Maharashtra is about to have a new CM on 5th of December (most probably Devendra Fadnavis).

However, Eknath Shinde’s future in Maharashtra politics is at a crossroads. Will he lead from outside the government like Balasaheb Thackeray, or will he remain in power by accepting a reduced role?

What options does he have?

Thread:

Option 1: Step Away from Power

Some suggest Shinde might stay out of the cabinet and control the party remotely. However, this carries risks:

1. Loss of direct influence over his leaders and party.
2. MLA's of Shinde Faction could get into touch with BJP directly.

Option 2: Accept a Lesser Role

Shinde could accept a smaller role, such as Deputy CM, and negotiate key portfolios for his faction. This might secure his party’s position while:

1. Maintaining some leverage over BJP.
2. Ensuring his party remains politically relevant.

Raj Thackeray's MNS might not have won a single seat in the recent election, but its impact was felt strongly across multiple constituencies. MNS's vote share played a crucial role in damaging Mahayuti's prospects in at least 10 constituencies.

Thread👇

In these 10 seats, Raj Thackeray's candidates divided the vote, causing Mahayuti (BJP + Shinde Sena) to lose out, and paving the way for Shiv Sena UBT's victories. Without MNS in the picture, Uddhav Thackeray’s faction could have been bundled out in these constituencies.

/1

Dindoshi Assembly was one of the constituencies where MNS's influence was palpable. Shiv Sena UBT's Sunil Prabhu emerged victorious with a narrow margin of just 6,058 votes. The key factor here? MNS candidate Bhaskar Parab who took 20,000+ votes, effectively splitting the Mahayuti vote. Without MNS, Sanjay Nirupam from Shinde Sena could’ve easily secured this seat.

In the last few days, there has been a surge of criticism against Bhagwan Krishna by Leftists and Jihadis, particularly targeting incidents like his childhood thefts and his relationships with the Gopis. But these criticisms often stem from a deep Hindu hatred.

Long Thread⬇️

First, it's important to recognize that Puranic literature is not history (as understood by Abrahamics). It's a symbolic narrative that communicates deep spiritual truths. The stories of Krishna are written in a mystic style, and have 3 meanings: Adhidaivik, Adhibhautik and Adhyatmik.

/1

When people accuse Krishna of theft in his childhood, they miss the symbolism. Krishna stealing butter represents him removing the "bad blood" or negative traits from the hearts of his devotees. It's not about material theft but spiritual cleansing

For months, we were puzzled by the decline in our views and engagement, while Congi handles like Dhruv Rathee and his likes were booming.

Today, we finally understood why!

Thread👇

OpenAI, the creators of ChatGPT, revealed a covert operation called "Zero Zeno," orchestrated by STOIC, an Israeli political campaign firm. This operation aimed to influence the ongoing Lok Sabha elections using AI.

The campaign generated comments, articles, and social media profiles that criticized the ruling BJP and praised the Congress. OpenAI, led by CEO Sam Altman, acted when he found out this deceptive use of AI.

Gopal Patha: The saviour of Hindus🔥

Here's a thread on his Jayanti

In 1946, the massacre of Hindus in Bengal was intricately planned under the name of Direct Action Day.

/1

Jinnah had chosen the 16th of August as Direction Action Day because it was the 18th day of Ramzan, the day when the Battle of Badr was fought and won – a war fought by Prophet Muhammad himself against the Kaffirs.

Mamata Banerjee continually proves to be a detriment to West Bengal and Bengali Hindus, as evidenced by the TMC's disgraceful actions and the erosion of democracy in the region. The recent revelations from Sandeshkhali have sparked outrage, drawing comparisons to the horrors of Noakhali for Hindu Bengali women.

Thread ⬇️

In an interview, women from Sandeshkhali shed light on the true nature of TMC and Sheikh Shahjahan. Despite the grave humanitarian crisis and mistreatment of women, Mamata Banerjee and her allies enforced Section 144 in North 24 Parganas to maintain their grip on power. This highlights the alarming depths to which Mamata Banerjee's administration has descended in West Bengal.

Union Minister Smriti Irani translated the Bengali testimonies of these terrified and abused women, shedding light on the profound horror experienced by married Hindu women in Sandeshkhali.
