বর্তমান সংবাদপত্রে প্রকাশিত এই ক্লিপিংটা আজ দেখছি খুব শেয়ার হচ্ছে। তৃণমূলীরা উল্লসিত এবং সাধারণ জনতা বিভ্রান্ত। 'গেরুয়া ফতোয়া', 'সংসদে নিষিদ্ধ জয় হিন্দ, বন্দে মাতরম' -- পড়লেই যে কোনও বাঙালির মাথা গরম হয়ে যাবে। বিজেপি যে বাংলা আর বাঙালি বিরোধী, সেটা তর্কাতীত ভাবে প্রমাণ

Rani Lakshmibai was born in Varanasi on this day in 1828 🙏. Seen here is the cover of a 1940s booklet on a play about her written by P. N. Oak. Today mostly derided for his Tejo Mahalaya theory, Oak was a freedom fighter. He served at the headquarters of the INA in Singapore.
