Last year, Supreme Court passed an order saying-
THERE IS NO BLANKET BAN. #firecrackers.

Even after that,
Delhi govt has put blanket ban on #firecracker while Punjab Govt has allowed only 2 hours on #Deepawali.

If you face any issues,
I’ll defend you legally: free of cost.

@iPratyush_

The part of the order of Supreme Court where it has been made clear:
THERE IS NO BLANKET BAN

So any ban above this is illegal.

@iPratyush_ & I will defend you if there is any legal/police action, free of cost.

No one can stop you to celebrate #Deepavali & #ChhathPuja2022

Those who couldn’t stop #stubbleburning are attacking our festivals in the name of pollution.

We’ll fight against them.

If they can’t stop #Parali,
they have no right to #BanFirecracker

+

Due to this unnecessary activism, lakhs of people will go jobless.

Over 1.5 Lakh in Tamil Nadu alone.

+

Let me remind you,
#firecrackers are not even in top 10 reasons for pollution.

Here is an IIT Delhi report of this year where they’ve researched on 2019 air quality which clearly says poor air quality in Delhi is not due to #firecracker

So this attack is on Hindu.

+

@ArvindKejriwal

Delhi Govt of @ArvindKejriwal has actually spend over ₹7 Lakhs to curb #stubbleburning but have spent around ₹7.5 Crores on advertisements.

To fight against this unjust and celebrate #Deepavali2022, write to me and @iPratyush_.

We’ll surely help.

@SushantBSinha

Those who say that #firecracker has nothing to do with #Deepavali
Two things-
1. Who asked you to speak on #Deepawali without reading our scriptures?
2. #Firecracker is mentioned in our itihas. Do go through this show of @SushantBSinha at @TNNavbharat

On 8th May 2025, Govt of India issued a clear directive:
No media content from Pakistan - be it on OTT, streaming platforms or intermediaries- shall be allowed in India.
Platforms were advised to take down such content immediately.

Yet, @spotifyindia continues to host it.

1/16

It’s not just about hosting Pakistani songs.

@Spotify has tracks that are not only from Pakistan but contain objectionable, anti-India content.
This is a direct violation of India’s sovereignty and the spirit of the notification issued by @MIB_India.

2/16

When India is literally fight war against terrorism & its sponsor- Pakistan,
@Spotify is openly promoting artists from the enemy nation, some of whom have clear anti-India leanings.

Over 2 Lakh students in schools run by MCD doesn’t have Books to read.

Delhi High Court shocked to see Delhi govt being ignorant about students not going to school or having textbooks.

“You are putting children as a trading point, they are not a trading commodity for us."

1/9

Minister Saurabh Bharadwaj through govt lawyer submitted:

- Standing Committee of MCD in not there.

- Delegating more powers to an appropriate authority would require the consent of the Chief Minister.

- Chief Minister @ArvindKejriwal is presently in custody.

2/9

Delhi High Court:
Because there is a vaccum does not mean students can be allowed to study without textbooks.

Delhi High Court further said:
@Saurabh_MLAgk had turned a blind eye to the plight of students and is shedding crocodile tears.

Tagging @NCPCR_ & @EduMinOfIndia

Why #HaldwaniIsBurning ?

The methodology is common.

Often referred to as street power,
now #Haldwani is facing the wrath of following the law.

1951: Congress under Nehru boycotted Somnath Mandir.

2024: Congress under Nehru family boycotted #AyodhyaRamMandir.

#AntiHinduCongress

1/5

First President of 🇮🇳 Dr Rajendra Prasad was invited for the inauguration of #SomnathMandir.

Jawahar Lal Nehru as Prime Minister of 🇮🇳 asked him not to go to Gujarat in strong words.

#AntiHinduCongress was against the idea of Hindu revival.

2/5

To, Dr Rajendra Prasad-
“I confess- I don’t like idea of your association with a spectacular opening of the #SomnathMandir. This is not merely visiting a temple, which can certainly be done by u but participating in significant function which unfortunately has implications.”

There are few who claims-
- BJP has nothing to do with #RamMandirAyodhya
- Mandir has come after Supreme Court judgment.

My take:
Those people don’t know how court functions.

REALITY:

Issue came to Supreme Court.

CJI led 5-Judge constitutional bench was formed for it.

1/5

Congress’ @KapilSibal wanted Supreme Court to adjourn the matter of #RamMandirAyodhya to a later dated and not hear it.

But govt of @narendramodi took a firm stand in SC that hearing must commence & be completed as per provisions.

Also assured against any mishap in 🇮🇳

2/5

As per Article 348(1) of Indian Constitution, language of Supreme Court is English.

1.5+ Lakhs docs needed for hearing of #RamMandirCase.

They were in languages including Sanskrit, Hindi, Awadhi, Pali & certain foreign languages.

Translating them to English required time.

ABES Engineering college in Ghaziabad was conducting their Cultural Fest.

A student was about to perform.

He greeted the audience with "Jai Shri Ram".

Mamata Gautam, a teacher from @ABESEC032 Engineering college expelled the student & kicked him from stage.

1/5

Another Hinduphobic teacher Shweta Sharma got in stage and criticised student for greeting each-other with “Jai Shri Ram”.

Remember that this is happening during the Navratri Festival.

2/5

After huge criticism, Hinduphobic teacher came on camera.

But rather than apologising, she defended herself while threatening to take legal action against anyone questioning her.
