The kabadiwala has stopped asking for plastic “kabaad” now; all they do is come and take newspapers, used papers/magazines & reason is:

Painted in green used to be a cover of a decorated light; turned upside down, filled with manure and soil and it is not part of the garden!
Bathroom stool turned upside down, painted with geroo and it is used to grow guldavri
None of the paint containers leave our boundary wall; once inside, they find their way to the garden after being emptied on to the walls!
This is my favourite - can anyone guess?
Dustbin cover gave away; no worries, parents know how to put it to better use!
Veggie baskets are used to grow saplings of : onion, small ornamental plants etc etc every few months!
Bathroom sink broke; no worries, parents know how to use it better!
Cover of a sewing machine - check that hook in second pic, in the middle

Since last year, @AjiHaaan and I have been tracking role of Germany and how it is meddling in Indian affairs. Consider few points and everything is verifiable:

1. Harsh Mander spent close to a year in Germany on the pretext of some study.
2. German State TV has been running propaganda against India and esp Modi govt for long. Infact DW has produced anti Modi documentaries.
3. Germany tried to meddle into Indian affairs several times - be it during farm law agitation or via its utterances on Kashmir when their FM shared stage with Bhutto.
4. And lastly, Dhruv Rathi is in Germany and is spearheading a propaganda against Indian govt. Simply impossible to do all that circular jacking up of video views to push his narrative without some agency support.

Note how this comparison of video views theme/narrative to determine popularity of leaders and journalist began last year and is single most criteria today to push this compromised man. Surely he is working for German agency!
Note how Washington Bureau chief in India was caught promoting a YouTuber based in Germany

Although Sir VSN wrote his famous book describing India as a wounded civilisation in 1977, but this is what he said in his 1998 interview - listen to each and every word and extrapolate it to our present- what we see today is exactly what he had said here- we r no longer in our religious shell, we are accepting the outer world and even wants to lead it. I wish he had been alive to see it happen today!
He was always unapologetic about 6 Dec 92 - more so than many Indians of his era.
Renaissance doesn’t come when people pretend that past is going on, it comes when people accept that past is over and things have to be understood - in short confronting and accepting the past!

Had he been alive today, VSN would have been one of the first to acknowledge the Renaissance but on our terms!

Real news story is that even NYT- that came down heavily on Indian Govt post raids on @newsclickin -found Govt investigations by @dir_ed so compelling that they went after investigating the real Neville Singham and are now shamelessly claiming something, India found out in 2021! Image
Another aspect of NYT expose on Neville Singham is the shameless way in which foreign funded activists like @ravishndtv defended @newsclickin then - hear him making fun of investigations - after all he is the beneficiary of same network!
@ravishndtv @newsclickin See for your self how shamelessly @sardesairajdeep @ashutosh83B @paranjoygt and Manini Chatterjee came out defending @newsclickin after raids - many other stooges turned up then at Press club. https://t.co/PbcD2bWIty

North East, like majority of India, during pre 2014 was most developed region of Ind with peaceful coexistence & best infra in the country. Ppl from NE were celebrated as Indians throughout- all thanks to golden rule of Cong- Nehru, Indira, Rajiv & Sonia and then 2014 happened!
It is other matter that the great Nehru Ji was forced to promulgate The Armed Forces (Assam and Manipur) Special Powers Ordinance 1958 on 22 May 1958- later replaced by the Armed Forces (Assam and Manipur) Special Powers Act, 1958 on 11 September 1958 to contain Naga rebellion!
BTW Nehru ji was in such love with region, that the territorial scope of the act was extended to 7 states of NE- Assam,Manipur,Meghalaya,Nagaland, Tripura,Arunachal Pradesh & Mizoram & "The Armed Forces (Assam & Manipur) Special Powers Act, 1958" became AFSPA, 1958. ❤️ feeling!

First phase of Kanvad mela is over and as per some estimates almost 4 crores Hindus have already collected Ganga Jal from Haridwar & have left for their respective shivalayas from the time mela started.

Do check this thread for some of the amazing stories from this kanvad mela!

Hinduism is not thriving coz of Ranganathans, Kulshreshthas & Saideepaks; it is thriving coz of crores of Hindus who, pursue faith for the love of it!

Street domination is imp; hence I won’t mind few tonnes of plastic garbage as I know that change will come as well!
To see this is so touching - this Bhole bhakt is carrying his parents as well along with Kanvad…. Faith is his biggest support and strength - such a profound celebration of dharma!
