In Politics you don’t get multiple chances unless you are Rahul Gandhi… or Raj Thackeray.

Raj Thackeray’s political life till now is a case study for anyone interested in Politics.

When he separated from his Uncle, to form his own party, he drew one of the biggest crowd at Shivaji Park in Dadar.

Thread… He was seen as the obvious heir of Shiv Sena formed by Balasaheb Thackeray, but that position went to Uddhav Thackeray and thus leaving Raj with not much option.

Because even after UBT took charge, Raj stayed in Shiv Sena, but saw himself being sidelined.

The show was being managed by the Homemaker at Matoshree.

Today in his speech PM Modi made a point that 1,000 years ago, a small kingdom fell & we enslavement of this country began. Those who came looted us, ruled us.
So a 1,000 years ago what was India?

Dr Ambedkar in his book, Pakistan or Partition of India writes. (Page 35-36)

‘It is true that when Hsuan Tsang came (he was a Chinese Pilgrim who visited India in 7th century AD), not only the Punjab, but what is now Afghanistan was part of India & further, the people of Punjab & Afghanistan were either Vedic or Buddhist by religion. But what happened since Hsuan Tsang left India.”

Dr Ambedkar further writes, “The most important thing that has happened is the invasion of India by the Muslim hordes from the north-west. The first Muslim invasion of India was by the Arabs who were led by Mohd Bin Qasim. It took place in 711 AD & resulted in the conquest of Sind.” So what happened in Sindh?
Dr Ambedkar in his book on Page 37 writes,

“These Muslim invasions were not undertaken merely out of lust for loot or conquest. There was another object behind them. The expedition against Sindh by Mohd Bin Qasim was of a punitive character and was undertaken to punish Raja Dahir of Sindh who had refused to make restitution for the seizure of an Arab ship at Debul, one of the sea-port towns of Sindh. But there is no doubt that striking a blow at the idolatry and polytheism of Hindus and establishing Islam in India was also one of the aims of this expedition.”

“One should take up the least interesting or most difficult subjects when the mind is fresh” “Cheating will never make you successful in life”

“One should do hard work smartly and on the areas that are important”

“Most of the people are average and ordinary but when these ordinary people do extraordinary deeds, they achieve new heights”

So this happened today, I was at Phoenix Mall, & booked an @Olacabs bike. The moment I reached the first thing the rider Parvez Khan said he doesn’t ply online & wanted to take a cash ride, I refused. & clicked his picture to complaint, also shot a video. The moment I started shooting even the rider starred shooting. Visible here and I kept my camera on. All of a sudden this rider started going away, I also decided to move & kept shooting, the moment I put off the camera he attacked me.

This chap is an @Olacabs driver attacked me even beat me with his helmet @MumbaiPolice

Imp Points from @AmitShah ‘s address at Chintan Shivir, Surajkund, Haryana.

1.Areas affected by Left Wing Extremism, Jammu and Kashmir and the North East, which were once hot spots of violence and unrest, are now becoming hot spots of development. 2.Cyber- crime is a big challenge before the country and the world today, Ministry of Home Affairs is committed to battle against it

Dear @MumbaiPolice I have been brought by a Police to Kurla for telling a police constable of @MTPHereToHelp to do his duty, I was almost knocked by the auto too the police officer sat in an auto. Didn’t help and took offence that I told him to help people get Auto Through out the journey the police officer threatened me told me will eat my job, and even tried to raise hand on me @MumbaiPolice now am at Kurla station @MTPHereToHelp

8.54 am AC local of @Central_Railway started & halted at Kalyan station. We all requested the guard to open doors he refused, though the train waited for a long time, the guard didn’t. But the guard’s cabin was filled with people, he even allowed another fellow in his cabin 1/n If am not wrong to travel in the Guard’s coach immaterial whether you are a railway official, you need permission and it has to be written permission. I request @drmmumbaicr to initiate an inquiry & submit a report whether those travelling in the guard’s cabin had that pass 2/n

I assume there wud be some staff working in the @mybmcedu Dept of @mybmc which is the richest Municipal corporation in India, yet they let go an opportunity where BMC’s education model is being awarded & a pvt individual collects the award on their behalf. Why? @Dev_Fadnavis Here the question isn’t why @Francis_Joseph collected the award on behalf of @mybmcedu but the question is why none from @mybmc were present or didn’t accompany Francis while the award was being received? Was the BMC not informed about the award? @mieknathshinde

Saw many questioning Atalji’s contribution to this Country & city after I suggested that Coastal Road be named after him. These Ppl who have a problem with Atalji’s name had sealed their lips when MVA named an award after Rajiv Gandhi. Sea-link is also named after him right. We have a national park named after Sanjay Gandhi within Mumbai, what was his contribution for the Park?
Atalji is the father of Morden infrastructure of India. It is he who not only thought but implemented the idea of connecting the entire country with good roads.

Why ED knocked Sanjay Raut’s house on a Sunday?

As a journalist who has covered Mumbai’s real estate sector for close to two decades, whenever I hear Patra Chawl, otherwise known as Siddharth Nagar, the faces of hundreds of residents flash in front of me. Today I write again as Patra Chawl has become the major reason for ED knocking the doors of Sanjay Raut. In the last one decade or more, many residents of Patra Chawl located in Mumbai’s Goregaon area have contacted me, to write their ordeal and I did too.

On the night of Sunday (June 19), #EknathShinde started calling MLAs to Thane. He even called MLAs of smaller parties (not AIMIM) to side with him. His message on the call to MLAs was do you want to develop your constituency then come with me..#MaharashtraPolitcalCrisis One such MLA apparently informed Congress top leader in Maharashtra that he was getting calls from Shinde, Congress leader presumed it to the for MLC elections scheduled on Monday & ignored. #MaharashtraPolitcalCrisis

The escape of #ShivSena Min #GulabraoPatil from Mumbai to Guwahati is a script from Bollywood. Apparently Patil went unreachable first, then an entire troop of ShivSainiks started looking for him, they went to hotel where MLAs were staying, only to find him missing from there. The search party that kept on roaming on the streets of South Mumbai entire night was under a lot of pressure from senior leaders of the ShivSena to get Patil at any cost and make him speak to CM #UddhavThackeray the search party was now getting restless

For those not familiar with Maharashtra politics let me tell you a small thing about Eknath Shinde, while every fort collapsed or was shaken, Thane always remained intact for Shiv Sena, because Shinde handled Thane district with the same respect as dharmaveer Anand Dighe. Anand Dighe was the most towering leader of Shiv Sena after Balasaheb Thackeray, his death left a vaccum in Thane that many felt couldn’t be filled, but Shinde an ardent fan of Dighe, held the Shiv Sena strong, he even poached NCP leaders like Sarnaik in Thane

Some big names in Mumbai/Pune/Baramati are in trouble. This thread is about Income Tax Searches carried out in Maharashtra on 2 real estate groups, revealing unaccounted income of ₹184 crore.

Another fake victim case exposed. Do not believe all videos

A video of a boy in his teen & his aunt went viral on social media that there was an attempt of kidnapping on him by a taxi driver in Mumbai’s Parel area, while he had gone to distribute mutton from Eid celebrations.1/5 The boy in the video spoke that the taxi driver asked him his religion, then abused him and was trying to kidnap him, when he raised an alarm the taxi driver fled. In the video he even showed an image of a taxi with its number plates 2/5

Came across this video on @tiktok where the so called celebrities are clearly instigating & furthering hatred.

They say, “Maar toh diya Tum ne Tabrez ko, par Kal jab uski aulaad badla ke toh ye mat kehna Musalman atankwadi hai.”
@MumbaiPolice should act on this. The video is a message that says There will be revenge taken for Tabrez’s alleged lynching. Social media platform is being further used to spread hatred. The video has more then 414k likes on tiktok.

Mohd Atif, the @Olacabs driver, thought I am single piece man, he threatened me, said it is his area and he can do anything. He even said battery haddi tod dunga. I maintained my cool & decided to register a NC with @MumbaiPolice I was at a party in Bandra, Linking Road, booked an Ola cab, called the driver told him I had to go to Kalyan, he asked me to cancel, which I refused, he said he will cancel the ride, but he didn’t instead he arrived at the spot & refused me to board the cab.
