Bhagat Singh and his comrades logically advocated the idea of an independent India which was to be inclusive in nature, with strong bonds of commonality and rejection of religion in matters related to the state. In simple terms, they were against the formation of any Hindu rashtra or an Islamic state.

Thank you @yadavtejashwi for taking a stand in support of AMU students. Not many politicians have guts to emulate you since soft Hindutva is the flavour of the season
A right-winger thanks The Wire for showing how liberals must be treated https://t.co/CCl5ypA1ft via @opindia_com
I will post newspaper cuttings from 1857 where the British were providing the same justification for the subjugation of Indians that Hindu liberals give today for the subjugation of Kashmiris. The nature of the oppressor has not changed in 160 years. The skin has.
Bharatpur was a princely state. Had most of the privileges and competence of a full country. Now reduced to the status of a forgotten beggar of a district. https://t.co/BKGA26sLks
You cannot have scale without centralisation. Ultimately it is the scale that is responsible for centralisation. To some, it was obvious. If only IT fools had some wisdom.

There has never been any doubt that RSS is a fascist organisation. They shouldn’t be compared with the Nazis loosely but fascist they are. Ultranationalism and militaristic jingoism is their basic nature. https://t.co/X84YJLcB36

The four mistakes show that Chinese leaders have not always made consistent, value-maximising choices. Perhaps it is our lack of knowledge about China that makes us ascribe rationality to every decision of the Chinese leadership.

Like all ideas about human evolution, the cooking hypothesis can only be tested indirectly—without a time machine we cannot know exactly what happened in our evolutionary history.
How do maps influence the way we think of the world? In space, there is no top or bottom. This map invites us to re-evaluate our perception. #map #worldmap #perception #newsociety #world #countries #equality https://t.co/TaLRP0oY2p
