The 𝐍𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐥𝐝 𝐬𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐥 has roots going back to 𝟏𝟗𝟓𝟎🕰️
𝐒𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐚𝐫 𝐕𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐛𝐡𝐛𝐡𝐚𝐢 𝐏𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐥, then Home Minister, had raised red flags about the shady funding of the newspaper. He even wrote directly to the then-Prime Minister 𝐍𝐞𝐡𝐫𝐮, warning him.
But Nehru 𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐬𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 not out of ignorance, but because he was laying the foundation of a 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐞𝐦𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐞 that his family would milk for generations.💰
Today, that ignored warning echoes in a ₹𝟓,𝟎𝟎𝟎 𝐜𝐫𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐬𝐜𝐚𝐦 involving 𝐒𝐨𝐧𝐢𝐚 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐑𝐚𝐡𝐮𝐥 𝐆𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐡𝐢. 💸
👇Uncovering the story of 𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐟𝐫𝐚𝐮𝐝 and political entitlement.
🗓️𝐌𝐚𝐲 𝟓, 𝟏𝟗𝟓𝟎:
Sardar Patel wrote a detailed letter to Nehru, exposing how the 𝐍𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐥𝐝 took ₹75,000 from two corrupt businessmen linked to 𝐇𝐢𝐦𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐲𝐚𝐧 𝐀𝐢𝐫𝐰𝐚𝐲𝐬.
🚫That company had 𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐠𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐛𝐚𝐠𝐠𝐞𝐝 𝐚 𝐠𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭 for night air mail, bypassing even the Indian Air Force’s objections.
This wasn’t some minor lapse; it was 𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐫𝐮𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐨𝐩, and the Prime Minister chose to look the other way.
Sardar Patel didn’t hold back. He exposed how the 𝐍𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐥𝐝 took money from 𝐀𝐤𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐢, a shady businessman facing multiple cheating cases. Akhani was using fake 𝐧𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐦𝐚𝐢𝐥 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐬 to launder money.
💼The deal was so dirty, it drew protests and even veiled allegations of ‘manoeuvring’ by giants like the 𝐓𝐚𝐭𝐚𝐬 and 𝐀𝐢𝐫 𝐒𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐢𝐜𝐞𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐈𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐚.
Patel went further and 𝐧𝐚𝐦𝐞𝐝 𝐀𝐡𝐦𝐞𝐝 𝐊𝐢𝐝𝐰𝐚𝐢, a Congress minister, for collecting funds from 𝐝𝐮𝐛𝐢𝐨𝐮𝐬 𝐬𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐜𝐞𝐬 in Lucknow.
Today, the BJP-led NDA Government under the leadership of PM @narendramodi has taken a historic step to free Waqf properties and deliver justice with the Waqf Amendment Bill 2024 – the UMEED (Unified Management, Empowerment, Efficiency & Development) Bill.
UMEED, for orphans, for widows, and for the needy!
A thread on why this is the need of the hour. ⏬
#WaqfAmendmentBill
A staggering 40,951 land cases are pending in Waqf Tribunals, 9,942 of which were filed by poor Muslims themselves.
A snapshot of everything that’s wrong at the moment: Several instances show that land donated to build schools for Muslim children were illegally sold and leased for commercial use. 🏫
#WaqfAmendmentBill
The Waqf Act of 2013 also gave the Waqf Board unchecked control over land, with no accountability. The result?
A mere ₹163 crore in annual returns at a horrific 2.7%, while the Sachar Committee estimated a potential revenue of ₹12,000 crore; a massive gap that could have transformed welfare for people from the Muslim community. 💰
India's diplomatic strength was on full display in May 2017 when the Modi Government rescued Uzma Ahmed from a forced marriage in Pakistan.
Recently dramatised in the John Abraham-starrer 𝑇ℎ𝑒 𝐷𝑖𝑝𝑙𝑜𝑚𝑎𝑡, this real-life operation showcased swift governance, led by former EAM Late Smt Sushma Swaraj Ji and diplomat J.P. Singh, ensuring Uzma’s safe return.
Uzma Ahmed's ordeal began when she was deceived by a Pakistani man in Malaysia and lured to Pakistan, where she was drugged, forced into marriage at gunpoint, assaulted, and held captive in Buner, in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
In her own words, after returning to India, Uzma described Pakistan as a "well of death," stating, "It's easy to go to Pakistan, but tough to return".
Trapped in Pakistan, Uzma tricked the greedy Ali into taking her to the Indian High Commission under the pretext of collecting dowry. Once inside, she revealed her ordeal to Deputy High Commissioner J.P. Singh, who acted swiftly, ensured her safety and informed the-then EAM Sushma Swaraj.
Upon verifying her Indian citizenship, Swaraj firmly declared, “𝐸𝑣𝑒𝑛 𝑖𝑓 𝑤𝑒 ℎ𝑎𝑣𝑒 𝑡𝑜 𝑘𝑒𝑒𝑝 ℎ𝑒𝑟 𝑎𝑡 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝐻𝑖𝑔ℎ 𝐶𝑜𝑚𝑚𝑖𝑠𝑠𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑎 𝑦𝑒𝑎𝑟 𝑜𝑟 𝑡𝑤𝑜, 𝑤𝑒 𝑤𝑖𝑙𝑙.”
Karnataka Congress has amended the KTPP Act to reserve 4% of government tenders for Muslim contractors.
This is nothing but blatant minority appeasement and an open attack on OBCs, SCs, and STs.
🚨Congress has snatched 4% from OBCs and handed it over to Muslims under ‘Category-II B’.
Here’s the full expose of Congress’ malicious machinery! 👇
📜 FACT CHECK:
India's Constitution does NOT allow reservations based on religion.
In 2011, Congress tried to sneak in a 4.5% Muslim quota within OBCs.
It was struck down by the courts.
Now, they've brought the same unconstitutional scam back to Karnataka.
⚖️ LEGAL BLUNDER:
In 2023, the Hon’ble Calcutta High Court struck down Bengal's Muslim quota.
Congress's move will meet the same fate. But before that...
👉 The damage will be done.
👉 Muslim contractors will fill their pockets.
👉 Congress will milk Muslim votes in 2028.
Tamil Nadu’s education system is collapsing because of disastrous policies, and DMK is directly responsible for it. Instead of fixing schools, they’re playing language politics to cover up their failures. Let’s break down their disastrous policies. 🧵👇
The Annual Status of Education Report (ASER) 2024 confirms Tamil Nadu’s students are falling behind. Between 2018-2022, the % of Std VIII students who can read Std II-level text dropped by 12%, while BJP-ruled states like UP, Gujarat & Haryana improved. DMK has FAILED an entire generation.
After the introduction of the New Education Policy 2020, CM Stalin chose to reject ₹10,000 crore in central education funding, which had the potential to fund thousands of students’ education. The DMK's dynastic model fears a well-educated, self-reliant generation which could reshape the political landscape, and that’s what truly worries the DMK.
