I wrote this to a #BJP supporter who wanted to know my political position. I am expanding and sharing it here.
1. BJP is as corrupt and inefficient as #Congress, but it gets a free pass because it is successfully advancing the cause of #Hindu #majoritarianism.

2. Examples are #Rammandir, #kashivishvanathtemple, #Article370, #TripleTalaq, #UCC, #CAANRC, #Cowslaughter bans, random #lynchings of Muslims, ban on #Azan in public, etc. A majority of Hindus in India support these, as they believe these will "put Muslims in their place."

3. In fact, #Corruption under the BJP is likely to be far worse than under Congress rule, because the media (which is now entirely under the control of Modi's corporate cronies like A&A) simply refuses to investigate any BJP corruption scams. Examples: #Vyapam, #Rafale...

We tend to forget some important markers from our past; otherwise, we should have set in stone these words spoken wisely by B.R. Ambedkar when he refused to draft Article 370.

In April 2022, a petitioner in J&K #Article370 abrogation case requested Chief Justice N V Ramana’s bench for a hearing.
His answer: “We’ll see”.
He said he would reconstitute 5-judge bench & hear case “after the vacation”, which ended on 10 July. There was no hearing

Instead of 5-6 days, it’s been 159 days since a special petition was filed against #Karnataka HC ruling upholding govt hijab ban in state educational institutions. “It just shows #SupremeCourt is reluctant to hear the matter:” Fauzia Shakil, case lawyer. 2/11
A few thoughts on the third anniversary of the revocation of #Article370 in Kashmir: militancy is at its lowest ebb. Every house, every shop in South Kashmir is on excel sheet of SFs. Every militant movement is tracked, every OGW is known. Who he meets, what he does is tracked
But isolated terror attacks cannot be prevented all time. For example, two days ago, SFs in Pulwama were tracking new OGWs who they thought might get active. One of them did last evening, causing one death of a labourer by hand-grenade attack
The Islamist deep state is cautious and a little nervous of being identified. There is nervousness about dismissal from jobs, about attaching of property, about NIA raids. However, the deep state is still intact and very little has been done to dismantle it
What has changed after abrogation of #Article370?

And we’ve been hearing various statements by @NCPspeaks President @PawarSpeaks ji on #TheKashmiriFiles & it’s not surprising at all.
In fact,they are totally in line with NCP’s decades old track record of appeasement policy & politics and polarising the society on communal basis.

1989 in Kashmir, Yasin Malik killed Justice Neelkanth Ganju, in 1989 he kidnapped Rubaiya Sayeed. He killed 4 Indian Airforce officers & 2 women in 1989 , he wounded 40 ppl in 1990 but considered Youth Icon under UPA government Video of his confession

The question is what were the intentions of India Today in projecting Yasin Malik as youth icon in youth conclave and justifying the genocide of pandits by Madam Barkha Dutt under the pretext of economic dominance of pandits in kashmir.

Post 2019 WIN the Arrogance of Power which was at its Peak for Ruling BJP as they Bull Dozed everything & anything which the Govt felt they are Right as instructed by RW Bosses. Meanwhile their Nominee & chela was given the Task to ensure BJP is made the Formidable Opposition.
An internal official note of @CPIMKerala under the heading 'minority communalism' says "efforts are on to lure educated young women into extremism in professional colleges in Kerala" In simple words "Islamist radicalization"! Has #Kerala govt finally woken up to an old reality?
For years #Kerala's professional college campuses have been hot-beds of #radicalisation! From Popular Front to off-shoots such as Campus Front & SDPI the narrative has been wonderfully woven around dalit-muslim upliftment which a sure attraction for the educated thinking student!
Students of dental, medical & engineering self financing colleges have been the target! Once a bridge is laid highlighting social issues the more virulent narratives are fed slowly ranging from claims of Islamophobia to alleged persecution of Muslims in India & abroad!

Ideologically speaking, till now West has looked upon India as a country with an imposed Western democracy, a democracy that requires oversight by the West, to make sure India lives up to the liberal democratic ideals as perceived by the West.
West doesn't see India with an own democratic culture as West sees democracy itself as a Western (Greek) invention.
In this regard, it was important that on Feb 8th, 2021, Modi gave this clarification in Indian Parliament.

The valley has been bearing the brunt of radicalisation that has the potential to destroy the future generation of #Kashmir. Its a ticking time bomb that needs to be addressed at the earliest.
The gradual erosion of #Sufism is an indicator of the growing radicalisation in #Kashmir. Sufism faces a stiff competition from the Wahhabi brand of Islam as preached in Saudi Arabia & other parts of the world.
Sufi shrines are being burnt and there has hardly been any public outcry regarding the same, indicating the waning influence of the Hanafis. With the abundance of Saudi money, Wahhabi followers are gradually taking over Hanafi masjids in the valley.
