A video has been circulating where a Maulana tells children in a madrasa that praying makes Allah happy, but celebrating festivals of other religions makes Allah upset and pleases Shaitan. This has offended many people, with some saying such teachings spread hate and that all madrasas should be shut down, even suggesting sending such people to Pakistan. The person calling out this video claims to expose wrongs in all religions, so he believes he is doing the right thing....

I’ve been involved in politics since June 2021. It’s been a long battle already—or at least, that’s how it feels. I find it frustrating that Congress doesn’t win many important elections, but then I see people still hoping for change. Congress workers—whom I prefer calling warriors—don’t give up. They motivate me. They are the protectors of the Gandhian and Nehruvian ideologies—ideologies that taught us equality, put the country and its people first, and overlooked individual differences....

After a long time in India people started accepting the girls as blessings when born, prior to this female foeticide was practiced....

It is very unfortunate that the PM of the nation was responding to the LOP yesterday and he said nothing about Manipur nothing about NEET, nothing about his and his party's discrimination towards minorities, all lies about corruption, he was acting like the leader of trollers not like the PM of our nation. It's a shame that 25 lakh NEET students waited their case to be heard but the PM was busy calling the leader of Opposition Balak buddhi, he is a disgrace for the position he holds he is a disgrace for all the Indians who see him representing us when he goes on tours to other countries....

When I was schooling, it was the Congress government ruling, I never heard about any other political party, I wasn't into politics and none from my family or relatives was into politics, I knew Congress had some schemes and plans for minorities, but as I belonged to the general caste I never availed any facilities that were for the minorities....

The entire country has been polarised, suddenly there are sparks of communal outrage everywhere especially in a state like Goa which is known for its communal harmony. Of course BJP gets what it wants on a platter, before we even head on for election we know the results isn't it??.... Being a Hindu or Muslim is not going to fetch us our bread and butter.....

"War does not determine who is right, only who is left." - Bertrand Russell Before taking sides with any country one must reason and understand the geopolitical issue. Israel was established on May 14, 1948. This event is known as Israel's Declaration of Independence, and it marked the establishment of the modern State of Israel. It followed the end of the British Mandate for Palestine and led to the Arab-Israeli War, which began on the same day....
