Audrey Truschke is back with a new book to teach India and Indians about its ancient history🧵
The propaganda to plagiarize and appropriate our truthful history is back with a timeliness dating to 5000 years. Image
Image
1. The platform

As usual Zia UsIslam from the Hindu arranged for a propaganda interview and The Hindu aptly published Audrey Truschke History propaganda interview!!
So smooth for an anti Hindu anti India newspaper. Image
2. The Aryan question
As usual Audrey Truschke deftly labelled the very origin of India's human population As "MIGRANTS" by saying that I side stepped word "Aryan" to avoid controversy!!
But her point- Nothing was indigenous to India including it's Vedic culture. Image

The reality of Indira Gandhi Sloganeer brigade 🧵

1. Legendary Sam Manekshaw, the hero of the 1971 war.

When he died in 2008, right from President Pratibha Patil, PM Manmohan Singh, Defence Minister, to the three Service Chiefs, none attended his funeral just because Sonia used to hate him.
1. Rana Banerjee, IAS, was number 2 in R&AW when 26/11 happened. He had timely submitted his report that Pakistan was planning such an attack. But it was sidelined by Manmohan Singh, then PM.
 
Post-26/11, he questioned the government of India regarding his report, which was sidelined by PM Manmohan Singh.
 
When RAW Chief Ashok Chaturvedi retired, it was his turn to takeover as RAW Chief, but then NSA M. K. Narayanan sidelined him and brought KC Verma from IB and made him RAW Chief. All this happened because Rana Banerji was questioning the government's incompetence.
 
At that time, in the intelligence ring, IAS Rana Banerji was known as a Pakistani Pandit because of his expertise on Pakistan.Image
2. How Hamid Ansari to I.K. Gujral to Manmohan Singh gave up the names and locations of R&AW assets in Iran and Pakistan!!
It's horrendous.
