How can India be called a Hindu majority nation? It’s not. Muslims praying in a masjid next to #Telangana state assembly without following any social distancing rules but permissions r denied to celebrate #GaneshChaturthi with the fear of people not following rules #Sickularism
Despite assurances given that they will follow rules. Why r rules so strict for Hindus alone? Why can’t rules be applied to all faiths equally? When will #SleepingHindus wake up to these atrocities by state govts and police. Don’t cry later. Wake up now and save #SanatanaDharma
In AP, during lockdown #Muslims were given special permission of 1 hr to go to masjid & offer their prayers. But for #GaneshaChaturthi2020 celebrations are totally banned outside. One govt is sold out to @asadowaisi and another converted govt imposes total ban. Plight of Hindus
Bhadrapada Shukla Chaturthi when we specially worship Lord Ganesha is here! How fast!! One year already flew by! This is an old piece I wrote. Thought of extending it into a short thread for this #GaneshChaturthi2020. ☺️🙏

How glorious it would have been in its prime! 🤩
Jai Shri Ganesha! 🙏☺️
