जगदीप धनखड़ 🧵
पीछे से विपक्ष की पिच पर खेलने लगे थे धनखड़ साहब ?
केंद्र सरकार जस्टिस वर्मा के खिलाफ लोकसभा में महाभियोग लेकर आई.
केंद्र सरकार की योजना थी कि लोकसभा स्पीकर की अगुवाई में जस्टिस वर्मा को हटाने की प्रक्रिया होगी और ये कार्य केंद्र सरकार करेगी
1.
तभी राज्यसभा में वो हुआ, जिसने भाजपा, केंद्र सरकार को हिला दिया. VP धनखड़ साहब ने अचानक से राज्यसभा में जस्टिस वर्मा के ख़िलाफ़ विपक्ष द्वारा लाए गए महाभियोग के नोटिस को स्वीकार कर लिया. इस नोटिस पर 63 सांसदों के साइन थे और ये सभी सांसद विपक्ष के थे. धनखड़ साहब ने ये सब तब किया, जब राज्यसभा में नेता सदन जेपी नड्डा और वरिष्ठ मंत्री अनुपस्थित थे. सिर्फ क़ानून मंत्री अर्जुन राम मेघवाल और जी किशन रेड्डी थे
जैसे ही धनखड़ साहब ने विपक्ष का प्रस्ताव स्वीकार किया, मेघवाल और रेड्डी के चेहरे की हवाइयां उड़ गई. दरअसल VP साहब ने केंद्र को बताए बिना विपक्ष का प्रस्ताव स्वीकार कर लिया था.
2. केंद्र सरकार जहां जहां लोकसभा में प्रस्ताव लाकर जस्टिस वर्मा को हटाने की प्रक्रिया का नेतृत्व कर न्यायिक सुधार की बड़ी मिसाल पेश करने जा रही थी, तभी धनखड़ साहब ने राज्यसभा के माध्यम से इसमें विपक्ष की भी एंट्री करा दी. केंद्र के सूत्रों की मानें तो ये सब जस्टिस वर्मा को बचाने की योजना का हिस्सा था क्योंकि विपक्ष के कई नेता जस्टिस वर्मा को हटाने के विरोध में बोल चुके थे
Congress govt fools unemployed youths of Himachal after promising 500000 jobs in their election manifesto.
Govt Jobs in Himachal Just Got Rewritten? But At What Cost?
The Himachal Pradesh government has rolled out a new Job Trainee Policy for all Group A, B, and C posts in government departments, boards, and corporations.
Sounds like progress?
Think again.
1. The Tuglaqi farman of HP Congress govt. says that:
• Every new recruit will now serve as a ‘Job Trainee’ for 2 years — not a regular employee
• During this period, they’ll get only a fixed stipend (~60% of salary)
• No pension, no CCS leave rules, no insurance, no EPF/GPF, no LTC
• Health coverage under HimCare & Ayushman Bharat only
• After 2 years, they must clear another proficiency exam to even be considered for permanent employment
• Private agencies may be used for recruitment, raising concerns about transparency
2. Meanwhile, certain elite posts like HPAS officers, judges, professors, and constables are exempted from this policy.
Why the Outrage?
BJP leader Sudhir Sharma called this a “cruel joke on Himachali youth”, accusing the government of shattering dreams, outsourcing opportunities, and using trainees without guarantees.
Aspirants now face 2 years of uncertainty, lower pay, and no job security — all in the name of reform.
Gems of Sabeer Bhatia - The Engineer who never touched a machine🧵
Did you ever pondered over this riddle that why a supposed poster boy of dotcom era is vomiting all over the digital world?
Lets check out!!
1. The Noise
In the year 2006 Sabeer Bhatia met Haryana CM Bhupinder Singh Hooda and proposed a 11000 Acre Nano city with state of the art research centers and innovation hubs. Even real estate developer Parsvanatha was brought in.
Result - With zero development, in year 2011 HSIIDC Closed this project
2. The Experiment
In the year 2011 Sabeer Bhatia submits another proposal of a 4000 Acre Nano City to then Gujrat Chief minister Narendra Modi.
Result - No progress and project was closed.
The Warfare of Narrative 🧵
Did you know:
🎭How foreign-funded proxies peddle propaganda against India?
🎭How does the Media become the biggest source of propaganda?
🎭How in the name of Media Freedom and Fact checking, narratives are built to twist the social opinions for electoral gains to engineer regime change?
🪔 Let's find out the answer to all these questions in the next part of the series:
Regime Change in India
Part 21
1. The Smokescreen
In the previous parts of the series, we have seen in ample detail how Deep State proxies and fronts fund their proxies in India to engineer a narrative and make complete propaganda at scale with such narratives.
(x.com/IamTheStory__/…)
(x.com/IamTheStory__/…)
But the biggest question is, why would they spend millions of dollars just to spread disinformation?
Or is it misinformation??
Misinformation is false information that is spread, regardless of whether there is an intent to mislead.
Disinformation is misinformation that is knowingly (intentionally) spread.
So now we know that the context of information and intention both can be twisted to change information into misinformation and use that to create disinformation.
But what is the objective?
The objective is simple:
To control the polity by fracturing the landscape of politics of a geography or country.
2. The Riddle which was never solved
The biggest challenge for the Deep State in Asia is India and its present Nationalist Government. Led by Shri Narendra Modi. Two consecutive terms were somehow swallowed by political opponents and their deep state backers. But now the 3rd term for Modi was not at all tenable.
India's growing economic might and self-reliance, fueled by "MAKE IN INDIA" manufacturing, was hurting the global military industrial complex and its deep state backers. The desperation to unseat Modi did hit a crescendo during the COVID pandemic when India went on to save half of the world with its own COVID-19 vaccine.
Now it was about time to act and solve the Modi Riddle and checkmate India's economic might to open the floodgates of economic loot and scoot for foreign MNCs.
But what was the best way to solve the "India Riddle"?
It called for some massive funding and the creation of a disinformation network at an unprecedented scale.
Enter Google and the George Soros-funded Poynter Institute. Two of the biggest funders and backers of Left liberal propaganda proxies.
In the year 2020, when Google News initiative Startup lab was launched by Internews and The News minute in India it was beginning of something sinister and debased.
In the next parts, we will see how these two entities funded and engineered a massive media proxy network to spread disinformation and at a scale populace of India has never seen.
