#Thread| Many videos have gone viral in the social media courtesy @RahulGandhi's latest interaction at the Chatham House.
Though these videos have different reasons for going viral. But one such video has been the buzz of social media!
1/n
In this viral video, Malini Mehra could be seen asking Rahul Gandhi - “I am feeling wretched about the condition of my country. My father was an #RSS man, proudly so; he would not now have recognise the country… How can we engage, re-empower our democracy?”
2/n
Malini Mehra is no ordinary Indian citizen, according to her biodata, she has been an advisor to many orgs of repute and NGOs across the world. Since 2017, she has worked as a Commissioner under London Mayor Sadiq Khan. She has been staying in London for the past many years. 3/n
Since Malini wanted to stay connected with India for a special purpose, she took to activism by engaging in environmental activities, akin to Greta Thunberg. Who doesn’t know Greta Thunberg?
4/n
To show her linkage with India, Malini found an org called The Centre For Social Markets (CSM).
According to the website of CSM, it is an independent non-profit org that works to create more environment-friendly, socially active and economically sustainable societies. 5/n
The most interesting part about this organisation is that it receives fundings from the European Union!
6/n
Malini Mehra’s NGO CSM has received crores from Fairtrade International, an organisation driven by European Union.
Fairtrade International is the same organisation that has been associated with George Soros’ Open Society Foundation.
7/n
According to Malini Mehra, “My father was in RSS, and he was proud of his country but he would not have recognised his country today”.
The truth is that her father is no longer alive.
8/n
In Malini Mehra Vs. State of NCT of Delhi case, it is clearly stated that her father Shri Madho Lal Mehra died on March 2nd 2011.
However, there is no concrete proof of his association with Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh.
9/n
The important point to note here is that Malini Mehra who is helping Rahul Gandhi to promote his agenda by putting her father to the fore, had never been on good terms with her father since 2003.
10/n
According to an article published in “The Guardian” in 2003, Malini Mehra had an estranged relationship with her father and had once said about him that “He has a history of misrepresentation. He is no position to lecture anybody about integrity or governance.”
11/n
Malini was also once quoted saying that her father stopped using his name publicly way back in 1989, after he went bankrupt in Britain. However, her father when alive denied all such allegations stating that he never went bankrupt.
12/n
It is quite strange that a daughter who separated from her father in 2003 itself, will now remember him after almost two decades?

AAP Convener and former Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal’s propaganda attempt falls flat. Here is what happened.
#Thread 🧵
Little after 8:30 am on Thursday, Kejriwal tweeted a link of ABP blog by one Hari Shankar Joshi titled: “AAP सरकार की योजनाओं से दिल्ली के हर व्यक्ति हो हुआ औसतन 30 लाख का फायदा और ये जुमला नहीं है।” It was an opinion piece. Except, within hours, the said article could not be accessed. 1/n
It threw error 404 that no records were found and ABP expressed regret that the page we were trying to access had no data. ABP had removed the said opinion piece without any information or acknowledgement. Netizens, too, pointed out how ABP removed the article almost as soon as Kejriwal posted it. 2/n
Interesting #Thread 🧵on alleged India Today journalist Rajdeep Sardesai (@sardesairajdeep) and his biased reporting on #MaharashtraElections2024, which he terms as “Bimaru state”
Rajdeep Sardesai once again jumps into the India Today debate with his propaganda over watering down infrastructural developments by Mahayuti in Maharashtra.
According to him, voters should “move away” from seeing Maharashtra through its “lengths and breadths” 1/n
But clearly, it's the “lengths and breadths” of Maharashtra which has made it one of the premier destinations of investment. Infrastructural developments like Atal Setu Bridge, Mumbai Coastal Road, Mumbai Metro Aqua line and Expressways in the state, which has reduced the traffic congestion and reduced time travel for common citizens.

Ex-RAW official Vikash Yadav has been declared ‘wanted’ by the United States’ FBI accusing him of being involved in the alleged assassination plot of Sikhs For Justice terrorist Gurpatwant Singh Pannun.
While the US has not provided any evidence to back the allegations, some Indian opposition leaders are pre-maturely passing the judgement as they raise questions about their own country and government!
A Thread 🧵👇
TMC MP Sagarika Ghose — continuing her agenda of questioning the Indian government against foreign forces — raises questions as to why the Indian government is not behaving like a country who follows rules-based order.
Without any info she directly raises aspersions of ex-RAW official being made a ‘fall guy’. Is this how an MP should behave?

TMC MP Saket Gokhale feels India has faced ‘international embarrassment’ due to this issue and demanded immediate resignations of NSA Ajit Doval and HM Amit Shah. 2/n
A few days back as Congress was releasing its manifesto for Haryana polls, one individual was conspicuous by her absence. Yes, we are talking of Haryana’s tallest Dalit leader Kumari Shelja. And if that was not enough, the Sirsa MP Shelja is still out of action from the electoral scene and the party think tank admits that her prolonged absence from the campaign was a cause of worry.
With Hooda father & son duo now calling the shots in Haryana Congress, Kumari Shelja has been feeling sidelined for quite some time. Her first outburst against state Congress leadership was revealed during the exit of Kiran Choudhry & her daughter Shruti Choudhry from Congress some time back. Shelja had then openly acknowledged that justice was not done to Shruti Choudhry. Shruti was a claimant to the Congress ticket for Bhiwani Mahendragarh Lok Sabha seat during recent general elections, which was denied to her at the behest of Bhupinder Singh Hooda, who gave the ticket to one of his loyalists instead. Kiran & Shruti, who come from Late CM Bansi Lal’s clan though later joined BJP.
Even Kumari Shelja’s supporters are irked with Congress leadership in the state. The recent incident where an individual at a meeting in Narnaund Assembly segment used the casteist slur on Kumari Shelja has infuriated her supporters. Though Bhupinder Hooda strongly condemned the remarks and Hansi police registered a case against the individual under sections of the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, the damage has already been done.
क्या आप जानते हैं, दिल्ली की नई मुख्यमंत्री Atishi Marlena के माता-पिता राष्ट्र-विरोधी छवि वाले हैं?
@AtishiAAP के माता-पिता ने आतंकी अफजल गुरु और याकूब मेमन के लिए दया याचिका पर हस्ताक्षर किए हैं और कई वर्षों तक इन आतंकियों की खुलेआम वकालत की है।
अफ़ज़ल गुरु के लिए दया याचिका
आतिशी मार्लेना की मां 'तृप्ता वाही' उस समिति की संयोजक थीं जो अफ़ज़ल गुरु को आरोपों से मुक्त कराना चाहती थी। उनके पिता विजय सिंह भी समिति के सदस्य थे। इस याचिका में अफ़ज़ल गुरु को दी गई सज़ा को रद्द करने की प्रार्थना की गई है।
याचिका में कहा गया है, "हम सत्र न्यायालय के इस फैसले पर कड़ी आपत्ति जताते हैं कि संसद हमले में आरोपी मो. अफजल को 20 अक्टूबर, 2006 को फांसी दी जानी है। फांसी न केवल न्याय का मजाक होगी, बल्कि देश की शांति, धर्मनिरपेक्षता और आतंकवाद की भयावह समस्या को सुलझाने की क्षमता पर इसके दूरगामी परिणाम होंगे।"
Congratulations Atishi Marlena, as you’re all set to become the new CM of Delhi – as a gift, The Pamphlet will be giving a background detail on your family.
@AtishiAAP's family — Tripta Wahi (mother) & Vijay Singh (Father) have grave anti-national credentials.

Mercy petition for Afzal Guru: Tripta Wahi was the convener of the committee that wanted Afzal Guru to be free of charges & Vijay Singh was a member too. Alongwith many liberals, they signed this mercy petition to President of India which seeked to set aside the punishment given to terrorist Afzal Guru.
In the attached video you can see Tripta Wahi giving a statement in favour of Afzal Guru.

Condemned the Judiciary after the Hanging of Afzal Guru: A year after the hanging of Afzal Guru, Tripta Wahi in a public meeting said that “Even the judiciary failed us on which we always believed. Every democratic institution failed us. After the attack, suddenly the Indian nationalism and Hindu Nationalism got together and made impossible for any human rights’ voices to be heard.”
