I’m a Kashmiri Pandit. My relatives were murdered, survived assasination attempts, & fled when they heard thousands chanting slogans like “Kashmir mai agar rehna hai, Allah ho Akbar kehna hai.” No that wasn’t the BJP, you fool. They were terrorists fighting Pakistan’s proxy war.

Exodus of Kashmiri Pandits was BJP's game plan - to polarise India. The community was made a scapegoat. BJP was in alliance with VP Singh Govt. The main characters were played by Advani, Vajpaee, Mufti & Jagmohan. This is harsh reality!

Pray tell, @raqib_naik , what disturbs you about this tweet? I mean it would be pretty ironic if you’re hating on @TulsiGabbard for using the word “Islamist”, while hurling “Hindutva” at every Hindu you don’t like.

This anti-Muslim bigotry & hate partially comes from her lifelong association with the members of Sangh Parivar in the US. FYI, her miserably failed 2020 presidential election bid was well funded by the US based RSS affiliated groups and individuals. #DismantlingGlobalHindutva

The United States is a secular country founded on Christian principles. I live in Texas. The 10 Commandments are publicly displayed on the grounds of our state capitol. India is a secular country founded on Hindu principles. But we make a fuss about it. Get over it.

Secular Indians are lamenting that #RamMandir means that "India is a Hindu country". Umm, I'm sure you geniuses know that the Official Motto of your country is "Satyameva Jayate". An ancient #Sanskrit phrase taken straight from the Hindu Upanishads. So why the fake outrage now?

Kashmiri Muslims refer to July 13 as Martyrs’ Day, since in 1931, 22 Kashmiri Muslims were killed by a Dogra ruler. But why start at 1931? Let’s go back to 1389, when the ruthless Muslim ruler, Sultan Sikander, taxed Hindus, forced us to convert, & destroyed our idols.
