I'll be tweeting in the coming week about Neomi Rao who is Trump's pick for Kavanaugh's seat on the DC Circuit Court, a lifetime appointment. The picture is from Trump's Diwali event at the White House where he announced Rao's nomination. It's important to #StopRao.
As Trump's regulatory czar, Rao heads up an office that endangers public protections of the environment, civil rights, and women's safety and health. Rao is unfit to serve as a federal judge. Read this from @vanitaguptaCR at @civilrightsorg. civilrights.org/rao-is-unfit-t… #StopRao
And, Rao's recently-discovered writings reveal her alarming viewpoints on date rape, sexual assault, multiculturalism, and same-sex relationships. Here's one of them. More: afj.org/neomi-rao Rao shouldn't be on the federal bench. #StopRao

Over 15,000 soldiers backed by tanks, medium artillery, helicopters and transport aircraft will be part of the Mountain Strike Corps’ maiden exercise, ‘HimVijay’, at over 10,000 feet in Arunachal Pradesh next month.
The exercise will be held away from the Line of Actual Control with China. It will coincide with the visit of President Xi Jinping next month. The exercise assumes greater significance because the Army will for the first time see in action its integrated battle groups (IBGs).

Appeal to #Hindu Parents: Don’t Let Your #Daughter be the next #Riya/#Maansi/#khhusi.🙏

Recently 3 Hindu girls have been brutally snatched away from Hindu samaj. Their names should be etched in our collective memory: Riya, Maansi, and Khushi. They all fell prey to #Muslim men.
They were all #beautiful: two of them were successful models, and the third was an aspiring air-hostess. They were #modern, #urban, #educated. Khushi had been a finalist in the #Miss_India pageant recently. #LoveJihad 😷
#Maansi had executed several #modelling contracts. #Riya was sure to make it to a top airline as a hostess. They were all below 21. #lovejihad 🔇

#Khushi was only 19,
#Maansi was 20,
#Riya 21 years old.

Upset by Manafort verdict in the US? Mad at the alt-right coming back to San Francisco in May or by Brexit coming to the UK? Unsure about the future of Europe? Remember what happened to the world in the 1930s? Can we do anything? #YesWeCan 👇👇👇
Now is the time to take action. Here 👇is a concrete step. If you are in the US, watch, learn, like and share with others 👇. If you are an EU citizen, watch, like, share & make sure to vote 23--26 May 2019, to save the EU from the Russian mafia state and locally-bred extremists.
Putin's goal is the dissolution of NATO, dissolution and weakening of the EU and the subversion of the Western liberal democracies. The European Union Parliament in Putin's hands is a danger to the US and the whole world. Act now. facebook.com/Avaaz/videos/2…

Alright folks, a little primer on Hindutva or the Hindu Right Wing, to which presidential hopeful Tulsi Gabbard has ties. This is meant for Americans without much, if any, prior knowledge of India. #Hindutva #TulsiGabbard THREAD
Hindutva & Hinduism are two separate things, in two separate categories. Hinduism is a religion. Hindutva is a political ideology. They are as far apart as Christianity vs. white supremacy. I've no beef with Hinduism. But basic justice & equality are incompatible with Hindutva.
What is Hindutva? In brief, it is the notion that India ought to be land for Hindus, by Hindus. It condemns other Indians to being second-class citizens and accepting increasing Hindutva-fueled violence against minorities in the form of lynchings, morality enforcing mobs, etc.

Depiction of a temple having a dome and entrance framed within a 'pointed arch'
Dated: ~1-3rd century CE
Entrance is likely derived from arched torana with concentric arches, space between them is beautifully decorated with scrollwork and floral patterns. #Gandhara
Dome of the temple was capped by Kalasha.

Fortunately there are various temples same features which survived the wrath of Islamic invaders. See the one in below link

In the above temple, we can see the space for similar projected door frame.
Head of Skanda, Peshawar

Dated: ~2-3rd century CE
