Bollywood: The location is not Seelampur but Film City, and this man is an extra, and what is dripping from his head is ketchup. Image
He can't. But you can. Image
On being asked repeatedly as to what he finds objectionable in the CAA, this man replies: There might be something in there that's problematic, otherwise why are so many out on the streets protesting.

OPEN YOUR EYES. (clip courtesy @LOLiyapa)
Next time I am in Bengaluru, Mr Tanveer Ahmed, wherever you are, whichever police station you are posted in, I will find you, and I will gift you half a kilo of the best Mysorepak there ever was made.

That's a promise. #IndiaSupportsCAA

Yes, he is defending our rights and fighting for our future.

Yes, he can be identified from the clothes he is wearing.

Yes, he is the policeman lying on the road being stoned. Image
Dear @GujaratPolice. This is a demand from us, the citizens of India:

Each stone hurled must be avenged, by arresting and bringing to justice each man who hurled it.

Each stone; each man. Nothing more; nothing less.
The only thing separating journalist Rizwan Khan & 30 police trainees from an anti-CAA mob, was a rickety shop shutter.

Then someone from the mob shouted, "Bring the oil."

SPINE-CHILLING account by Mr Khan captured by @haryannvi in his ground report. swarajyamag.com/politics/groun…
Telling, at multiple levels, that police under Congress alliance in Mumbai acts IMMEDIATELY to disperse & detain protestors for illegally blocking a road, but police under BJP alliance in Delhi allows protestors to illegally block a road for two months.

Well-done, @MumbaiPolice.
Take the blame. Or evade forever the eyes of Head Constable Ratan Lal's eight year-old son.

Ratan Lal, Shahid Khan, Ankit Sharma, Mudassir Khan, Rahul Solanky, Zulfi Khan, Vinod Kumar, Mohd Furkan..

You remove one set of names, you report one set of stories, you conceal one set of tragedies - and that's how you turn a riot into a pogrom, and journalism into propaganda.
Selectivity turns a riot into a pogrom, and journalism into propaganda.

My views on @TimesNow, with @RShivshankar. #DelhiRiotTruth
You believe what you see, but unfortunately what you see is written by those who see what they believe. And they believe that a riot is a pogrom.

Hindu lives matter. As much as Muslim lives do.

My views on @TimesNow. #GenocideJhooth
On the spine-chilling scenes captured in the Delhi riot videos.

Shame on those who called this riot a pogrom, and SHAME on the BBC for showing just one side of the story. My views on @TimesNow with @navikakumar. #ShaheenLynchModel
On the speech by @AmitShah that provided data on the the terrible Delhi riots that have taken 53 lives, of both Hindus and Muslims. Hopefully it should shame those who called the riots a pogrom.

My views on @TimesNow with @RShivshankar. #RiotReportDebate
Even after the startling revelations of today, to those who insist on calling the Delhi riots a pogrom, I ask: Were the 15 Hindus including Ankit converted to Islam before they were murdered?

My views on @TimesNow with @navikakumar #MarkazLinkToDelhiRiots
The two-nation theory might not be a physical manifestation today except in the Valley, but it is very much a mental one, as proven by those who insist on calling the Delhi riots a pogrom.

My views on @TimesNow with @RShivshankar. #DelhiRiotFactCheck
Umar Khalid is the symptom of a disease that inflicts this nation, where those who should be studying and making something of their lives indulge in hate politics because it rewards them.

My views on @TimesNow with @RShivshankar. #UmarLobbySecretTape
On Umar Khalid, the Delhi riots, and the UAPA.

My views on @TimesNow with @RShivshankar.

Hindus in Hindu Rashtra: Victims of State-sanctioned Apartheid.

My talk expounding on eight reasons why Hindus have been reduced to not just second-class citizens but, rather, eighth-class citizens in their own country.

Reason 1: State control of Hindu temples
Hindus in Hindu Rashtra: Victims of State-sanctioned Apartheid. Eight reasons why Hindus have been reduced to not just second-class citizens but, rather, eighth-class citizens in their own country.

Reason 2: The injustice towards Kashmiri Hindus
Eight reasons why Hindus have been reduced to not just second-class citizens but, rather, eighth-class citizens in their own country.

How can a 1500-year-old Tamil Nadu temple be adjudged by Waqf to be on Islamic land when Islam is only 1300 years old?

Reason 3: The Waqf Act

The only way stubble burning can be banned is if we call it Parali Dahan, a Hindu festival wherein according to the Atharva veda, lord Vishnu burnt demon king Paralisura when he enslaved Maruts and storm king Rudra. Only then will it be banned.

My views:
For those blaming Diwali for the state of Delhi air, here's some perspective: An area of 17,900 sqkm, or 12 times the size of Delhi, is on fire, right now, right next to Delhi. 35 million tonnes of stubble is being burnt.

This is the current situation in Punjab. Absolute MURDER. Image
We are outraging only because Delhi is affected by farm fires. 98 million tonnes of stubble is burnt every year in India, ALL YEAR round.

Punjab recorded a crazy 1842 farm fires yesterday. Forget politicians, there ought to be a class action suit against Supreme court judges. Image

“Old and SENILE men like Periyar deserve a place more in a lunatic asylum than in public life. It is HIGH time Periyar and his followers were BANISHED from this land.” - Jawaharlal Nehru

Dare you to say Pt Nehru was an idiot to have said this for Periyar. Don’t run away. WDTT
Shifting goalposts and slinking away from answering straight can work on twitter but I’m afraid the ED and CBI won’t fall for such tricks. Was about to suggest you get some interrogation training but then I remembered you’ve been home-schooled at this.

Have a nice Sunday 😊WDTT
Ha ha, If only you were able to shift your wealth as smoothly as you do goalposts, you’d be safe. Now pay attention, double O six. Fascism was when you went crying to your dad in 2012 and got a man arrested for his harmless tweet. It is you who pines for that past. Bye now. WDTT

This is unacceptable and OUTRAGEOUS. ⁦@Twitter⁩ has indefinitely blocked journalist ⁦@AartiTikoo⁩ for this tweet, where she is looking out for her brother ⁦@TikooSahil_⁩ whose life is being threatened by terrorists. Twitter are you mad? Unblock Aarti. RIGHT NOW. Image
Bravo, @AartiTikoo. BRAVO. Never bow down to these terror apologists at @Twitter.

Dear @Rajeev_GoI. Please take note of this ridiculous and bizarre situation. A sister is being punished for protecting her brother. Never seen anything like it. Image
Laton ke bhoot baton se nahin mante. Aarti takes @Twitter to court for acting against her when all she was trying to do was protect her brother @TikooSahil_ from terrorists.

More power to you, @AartiTikoo. Sahil must be so proud to have a sis like you. And shame on you, @paraga. Image

Exact opposite happened. Govt provided choice on APMC, gave option on contract farming, amended ECA promised by INC, even decriminalised farm fires; while the other side pillaged, raped, murdered, blocked highways.

Do you hire cartoonists or propagandists, @timesofindia? WDTT Image
UNREAL blend of Hindu hatred and Scientific ignorance: 1. Suggesting that evolution is incomplete if you don't convert into Abrahamic religions; 2. Claiming that religions that contradict evolution complete evolution.

Do you hire cartoonists or propagandists, @News9Tweets? WDTT Image
@timesofindia Crazy. Trying to project Elon Musk stifling free speech like the tinpot dictator Idi Amin when he is the exact opposite and trying to rid twitter of Idi Amins, this is not propaganda anymore, this is psychopathy.

No one has ruined Laxman's legacy like the newspaper he drew for. Image
