Jai Shri Ram!

Jai Shri Ram!
- He bows on behalf of millions of Hindus who've cherished the dream of a Ram temple in Ayodhya for hundreds of years.
- Also, now there is no need to be apologetic about your Hindu identity.

- I was 10-11 when I visited Ayodhya; this was before Babri Masjid demolition.
- First thing that struck me was the presence of security forces and the frisking we'd to go through to even enter the premises.
- Next we came to the 'Janamsthan' (I think +
+ that is what it was called)
- It was was a deep pit in the ground with a Pujari inside.
- And my reaction was - 'This is where Shri Ram was born? Why is it kept in such a manner?'
- I had some stray idea about the Babri-Masjid dispute but the reality dawned on me when I +
+ reached Ayodhya.
- Because I was expecting a temple. And what I saw was completely different.
- As kids, we were taught Hanuman Chalisa from a very early age.
- My paternal side has a small temple dedicated to Shri Ram in my hometown which my father, before he joined the +
+ army, used to maintain, come rain, come shine.
- And this temple is situated in at a place which was then pretty inaccessible (top of a hill with access path through thick jungle/bush).
- He used to go twice a day, even before he was 10, to clean the temple, light the diya and+
+ do the pooja.
- Coming from a marginal background, he faced many a difficulties. But in all these, it was his faith in 'his' Shri Ram which gave him solace and strength.
- We inherited Prabhu Shri Ram from him.
- No major occasion is complete in our family w/o a visit to +
+ this temple.
- So, imagine my confusion when I saw Shri Ram in that pit in the open!
- I haven't visited Ayodhya since.
- I will do so when the temple is complete.
- Life will come full circle for me.
- And I'm lucky that I will get to see the temple in my lifetime
+
+
- And the best part, I'll take my children along.
- And they'll get to see the birthplace of Maryada Purshottam Prabhu Shri Ram in all its glory.
#JaiShriRam #JaiSiyaRam
Today, he's kept the faith of so many Hindus like her.
The exile is over.
Prabhu Shri Ram has returned back home.

Royal family which chose to stay in Pakistan post partition and whose rulers actively participated in Pakistani politics along side Bhutto.
⬆️This seems to have irked self-declared defenders of Rajput pride.
- And they're hiding behind the technicality of Amarkot (renamed now as Umerkot) being a Jagir and not a Princely State and hence, had no say in partition.
- What these geniuses will not tell you is that the +
+ then Rana of Amarkot (Rana Arjun Singh) actually fought the decisive 1946 election under Muslim League and won!
- Imagine, his predominantly Hindu electorate voted for their Rana in an election which marked the call for partition of India.
- Jinnah was also very keen +

Meta guy was giving a way out to @thewire_in by bringing in 'Wire might've been subjected to a hoax' angle rather than directly accusing them of forgery. Rather then take the lifeline, our commie journalist gang is doubling down on digging a deeper hole for themselves.
By trying to brazen it out on a technology related issue on Twitter, Wire has exposed itself to Indian RW crowd - many of whom could wipe the floor with Wire's tech team with their pinky finger! Don't cry when you'll be shredded to pieces.
#Wire
All that Meta did was put out two statements with a consistent message - report by Wire is based on fabricated documents. Wire desperately tried to prove itself correct but ended-up digging an even bigger hole for itself. And today, Wire has thrown in the towel. And how!

- BTW, when people crib about order qty for systems like LCH, please understand that production rate has to match the absorption rate with a Service.
- It takes time to create infra and more critically, trained manpower to operate & maintain a new system.
- Larger the existing+
+ pool, easier and faster to absorb a new system.
- Take the case of artillery - it has a huge manpower and infra pool to quickly absorb new guns.
- Plus, new guns while being more modern, are not radically different from earlier guns.
- Army Aviation Corps is in an +
+ expansion phase.
- Cheetah, Chetak, Dhruvs, Rudra and now LCH.
- There is only that much manpower available to milk and divert for new inductions and raising(s).
- I expect pilots from IA's Rudra squadrons to form nucleus of LCH induction.
- But manpower is limited and +

- Here are some interesting points on the disengagement site discussed by @VishnuNDTV
- First, these Chinese posts are opposite PP15 in the side valley going north from Kugrang River.
- Its NOT in Gogra or Hot Springs region which have PP17A, PP17 and PP18
- Map in next tweet +
- Overview of the Chang-Chenmo Sector.
- You can see PP15&16, Chinese claim line (red) and location of the Chinese site under discussion.
- The LAC here is not in dispute here and this is the first time Chinese have created claim extending across their 1959 claim line and LAC +
+ Why were the Chinese acting antsy here?
- Because PP15 leads directly to upper reaches of Galwan river (blue line) which has large Chines presence.
- Chinese fear Indian attack along this axis.
- Forget direct assault; even Indian artillery placed in Kugrang Valley can +

Future IT Hub?
- Given another episode of infra woes in Bangalore, questions are being asked, again, as to why no other city can emerge as the IT hub?
- Let me share with you a real world experience from my professional life, which I hope will answer this +
#bangalorerains
+ question to some extent.
- Many moons ago, I was consulting for a big developer, who for some reason had huge land bank in Mysore.
- A part of their leadership believed that given the proximity of Mysore to Bangalore, IT/ITES office demand will spill into Mysore as well.
+
+ Some others were skeptical and this is where my company came into picture.
- How do you address this question?
- Well, we devised a plan where we basically went and met a wide variety of IT/ITES companies in Bangalore and Mysore to take their opinion on Mysore as possible +

@elmihiro @arzandc This is the ground reality, one can slice & dice it anyway one wants:
1. In the 90s and before 2014, the Chinese managed to claim & occupy 100s of sq.km of Indian territory with only a couple of Border Defense Regiments (BDR).
2. The Chinese literally fingered +
@elmihiro @arzandc + India so much that the Indian Army started a process of bringing existing formations back to their original strength (diluted earlier as troops were moved into Kashmir for CI Ops) and adding new formations.
3. This happened in Eastern Ladakh, Himachal-Tibet border, and +
@elmihiro @arzandc + Uttarakhand-Tibet border. Plus, Sikkim-Tibet sector.
4. Has anyone tried to understand why the Chinese went to such a great length to induct troops from outside Tibet this time as they tried to grab more territory?
5. Answer lies in what happened in September 2014 in Chumur +
