Time to lighten the TL a bit and share some of my favourite #SongsFrom60s

#SongsFrom60s from 1969 movie Waapas - music composition by Laxmikant Pyarelal
#SongsFrom60s form movie Sambandh, this song was to be originally sung by Mohd Rafi, who arrived 2 hours late. That angered composer OP Naiyar so much that he packed up everything, told producer to charge him for losses & gave the song to Mahendra Kapoor!
This classical one by Manna Dey on Roshan’s composition is from movie Dooj Ka Chaand - can u ever expect Bollywood to churn something like this today? #SongFrom60s
Pictured on Waheeda & Kanwaljeet,this song from movie Shagoon is a fav-composition was by Khaiyaam & duet was sung by Suman Kalyanpur & Rafi - led to both marriage of Waheeda & Kanwaljeet #SongFrom60s @MukulAgarwal66
#SongFrom60s from Shehnai and music by Ravi

I remember recording this song on a cassette - composition by MadanMohan and sung by Talat, this song is one of my fav #SongFrom60s

This song in the soothing voice of Mukesh from movie Himalaya Ki God Mein was Kalyanji AnandJi composition - one awesome song - close ur eyes and note the start of the song #SongFrom60s

#SongFrom60s lyrics by Indeevar, composition of Roshan (his last movie) in the divine voice of Mukesh & shot on Sanjeev Kumar : unarguably one song which had some of the best human beings of their era of Bollywood come together to create this masterpiece

#SongFrom60s - pictured on Nimmi, music composition of Chitragupt, this Majrooh song was sung by one and only one @mangeshkarlata ji

Congress time politics of handing out doles gave us bureaucrats, who were so used to getting plum posts that “neither tired, nor retired” used to be the motto of their lives. So they were called NTNRB’s - neither tired nor retired babus. And this list used to be endless!
Came 2014 & common Indians powered another commoner and a rank Lutyen outsider to the top seat of Delhi —-> PM @narendramodi. The babus on the verge of retirement and the NTNRBs were so accustomed to dealing with Cong that an unknown customer was too hot to handle!
But then PM @narendramodi - a firm believer in the integrity of institutions - much to the liking of this strange breed known as bureaucrats,continued to function with congress era bureaucrats. He knew what he was doing but smart asses of Indian babudom saw in him a pliable one!

This tweet by @madhukishwar reminds me of this poem “ The Karma of Immunity “ by Gopi Warrier, talking abt positives of Ayurveda. Everyone attacking Ayurveda following arguments with @yogrishiramdev shud see this. You can’t take on science of life! Image
So many Docs, in say Britain, think that Lancet is God but so many doctors outside India feel Indian docs are the best in the world and most Indian docs respect Ayurveda. Actually it will be good if firms like @DaburIndia @ZanduCare etc work with docs to help fight propaganda!
Companies like @ZanduCare @baidyanathgroup @DaburIndia @Ach_Balkrishna that they shud liaise with @aiims_nd and @MoHFW_INDIA to end this anti Ayurveda propaganda forever. Quoting again a poem from Gopi Warrier that I love... titled “The Karma of Immunity”

This was @ShekharGupta on 18/3/21 blamed Govt for centralised vaccination policy.

Govt liberalised it & told centres to fend for themselves for 18-44; most Cong ruled states faltered & cudnt procure a single vaccine

@narendramodi centralised it again & Gupta tweeting cricket! Image
Here is @ShekharGupta on 17/4 blaming centralised vaccination in reply to @TheJaggi

Today’s decision by @narendramodi shows how in a sharply polarised polity where @RahulGandhi run Cong/Kejri are in a bottomless pit to make vaccination fail, centralisation alone can work! Image
Had to delete this tweet as don’t want copyright violation blame - hence screenshot Image

Yes, this was a quote from one of the articles that Nirad C Chaudhary wrote for @TheStatesmanLtd on 15 Aug 1994 titled `British Rule is Dead, Long Live British Rule'
And what led Nirad Chaudhary to write this- his experience with his job as clerk of Calcutta Municipal Corporation & his job as Private Secretary of Sarat Chandra Bose, when he was Bengal Congress Chief!
Nirad Chaudhary saw large-scale corruption at Calcutta Municipal Corp. (an org run by Indians with no British interference) & was disenchanted with the machinations of Congress, he saw as Pvt Secy of Bose - which he felt would increase as India would gain independence.

Check comparison of "Covid19 deaths" data between USA and India. The speed of the wave was ferocious, undoubtedly so. But I do hope that someday folks will ask the Q'n to Indian media that damaged this war on covid by its sensational reporting, leading to run-in on resources!
Had Delhi not been hit this ferociously, media frenzy wouldn't have been that severe. India and Indians paid through the lives of their loved ones because of Indian media's obsession with Delhi & its hate for @narendramodi - pandemic reporting lacked sensitivity and objectivity!
Just check this weekly trend-wave of pandemics by nature,are meant to follow this trajectory - cases rise exponentially first & then curve starts flattening while death continues to go up before it also starts to fall. Unlike other countries, wave in India lasted close to a month

SC have appropriated lot of powers, destroying constitution by interfering in Executive & legislative functions; have caused immense harm in getting things done for overall good of the country. Worst is courts don't work on set principles but based on whims n fancies of judges
SC / HCs are biggest violators of FoE - they stop anyone reporting court proceedings of matters related to misdemanours of Judges,family & whosoever they consider as one belonging to their creed. At the same time strictures against central agencies & GoI are published liberally.
Most of those comments are actually meant to create headlines and reflect the whims and fancies of individual judges - PM @narendramodi Govt would do well to bring a case to stop this practise of making headlines via court commentary
