It comprised of a curated compilation of handcrafted artefacts and products, which speak volumes about Bharat’s rich cultural traditions. Some of the products are the product of centuries of tradition & cherished across the world for their unparalleled workmanship and quality. These were meticulously created by the hands of Master Craftsmen. Some products are the result of the unique bio-diversity of our country.

The hamper had the following products:

Treasured Traditions: Sheeshamwood Sandook with Brass Patti

‘Sandook’ is the Hindi word for a treasure chest. Traditionally, it is a strong box made of solid old wood or metal, with a lid on top and embellishments all over. It holds a special place in Indian cultural and folk legends, besides being an epitome of exquisite workmanship.

This Sandook has been hand crafted using Sheesham (Indian Rosewood), which is valued for its strength, durability, distinctive grain patterns and rich color. The brass patti (strip) is delicately etched and embedded on to the wood, transforming the piece into a masterpiece of visual delight and tactile splendor. It is worthy of being treasure on its own, besides storing other treasures within.

Red Gold: The Saffron from Kashmir

Saffron (‘Zafran’ in Persian, ‘Kesar’ in Hindi) is the most exotic and expensive spice in the world. Across cultures and civilizations, saffron has been valued for its unparalleled culinary and medicinal value.
It is a treasure of nature, both rare and enticing. Each strand of it comprises of the stigma of ‘Saffron Crocus’. The stigma's crimson hue holds the concentrated essence of sun-soaked days and cool nights. Cultivating saffron is a very labor-intensive process. It requires the delicate hand-harvesting of thousands of flowers (each flower contains three crimson stigmas) to yield a mere ounce of the spice.

Kashmiri Saffron stands as a true embodiment of exclusivity and exceptional quality. Its intense aromatic profile, vibrant color and unmatched potency sets it apart. This is due to the crisp air, abundant sunlight and well-drained soil of Kashmir, which yields saffron with a higher concentration of essential oils.

Apart from being a luxurious and sought after culinary spice, Saffron is abundantly rich in antioxidants and provides many health benefits.

This man is Kiran Patel. He fooled J&K Govt claiming to be a senior officer of Prime Minister’s Office. J&K CID gave input to Srinagar Police. SP East Sgr raided Lalit Hotel to arrest him. He was given security cover on request of a Kashmir DC. Shocking.
Kashmir DC - Deputy Commissioner of a District in Kashmir.

Adani takeover of NDTV is a perfectly legal business move. There is no victim and perpetrator here. It’s no hostile takeover. NDTV was no charity organisation either. Owners made millions. Mostly elite babalog were hired. If you had no connections, you had no business at NDTV. For years NDTV was our only window to politics, news, international affairs. I was an avid watcher. Loved it. But soon a certain bias creeped in. Especially with their Kashmir and Gujarat reportage. Pro Islamist separatists. Pro-Congress. Their bias was very clever and subtle.

As India takes over the G20 Presidency, let’s be proud of what we’ve achieved in last decade and look ahead to dream big. Modi’s Deft foreign policy has led India to emerge globally as a key strategic player. Trade, Security & Global Prosperity. Short thread on some achievements. Winning over the Arab world with UAE and Saudi Arabia as the key strategic partners has been the biggest achievement for the Modi Government. A Welcome change. West Asia trusts New Delhi with economic partnership, forging new alliances. Beginning of even newer possibilities soon.

Yasin Malik was invited as a “Youth Icon” at India Today Conclave (2008). When I questioned Anand Mahindra, who presided the panel, for calling him “secular”“peaceful” he blocked me on twitter. Yasin Malik is a terrorist. Conclave video👇 #TheKashmirFiles I’ve immense respect for @anandmahindra. Even interviewed him in 2014 in Australia during PM @narendramodi visit for Times Now. As a professional, I didn’t bring the topic during our meeting. Just hope now that he knows facts, he does course correction on terrorist Yasin Malik.🙏

There was no twitter in 1990. The Kashmiri Hindu exodus went unheard, unseen. Today my heart breaks as I hear about the fresh exodus in 2021. Several Hindu families have left Srinagar and Anantnag in fear after recent brutal killings. Some packing their bags in tears. I am numb. A young J&K Police man from Kashmiri Pandit community deployed in Jammu right now tells me that his family members who stay in their ancestral home in Baramulla of North Kashmir are leaving tomorrow morning for Jammu. This boy wanted to be a singer, difficult life made him a cop.

It’s a sleepless night for Kashmiri Hindus staying in the valley. Bindroo family has been a prominent Kashmiri Pandit family who stayed on even during peak of terrorism. Killing of a 70 year old man who gave medicines all these decades to the ailing Kashmiris is just bizarre. I’ve been on phone with Hindu families in Kashmir. Some in constant fear, others in tears. Helpless. They’ve to think twice before attending funeral of Makhan Lal Bindroo who was killed by terrorists. Why can’t Govt provide safety to Kashmiri Hindus even after 32 years of exodus?

This shameless collector in Chattisgarh not only abused his power but also slapped an innocent boy out on the road during pandemic and slammed his phone on the road. Not only should he be dismissed from service but there should be FIR. @bhupeshbaghel

I feel bad for the family of this collector. Imagine if this is the level of violence on the road, what kind of domestic violence will he be capable of? I hope CM Chattisgarh, DGP Chattisgarh take note and act. Need to set a precedent. Also DoPT GOI as well. @DrJitendraSingh
