My Dad had an operation today. As he was being wheeled into the OT, he got the attendant to stop his stretcher so that he could give my brother in law an important message.
His message - "Fridge mein Chicken rakha hai. Bana lena, nahi toh kharab ho jayega!"
😂 #Punjabi!
Update: He had Garlic Chicken for lunch today.
😁
(PS: He says thanks to all who wished him well 🙏)
OK, so I can finally share this here since his COVID-19 test report has come negative.
He was having fever and cough after getting discharged some days ago and we decided to get him tested for COVID.
This is the message my Missus sent to me that day
🤣

So yesterday was the second anniversary of the day an Indian Brahmos landed up in Mian Channu in Bhikharistan. In light of the same, replugging a short thread I did in the immediate aftermath of that.
Here goes!
Folks, sharing some thoughts on the recent trip of a not so distant cousin of Shri Brahmos Ji to the Land of the Pure.
Let's see how this one goes ..
But first let me just write the phrase "Brown Pants", so that now Shri Viveek Agrawal Ji can also read this thread.
Ok, here goes ..
Here's wishing Happy #WalongDay to the heroes of 6 KUMAON.
They went to their deaths heroically & steadfastly, without any fuss, this day in 1962. Just so that a General could please a PM on his birthday.
This day in 1962 - The only attack of the war by Indian army was launched - As a birthday gift from a General to a PM.
A heavy price was paid by the Kumaonis of 6 Kumaon that night.
#WalongDay
Denied even one extra day to prepare for the attack, they went in as ordered. Out of the over 200 men that had gone into the attack, only 90 returned.

A thousand years old Varun Dev Mandir in Manora Island beach Karachi - Being used by Pakistan as a toilet for tourists.
Looks like the tweet above has generated quite some discussion. Apparently, the temple is no longer being utilized as a public toilet for some time now.
That said, replugging a thread tweeted some years back with the hashtag #PakistanAgainstMinorities, chronicling systemic hatred
#PakistanAgainstMinorities
A really interesting interpretation of their flag!

Folks, sharing some thoughts about the ongoing events in Israel.
Let's see how this thread goes ..
But first, let me take you 50 years back - to 06 Oct 1973.
That day, sometime in afternoon, the Egyptians executed a brilliant crossing of the Suez Canal and rushed ahead into the Sinai Peninsula that was theirs till 1967.
At the same time, Syrians too attacked Israel from North.
As for the Israelis, they were caught with utter and complete surprise. Add to it the fact that it was the Yom Kippur Day, most of them were actually celebrating the festival at homes when Egypt and Syria crossed into Israel in a feat of military brilliance.
