1/ It is compulsory in every RSS meeting and program to recite a Sanskrit poem written in 1940 which starts with “namaste sada vatsale matribhume, tvaya hindubhume sukham vardhitoham...” The last line of the poem is in Hindi - Bharat Mata Ki Jai
2/ The poem says Bharat Mata is Hindu Bhumi and the RSS members bow before their Hindu motherland. Hence, for Sangh Pariwar, BMKJ was always an effort to invoke Hindu Nationalism. And as long as ‘Bharat Mata’ is depicted as a Hindu Goddess, it certainly is communal.
3/ Since last few years, BMKJ became an important part of communal politics of Sangh pariwar.
Examples:RSS Supremo Mohan Bhagwat said ‘Bharat Mata Ki Jai’ is essential to nurture nationalism

4/ “Now the time has come when we have to tell the new generation to chant ‘Bharat Mata Ki Jai’. It should be part of all-round development of the youth.” - Mohan Bhagawat, RSS Chief
livemint.com/Politics/ZSPkn…
5/ Anyone who doesn’t say ‘Bharat Mata ki jai’ is anti-national - Dattatreya Hosabale, RSS Joint General Secretary
indianexpress.com/article/india/…
6/ भारत माता की जय न बोलने वालों को PAK भेजा जाए (Those who are not saying BMKJ should be send to Pakistan)- RSS leader Indresh Kumar aajtak.intoday.in/crime/story/th…
7/ Our Constitution describes India as Bharat also, [hence] refusal to chant victory to Bharat is tantamount to disrespect to our Constitution itself - Political resolution passed by BJP National Executive.
But, BMKJ has nothing to do with Constitution

8/ Yogi government directs madrasas to chant Bharat Mata ki Jai
newsx.com/national/yogi-…
9/ Union minister of steel Birender Singh chanted ‘Bharat Mata Ki Jai’ slogan to prove his loyalty to the Bharatiya Janata Party.

If BMKJ is the litmus test to prove loyalty to BJP, the term should never be used in Parliament
hindustantimes.com/india-news/bir…
10/10 People who do not wish to chant ‘Bharat Mata ki Jai’ should be sent to RSS shakhas - Anil Vij, BJP Leader & Cabinet Minister Minister, Haryana
Now, It is for you to decide whether BMKJ is communal and whether you would like to chant it or not :)

1/ Hello @nsitharaman, watched your acting in LS today and it was so good.
Can you please answer few of questions?
Here is the first one👇🏼
thewire.in/government/nar…
2/ Madam @nsitharaman, here is the second one.
If everything was soooooo neat and clean, WHY DID YOUR SUPREME LEADER OVERRULED ALL THE EXPERTS AND TOOK A UNILATERAL DECISION?
thewire.in/security/rafal…
3/ Madam @nsitharaman, if everything was so clean and clear as you claim, why did your government was so scared to submit an affidavit in SC and submitted an unsigned and undated note? Why did you quote the process followed for 126 MMRCA as the process followed for ur boss’ deal?

1/ Modi’s 59 minute loan is a huge scam. A dud company from Ahmedabad, whose promoter is said to be close to Modi has been appointed to process the loans. Company charges “application fee” and if loan is disbursed, 3.5% processing fee. hwnews.in/shows/hw-exclu…
2/ Govt says more than 1 crore people already applied. That means, even if the application fee is ₹1000, company earned ₹1000 crore. Their 2017 business revenue was less than ₹16000. Incidentally couple of directors have the surname ‘Shah’
2/ Now, SIDBI invested 22.5 crore in this dud company.

Another example to show Modi is helping his cronies!

RSS is a cultural organization and believes in peace and non violence.

The so called nationalism and patriotism of RSS - BJP is always subservient to imperialism. From the British days before 1947 to today's Modi rule these pseudo nationalists have remained faithful to their imperialist masters.

RSS and India's Freedom Struggle

Since its inception in 1925, the RSS only tried to disrupt the great anti-imperialist struggle of the Indian people against the British colonial rulers.”

1/18
Hedgewar, the freedom fighter, was a pre-RSS Congressman, arrested and sentenced for a year’s imprisonment for his role in the Khilafat movement (1919-1924) – and that was his last participation in the freedom struggle.

2/18
After his release, Hedgewar, inspired by Savarkar’s idea of Hindutva, founded RSS in Sept 1925. RSS throughout the rest of its life under British Raj, remained subservient to colonising power and opposed mass movements for India’s freedom in every phase of the struggle.

I love feeds and the people I follow on Twitter.

To make it easier to add the websites of the accounts I follow to @feedly, I wrote a little tool that looks for feeds in your URLs and puts them in an OPML file.

Try it with your followings: opml.glitch.me Screenshot of the Twitter Followings to OPML website.
1. Login with your Twitter account
2. Keep the tab open until the download starts*
3. Import the OPML-file with your favorite feed reader
4. Enjoy unfiltered content

* It takes a lot of time, because the tool has to visit every website to search for the feed.
Bonus step: Unfollow feeds that publish too much content you aren't interested in.

#RSS in Indian newsrooms | Thread
TV debates usually follow a template: the anchor, a ruling party voice, couple of Opposition voices, and a ‘neutral’ expert/commentator.
Lately, i.e. in the last four years or so, the neutral expert in most TV debates is an RSS guy. Always a male, he is often an obscure face with little public presence.

Last January I experimented with a book recommendation service.

I wanted to find a way to discover better books.

I found out that if you wanted to recommend nonfiction books, you needed to identify local problems.
What do I mean by local problems?

People seem to prefer nonfiction books that solve their problems (even if they're not aware of the problem).

You hear about this all the time. People accidentally stumble upon a book that changed their whole perspective.
Actually they just had a problem they couldn't solve (or didn't realize) and the book solved it for them.

Or it at least identified the problem.

There is this idea that #Sanskrit is the mother of all the languages. The problem with this idea is that it has no scientific backing. 

What prompts Kannadigas to wrongly claim that European language Sanskrit is the mother of Dravidian language Kannada?
Unlike #Sanskrit..., Tamil is one of the oldest languages, with the longest literary & spoken continuity in the world thehindu.com/lr/2003/08/03/…

#IMLD
As #AIT being proved by universities around the world for last 5 decades by means of Archeological, linguistic cultural facts & by DNA proofs, comparative studies… Hindutva govt at Centre formed a committee to establish that Hindus descended from India’s earliest inhabitants.
