The Barbarian's defining trait is his belief that he can enjoy the benefits of civilization without contributing to their maintenance. He consumes what has been painstakingly developed over generations but doesn't understand the effort & discipline required to create these goods. He finds discipline irrational and resents the presence of priests and soldiers, not comprehending their roles in maintaining civilization. The Barbarian is characterized by his inability to create; he can obscure and destroy, but he cannot sustain.

In his book My Experiences in Manipur and the Naga Hills, the Late Major-General Sir James Johnstone has written about the massive migration of Kukis into the sparsely-populated hill tracts of Manipur beginning from the year 1845 onwards.../1 The enormity of their migration can be gauged from the fact that during the period 1851-52, a huge chunk of 8000 Kukis had moved into the Zeme Naga-inhabited areas of the North Cachar hills of Assam.../2

Sherbir have been kind to put the text about India being a union of states. What he has missed is the context. Laws and statues are always qualified to be implemented in certain circumstances or context, leaving a room for using reason, rationale.
So here is the context../1

The federation is a Union,because it is indestructible. Though the country & people may be divided into different States for convenience of administration, the country is one integrated whole,its people a single people, living under a single imperium derived from a single source.

Supreme court is changing constitution without parliamentary approvals. Want to sit on appointment of statutory and constitutional bodies just like themselves.
I have no hopes of any pushback from @PMOIndia @narendramodi on this blatant stealing of parliamentary privilege. May be @narendramodi ji can invoke some courage reading this
“Within limits no judge and no Supreme Court can make itself a third chamber. No Supreme Court and no judiciary can stand in judgment over the sovereign will of Parliament".

--Pt Nehru (In Constituent Assembly)

This whole argument is a newly manufactured recently by Madani and gang.
a. Over 99% of muslims voted for Pakistan in 1946
b. They forfeited any right to live in India
c. Oldest book in the world is Rigveda as the whole world accepts that. It mentions no Adam or Muslims.

These crooks are scared about coming tsunami of muslim women leaving islam in droves. so will many educated rational, learned muslims who are ashamed of crazy needs of even reporting a rape-needs 4 witness to prove rape.. halala & what not..Think of daughter raped and her father

Which part of North India does this gentleman live in but our family came down from Jammu to fight alongside them against Abdali.
Nation needs protection , thus a standing army that needs to be paid. How do you pay for it now? Taxation.. Chauth was mere 25% while we pay 34% now.

Most of North Indian rulers had given up fighting mughals save for Mewar, were happy to enjoy life under protection. Obviously they felt bad for having to pay Chauth, in order to sustain an army, to Maratha empire as they had made peace with mughals..
Refuse a tax now? Try it.

I have two desires to be fulfilled by @narendramodi ji
a. Statues of all modern Pradhamntri (Starting from Peshwa Balaji Vishwanath) at Teen Murti bhavan. Post 1947 is merely a restart of executive PM under a adult franchise system.
b. Freeing temples & Hindu inst from control Given that Subhash Babu has been recognised as first PM of independent India by no less than current PM, former Pant Pradhan shd also be given due recognition to highlight our modern thoughts much before Europeans.
Chatrapati gave up executive power to a Prime minister wilfully.

Ungrateful nation? Really? What an uneducated kid and shameless veteran pushing this line of thought.
a. Per capita income in India is 185000
b. What is avg pension of a soldier retiring after 14 years? Over 400000 annually minimum with a 12th pass edu & pegged to inflation../1

https://twitter.com/KulbirCol/status/1623992018266632192

c. A retd col gets over 1800000/year as pension minimum.
d. This is 9X of per capita income
This shameless veteran calls the national ungrateful.
My father served, fought wars not for pension or canteen (never bought from one). He fought for nation as a 19 Yr old in 1962.

@ianuragthakur ji, I am no longer surprised at the blunders your ministry keeps making. Latest is calling Periyar a freedom fighter. One should read history that Periyar wanted British to continue..helped them in many ways. Don't fall so low

theweek.in/leisure/societ… So called Dravidaniasm, the ideology can be traced back to the works of Bishop Robert Caldwell, an evangelist and a linguist who aggressively popularized the idea of an Aryan invasion of India.. E.V. Ramasamy merely propagated it..

A S dulat is father of blunders of Cashmere,funding terrorists,turning a blind eye to their corruption,sleaze in the name of recruiting them.
H his the one who gave jobs to Sone son Geelani, Sahabuddin and many others. He should have bene in jail for misleading GOI, including ABV

@Sanjay_Dixit ji, Doval is 1000X better than this snake who wrote a book with Asad Durrani (former Pak Spy chief) propagating the idea that Pak terror is justified as retaliation to indian terror. Disappointed to see that ur platform gives him credence

For a long time, I was in the corner of ones drinking Kool-Aid of peace and brotherhood. Also believed in polemics of "this is not an era of war.." as articulated by Pm Modi. My views have changed travelling in past 20 years around the world (70 odd countries)../1 I do accept and understand the point Americans make through their constant use of hard power that it remains indispensable. Russians understand it too but they were on a pause- hiatus of 30 years post the traumatic experiences of losing self worth (USSR gone)../2

One chief Justice of high court gave a decision 1 day before retirement on a matter related to a cement company and made 100cr… On CJI (Supreme Court) allowed dual usage of shops and houses in Delhi, his son made 250crores with one judgment..

India has too many intellectuals, influencers, strategists and leaders but too less workers and people who work with hands.
Gyan with zero experience of doing things with hands with full confidence..zero understanding of technology or how it can be implemented yet full gyan Some people i know latched on to the fugazi of purpose led brands when it became buzzword. For someone like me, only data matters and it showed no change in growth or shareholder value addition or profitability. Worse it was and is impossible to differentiate pursue of 2 brands

What is happening in America should give a pause to policymakers across the world and specially in India @narendramodi ji.
a. Education inflation - College degrees have been marketed as Panacea for all evils and thus solution. Most jobs really don't require an expensive degree ...but merely common sense and ability to get along. This mad rush has increased fee (specially in so called Ivy leagues).
b. Mushrooming of useless subjects - So called social sciences are NO sciences as their theories don't replicate results in similar conditions.

Viewed in this perspective, Pandit Nehru was no more than a self alienated Hindu, and Nehruism is not much more than Hindu baiting born out of and sustained by a deep seated sense of inferiority vis a vis Islam, Christianity, and the modern West../1 centuries of muslim rule in medieval India had produced a whole class of such self alienated Hindus. They had interpreted the superiority of Muslim arms as symbolic of the superiority of Muslim culture.Over a period of time, they had come to think & behave like the conquerors../2

Subversion Through “Pluralism”

" They have propagated the untruth that the Indian civilization has always been pluaralist. This concept of pluralism, please understand, is a Western Christian colonial concept. Christianity also spread by the sword../1 Today,developed Western nations may hv succeeded in branding Islam a terrorist religion & the Western White Christian nations as defenders against terrorism but let us not forget that Christianity also spread by the sword. It was also intolerant. With the advent of “democracy,”/2

Narenda Singh Sarila - "Many of the roots of Islamic terrorism sweeping the world today lie buried in the partition of India". Wavell was the chief architect of partition and the ideal frontiers of a Muslim state were discussed in a letter to Linlithgow in 1940 by a British officer.
Redcliff was a mere pretender as the idea of a strong Sikh minority on north west of Pakistan was thought as ideal

Kind of wahiyat (Inane) arguments given by Indian mullhas on TV will put to shame even the Egyptians clerics who adjudicated 'anal jihad' as legitimate for those ISIS and other terrorists who were away from wives.. Islam has nothing to do with spiritual

breitbart.com/national-secur… The control of Mullah- masjid on a muslim's life is absolute. It was never about finding spiritual salvation or Moksha but it is apolitical ideology which seeds indoctrination through visible symbols of faith i.e., 5 Namaz, Topi, Black mark, Beard minus Moustache..

How did @SecYellen become fed boss with these loony ideas and pedestrian understanding of economics? Most of these positions doesn't seem to go on merit but connections and are political for sure

argusmedia.com/en/news/233896… Economists who keep on touting US being number 1 economy are actually telling half truth. Chinese economy is already bigger than US by 15-18% on PPP basis. India is number 3 with a $12.7-12.8tn economy (PPP).
Put together China at $24tn + $13tn (India) is bigger than EU economy

In every case, I hv followed in UP, I hv found that @Uppolice has done a stupendous job of following procedure along with Municipal corporations.
Every property that has been demolished or encroachment removed were under watch for long, notices issued months back by Municipality It means that these people were already under surveillance for sometime for their activities and there is good Humint network on ground and fantastic coordination across arms of state i.e., Law enforcement and civic bodies.

There must be more blasphemy, not less. Don’t cower down with rioting and stone pelting. Speak truth and calmly.
Man marrying his daughter in law by forcing his son to divorce her and the one living on 7th sky giving Ayat in support is next level Zaynab's forced divorce (after he saw her coming out of bath...) and then subsequent marriage to someone she considered as her father and mother ( being daughter in law) is a lesson greatness of the one merciful and kind..
