“With the grace of Prophet Mohammed and Allah, almost all Hindus in Calicut are converted to Islam. Only on the borders of Cochin State a few are still not converted. I am determined to convert them also very soon. I consider this as Jehad to achieve that object.” - Tipu Sultan..
..in his letter to Syed Abdul Dulai.

“Don’t you know I have achieved a great victory recently in Malabar and over four lakh Hindus were converted to Islam? I am determined to march against that cursed ‘Raman Nair’ very soon (referring to the king of Travancore)..
..Since I am overjoyed at the prospect of converting him and his subjects to Islam, I have happily abandoned the idea of going back to Srirangapatanam now." - Tipu in his letter to Budruz Zuman Khan. #TipuSultan
“Over 12,000 Hindus were ‘honoured’ with Islam. There were many Namboodiris (Brahmins) among them. This achievement should be widely publicised among the Hindus. There the local Hindus should be brought before you and then converted to Islam...
...No Namboodiri (Brahmin) should be spared. Also they should be confined there till the dress materials sent for them, reach you.”-Tipu's letter dated March 22, 1788, to Abdul Kadir
“I am sending two of my followers with Mir Hussain Ali. With their assistance, you should capture and kill all Hindus. Those below 20 may be kept in prison and 5,000 from the rest should be killed by hanging from the tree-tops. These are my orders.”- Tipu Sultan...

Reproducing some of the writings/speech by this Stalinist known as an 'eminent historian':

1. Lord Indra is 'rowdy & amoral'.
2. The god Krishna has a 'rather questionable personal record'.
3. Lord Shiva is just 'a development of phallic cults'.
4. Bhakti is just the reflection of the complete dependence of the serfs or tenants on the landowners in the context of Indian feudal society.
5. Another myth which, through repetition has been made to stick to the artifact called Hinduism is that it is a tolerant religion.
6. Hinduism is d youngest of all religions, a 19th-century neologism popularized by d British.
7. Nor did any sanatandharma exists,it had to wait for its first codification by d Englishwoman, Annie Besant who,in collaboration with..Bhagwan Das drew up a textbook on sanatandharma.

The 'greatest Hindu' blamed Hindus for the Moplah genocide of Hindus. Gandhi said:

"Hindus must find out the causes of Moplah fanaticism. They will find that they are not without blame...it is no use now becoming angry with the Moplahs or the Muzulmans in general." 26th Jan 1922
After the Moplah genocide of Hindus, the 'greatest Hindu' asked Hindus to love Moplahs more. Gandhi said:

"..Even so is it more necessary for a Hindu to love the Moplah and the Muzulman more when the latter is likely to injure him or has already injured him" 26th Jan 1922
The 'greatest Hindu' whitewashed the Moplah genocide of Hindus by calling it a revolt and felt that it came as a blessing. Gandhi said:

"I feel the Moplah revolt has come as a blessing to a system that is crumbling to pieces by the weight of its own enormity" 20th Oct 1921

Sri Aurobindo's thoughts on the "biggest Hindu":

"He [Gandhi] has no reason in him at all, never was reasonable at any moment in his life & I suppose never will be..I don't think he is himself really sure what he will do next.He has not only 2 minds but 3 or 4 minds."
31/7/1932
"Gandhi is a European- truly a Russian Christain in an Indian body...What he preaches is not Indian spirituality but something derived from Russian Christianity, non-violence, suffering, etc" - Sri Aurobindo on 22nd June 1926
"All his [Gandhi] preaching is derived from Christianity and though the garb is Indian the essential spirit is Christian. He may not be Christ, but at any rate, he comes in continuation of the same impulsion." - Sri Aurobindo on 22nd June 1926

Today is d birth anniversary of d veteran historian R. C. Majumdar who refused to bend history to suit the interest of secularists & presented Izl@mic imperialism in medieval India as it was & not as Stalinist & Muzlim historians & d politicians were tailoring it to become. (1/n)
For him, this “national integration” based on willful blindness to the recorded history of the havoc wrought by Izl@m in India, could lead only to national suicide. (2/n)
He writes: "Unfortunately, slogans and beliefs die hard and many Indians especially Hindus are peculiarly sensitive to any comments or observations touching upon the communal relation in any way. (3/n)
