Centre Introduces Bills To Revamp Colonial-Era Criminal Laws, TNM’s Dhanya Cries ‘Hindi Imposition’ Like DMK Stooge

Union Home Minister Amit Shah presented 3 bills in the lower House of Parliament, the Lok Sabha, to revamp colonial-era criminal laws. He mentioned that the Indian Penal Code, CrPC, and the Indian Evidence Act will be repealed completely and replaced by:  

  1. The Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 
  2. The Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023
  3. The Bharatiya Sakshya Bill, 2023

Like a typical DMK stooge, Dhanya Rajendran of The News Minute tweeted, “Why? And Hindi imposition.”

Netizens called out Dhanya’s hypocrisy and asked her why she did not raise her voice when English words were used for the same.

This is not the first time that Dhanya Rajendran and her outlet have peddled the DMK’s propaganda. Let’s see a few examples:

Crying foul For PIB Fact Checking Power vs Strong Silence For Social Media Monitoring Cell In TN

In April 2023, the Indian government extended additional powers to the Press Information Bureau (PIB), allowing them to validate information and demand the removal of content perceived as “fake, false, or misleading” regarding the Central government from social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and Google. However, Dhanya Rajendran cried foul about this development. On The News Minute’s YouTube channel “No Filter With Dhanya Rajendran,” in a monologue, she said “The Indian government has a problem with any journalist or media organisation that reports critically on the government. After many covert and overt attempts to muzzle the media, the government is ready with its latest attempt.”

However, the same Dhanya Rajendran’s lips were sealed shut when the ruling DMK government announced a budget allocation for Social media monitoring. 

Buttressing Udhayanidhi Stalin

An article in the portal titled, Udhayanidhi becomes Cabinet Minister: What Stalin’s son has been doing so far” provides an in-depth account of his ventures in the entertainment and political spheres, culminating in his appointment as a Minister in his father’s administration. However, the article notably overlooks his controversial history.

The article endeavours to depict Udhayanidhi Stalin’s promotion to the position of Minister in his father’s cabinet as something resulting from his personal achievements and qualifications. 

It exalts the cringeworthy incident of Udhayanidhi Stalin’s ‘AIIMS brick’ campaign ahead of the 2021 Tamil Nadu Assembly elections saying that the campaign “cemented Udhayanidhi Stalin’s win and his political career.”

It even makes a subtle attempt to place him on a pedestal akin to that of the late AIADMK founder-leader MG Ramachandran saying “While Udhayanidhi starred in romantic comedies where he played the carefree, boy next door, he began to take on more serious roles that revolved around social justice like Manithan, Nenjukku Needhi, and Kalaga Thalaivan.” while completely ignoring the fact that in various interviews he mentioned he had not an inkling ever to join politics, leave alone becoming a minister. He has stated this multiple times – more details here.

Biased Reporting On Goback Hashtags

The DMK and its IT cell, along with social media influencers, trend the hashtag #GoBackModi during Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visits to Tamil Nadu. Mainstream Tamil news channels provide ample coverage, while the News Minute adds to the narrative. They published over 10 articles and at least 4 exclusive articles on the trending hashtag on Twitter. After MK Stalin became Chief Minister, the hashtag #GoBackStalin gained resistance. In November 2021, when CM Stalin visited Coimbatore, the hashtag trended at the national level to protest against the trend initiated during Modi’s visit. The News Minute claimed that Pakistan did not promote “Go Back Modi” hashtags when it was revealed that they were promoted by bots. The article did not mention the #GoBackStalin controversy, which occurred in October 2020 when MK Stalin allegedly insulted Pasumpon Muthuramalinga Thevar by dusting off Vibudhi prasad at Thevar Temple.

Anti-Sterlite Propaganda

TNM published an article and video by Nityanand Jayaraman, responding to the Let’s Make Engineering Simple’s (LMES) video on the pollution crisis. In the article, Jayaraman defended his targeting of Vedanta, stating that people choose battles based on their interests. During the second wave of the pandemic, the Tamil Nadu government allowed Sterlite to produce oxygen from its Thoothukudi plant, and in the article, Jayaraman urged the DMK government to shut down the plant, focusing on the ‘bigger picture’. 

Other Pro-DMK Propaganda

In November 2021, when Chennai experienced heavy rains resulting in flooding across various regions, TNM decided to “back” the DMK government by publishing an extensive article that discussed how ‘broken radars and conflicting weather reports‘ contributed to the floods in Chennai. However, the actual situation was that neighborhoods such as T. Nagar, West Mambalam, Kodambakkam, K.K. Nagar, Saidapet, and other areas were submerged due to the reckless disposal of debris and trash into drainage canals by Corporation contractors, as well as the delayed completion of desilting work.

We can go on and on with our examples. The News Minute has a very visible ideological and political bias, but it becomes problematic when it pretends to be neutral. Their silence on certain matters signals their Dravidia-Nazi leanings very evidently.

Unveiling The Complex Nexus: The Intersection Of Islamist-Left-Liberal-Woke Ideological Collaboration – Part 2

Continued from Part 1

The Islamist-Left-Liberal-Woke ideological collaboration deep at work in the developed, democratic, liberal, secular nations of the West and secular nations of the East like India, operates under the disguise of perceived victimhood, religious rights, human rights, equality, labour rights, feminism Etc.

Islamists joining the bandwagon of Left-Liberal causes, ensure the Muslim world’s clever strategy of equating Islam to the victimhood narrative and unfairly takes away the world’s attention from the real victims of deprivation, discrimination, suffering, and neglect.

This dangerous network has taken away the credibility of local, grass-roots organisations that sincerely try to address genuine issues without an ulterior motive or a religious/political agenda. Beware!

For a few years now, independent thinkers and think tanks in the U.S. and U.K. have been warning of the effects of the Islamist-Left-Woke-Liberal collaboration on the psyche of the average American citizen and public institutions run under government patronage. What they warned about most in recent times, is a heavy infusion of a fabricated, falsely implicated Islamic victimhood narrative cleverly played into the other “humanitarian” issues frequently raised by the ultra-Left – gender equality, racial issues, labour rights, freedom of speech, freedom of religion, environmental issues, etc.

In the distant past, the Leftist lobby had championed such common issues that appealed to most Western and Eastern people living in democracies. What is worrisome now, is the influence of the disguised, subtle but firm, and strong undertones of an Islamist agenda in the Left’s causes of interest. For example, in the U.S., U.K., Canada. Islamic organisations claiming injustice and victimhood disguise themselves as alternative human-rights organisations and join the same causes as the Left-Liberal-Feminist-Woke lobby.

Over a period of time, strong Muslim voices slowly take over the Left-Woke leadership roles in the Leftist organisations, and before the general public realises, the reputable organisations they had trusted in the past, are infiltrated by several Muslims in important positions peddling a Muslim victimhood/Muslim rights agenda along with the common themes of generic human rights, racial justice, equality, environmental rights, employment rights, etc.

In the process of growing membership and positions of leadership within the world’s Leftist organisations, the Muslims are helped by generous financial contributions by Muslim organisations in the host country funded by Islamic nations like Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Pakistan.

So, how does this ultimately come back to haunt a nation like India? Islamists in foreign nations hiding in the rank and file of Leftist, socialist, secularists “democratic” organisations, begin to unnecessarily bring focus on issues like Kashmir, the CAA, and Minority rights in India when in reality, such issues have nothing to do with the common man’s problems in the U.S., U.K., or Canada!!

Equating the racial rights of the Black people in America’s shameful history of slavery with India’s caste, class, and religious rights in modern-day India, is a clever, convoluted argument of trying to equate racial rights in the ex-Slave colonies like the U.S. to religious and class rights in modern-day, post-independent India. It is NOT an equal comparison yet the Left-Liberal-Woke-Islamist network has successfully spun a bizarre story linking the two, non-similar, non-convergent stories set in two very different parts of the globe.

The current mental makeup and ideology of the Democratic Party in the U.S. is similar to that of India’s Congress Party. India has always been offered better deals in an open transactional environment when the Republican Party has been in power. Democratic leaders like Bill Clinton, Barack Obama, and Joe Biden pay mere lip service to the ideals of democracy, they are good with their sweet-talking, friendly smiles, diplomatic gestures, and speeches but continue with their soft diplomacy, financial and military support to fascist and/or military ruled non-democratic nations and terror-sponsoring nations like Pakistan. It is the U.S.’s Republican leaders like Ronald Reagan, George Bush, and Donald Trump that talk openly and frankly, drive hard bargains and strike tough yet fair deals and enable big business and military partnerships for India!

Similarly, in the U.K., the Labour Party’s agenda is ultra Leftist, pro-Islamist, and anti-India. The conservative Tory party is tougher on the Islamist narrative and while the Tories may not outrightly support India’s needs, they’re better at getting mutually beneficial business deals signed and handling sensitive matters with more care.

Left-leaning parties in most parts of the world have been taken over by a deadly, rabid mix of human rights with Islamic rights by supporting the false Muslim victimhood narrative which is ridiculous and an open lie, considering the aggression of Islam towards all other religions and the undeniable continuance of major human-rights, religious rights, women’s rights, children’s rights and labour rights abuse in Islamic countries. It is logical (in most cases, proven) to assume that Left-leaning governments and Leftist organisations enjoy ample financial support from Islamist groups and States and hence take a soft approach to the dangers of Islamic expansionist views. Such nations and organisations are likely to support an anti-India agenda.

Muslim appeasement (to a lesser degree, Christian appeasement) and extension of special privileges to one community against the principles of equal treatment for all, enshrined in the Constitution of democratic, practicing secular countries like the U.S, India, U.K, Canada, and others, has become a major worry for the Centre and Right-Of-Centre.

TN Waqf Board Allegedly Attempts To Seize Arunthathiyar Community Land In Erode, Hindu Munnani Condemns Dravida Model Govt

Residents of Anganakaundan Puthur, a village located in the Komarapalayam Panchayat of Sathyamangalam Circle in Erode District, are facing a distressing situation as the Waqf Board asserts ownership over the land that was allotted to them by the government more than four decades ago. The land, which had been provided to the Arunthathiyar community (Scheduled Caste), is now subject to a conflict between the community and the Waqf Board.

In the year 1980, the Tamil Nadu government allocated replacement land, amounting to three-and-a-half acres, to 73 families of the Arunthathiyar community in Anganakaundan Puthur, after they were affected by flooding. The Adi Dravidar Welfare Department had granted each family 3 cents of land to build homes. These families have been living on this land for 40 years, establishing a thriving community known as Periyar Nagar.

However, their sense of security and ownership has been shattered by recent developments. The Waqf Board, an institution responsible for managing properties donated for religious or charitable purposes under Islamic law, is now claiming ownership of the land in question. As a result, the affected residents are encountering numerous challenges, including obstacles in transferring land titles, registering deeds, and availing loans for housing construction.

Pandian, a resident of the village, explained the plight of the community members. “We were given this land by the Adi Dravidar Welfare Department after we were displaced by floods. We have lived here for 40 years, built our homes, and even named our settlement.”

He added, “In this situation, a few days ago, when one of the residents passed away and his son attempted to transfer the land’s title to his name, authorities instructed him to obtain the deed from the registration department. Upon visiting the Sathyamangalam registration office, they informed him that the land on which his house stood was under the ownership of the Waqf Board. They further advised him to secure a clearance certificate from the Waqf Board to proceed with the title change.”

“Now, due to the Waqf Board’s claim, our basic rights are being denied. We cannot sell our houses, get loans, or even continue the construction of houses under government schemes,” he said.

These affected individuals, who are part of the Arunthathiyar community, sustain themselves through daily wage labor and participation in the Central government’s MNREGA program. The revelation that the Waqf board is asserting ownership over the land they have inhabited for over four decades has left them shocked and in deep distress.

In light of this situation, the local populace has submitted petitions to various government officials, including those from the Revenue Department and Gobi RTO. Despite actively pursuing a resolution for more than six months, no concrete steps have been taken by the Tamil Nadu government or the registration department to address the matter. The affected people find themselves stranded, uncertain about the appropriate authorities to approach next in order to seek redress for their grievances.

The Hindu Tamil quoted a revenue department official who acknowledged the issue, stating, “The problem with the Waqf Board’s claim of ownership is widespread in the district. The Registration Department is working in accordance with the directives of the Waqf Board. Efforts are being made to compile accurate information about Waqf Board-owned lands in Erode District to resolve this issue in stages.”

In this situation, the Hindu Munnani has strongly criticized the DMK government’s role in facilitating the Waqf Board’s appropriation of land owned by the Arunthathiyar community. In a recent tweet, the Hindu Munnani expressed, “There are indications that the Waqf Board intends to take control of the land that was rightfully allocated by the government to the residents near Sathyamangalam and potentially settle members of the Muslim community there. Does the Dravidian model government endorse these actions of the Waqf Board? We will not remain passive observers if the Waqf Board, enjoying the backing of the DMK government, endeavors to encroach upon Hindu lands, temples, and state-owned properties. The government should take measures to restore the lands seized by the Waqf Board.”

Union Fin Min Nirmala Sitharaman Tears Into DMK MP Kanimozhi, DMK MPs And Allies Run Away

The no-confidence motion against the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party-led NDA is being debated in Parliament. In connection with this, Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) MP Kanimozhi raised a few questions to Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman. However, just as Finance Minister was about to start her response, most of the DMK MPs and other allies left the Parliament. 

Kanimozhi put forth the question, “You have installed the Sengol in the new parliament with great fanfare but do you really know the history of Tamil Nadu? Have you heard of the Pandiyan Sengol and also do you know the history of Kannagi? Please read the Silappadigaram, don’t impose Hindi.”

On The Question Of Sengol

Finance Minister read out the questions and pointed out the fact that the Sengol particularly, as given to our first Prime Minister was also given by Aadenams who are a unique institution for Tamil Nadu. She said that the same party had no objection when the sacred Sengol has been treated as a walking stick for PM Nehru. She reminded the House that it was kept in a private house/museum and it was used as a Chhaddi (walking stick) and not Sengol. 

She asked pointedly, “Doesn’t hurt that the Tamil pride? Is that not an insult to the Tamils? So when PM Modi restored it (Sengol) to its rightful place in Lok Sabha, that became an issue, that is an insult to the Tamils. The Sengol was ignored for decades. The Sengol was lost in history and kept in some museum. The Kashi Tamil Sangamam showed how Tamil Nadu and Kashi have very deep connections. The first time you heard Tamil being quoted in the United Nations. In ‘Mann ki Baat’, PM has used Tamil so many times”.

On The Question Of Jallikattu

She also spoke about how Congress had termed Jallikattu, a sport intrinsic to Tamil culture, a “barbaric sport”. She said, “It was during the UPA government when DMK was a partner in that government that Jallikattu which is a typical reflective of Tamil culture was called a barbaric sport and was banned by that very same UPA in which DMK was a member. Is it barbaric? It took PM Modi to permit the sport in 2016 and Jallikattu was played in TN.”

Hindi Imposition

DMK MP Kanimozhi also asked the government to stop imposing Hindi on Tamilians and asked them to read the Silappadikaram since it would give valuable lessons to everyone. 

Nirmala Sitharaman, in response, emphasized that in Tamil Nadu, a mandate against learning Hindi and Sanskrit was enforced in the guise of resisting Hindi imposition, and it constituted an ideological imposition. She said that the government might have the power to promote Tamil, but it did not have the power to prevent people from learning Hindi or Sanskrit. Despite this, she said they prevented the Tamilians from studying Hindi or Sanskrit due to their hubris. She said, “I am recounting my lived experience”. She added that, “It is the same Tamil Nadu that stops every individual from learning Hindi or Sanskrit and today in the name of language they are telling us to read Silappadikaram.” 

Nirmala Sitharaman quoted Ma Po Si (Mylai Ponnusami Sivagnanam) who is considered an authority in Silappadikaram and was given the title Silambuchelvar, wrote in Tamil Murasu magazine about Silappadikkaram. Nirmala Sitharaman said our Prime Minister is already implementing Silappadikaram principles through Ek Bharat Sreshta Bharat. She quoted, Silappadikaram tells us, “We are not Dravidians, we are Tamilians. Our motherland is not Dravidam but Tamizhagam. Our northern border is Vengadam, not Vindhya, and beyond Vengadam if people’s cultural habits and practices are in one form, they may be slightly different but not opposite to us. he talks about India’s oneness.” She said, although Kanimozhi may not be speaking separatist language, separatism influences the kind of language with which Kanimozhi tells the Prime Minister to read the Silappadikaram. 

On The Question Of Draupadi

Nirmala Sitharaman pointed out that Kanimozhi made reference to Draupadi from the Mahabharata, highlighting her humiliation and disrobing. While acknowledging it, Sitharaman said, it is about women, the act of disrobing, demeaning, and disgracing women. She said everyone must regard this matter with utmost seriousness and that she was confident that Kanimozhi too holds this concern, and didn’t intend to undermine it. She concurred that her concern was valid and that when it comes to the suffering of women, regardless of the context, we must address it earnestly without resorting to playing politics. However, she said, she wanted to remind Kanimozhi and the entire assembly of a particular incident.

“I agree that women suffering anywhere – Manipur, Delhi, Rajasthan – will have to be taken seriously. No politics played. But I want to remind this entire House of one incident which happened on 25th March 1989 in Tamil Nadu Assembly. a sacred sabha. then she hadn’t become CM, she was the leader of the Opposition, the first woman. Jayalalithaa’s saree was pulled in Tamil Nadu in the Assembly. She was the Leader of the Opposition. The DMK members who were seated there heckled her and laughed at her, made of her. You’re talking of Kaurava sabha, of Draupadi? Has DMK forgotten Jayalalithaa? You pulled her saree, you demeaned her. That day Jayalalithaa took an oath that she will never come to the House unless she becomes the CM. Two years later, she returned as the CM of Tamil Nadu…” Sitharaman said it was unbelievable that a party that was in power at that time, where a leader of the Opposition had her saree pulled and demeaned, was talking about Draupadi when all the members were mute spectators of the injustice happening to J Jayalalithaa.

Puthiya Thalaimurai’s English Outlet ‘The Federal’ Publishes Hindumisic Cartoon Over RaGa’s Flying Kiss Row

As the alleged flying kiss of reinstated Congress MP, Rahul Gandhi made the news on 9 August 2023, several articles and cartoons were published – some condemning the incident and some justifying it. 

One such cartoon that caught The Commune’s attention was the one published by the English outlet of Puthiya Thalaimurai – The Federal. The handle had shared a caricature with the backdrop of the “flying kiss” depicting two Hindus referring to the “Kama Sutra” book and coming to the conclusion that since it was absent in this particular text, it must be a repulsive Western concept. The cartoon was created by one “artist” named Nala Ponnappa. 

The Federal is a division of New Generation Media Corporation Private Limited, launched by TR Parivendhar (TR Pachamuthu) the leader of Indhiya Jananayaga Katchi. Pachamuthu aligned with the BJP in the 2014 general elections and lost. In the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, he contested and won in the Perumbalur constituency aligning with the DMK. In 2021, he aligned with Kamal Hassan’s Makkal Needhi Maiam for the Tamil Nadu Assembly polls. The Hindumisic cartoon comes even as his son Ravi Pachamuthu is expected to contest the Lok Sabha elections as part of the National Democratic Alliance (NDA).

This is not the first time that Puthiya Thalaimurai, which portrays itself as a neutral media has revealed its Leftist and Dravidian Stockist colours. 

Earlier, Karthigaichelvan, who was formerly the Editor-in-Chief of the Tamil mainstream news channel had peddled hatred against Prime Minister Narendra Modi several times.

Back in 2015, he had shared a disparaging cartoon implying that the Union Government under Narendra Modi is being controlled by the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS). This tweet has now been deleted by Karthigaichelvan.

Once he was called out by Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman for deliberately trying to peddle anti-Modi propaganda saying that the Centre was waiving off loans taken by corporates.

 

Puthiya Thalaimurai, the Tamil television news channel was also called out for its bias and was found to focus extensively on the debates surrounding the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) for medical colleges. 

In June 2018, Puthiya Thalaimurai was one of the television channels that provided a platform to individuals who incite violence among young people with their inflammatory statements, which frequently contain misleading information. 

A case was filed following a chaotic altercation that erupted during a panel discussion hosted by the channel in Coimbatore. The discussion revolved around the topic of whether the protests within the state were driven by political motivations or stemmed from the pursuit of people’s rights. The skirmish broke out when Ameer Sultan (director) allegedly mentioned the killing of Hindu Munnani leader Sasikumar in Coimbatore in 2016. This reference was seemingly unrelated to the subject being discussed at the talk show hosted by the Puthiya Thalaimurai channel, which sparked a strong reaction and outcry from the attendees.

Unveiling The Complex Nexus: The Intersection Of Islamist-Left-Liberal-Woke Ideological Collaboration – Part 1

The social, political, and economic ‘Centre’ and ‘Right of Centre’ segment of the world’s population is slowly waking up to the reality of a new, unholy, dangerous nexus among the ultra-Left, Liberal, Woke, and the ultra Islamist groups, in furthering a sinister agenda in most developed nations and a few developing countries like India.

Their ideological and political targets are the liberal, secular, and humanitarian-based developed nations in the West and those nations in the developing East, that are striving to emulate the West in their democratic, secular, liberal, human (rather than religion-centric) ideals. The Left-Liberal-Woke-Islamist network does not dare to operate in totalitarian, communist nations like Russia and China and Islamic nations and devoutly Christian nations. Their target is liberal, humanist, progressive “secular” nations.

They are too cowardly to try preaching supposedly “humanitarian” values to religious-extremist, non-secular nations or Islamic countries. This motley group targets those nations and citizens that are liberal enough to naively allow them to access their debate rooms, government offices, courtrooms, educational institutions, and their people’s minds.

In India, there has always been a tacit understanding (aiming to influence the public) among the “communist” Left, the Liberal Left, the urban and rural Naxalite Left, the Pseudo-secular Left, the peculiar Hindu-apologist Left, and the Islamists. In countries like the U.S and the U.K, the well-intentioned albeit unsuspecting public is bombarded with propaganda that tries to bring a loosely put-together concoction of class, gender, race, and religion (mostly Islam) together in the name of an “injustice” to all who fall in any of the four above-mentioned “victim” groups, which make it a sizeable, cohesive group to deal with.

The Right and Centre of Right are justified in worrying about this disturbing trend. Islamists market and promote themselves as victims of injustice in the world although they are the aggressors and perpetrators of inequality and injustice in most parts of the world!! By grabbing and effectively using the false “victimhood” narrative for itself, Islam has ensured that the real victims (non-Muslims, women, children, local cultures, indigenous tribes, etc.) are denied the real victimhood label and denied the assurance of necessary protection from Islam’s aggressive political and expansionist ambitions.

Any which way you look at it, both in the East and the West, the religion that has falsely grabbed and cornered the “victimhood” denominator and stands to gain the most from tying itself to all the “other” real vulnerable/ potential victimhood groups, carefully teaming up with them and cleverly aligning with them on strategic issues (immigration, special rights, free services, additional government aid, propagation and promotion of a particular religion etc.) …. is Islam!

Typically, liberal, democratic, and secular societies are far more tolerant of diverse faiths, life choices, opinions, and new ideas. Naturally, such nations become the target of the extremist, ultra Left-Woke-Islamist movements. They spin an elaborate story of victimhood and oppression so cleverly that by the time they are done weaving together a tapestry of several narratives and interwoven plots, most liberal, broad-minded people are tricked into believing this sinister group’s version of right and wrong without judging the veracity of their claims, fact-checking or listening to any alternative views.

The targets and victims of the Islamist-Left-Liberal-Woke propaganda, often become guilt-tripped for not belonging to either of the four sub-groups of this unholy nexus. The average, educated, broad-minded, humanist citizen in the targeted democratic, secular, liberal nations, stops questioning the highly exaggerated victimhood narratives or downright lies that have been falsely peddled to them. Therein lies the danger of a large, liberal, gullible “educated” population, blindsided by a clever enemy preying on their naivety, their goodwill, their humanity, their willingness to listen and accept different opinions.

After being brain-washed into thinking that all religions and political/ social views are “equal”, the broad-minded, educated, well-meaning populations of many democratic nations, lose their ability to fact-check, their ability to question, their ability to think independently, ultimately disabling them from seeing through the thick fog of misinformation, exaggeration and lies. By the end of a slow but steady brain-washing process highlighted frequently with tales of exaggerated suffering, victimhood, hardship, torture, etc….the average educated, liberal mind develops a sense of misplaced guilt and becomes apologetic for who he/she is, for absolutely no fault of theirs. The average educated, liberal, warm, and welcoming mind is made to feel guilty about having had a normal life and the opportunity to experience success with their own hard work!

The Islamist-Left-Liberal-Woke ideological collaboration/network and its operations, slow-poisoning young minds, has far-reaching consequences for Western secular democracies as well as the liberal, democratic, secular countries in the East – countries like India, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Vietnam, Philippines. The most impacted are the democratic, non-dictatorship, non-totalitarian, non-Islamic States.

The Left-Woke-Islamist networks that operate in countries like the U.S. and U.K. influence public opinion in their respective countries, impact independent thinking in educational institutions and government think tanks and ultimately impact
policy-making and their government’s official stand on certain global matters. Hence, the West’s stand (official or not) and unsolicited interference on matters like Kashmir and India’s other security problems, which are solely India’s internal issues to be handled at its own discretion, within its rights as an independent, sovereign nation.

Young Pregnant Woman Dies After Cesarean Operation At Virudhachalam Government Hospital Due To Alleged Medical Negligence

The Virudhachalam government hospital is once again under scrutiny following a tragic incident that claimed the life of a young pregnant woman. Kalpana, daughter of Radhika and a resident of Mangalam Pettai Ambedkar Nagar, tragically passed away after a cesarean operation, igniting renewed concerns about the subpar state of health infrastructure in government hospitals across Tamil Nadu.

Kalpana was admitted to the Virudhachalam government hospital for her delivery. It was reported that she was taken into the operation theatre for a cesarean operation at 9 AM on 7 August 2023. Two and a half hours later, the medical staff informed her parents that she had successfully given birth to a baby boy. However, Kalpana’s parents were denied access to their daughter.

As the newborn cried out for sustenance, Radhika wanted to give the child to the mother to be fed. Shockingly, hospital nurses prevented her from seeing her daughter. Overwhelmed by concern, Radhika ventured into the ICU section without permission, only to discover that Kalpana was not present. After repeated complaints, nurses eventually brought Kalpana back on a stretcher. However, Radhika found her daughter’s body to be unnaturally cold and unresponsive.

Efforts to revive Kalpana were in vain and it was only after an arduous struggle by Radhika and her family that doctors arrived at the scene. It was then confirmed that Kalpana had already passed away.

The incident sparked outrage among Kalpana’s relatives who gathered at the hospital to protest against the alleged negligence of the medical staff. The grieving family accused the doctors of mishandling the operation. In this situation, Virudhachalam police have taken the body for post-mortem.

This tragedy also brings to the forefront other instances of alleged negligence during the current dispensation in Tamil Nadu.

In November 2022, Priya R, a 17-year-old football player who underwent surgery to treat a ligament tear in her knee, died on the morning of 15 November 2022, as a result of multiple organ failures caused by medical negligence. It was reported that the blood flow to her right leg, where the surgery was performed, was obstructed because of the tightly bound band by doctors after the ligament surgery. The doctors at Rajiv Gandhi Hospital advised that the leg be amputated because all of the muscles in the leg were rotting. However, Priya died tragically at the Rajiv Gandhi Government Hospital in Chennai, after her health deteriorated due to multiple organ failure. 2 doctors from the orthopedics department were suspended for medical negligence.

A few days back, a video of a child using a paper cup as an oxygen mask in a government hospital in Uthiramerur in Tamil Nadu went viral, leading to questions being raised about the availability of medical equipment in the rural side of the state. The impact of the video was such that the state Health Minister had to respond, who said that the video “looks to be shot with a purpose”.

In another such incident reported a few days ago, a one-and-a-half-year-old boy who had his hand amputated at Chennai Government Hospital died Chennai Hand amputated child died in Egmore Hospital. Parents alleged negligence by the doctors who claimed that the baby was prematurely born.

Alleged Fact-Checker Zubair Tries To Buttress RaGa’s Alleged Flying Kiss Gesture In Parliament

Just as news of the alleged flying kiss gesture in Parliament by Wayanad MP Rahul Gandhi came in, the alleged fact checker was quick to buttress the whole incident.

Little did he know that the video he shared had the actual gesture captured on camera, thus proving his own tweet incorrect.

He tweeted, “This is the video of Rahul Gandhi just before Smriti Irani spoke. Is there any other video of him allegedly blowing “Flying Kiss” to Smriti Irani as claimed by Shobha Karandlaje? Also in her, speech Smriti Irani said, Rahul Gandhi blew a ‘flying kiss’ to a Parliament which has female members. Not ‘Flying Kiss to Smriti Irani’ as tweeted by Payal Mehta. Interesting, Even Smriti Irani spoke about ‘Flying kiss’ at 13:22 after it was tweeted by Payal Mehta at 13:10.”

Netizens were quick to point out the alleged flying kiss in his own video.

https://twitter.com/SmokingLiberals/status/1689200362484609024

Zubair also alleges that the “kiss” was not directed at Smt. Irani.

In this report, you can read the various Congress leaders and other alliance members who are acknowledging that the alleged flying kiss was blown by Rahul Gandhi as he finished his speech.

He tries to compare two statements given by Union Minister Shobha Karandale. In an interview with ANI she said, “By giving Flying kiss to all women members, Rahul Gandhi went away.” However, he says that in the complaint letter, the complainants have mentioned it as “Inappropriate gesture towards Smriti Irani”.

Zubair doesn’t stop with the flying kiss. He continues to dig into the former allegations of Smriti Irani. Here is one. He writes, “Remember she had problem when a Minister from opposition party addressed her with “Dear”. But had no issues when party person wrote a letter with “Dear Smriti Irani ji”.”

Unfortunately for Zubair, he ended up comparing a formal letter and an informal medium such as Twitter and probably does not understand salutations and nuances when addressing a lady in public.

It is indeed difficult to come to a conclusion regarding Zubair’s intentions in attempting to fact-check whether the flying kiss was indeed directed, particularly towards Smt. Irani, the Speaker, or the members present in the treasury benches.

Congress Leaders Justify RaGa’s “Flying Kiss” In Parliament

Today is the first day in Parliament after suspension for Wayanad MP Rahul Gandhi. Just as the news of the alleged flying kiss by reinstated MP broke, Tamil Nadu Congress Committee Spokesperson and General Secretary, Lakshmi Ramachandran tweeted admitting that Rahul Gandhi had indeed blown a flying kiss. She even goes on to defend the alleged gesture with a justification.

She tweeted, “Please don’t sexualise a kiss, madam! We kiss our babies…we kiss our elders…we kiss our friends of all genders, we kiss our brothers, sisters, husbands, wives and partners and the underlying emotion is just pure Grow up and find some other fault if you can!”

When a Twitter handle asked whether he got consent, she replied, “For a flying kiss to a large group of people? Next time, when Rahul Gandhi says Namaste also he will get Smriti Irani Ji’s consent! Don’t worry!”

She also tweeted quoting Smriti Irani’s video saying, “Madam, What is misogynist about a kiss? Doesn’t a father kiss his children, daughter, mother? Please don’t become like your predecessor in Mahila Morcha who throws away her brain while talking about Rahul Gandhi!”

Mohan Kumaramangalam, Working President of the Tamilnadu Congress, also tweeted in support of the alleged flying kiss. He wrote, “This is an image taken at the Red fort when he blew a flying kiss to all the Bharat Jodo Yatris. Those have hate in their hearts, gobar in their heads and acid on their tongues cant differentiate between an action signifying universal love and a misogynists perversion.”

Everyone seemed to be going the “Mohabbat Ki Dukaan” way.

Alleged journalists such as these also wrote in “support” of Rahul Gandhi’s alleged gesture. He claims “flying kiss is done & accepted globally. It’s just nitpicking.”

Shiv Sena’s Rajya Sabha MP, Shiv Sena UBT Spokesperson, and former Congress member, Priyanka Chaturvedi said, “I was at the visitors gallery and he (Rahul Gandhi) did it as a gesture of affection. They (BJP) can’t accept love.”

Speaking to NDTV, an unnamed Congress leader is said to have acknowledged the alleged gesture. He said, “Rahul Gandhi gestured towards the treasury benches as he was leaving with a flying kiss as he had called them brothers and sisters. He did not direct it towards any particular minister or MP, and not at all towards Union Minister Smriti Irani”

Netizens questioned the hypocrisy and the poor behaviour of the Congress, especially that of Rahul Gandhi and those supporting the alleged gesture.

Rahul Gandhi Says Modi Govt Murdered Bharat Mata, Allegedly Blows Flying Kiss As He Exited Parliament After Speech In No-Confidence Motion

It was reinstated MP Rahul Gandhi’s turn today to talk in support of the No-Confidence Motion moved by his party and allies against the ruling government led by the Bharatiya Janata Party under Prime Minister Modi.

Rahul Gandhi began his speech by “assuring” the members that he would not talk about Adani (however does a U-turn later) and spoke about how the Bharat Jodo Yatra dissolved his “ahankaar” (ego).

Rahul Gandhi claimed that he had been waking up to criticism and derogatory comments on a daily basis for the past 9 years. He said he felt curious to understand the reasons behind this treatment and thus intended to find the answer through his Bharat Jodo Yatra which he claimed was not over yet.

He raised the topic of Manipur, stating that for the Prime Minister, it was not a part of India, and questioned the Prime Minister’s absence from the region.

Then Rahul Gandhi started making controversial statements. He alleged that “Hindustan ko murder kiya hai” (India has been murdered) and accused the centre of being responsible for committing “Bharat mata ki hatya” (murder of Mother India) in Manipur. He used strong language to label the ruling government as “deshdrohi” (traitors) and “Bharat mata ke hatyare” (killers of Mother India).

In response to these derogatory statements, the members of the House raised their voices and the Speaker of the Lok Sabha, Om Birla intervened. He said that Bharat Ma is our Mother and you must not speak like that, to Rahul Gandhi. To this, Rahul Gandhi replied saying, “Yes I am speaking about the murder of Bharat Ma. You have killed my mother. One mother of mine is sitting here, the other mother, you killed in Manipur.”

He talked about Ramayana and said Ravana used to listen to only two people, Meghnad and Kumbhakarna. He accused the Prime Minister Modi of not listening to the people of the country or the people of Manipur but instead claimed that PM Modi would only listen to two people – Amit Shah and Adani. He went on to compare the burning of Lanka with the “burning of Manipur & India”. He said Lanka was not burnt down by Hanuman, it was burnt by the ego of Ravana. Similarly, here the same thing is happening. Modi is burning the whole country and you are committing the murder of Bharat Mata.

In response, Union Minister and BJP MP Smriti Irani rebuked Gandhi’s claims. She thundered, “You are not India, for India is not corrupt. India believes in merit not in dynasty & today of all the days people like you need to remember what was told to the British – Quit India. Corruption Quit India, Dynasty Quit India. Merit now finds a place in India…”

Irani cited examples of gut-wrenching events such as Girija Tikkoo’s rape and murder as well that of Sheela Bhat and cited a few examples from the 1984 Sikh riots where people have suffered under the Congress and questioned the sincerity of Congress in addressing such matters.

She also said, “In the history of the Parliament, no one has ever slammed/patted the desks when someone spoke of the murder of Bharat Mata. However, today, Congress members have patted/slammed the desks when he spoke of the murder of Bharat Mata”

Coming to the claim that Rahul Gandhi made, that for Prime Minister Modi, Manipur is not a part of India, Irani quoted EV Velu who is an alliance partner of the Congress. EV Velu had said that for Tamilians, India was a country in the north. She questioned Gandhi whether he had the guts to confront his alliance partner for these statements.

Irani also mentioned a point about Article 370 and said “…It was mentioned in the House today that he (Rahul Gandhi) undertook a Yatra and gave assurance that they will reinstate Article 370 if it is up to them…I would like to tell the person who has run away from the House that neither will Article 370 be reinstated in the country nor will those who threaten Kashmiri Pandits with “Ralib Galib Chalib” be spared.”

She even asserted that her party was ready for discussions on the Manipur issue and even invited the other members of the House for a discussion. She said, “Parliamentary Affairs Minister Pralhad Joshi, Union Home Minister Amit Shah & Defence Minister Rajnath Singh repeatedly said that the government is ready to debate on the Manipur issue. The opposition ran away from it, we did not…”

As she concluded, she alleged that Rahul Gandhi blew a flying kiss as he was exiting the Lok Sabha after his speech. She said, “I object to something. The one who was given the chance to speak before me displayed indecency before leaving. It is only a misogynistic man who can give a flying kiss to a Parliament which seats female members of Parliament. Such undignified conduct was never before seen in the Parliament of the country…” 

Union minister Shobha Karandlaje and other women BJP MPs complained to Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla against Rahul Gandhi’s alleged act of blowing a flying kiss inside Lok Sabha and accused him of insulting women MPs.
