Finally got time to start reading "INDIA that is BHARAT!"
#DeColonise vis a vis #DeColonialise - great new additions to popular discourse @jsaideepak
#DeColonialisation - need of the hour. ✨👍
1/5 - Was reminded of a few lines I wrote in response to Faiz's "Bol ke lab azaad hai tere.." while reading Chapter 2 of #IndiaThatisBharat
Do chk it out @jsaideepak @meghkalyan @mmpandit @ksinamdar - U'll like it. 😇🙏

2/5 #Faiz:
Bol ke lab azad hai tere
Bol zuban ab tak teri hai..
-
I Changed it to a dialogue bwn the Colonizer & the Colonized.
-
First the boast of the #Colonizer ..

Bol ke lab azad hai tere
Us mein zubaan par meri hai
Jism dil dimaag hai tera
rooh dhadkan soch meri hai!
3/5
Likhta hai tu teri kalam se
Par syaahi usme meri hai
Jitani taleem mili hai tujhko
kitaabein saari meri hai

Gale ka tu jise haar samajhta
Zanjeer ghulami ki meri hai
Shaan se pehne tu isey phirta
Aisi aiyyari meri hai!
--
Might seem like a summation of Chapter#2 😀
4/5 - Now the response of the De-Colonialized..
-
Khet bhi tera, fasal bhi teri
Par ye nasal toh meri hai
Laakh dabaaya laakhon ne par
Kaayam sabhyata meri hai

Raat hai toh hogi teri
Kal ki subah toh meri hai
Jitani chaahe koshish kar le
Jeet aakhirkar meri hai!
-x-
Shows that..
5/5
Many of us are conscious of the #Colonial mindset but have been using different words to describe it.
- With #IndiaThatisBharat however, we have a good framework to describe and discuss it. #Colonialism.
A great contribution to the war of narratives.💫

Short #Thread on Dating of #Mahabharata with help of refs to river #Saraswati.
1. Read this fantastic paper by @meghkalyan & @ManognaSastry
2. They list 144 verses related to River Saraswati frm MB Text.
3. Of these at least 50 show Saraswati in flow!
academia.edu/38369132/Saras…
2/8
4. Paper also lists various places, along the banks of river Saraswati, at which Balrama stopped during his pilgrimage
5. Saraswati is not flowing with the vigour as described in Rig Veda but is still flowing.
6. This gives great clues for dating effort of Mahabharata.
3/8
7. Megh & Manogna give a terminus ante quem (latest date beyond which MB cannot happen) as around 1900 BC - as Saraswati completely dried up by then.
8. Hence, all dates of Mahabharat later than 1900 BC (1800 BC etc.) are out of the window - going by this research.

@sanjeevsanyal 1/n -The issue is like this:
1. Entire Collection process in Telecom is outsourced to "Collection Agencies!"
2. The Telecallers, with lil if any data, call up all customers with any Outstanding amount, however low it may be!
3. Once due date is gone, calls & music will start..
@sanjeevsanyal 2/n
4. Once next bill is generated, late payment charges also get levied and keeps getting compounded evey month!
5. So, even if 1 rupee remained outstanding WHEN U CLEARED AMT, or thought u cleared - the cycle of late payment and compunded charges starts!
@sanjeevsanyal 3/n
6. No one bothers to see if amt is for usage or late payment or what!
7. Once u cross 30 or 60 days, depending upon company, ur data gets shared with #HARD Collection agencies!
8. Calls become really tough like banking recoveries!
9. Many even say they R calling frm Court!

@swati_gs Swati This Mr. Fact checker @free_thinker has not Fact Checked d link he tweeted.
Author @muqbil_ahmar has falsified &white washed the true meaning.
He has not "wrongly misinterpreted" but "deliberately misrepresented!" As the truth is uncomfortable for him! Chk Screenshots 👇
@swati_gs @free_thinker @muqbil_ahmar 2/n Check the translation (circled in red and blue) & note the words
1. Falsehood &
2. Cast aside
These two words are not even mentioned by Faiz. Look @ portions translated (underlined).

Faiz says "sab (all) but (idols) uthwaaye (will be raised/resurrected)" Image
@swati_gs @free_thinker @muqbil_ahmar 3/n
What Faiz actually means is:

"arze-e-Khuda ke kaabe se" = Frm Kaba/Mecca

"Sab but uthwaye jaayenge" = When all d idols (around 150 idols of various deities that r smashed &kept there) - r raised/resurrected!!

So, Faiz is talking of resurrection of all idols broken by 😷
