Contact between🇵🇰& invading Gibraltars snapped!
At the time of partition in 1947,
6 Armoured regiments were given to Pakistan & 12 to India.
In 1965, both had 17!
May 1964, Indian Defence Minister Yashwantrao Chavan's request to Americans to sell India the F-104 Straighter was rebuffed. #IndoPak1965#NeverForgetNeverForgive
US.DefSec Robert McNamara told Chavan
“I wonder whether you are aware of the variety of aircraft in your AirForce,
you’re still operating with Hunters Spitfires,Vampires,Liberators
Harvards;exotic names of World War II vintage which’re only worthy of finding a place in museum.”
1st Sep 1965 Pakistan launched a massive attack with tanks & heavy artillery. This was 22 days high intensity largest tank battle in Military history between Second World war & 1965. #IndoPak1965 #NeverForgetNeverForgive #LestWeForgetIndia
LalBahadurShastri,proving to be a decicively firm leader,took the historic descion to cross the border into 🇵🇰heartland & punish them!
He gave 🇮🇳Armed Forces a free hand to respond to Pakistani aggression in a manner they deemed fit! It was 6th September 1965! #IndoPak1965
India had delebrately decided to target Pakistani Armoured Division, just 6 of our Centurion & Sherman tank regiments had taken on some 10 Pakistani tank regiments neutralizing them in their own territory! #IndoPak1965 #NeverForgetNeverForgive #LestWeForgetIndia
Lt Col H.R.Janu of 4 Grenadiers says,he counted as many as 103 abondened enemy tanks.
The battle- scarred enemy Patton tanks captured were displayed for some time & shipped to various cantonments & put on display as 'War Trophies'.😊👌🏻 #IndoPak1965#NeverForgetNeverForgive
At the end of a 22-day war
🇮🇳held 1920 sq Km of🇵🇰territory
🇵🇰only held 550 sq Km of 🇮🇳land!
Yet agreeing to a ceasefire after repeated pleas from the major powers, India surrendered everything at the Tashkent Declaration in Jan1966.. #NeverForgetNeverForgive #IndoPak1965
Hamas ensured that the world watches what they did to the Jews on Oct 7,
but none saw the pain of the 50 lakh plus Hindus brutally tortured, disrobed & paraded, humiliated & raped, mutilated & butchered in 1947;
the ordeal that the few survivors could share, also went unheard & eventually died down with them..
@sharan_shivani in her #podcast brings to you, the pain & sorrow of a 10 yr old survivor who now is 86…
#1947HorrorsOfPartition
..how have their lives been, who saw with their own eyes their mothers, sisters, wives physically abused by jihadis who were their neighbours/ friends!
How did they live through the memories of their homes, villages being looted, burnt, captured,
their families ruined, their dear ones being butchered..
If the memory from age l 10 can make a man cry at 86, imagine the trauma he has lived through..
I’ve been sharing since long, my family saga with you tweeps, I regret not having video-graphed their ordeal🥲
What was happening on the
‘Line of Divide’ when Nehru was giving the speech of Independence!
Today, in a thread, I shall tell you about the so called:
“True spirit of #Sufism in Kashmir”,
The delusions of who so ever concerned,
about #Sufis & #Kashmiriyat (that has been wiping clean, the natives from their homeland since early 14th century), must be cleared once &… https://t.co/tOI1PohXZGtwitter.com/i/web/status/1…
1) Birth of the 1st masjid in #Kashmir
courtesy the 1st #Sufi Bulbul Shah/ Sharf-Ud-Din Abdul Rehman who converted the Raja & 10,000 Hindus in 1324.
So, the ones who claim Kashmir to be their property, were all Hindus who abandoned their Dharma on the point of sword!
The first thing that Sufi Sayid Ali Hamdani do on setting foot on the land of Kashyap Rishi, was to break Maa Kali Mandir & build a Khanqah over it!
His son, Amir Sayid Mahmood wiped off Hindus from Kashmir, razed Mandirs, together with Sikandar Shah Miri/ Butshikan.
Should you consume all those stress hormones- the extreme psychological stress, fear, physical/ mental fatigue, dehydration, that the animal experiences before being slaughtered for its meat?
#Thread
What meat is #Halal ?
Methods of killing diffrent animals for their meat, as per sharia.
Zibah-al-Ikhtiyaariy- killing an animal reciting, “Bismill@h All@hu Akb@r”, using a sharp knife.

For once, stop singing praises, posting selfies, counting followers please!
For once, scream on top of your voice to get justice for #PakHinduRefugees who belong nowhere,neither Bharat nor pakistan!
For once, try to know where they slept last night after their homes were raized!
What’s the fault of #HindusOfPakistan who were left to die there by the #Nehru gov whose edu minister left’m as ‘hostage population’ to be slaughtered when India’s arm needed to be twisted in favour of Ms in 🇮🇳? #ThreadsOfThreads about what those who’ve come here have got!
Where are #PakHinduRefugees supposed to live when they come begging refuge in a land that is rightfully there’s?
Does state/ centre gov have any camps for them?
NO‼️
So what do they do, how do they survive?
2/n
They buy small pieces of land from ppl in 🇮🇳at exorbitant prices by selling the last piece of silver on their women or child’s body, & by slogging on daily wages, build whatever small structure they can!
One fine day @JdaJodhpur wakes up & says, that land is illegally occupied!
What a pity!
We say that India does not produce athletes,but when girls from remote villages win medals after medals
do we even bother to know who’s the financial support behind them & how he manages it year after year? @jindz
is that man, striving hard to keep the flame burning
Dehradun Ice Rink shut by #Uttarakhand gov, is where last International tournament took place in in 2012, despite question in Parliament in, 2015, it remains shut!

Indian women’s Ice Hockey team ‘s participating in #IIHF Ice Hockey Asia & Oceania Championship, hence is training in Bangkok since 11th April 2023. Since this sport is not well known, Indian media doesn’t cover it, business houses don’t sponsor it! @gauravcsawant@AnchorAnandN
