Any updates on kashmiri pandit genetics?
rahul gandhi keeps harping about obc this and obc that. looks and sounds strange and looks stupid and superfluous. in his mind rahul probably has a pictutre of obc which is similar to that of a andaman tribal and not ahkilesh yadav!!!
lmao
his strategy seems to be “I need to be lucky only once to be in driver’s seat”. I think RW in India needs to have a “what if” strategy considering the backing he has from “regime change” forces.
The latest blasphemy brouhaha in PK is a stark demonstration of how the people are still “subaltern hindu” in their religiosity.
To clarify, real subaltern Hindus don’t believe in blasphemy. They venerate particular sanctified spots/vigrahas. Pakistanis seem to have acquired new objects to venerate after their conversion. The concept of blasphemy is just acting as steroids.
I see that the newer folks have all left and the older folks have returned
sai deepak is on a talking tour of u s. the crowd is adulatory and is not questioning him. he is probably being an item number!!!
