Treasure Island is an allegory to City of London. Read this excellent book when you have time. For those who do not have time. I will summarize. Image
This the dark heart of Britain, the place where democracy goes to die, immensely powerful, equally unaccountable. But British do not know how City of London works
Start perusing little bit about City of London from its website. I dare you. cityoflondon.gov.uk/about-us/law-h…
Here is what City of London claims about its rights. Image
Guardian blew the lid on this scam in 2012. It was quickly voted down by the search engines. The article describes the voting done by the subjects of City of London. Image
From the Guardian article. It is basically a frat boy club of white people. These clubs are called livery companies. Image
United Kingdom is silent about lack of democracy within the City of London. Image
This square mile is the largest tax dodger of the world. Roughly 50 percent of financial transactions of the world get stamped here. This is the area where British tax law is dodged.
Clement Atlee, former British prime minister (the one who pushed for India Independence Act) said this about City of London.
"over and over again we have seen that there is in this country another power than that which has its seat at Westminster."
"The City has exploited this remarkable position to establish itself as a kind of offshore state, a secrecy jurisdiction which controls the network of tax havens housed in the UK's crown dependencies and overseas territories."
"This autonomous state within our borders is in a position to launder the ill-gotten cash of oligarchs, kleptocrats, gangsters and drug barons. "
If you've ever dithered over the question of whether the UK needs a written constitution, dither no longer. Imagine the clauses required to preserve the status of the Corporation. "The City of London will remain outside the authority of parliament.
Domestic and foreign banks will be permitted to vote as if they were human beings, and their votes will outnumber those cast by real people. Its elected officials will be chosen from people deemed acceptable by a group of medieval guilds …".
Then British talk about Merit and how they introduced merit in India. What a bunch of fake people!
Guardian says about the Lord Mayor's Show. Image

As usual @theliverdr is all Dum Diversas and no real science. I am not able to direct him anymore because he has blocked me. So, this is education for the whole choir.

If you have already seen the movie, you already know the torture part. Let me tell you what was not shown on the movie screen.
#Chaava 🧵
February 1, 1689.
Shirke deliberately misled Sambhaji about Mughal movements and provided Muqarrab Khan with patrol schedules and guard positions. Mughal forces (estimated 10,000) surrounded Sangameshwar. Sambhaji had only 300 personal guards. And key escape routes had been blocked because Shirke had provided information!
February 1, 1689. Sambhaji and Kavi Kalash were captured after brief resistance. Shirke personally identified Sambhaji to Mughal forces. Most of the retinue were killed on the spot.

#Chaava back story What you see here is a Bhimthadi horse standing proudly with Indian Bhimthadi association's president Mr. Pawar.
This horse breed liberated Bharat from Islamic Invaders.
🧵 Image
The Bhimthadi horse, a breed indigenous to Maharashtra’s Bhima River basin, emerged as a linchpin of Maratha military strategy during the 17th and 18th centuries.

Developed through selective breeding of Arabian and Turkoman stallions with local ponies, this hardy equine became synonymous with the Maratha Confederacy’s guerrilla campaigns against Mughal and Deccan Sultanate forces.

Characterized by exceptional endurance, adaptability to sparse fodder, and calm temperament, the Bhimthadi enabled lightning-fast “shoot and scoot” tactics that exploited the Deccan Plateau’s rugged terrain.
Mughal and Sultanate armies, dependent on heavy cavalry, war elephants, and slow-moving artillery trains, struggled in the Deccan’s rocky highlands and narrow passes. Jean-Baptiste Tavernier, a 17th-century French gem merchant, noted that Mughal cannons took weeks to traverse routes Maratha horsemen crossed in days.

What you see is the certification of the work done for Hendrik Van Rheede. The certification is done by Apu Bhat, Vinayak Pandit and Ranaga Bhat.
In Konkani, it certifies that 12 volumes of the work which described all the plants, medicines, fruits, creepers and seeds was done by Apu Bhat, Vinayak Pandit and Ranga Bhat and their students who spent two years compiling everything.
