Javed Akhtar's family including his father & father-in-law Kaifi Azmi were Pakistan supporters.
Azmi wrote poems in support of creation of Pakistan.

After partition, they stayed back to safeguard properties.

Azmi wrote poems warning of an uprising when somnath temple was built If Javed Akhtar is criticising a bankrupt and broken Pakistan today, that is merely because he is flogging a dead horse and has nothing to lose.

He is the same person who compares RSS to Taliban, opposes CAA and hypes Jamia criminals as sheroes.

Savitribai was indeed a British Missionary. Nobody's declaration is needed.

She was trained by missionaries & her school was organized & funded by Missionaries.

This question was asked in KBC 13.

How does a Noball Prize fact checker miss basic facts?

opoyi.com/india/kbc-13-w… Here is Savitribai Phule in her own words. In this letter, she proudly boasts that her husband was honored by the British Government for doing the work of Jesus

Hotee was a Bengali Hindu widow.

She was a scholar of Sanskrit Poetry, Law, Mathematics and Ayurveda.

She established a School in Varanasi for women. She was awarded the title "Vidyalankar" by Kashi Pandits.

This was BEFORE Savitribai was even born.

First female teacher who? https://t.co/Q2DnxZ1V0N
Image Hotee Vidyalankar died 21 years BEFORE Savitribai Phule was even born.

Why is she ignored and why is Savitribai Phule falsely acknowledged as "first female teacher"? Is it because Hotee was just an orthodox Hindu Brahmin lady and NOT an agent of British missionaries?

How cute!

Your father was a member of Muslim league. Why did he stay back even after several members of your family left? What was the intention of staying back after contributing to partition and breaking up of the country? Since the topic is Naseeruddin shah's ancestors, we should begin with his great great grandfather Jan Fishan Khan. He was originally from Afghanistan.

He served as a mercenary for British against Marathas and was granted a piece of land for his services.

New Year and Christianity:

It is often claimed that New Year is a Christian festival. And that the current Gregorian New Year on January 1 was first instituted by Pope Gregory in 16th century. Is that really so?

Thread According to Bible, New Year does NOT occur in the winter month of January.

It rather occurs in Spring in the month of Nisan (March-April).

This was precisely when the Early Christians celebrated new year.

So how did the New Year "change"? Read on Image

"Gandhi was a cheat & fraud.

Congress & Gandhi are coolies of Aryans. They must be fully uprooted.

Gandhi's pictures must be burnt and all of his statues must be broken"- Periyar EV Ramasamy on Gandhi

Today, Congress garlands Periyar statues but arrests Kalicharan Maharaj. "Gandhi is a poisonous snake that needs to be destroyed"- EMS Namboodiripad.

Until he was alive, leftists & Islamists reserved vilest abuses for Gandhi.

They turned Gandhi followers overnight when he was assassinated. Why?

Because Gandhi is now a useful stick to beat Hindus

The real Santa:

Christians claim Santa Claus of Christmas myths is none other than a historical Christian Saint named Nicholas.

This thread gives us a glimpse of the real man behind Santa Claus. It shows us how his character was drastically recreated by American commercials. Today, Santa is everywhere. He is on Stickers.Cakes. You name it.

He is shown as a warm, happy character with rosy cheeks twinkling eyes and laughter lines who sends gifts to Children.

This is a modern creation. Here is how real Santa Claus was depicted in historical paintings Image

Audrey @AudreyTruschke is back.

Her latest target: Shivaji Maharaj & his caste.

Audrey calls Shivaji Maharaj a Shudra. She says Shivaji bribed a Brahmin Gagabhatta to "become" Kshatriya. Gagabhatta invented a fake lineage going back to Sisodiya Rajputs.

Is this true?

Thread ImageImage First of all, this malicious thread intentionally rakes up sensitive issues. Maratha community resents attempts to portray Shivaji Maharaj as Shudra, which goes against their self identification.

This is colonial era myth which also portrays Brahmins/Hinduism in a bad light. (2)

During the days of freedom movement, many Hindus opposed the appeasement politics of Gandhi.

However, they were asked to shut up in the name of "Hindu unity" and "National unity".

More vocal critics were dismissed by Congress propaganda machinery as "British Trojan Horses". While Gandhi was building a secular image for himself through appeasement politics, the lower rung of Congress leaders tried to project Gandhi as a Kattar Hindu.

Congress propaganda machinery issued paintings depicting Gandhi as the incarnation of Shiva rescuing Bharat Mata. Image

According to Sufi chronicles, it was Sufi Moinuddin Chishti of Ajmer who invited Ghori to invade India.

According to Sufi Chronicles, it was Chishti who behεaded the great Prithviraj Chauhan

The day Bollywood musters courage to show his role, these movies will have some worth According to Sufi literature written by his own followers, Chishti arrived in India & set up his camp at Ajmer near the sacred Pushkar lake. He saw Hindu temples there and promised to raze them to ground. His followers slaughtered a cow everyday & cooked Kebab in temple premises Image

This is completely WRONG.

The events you are describing in your tweet are a complete fiction. They never happened.

Forget about a fight between Christians and Druids. The Christians and Druids NEVER came into contact with each others.

The Druids were long gone by that time. t.co/fFkb16JfN6 The Christians and Druids NEVER came into contact with each other*.

Just look at the video you have posted. Yes, it describes the last stand of the druids. But NOT against Christianity.

It describes the last stand of Druids against Pagan Roman empire.

Dipavali & firecrackers

In this thread, I will debunk the MYTH that bursting firecrackers is a new innovation that was recently introduced into dīpāvali festivities.

It will be shown that bursting firecrackers has always been intergral and central part of dīpāvali .

[Thread] At the very core of this entire MYTH is the presumption that Gunpowder (cf. fireworks) was invented in China in 9th century and brought to India by Muslim rulers.

This THREAD debunks this widespread MYTH and throws light on the unknown/hidden history of dīpāvali & gunpowder.

A pernicious attempt to connect Hinduism with Nazism.

Audrey (@audreyTruschke) claims Indic philosophy inspired Nazism & Nazism inspired Hindu revivalism.

She comes from a long line of protestant Indologists making such connections

But is it really so?

[Myth breaking THREAD] Image @AudreyTruschke Audrey insists Nazi "Hakenkreuz" is nothing but "German translation" of Swastika.

She even goes on to say the Nazi translation did not erase "the basic meaning and history" of swastika.

Is this really so?

This thread EXPOSES closely guarded academic secrets about this topic ImageImage

Mir Sayyid Ali Hamadani was greatest Sufi Saint of Kashmir.

He imposed 20 mandatory commandments on Hindus of Kashmir. A Hindu could be could be kiIIed and his property confiscated if he violated any of these conditions.

This law was strictly implemented for almost 500 years Image This Sufi Shah Hamadan's mosque was constructed after the destruction of Kali temple at the site.

Even to this day, a Sindoor mark of the old temple and an old spring dedicated to the Goddess can be seen on the foundations of the mosque. ImageImage

Hello Dumbo,

That is NOT false & misleading. Bhakta Namadeva was indeed a devotee of Vitthala. Nobody denies it. STOP putting words in my mouth. But yes, it is indeed true that Namadeva used "Allah" in his Abhangas as one of the names of Hari. Only an ignoramus will deny this! Here is Namadeva's Abhanga as recorded in Page 727 of Adigranth

Here, Namadeva uses "Karim", "Rahim" & "Allah" to describe Vishnu.

Anybody with a basic reading of Namadeva's Abhangas know this. Ignorance is one thing. Accusing others on your ignorance is malice @SanskarBarot Image

He is an "eminent" historian. He quotes another "eminent" historian from AMU.

In a single article, they make several BLUNDERS. They cannot even get their basic dates right. Their claims are factually incorrect and FAKE.

This thread is a FACT CHECK of their claims

[Thread] The heading of @Rezavi 's article says

"Historical records show it was Marathas who came up with the name of Aligarh. Their governor Najaf Ali Khan renamed it as Aligarh"

This is the central claim of the article. And it is a FAKE claim

Najaf Ali khan was NOT Maratha commander

Did you know?

The Bamiyan Buddhas are famous throughout the world.

Did you know that the Bamiyan Buddhas had a gold covering until 9th century? They were adorned with precious gems.

Did you know that the Bamiyan Buddhas were built by a HINDU king?

[Thread] Image Who built Bamiyan Buddha?

There lies a painting of the king who sponsored the construction of Bamiyan Buddhas inside Bamiyan caves.

The name of the king who built Bamiyan Buddhas was Narendraditya Khingila(6th-7th century CE).

He was the same king who worshiped Gardez Ganesha Image

Nehru was officially classified as "Class A Prisoner".

He had newspapers, books, servants & coolies. He was allowed to walk out & meet others.

He was also allowed Switzerland trips "while technically imprisoned".

Savarkar was locked up in Kalapani & beaten up for 10 years It was only once in his life that Nehru was treated just like any ordinary prisoner.

This was in Nabha Jail for 12 days.

Within 12 days, Nehru's father begged British viceroy.

He wrote an apology & assured that his son Nehru will never enter Nabha.

12 Days v/s 10 Years!

That is not me. TI account was created in 2016 out of an existing account. Previously It had a different @, different profile pic & a different owner.

From 2016, I debunked leftist propaganda against RSS almost on a weekly basis with facts & references on lots of topics Unlike you, I wasn't paid IT cell member & did it out of my own volition without a penny in return

Over the years, I debunked 100s of leftist lies against RSS. I debunked the lie that Golwalkar asked RSS not to fight British. Debunked the lie that Vajpayee was a British spy

Happy Rakshabandhan to all my readers.

Here is how the festival was originally celebrated:

On Śrāvana Pūrnima, Upākarma ritual is performed wherein Hindus change Yajñopavita.

This is followed by visit of the people of the entire village/ settlement to house of Brāhmaṇs(1) Image Then, Brāhmaṇ tied a thread called rakṣikā to wrist of people.

This thread is an oath of protection. Sons tied it to their fathers. Sisters to their brothers. Students to teacher. Brahmans to Kshatriyas, Vaishyas & Shudras. Wife to husband.

Everyone tied rakṣikā to king Image
