एक बहुत बड़ा वर्ग आपको मिलेगा जो बेहिचक ये कहेगा कि बाबा रामदेव के सभी उत्पाद घटिया क्वालिटी के हैं और पतंजलि के नाम पर बाबा धंधा कर रहे हैं।

ऐसे लोग हैं, शायद आप पढ़ रहे हैं, आप भी हो सकते हैं?

ऐसे सभी माननीयों से हाथ जोड़ कर कुछ प्रश्न पूछना चाहता हूं।
और आज ही ये प्रश्न क्यों, वो अंतिम पंक्ति में लिखा है।

१. बिना गूगल किए हिंदुस्तान यूनिलीवर के मालिक का नाम बताइए?

२. मालिक छोड़िए, कहां की कंपनी है ये बताइए?

३. एबॉट, जिसके हेल्थ पाउडर धड़ल्ले से अपनी औलादों को पिला रहे हैं, उसके मालिक का नाम बताइए?
४. पेप्सी, कोक कहां की कंपनियां हैं बताइए? मालिक के नाम बताइए?

५. कैडबरी के मालिक का नाम?

६. कोलगेट के मालिक का नाम?

नहीं पता ना? या जानने की कोशिश ही नहीं की?

केवल चमकीले विज्ञापन पर यूं ही भरोसा कर लिया?

ये सभी कंपनियां क्या परोस रही हैं, सोचा भी नहीं कभी?

32% of the 78 million tons of plastic packaging produced annually is left to flow in our oceans.

What can change this? It's simply saying 'No' to plastic and using sustainable substitute to plastic.

పరాయి దేశానికి చెందిన హ్యూలెట్ పాకర్డ్ (hp) కంపెనీ తన ప్రింటింగ్ మెషిన్ యాడ్ ను ఎంతో సభ్యత సంస్కారాలతో తయారుచేసింది.

భారతీయ సంస్కృతి సంప్రదాయాలను గౌరవిస్తూ, దీపావళి పండుగకు దేశీయ ఉత్పత్తులు కొనమంటూ ఈ యాడ్ నడుస్తుంది.
@ivak99

తన ఉత్పత్తిని ప్రమోట్ చేసుకోవడానికే ఈ యాడ్ తయారుచేసుకున్నా, Go Local అంటూ పిలుపునిచ్చింది. ఇంకా ఈ యాడ్ లో ....

Kindly note that out of the given names in the tweet, only “Bardhaman Sitabhog” has got Geographical Indication #GITag.
Langcha, Chandrapuli & Narkel Naru are yet to get GI.

Wrongly mentioned that Bengal has got GI for Sitabhog.
Actually, GI product name is- Bardhaman Sitabhog
#Sitabhog is a part of Mahaprasad of Shree Jagannatha Temple Puri Odisha @JagannathaDhaam @SJTA_Puri

Similarly, Rasagola is offered as bhog on #NiladriBije #RathYatra

Still, reports wrongly mention that Bengal has GI tag for Sitabhog & Rosogolla.

#GiTag
Actually, Bengal has #GITag for-
“Bardhaman Sitabhog”
&
“Banglar Rasogolla” among others.

Using Sitabhog & Rosogolla etc is wrong.

The correct names & spellings must be used while sharing information.

ప్రాణం లేని బొమ్మలంటే పిల్లలకు భలే ఇష్టం. వాటిని చిన్నారులు అన్నీ తామై చూసుకుంటారు. స్నానం చేయిస్తారు, అన్నం తినిపిస్తారు, నిద్ర పుచ్చుతారు.బొమ్మలు పిల్లకి అపరిమితమైన ఆనందాన్ని, ఉత్సాహాన్ని అందిస్తాయి. అంతేకాక వారి మనస్సులలో చెరగని ముద్ర వేస్తాయి.
బొమ్మలతో పిల్లలు నిక్షిప్తం చేసుకునే జ్ఞా పకాలు వారికిజీవితమంతా ప్రేరణగా నిలుస్తాయి. భారత్ స్థానిక బొమ్మలకు ఎంతో ప్రసిద్ధిగాంచింది. కానీ భారతీయ మార్కెట్లోకి వచ్చిన విదేశీ బొమ్మలు ఈ పేరును చెదరగొట్టాయి. ప్రపంచంలో భారత్ అతిపెద్ద బొమ్మల వినియోగదారిగా ఉన్నప్పటికీ,
అంతర్జాతీయ బొమ్మల మార్కెట్లో మన దేశ వాటా మాత్రం కేవలం 0.5 శాతానికే పరిమితమైంది. ఇలాంటి ఈ సమయంలో, కేంద్ర ప్రభుత్వం బొమ్మల పరిశ్రమకు మళ్లీ
జీవం పోసేందుకు పలు రకాల చర్యలు చేపడుతోంది.

Research published at the Mayo Clinic; If children under the age of two are given antibiotics, they are more likely to develop skin diseases, obesity, ADHD, digestive tract disorders, asthma. The more often antibiotics are given, the more serious the effects can be. +
The term 'Milk and Cookie Disease' is also common among pediatricians now. The western culture of having biscuits or cookies along with milk has been found to have a serious ill effects on the health of children. +

Has Pesticide use come down as claimed by @MahycoGrow & #Monsato?
NO, says #DrKeshavKranti with data. The pesticide use for #PinkBollWorm came down first & then increased, with pest resistance. But use of pesticide on sucking pests drastically increased. #BtCottonEvaluation
Has cost of production come down after #BtCotton was introduced?
NO, says #DrKeshavKranti. He shows with data that cost of production even doubled, and so now we know why debts increased and farmers suicide in the cotton belt. #BtCottonEvaluation #BtCottonBitterReality
The British tried their best to get Indian farmers to use #AmericanCotton. We resisted. In 1947 Desi seeds were 97% in use. It became 1% in 2019, thanks to wrong scientists, govts, making farmers victims. Now, its #VocalforLocal. Can we move to #DesiCotton #BtCottonEvaluation
