Satish was born on June 14, 1880, in Kurigram (now a part of Bangladesh) in Rangpur district of Bengal. He belonged to a poor family, yet due to his hard work and dedication, he was awarded a Master’s degree in chemistry from Presidency College, Calcutta. Image
Science and literature, though a lethal combination, makes this man stand out of the crowd. A simple linen dhoti with a shawl around his neck, Satish Chandra Dasgupta was man who never chose the normal road but preferred walking through a forest.

Let us know more about Babarao as he was fondly called on his Jayanti.

Ganesh Damodar Savarkar was born on this day in 1879.

From his childhood, Babarao was ImageImage
interested in our Itihasa and Purana's & also Yoga Kriya which left a deep impression on him.

Babarao, had to cut short his studies, as being the eldest son, had to take care of his 3 siblings as their parents passed away.

(Vinayak Studied Law & Ganesh became a Doctor).
As I mentioned above, the sacrifice of Babarao left deep impression on his siblings and they followed his principles, FOR LIFETIME.

It was 1905, Babarao from Maharashtra, opposed Bengal's partition and at the same time, he took care of Abhinav Bharat,

It was May 1974 and one man asked 17 lakh Railway Staff to stop working and brought India to a halt for twenty days.
“always for the people and never with the establishment”.
This is how one can tell about George Fernandes in a single sentence, and that was his clout.
#Jayanti Photo George Fernandes addr...Image
Fernandes was already an iconic anti-establishment figure when he organised the strike of Indian Railway workers in 1974, which was possibly one of the reasons Mrs Gandhi declared the Emergency.

Before that, he had made a name for himself as an organiser of strikes that would
bring Bombay to a halt.

George Fernandes is arguably the most important non-Congress and non-Hindutva politician in post-Independence India.

Often described as a rebel, he pursued every cause he took up with passionate devotion, heedless of the many ups & downs in his life.

Had India begun preparation for a ‘possible’ war with China, as professionally advised by #GeneralThimayya in 1959, history would have been very different.

In independent India’s history of 68-odd years, we have fought five major wars, four of which were with Pakistan and one
with China. The Indo-Pak wars went clearly in our favour, although the 1965 clash may not have had as definitive an outcome as we wanted. The Indo-China war of 1962 was a monumental fiasco, the ripple effects of which still resonate in our collective psyche.

Shiv Kunal Verma’s
book titled, “1962: THE WAR THAT WASN’T” tries to give a complete account of 1962 War between India and China. General Kodandera Subayya Thimayya, Padma Bhushan, DSO was Indian Army Chief from 08 May 1957 to 07 May 1961, and General Pran Nath Thapar served as Indian Army Chief

On the Janma Divas of Brave #SuhasiniGanguly, I write a brief tribute for the woman who was a rare figure in male dominated bastion of revolutionaries.

Born on this day Feb 03 1909 at Bengal, she passed matriculation and joined as a teacher at
Kolkata where she got acquainted with #JugantarParty and by 1929, British came to know about her activities.

She shifted her base to Chandannagar as it was French ruled, the Chittagong Armory Raid was one of the biggest attacks on British & Suhasini with Shashidhar Acharya
disguised themselves as Married Couple & gave shelters for those freedom fighters at her place. On September 01, 1930 British raided her house & in the melee Jiban Ghoshal got killed, Suhasini for the first time got arrested.

There is a message to Hindus in this Law Minister's Life Story.

When Congress including MKG tried to trample on Bhim Rao, it was #JogendranathMandal who helped him to enter Constituent Assembly.

Later on, he defied Dr Ambedkar, said he knows more about Muslims than him.
Mandal held the “myth” that Dalits will be treated better in the newly created State of Pakistan, a country carved out of India on the basis of religion (Two -Nation Theory).

He Joined hands with Muslim League before Partition & Became the 1st Law Minister Of Pakistan.
It was due to Mandal’s misadventure that Sylhet, a district of Assam went to East Pakistan. He convinced the Dalits to vote in favour of Pakistan.

Mandal, a champion of Dalit rights, supported the Objective Resolutions that turned Pakistan into an Islamic Republic.

The day K M Cariappa took over the reins of
the Indian Army, 15 January 1949, is marked as official Army Day and celebrated annually.

The Newspaper Article attached is a must read.

This man minced no words...always ramrod straight.
INA's slogan Jai Hind which means
"Victory to India", was adopted by Cariappa and later it became a formal phrase between personnel to greet each other. He also turned down the proposal to reserve vacancies in the Army for SC & ST as had been done in other govt services.

Am seeing more and more assault on India, Hindus & Indic people (hit jobs by Western news media etc aided by vulturous Indian journos & writers)

Suffice it to say - #Hinduism is the only remaining ancient counter polyculture to the massive monoculturing & theism of the world
Looks like many forces do not like it or want it to prevail.
From the #Ghazwa-e-Hind forces to the #Leftists to the #whitesupremacists #abrahamics we are facing massive assaults.
And deracinated #Indians people who are cultural illiterates contribute more to such assaults!
But civilisational continuity exists in only one region of the world. It's #India. Nowhere else. Not even Japan can claim it.

It's us #Hindus.

#Hinduism is the only living #pagan #pluralist tradition and as is it must be preserved by the world, not actively destroyed.

It appears #Savarkar’s #Jayanti passed yesterday without my notice. On the unhappy occasion, it’s worth remembering some things he wrote.
So what did #Savarkar write? “We Hindus must have a country of our own,” wrote Savarkar. “Truly Hindus are and cannot but be the mainstay of our Indian State.” He insisted that anyone living in India is, de facto, a Hindu — that is, that being Indian meant being Hindu.
#Savarkar wrote, “If you call it an Indian Nation it is merely an English synonym for the Hindu nation to us Hindus, Hindusthan and India mean one and the same thing. We are Indians because we are Hindus and vice versa.”
