Why don't these "pure vegetarian" folks order only from restaurants advertising as "pure veg"? And shouldn't they actually be eating only food cooked at home? How else can they be sure their food is "pure veg"?

Used to be the Security Press at Nashik that earlier printed Nepalese currency. Nepal has gone in for high tech security features (no nano chip unfortunately) and awarded a nearly $17 million contract to China.

Our criminal justice system will remain broken, till we keep viewing liberty as a low priority matter. Such statistics are shameful and while judicial appointments and court infrastructure is one part of the problem, the other more glaring is the sheer constitutional disregard

Pankthi Bedha in the Udupi temple is a similar practice.
In Uttarakhand, upper caste Hindus make lower caste Hindus sit separately at feasts.

The "meritorious" only defeated fellow Indians. They lost to or collaborated with foreigners and became their most obedient sons.
@sanjayuvacha It was also the meritorious who recaptured all of northern India within 10 years. If you had your way it wouldn't have happened in 100 years

My phone is ringing off the hook with constituents who want to leave the 54th District now that Mamdani has been elected Mayor of New York. It's been very difficult convincing them they don't live in New York.

😂 supporting Hindu supremacy back home. Supporting Islamophobia, casteism back home but wanting equal Rights in a Christian nation. The H in @HinduAmerican stands for hypocrisy.
When we asked @TexasGOP to condemn @AlexDuncanTX’s anti-Hindu remarks over a Hanuman statue, we expected a commitment to our Constitution and the Establishment Clause. Instead, the @TexasGOP chair offered this. It’s not a winning strategy; it’s wrong; and it’s un-American.

As I said the other day, he's an excellent performer. Trained well by his mom. He knows his audience, and is giving them what they want. But eventually, gradually, he will be found out. One cannot pull off a performance forever. It'll be interesting to watch when that happens.

Bookmarked for class: I will be using this as a case study of editorial misdirection as an intentional tool of avoiding journalism while enacting the theatre of it. Not the reporters' fault but that of editorial leadership in a newsroom. Another example a friend gave: when the

I grew up going to Kamla Nehru Park in Pune. I know she died in 1936. So I've always had this question. Even if he hooked up with Edwina, how did he have an "affair"? He had been a widower for a decade! Outside Sanghi minds, Nehru never had any such reputation ever! In fact...
@gauravsabnis A lot of sanghis spread so much vile stuff about Nehrus personal life about How he had affair with Edwina Mountabatten and this is what i think of
