In Nov 2021, @nikita_jain15 reported from #Uttarakhand how civil rights campaigners recorded 305 attacks against Christians in 21 states between Jan-Sept 2021, almost every attack followed by a police case against a pastor alleging religious conversion.

In Dec 2021, @mohitmrao travelled to 4 #Karnataka districts & found many attacks unreported, pastors & congregations fearful, with police reluctant to act against attackers, most allied with the ruling #BJP or its sister outfits

I wanted to share my experience with you all about my recent trip to Uttarakhand. It is rightly called as Devabhoomi, such a wonderful place to be in if you are looking for a break from your regular activities. The roads throughout the state are absolutely fantastic (1/n)
Riding a bike or self-driving a car would be even more enjoyable with some nice curves. After getting down at Dehradun, we were going to a scenic place called "Kanatal". This is the place where the chance of snow is very high, it is approx 85 km from Dehradun. (2/n)
By the time, we reached the homestay at Kanatal, the temperature was single digit. The caretaker helped us with Bon Fire to settle initially and served us a hot hot dinner. Dinner menu - Chap, dhal, rice, mattar paneer, curd and pickle. (3/n)
JOSHIMATH SINKING THREAD:
All the coverage on Joshimath will show you visuals of haphazard construction n tilted homes with cracks, n also build a narrative that it is the main reason for the disaster. That’s half the truth and a coverup exercise, to protect the main CULPRIT. ++

No doubt there is unplanned and haphazard construction in the region, and it does impose a ‘heavy’ load on the area, beyond the carrying capacity of the terrain. Ideally, any development and urbanization strategy should consider acceptable levels of risk. #joshimath ++
Main CULPRIT is the devt model pursued in Uttarakhand, in fact in entire Himalayan region, starting from Dharamshala to Arunachal, the large-scale infrastructure projects posing threat to fragile Himalayan ecosystem. #JoshimathIsSinking ++
Don't wait for other hill towns to undergo the same challenges Joshimath is experiencing right now. Joshimath serves as an example, and we must take note of its lessons. Alternative energy sources can be found , but it is impossible to model a place with with enormous historical
values , a place where we were born and raised can't be remodeled once gone @pushkardhami @Anoopnautiyal1 @PMOIndia @narendramodi #Joshimath #JoshimathIsSinking #Joshimathcrisis
1/5.. #WednesdayWankers Of the 1000 things promised in their manifesto.. the 1st thing that @BJP4India implements in #Uttarakhand is free coaching schemes for Muslims which wasnt in their manifesto. This is how Hindu-Drohi BJP screws & betrays Hindus. @pushkardhami @NarendraModi
2/5.. #HowBJPfoolsHindus In their entire manifesto for Uttarakhand.. the words "Minority" or "Muslim" cannot be found anywhere.. Yet.. the first action of @PushkarDhami is crawl for Muslims with free coaching.. Read their manifesto> parliamentlibraryindia.nic.in/writereaddata/…
@pushkardhami 3/5.. #HowBJPfoolsHindus In their entire manifesto for Uttarakhand 2022.. even the word "coaching" appears ONLY TWICE & that for kids of martyrs from military & police.. and thats NOT FREE.. But the first implementation is FREE COACHING for Muslims.. @pushkardhami @NarendraModi
I finally went on my first-ever solo trip. How did this girl who has been timid most of her life, do this? Well if I have to sum it up in one word - regret - I didn't want to die with a regret. A regret doing nothing to make my dream come true.

The shape of shivling is different.
It opens only for 6 months and remain closed rest of the time because of the extreme weather conditions.
