sweetgrass to be a great entry point for non-Indigenous folks to Indigenous scholarship. But this is where yesterday’s epiphany comes in. Neither Braiding Sweetgrass or Gathering Moss tends to the deep deep lineages of Indigenous scholarship in Canada or US

4. As the popularity of ‘Braiding Sweetgrass’ has soared, I’ve seen more and more white folks wax on about ‘braiding knowledge’. But they often don’t know any of the lineages of these concepts beyond what is presented in this one book. They confidently run with this.

5. Kimmerer does a commendable job of weaving in her own experiences, her family stories+nods to some very important knowledge keepers who deserve to be celebrated for their work. But Braiding Sweetgrass does not tend to the citational politics Sara Ahmed & others teach us about
