@bubblesmoney @sarkar_swati One I remember is Dyer invited to the Golden Temple by Arur Singh, the chief mahant , to be made an honorary Sikh [for reaction to this see Mohinder Singh, "Jallianwala Bagh and Changing Perceptions of the Sikh Past" in Datta, Settar(eds) Jallianwala Bagh Massacre (Delhi, 2000)]
@bubblesmoney @sarkar_swati Not only that there are indications that local elite, including primarily Sikh (but also Muslims& some Hindus) deliberately "disinformed" O'Dyer, Dyer, Kitchin, Benyon to intervene claiming armed rebellion underway to confirm Brit chauvinists in their mindset prior to 13th April.
@bubblesmoney @sarkar_swati Hunter's reports, Sankaran Nair's submissions- include evidence of O'Dyer/Dyer& gangs reliance on elite contacts, Indian police informants - all showing increasing distance frm the middle/lower sections -and eagerness to use Brit action to "control" uppity commoners post Rowlatt.

@JoyJ69957841 @maidros78 @A1A2A3A4A786 @authorAneesh @Ram_Guha @sarkar_swati and all of these rants from you (many of which are of dubious foundations) still doesnt give any reason as to why Tipus jihadi actions against Hindus cannot be talked about. Can you answer the original question explaining what is wrong in the article detailing Tipus jihad?
@JoyJ69957841 @maidros78 @A1A2A3A4A786 @authorAneesh @Ram_Guha @sarkar_swati there are little to no discussions at all about early physically destructive iconoclasm in Buddhist strands, or the possibility of Buddhist structures having been put upon or taken over from pre-existing pre-Buddhist religions. How does that make Tipus jihad a lie?
@JoyJ69957841 @maidros78 @A1A2A3A4A786 @authorAneesh @Ram_Guha @sarkar_swati u can judge opIndia and blast them as to why they dont publish articles to ur liking: but it still doesnt make Tipus jihad on ground and records of his atrocities on Hindus - a lie.

OK. everyone is teaching lessons to BJP over Delhi. But Delhi voting will only harden voting elsewhere and increase support for BJP. If ppl say "freebies" won election, then freebies can't be self-sustaining for long without gifts from outside the system. Turn those taps off.
the stance (CAA) on which pro-jihadi axis in India is equating the Delhi elections with and gloating on, is a relatively minor policy step with far reaching political signaling that is a mini "Dandi"-march moment - forcing all to choose sides. It seems trivial now.
But its political consequences, through all the vicious smiles of the hyenas arrayed against us, are so far reaching that neither its supporters nor opponents realize now. The enemy is celebrating now, yes, but they will cry in the long run.

@PakRoaster99 @sarkar_swati @m_for_moriarty @gupta_skanda @Achaari_Thepla @maidros78 "I am a frank man. I say bitter things to Hindus and Muslims alike. At the same time I maintain that I am a friend of Muslims." Someone said this on 16th January, 1947, Delhi. It cdnt be Bose, he was not present. Wd u call such a speaker an appeaser of Muslims?
@PakRoaster99 @sarkar_swati @m_for_moriarty @gupta_skanda @Achaari_Thepla @maidros78 "British talk of Hindu-Muslim quarrels, but who has thrust the burden on their shoulders? Give me just a week's rule over Britain; I will create such disagreements that England, Wales and Scotland will fight one another for ever" same speaker, 9/8/45. sounds similar to ur quote?
@PakRoaster99 @sarkar_swati @m_for_moriarty @gupta_skanda @Achaari_Thepla @maidros78 here is talk of compromises and joining hands: a different voice, addressing his org in 1942, but in no way can be called an appeaser of muslims: Image

#Sikh is trending in the UK thanks to some less-than-well-informed comments on the role of Sikhs in the First World War. A great opportunity to fill in some gaps

Perhaps the best example of #AmalgamationArchitecture and the cultural inclusiveness of #Hyderabad under the Nizam is #OsmaniaUniversity Arts College founded in 1918. It's the 1st Indian university to have Urdu (a modern language) as medium of instruction (as opposed to Persian).
Under the last Nizam, Osman Ali Pasha, #Hyderabad was thriving as a center of learning, innovation and technological advancement, free from the dark shadow of colonialism that gripped most of the Subcontinent. Hyderabad was quite insulated from India...
...and developed its own culture, architectural styles, cuisine, and most importantly, language. People from India were referred to as Hindustani and so was their language. The language of Hyderabad was Dakhani (of Deccan), which is very distinct from Hindi or Urdu...

No Name's buddy, Soccermouaz posting a temple. Want to guess where it is?

Syria?

#wellhellsbells #temple #BlueWhite
I've tried to show these temples and symbols are located all over the world.
See #Q1095 for SoccerMouaz pics.

Instagram, April 19th. That date sounds familiar. Does worship include an offerings?

The Amritsar Massacre Fact-Check Part II: Recently, a number of peculiar claims have been made in the press about the Amritsar Massacre and its legacies, that warrant a closer look.

A thread

1/
Claim: The fact that Dyer was made an honorary Sikh in the aftermath of the massacre shows that Sikhs supported him (and his actions).

2/
The manager of the Golden Temple, Arur Singh, who personally honoured Dyer, had been put in office by the British in 1907 and was awarded a CIE in 1913. The Sikh reform movement, the Akali Dal, was highly critical of Arur Singh, who was eventually forced to step down in 1920.

आदरणीय @TrueIndology ,

चित्र में दिया गया कागज़ महाराजा रणजीत सिंह जी के देहावसान के बाद पेहवा में उनके वंशजों द्वारा करवाये हुए कर्म कांड की रसीद है जो रोहतक के (गुमनाम) इतिहासकार श्रीमान विनोद कुमार पंचोली जी के कार्यालय में सुरक्षित है।

THREAD :
पंचोली जी के पूर्वजों ने यह अभिलेख अपनी बहियों में सुरक्षित किया था। उनके पूर्वजों ने महाराजा रणजीत सिंहजी के देहावसान के बाद पिहोवा में पिंडदान की रस्म निभाई थी।

महाराजा रणजीत सिंह "सांसी" जाति के थे!! सिक्खों को हिन्दू धर्म/ कर्मकांड से अलग बताने की कोशिश 1905 से हो रही है !!
@TrueIndology

Can you pls help us understand what is the meaning of writing
"जाट साहसी" on top of the document Maharaja Ranjeet Singh's creation document?

Whole would those react & explain this document, who abuse हरिद्वार, पंडित & कर्मकांड day & night?
