Only Indian vegetarians are this ridiculous and paranoid about other people being meat-eaters is because their vegetarianism is generally not out of love for animals, but out of caste and religious purity.
Why are vegetarians so annoying man, the audacity to tell me that I can’t cook non veg in my damn house if they move in is hilarious They then started negotiating, no seafood n eggs, only chicken that too twice a week Moron couldn’t stop saying I’m pure veg after every sentence

Farmers constitute an extremely important part of our country. And the efforts being undertaken to resolve their issues are evident. Let’s support an amicable resolution, rather than paying attention to anyone creating differences. 🙏🏻 #IndiaTogether #IndiaAgainstPropaganda

Agniveer is a societal disaster waiting to happen. Thousands of 21 year olds, with an incomplete education and with arms training, will land in a society with already-high unemployment.

Is it a deeply religious affair, though? I mean, people do the garba at airports, inside planes, and some of the songs, well, less said the better.

Dear Muslims, garba is a deeply religious affair - it’s not entertainment. It’s a celebration of Navadurga, of the mighty Devi and her nine forms. If you want to participate, please do ghar wapasi and submit to Maa. Else, pls stay away. Thank you.

The fact that we learnt about you in school as a pioneering IPS officer, and all that has come down to you sitting through a communal programme celebrating a shameful and illegal act, should shame all of us, even if you gleefully post videos of it.

Of course, he never had to pay a price for change of heart/hypocrisy/whatever it is. Not even a public mea culpa. He got to be the agitated liberal at litfests, became vice-chancellor at a lib university, and still gets to write columns lamenting an eroding democracy.

Whatever you might think about Fadnavis, he has nailed being (and more importantly, appearing) the alpha in his equation with Shinde. He might be deputy CM, but in this ad, there's no doubt as to who is in charge. Because we are wired to read from left to right.

Don't know which Dalit wedding (since they made it a point to say that's what it was) or Buddhist wedding looks like this - but sure. Might have made more sense to show them donate the crores they spent on this gala, to support Dalit-owned businesses or anything more practical.
