So this tweet landed up on my TL some days ago. The contrast is striking indeed.
Prompted me to go exploring Google Earth to see if there are more such 'contrasts' in other parts of the country as well.

It didn't take me long to realize that all one needed to identify a military area in a city was to just find the greenest part and zoom in!
Don't believe me?
Well, here is Lucknow Cantonment for you - an island of green inside a concrete ocean!

Moving on to Pune, things weren't much different out there either!
Once again, not much of a difference!

#NDTV
What did NOT surprise me was the absence of their favourite word - 'Alleged' in this news report.
Of course, it turned out to be fake!
Damn you Social Media .. Hamara channel toh waise bhi koi nahi dekhta, aur ab tum log yahan bhi jhooth nahi bolne dete 😭 ImageImage
^^
Of course, we at #NDTV know how to do 'thook kar chaatna'. Zaroori hai hamare liye, you know!
So THIS is the latest example of our mastery over this art - The incident MAGICALLY turned from 'Attacked' to 'Reportedly Attacked' to ultimately 'Received Threat Calls'!

 Let me replug this tweet about #NDTV from early into this thread.
I'll tell you why I do this, in the tweet that follows.

#ObituaryOfTheDay
Naik Subash Thapa, 3/5 Gorkha Rifles.
This 25 year old Bir Gorkhali soldier, hailing from Bagdogra, was martyred on the LoC this day last year in Naushera.
Today is his first martyrdom anniversary.
Remember him, anyone? ImageImageImage
^^
#ObituaryOfTheDay
The local community came together and ensured that their young martyr is immortalized, forever inspiring the next generation, many of whom too will join the Indian Army like Subash and countless others before him.

So the BBC showed this map of India on 19 Jul 2020 as part of a report on flooding in Assam.
#JustSaying ImageImage
2/2
 Of course they were called out for being .. well .. BBC!
So they changed the map. Yet the clever ones could not bring themselves to hiding their blinkered glasses.
They shaded the correct limits of Indian territory, yet they couldn't bring themselves to acknowledge it all! Image
On a similar note, here is another map of India in "The Mirror" of UK some years ago.
Very subtle indeed!
They corrected it later, though. Image

Ok folks, carrying on from this thread on J&K history quoted below, let me now share some thoughts about the legal status of Jammu and Kashmir as it stands today.
In spite of successive Indian Governments’ insistence that the whole of Jammu and Kashmir has been integral part of India since the signing of Instrument of Accession, doubts have been raised by many on its legality.
This is due to deliberately created false narratives by Pakistan and other inimical elements, which has cluttered the issue. This thread will attempt to de-clutter the same and bring out the fact that the whole region indeed belongs to India without a shadow of doubt.

Ok folks, so since Gilgit-Baltistan has been in news quite a bit in the past few days and weeks, let me share some perspective on PoJK and Gilgit-Baltistan.
In this thread, I intend talking about a historical perspective to the issue and the legal status of PoJK / GB.
Here goes..
But first, I will share this video of the Prime Minister of India speaking from the Red Fort not very long ago.
Then last year, after the abrogation of Articles 370 and 35A, came these statements from the Home Minister, clearly specifying the territorial limits of Jammu and Kashmir.
