The rapacious "zamindar" has been the archetype of the atrocities of the "caste system" on the poor "lower castes."

But the Zamindar is a Persian word, it status enshrined by the British along European feudal lords. Its not about Hindu "varna", but #ChristoIslamic imperialism.
Quote from @mjakbar—"AN EAST BENGAL IN WEST BENGAL."

In OpentheMagazine.
@mjakbar The British literally constructed Zamindari based on English feudalism. That "caste system" including notion of "blood purity" ("blue blood" of aristocracy) and casting of Indian society groups into a static hierarchy is all a British imperial production.

Congress is indeed the new Muslim League.

The corollary is that the BJP is the new Congress, complete with religion-based schemes and appeasement which discriminate against Hindus. That it used to deride as "pseudo-secular."

So, do we need a new BJP?

Exhibit # 1:

It doesn't want to fix anti-Hindu policies even when it has the power to do so. It says "challenge them in court." 😏 How is that different from Congress?

And here is my detailed article. Shouldn't BJP roll back its anti-Hindu schemes?

The “upper caste” status of Sayeed, Sheikh, Quraishi etc among Indian Muslims comes straight from the Hadith where Mohammad claimed certain tribes as “chosen.”

@Sanjay_Dixit
The denial of education to “low-born” Muslims by fatwa of “high-born” Turkic-Islamic invaders. No Indian Muslim “caste” didn’t come from Hindus but by Islamic race supremacy.
Wow. You needed Ashraf certificate for admission into AMU. Original source?

Btw, the word “sharif” in Urdu comes from reference to the Ashraf caste.

Absolutely true by @nitin_gadkari. The problem starts from the top. IAS people are those that got recruited in their 20s for passing some exams. They have no real experience of the world but for how to game the system and move or stall Govt files for profit.
Inexperience and lack of knowledge combines with a training of supremacy over common people and being “Mai baap.” They are also jealous of their friends in the private sector. So they don’t want private sector to rise. Overall IAS is a disaster for progress. @narendramodi
The same attitude percolates down. There is no accountability, no reward for performance, no fear o being kicked out. Only thing that counts is warming the seat.

The system corrupts.

Is it the job of the prime minister to “give jobs”?

Who “gave jobs”? MM Singh “gave jobs”, other than NREGA ditch digging?

#modi_job_do represents a failed big state communist mindset.

The Govt needs to get out of the way of business which creates jobs. Why not focus on that?
Absolutely. I think there is a failure of the govt to pro-actively communicate and make sure exams are conducted in timely fashion. I'm hearing from a lot of students left high and dry. But that's different from "giving jobs."

Focus on building your skills, jobs are there. I'm looking to hire but hard to find candidates who are sincere, hard-working, willing to learn and have invested in useful skills.

I've even hired people from Twitter who were sincere and persistent. 😌

In India if a woman has consensual sex, but the relationship doesn't lead to marriage, she can claim "rape."

By this definition most women who are dating in the West without later marriage are being "raped." This is how numbers are inflated in India. (though still lower than US)
In this particular case, the woman had an extra-marital affair for 9 years! When husband found out, he divorced her. Then she asked her lover to marry him. When he refused, she claimed "rape." (Apparently she didn't know it was rape for 9 years). And the guy has been arrested!
Of course, men who lie about promises of marriage with no intention of following through are a**holes and should be held to account. But is it "rape" or breach of faith?

Christians and the West should take a thousand year moratorium on “saving” anyone. Whether via “Jesus” or “human rights.” Both are forms of imperialism.
Till the 20th century the West was putting people in human zoos.

They were hunting down aboriginal/tribal people after classifying them as non-human.
