According to a report by India Today, the man, identified as Hamara Prasad, was arrested by the police after he recorded a video making provocative remarks against Dr BR Ambedkar. In the purported video, he held a book by Dr BR Ambedkar and said, “I would have killed Ambedkar like how Godse shot Gandhi."

Meh it's the same with English rappers in the US and Canada. Talking about biches, money and sX.
Not really bro, shit is real around here. I had the misfortune of growing up in these ghettos. Me and my brother were always at “war” with scum in the area we lived in— only b/c we chose to not be like them. Alhumdullilah, we made it out in timely fashion due to the efforts of my parents.
Paki thinks he's better than them.
I'm not Sidhu's fan but it was rare to hear or see vulgarity in his music vids. Couldn't really relate to his music. But Being a jutt is synonymous w/ gun culture and manliness amongst Indian Punjabis. It's their thing. On top of that Sidhu was starting to rap about Punjab issues. Which made him a threat to the Indian establishment. So they took him out.
Bro he didn't just make music on guns and shit. He actually made thought provoking music. For example, he made a song on Punjab and how it has been shafted. The Indian government has banned that song from YouTube. And it was released after his death.
Moosewala did glorify all of the things you Stated but he also spoke about A LOT of problems in India. He was against the shit Indian government pulls on the Sikh people and openly talked shit about them. He also talked about how the government treats the Indian Punjab horribly. He even mentioned Kashmir in one of his songs. Obviously dude made song that glorified the gun culture but he still made songs about real problems too. All and all, he still didn’t deserve 30 bullets in his stomach for making songs that glorified guns/violence and gangster culture.
Wrong. The success of Punjabi rap artists like Moose Wala and Bohemia demonstrates the genre's ability to connect with audiences and address issues that are relevant to people's lives. Even Moose Wala's music often addressed social and political issues in Indian Punjab, such as Modi government's brutality against Sikh farmers.
Is making kkkhalistanis druggies a gayop to turn all of pakjab into druggies.
So true, I grew up in a rough neighbourhood with second generation Afro-Carribeans and West Indians in the UK. Let me tell you something, those were natural born gangsters. They were like wild pit bulls because they were raised by single mothers and grew up in poverty. Most ended in Jail or dead. Compared to these middle class Pakistanis acting like gangsters 🤣🤣🤣
So your argument is that his music is irrelevant because he didn't actually sell drugs and kill people?
Yeah, same concept as a war veteran talking about war but never actually went to war but passing it off as truth.
Lol hilarious.
Only people who listened to Bohemia were sexually frustrated Isloo teens and middle class OSP’s who wanted rap in desi flavor. Success of Punjabi rap follows the same formula of commercialized rap where s*x, drugs, and violence sells. Music like this has only exploited troubled desi youth it has never empowered them.
Look at this clown pointing out anecdotal evidence when someone else tries to make a point, but using it himself in a matter-of-fact manner. This is just ironic, and I pity you for being blind to your own ignorance. It’s just the high and mighty attitude coupled with you thinking you’re spitting facts which is making me nauseous. You have absolutely no argument, you’re essentially arguing the same thing as video game violence = increase in real world violence. This has been absolutely proven to be false in the majority of literature in psychology, I’ve published my own meta-analysis of this for my mini-dissertation and there’s no evidence of a causal relationship.
Lots of after this
Did you just compare Tupac and Biggie to an imposter? This guy came from a middle class family, he was sent abroad as an international student for higher education. This man was a fake gangster rapping about a life he never lived. On his last days he was in contact w/ the POLICE to get protection against death threats he received online. This goes very much against his supposed gangsta persona. He promoted gang violence and gun culture and yet never lived a day of it. Why I have a gripe of hearing trash music like this in restaurants and weddings?— I’ll leave that open to interpretation.

Zahad was in the middle of a gender reassignment procedure to become a man in India's Kerala state when he and his partner decided they wanted a family.
At that point, the 23-year-old's breasts had been removed and he was undergoing hormone therapy that was deepening his voice, producing a moustache, and making his body more muscular.
Next was the removal of his female reproductive organs. But Zahad and his partner's desire for a child led him to pause his transitioning treatment and try for a baby.
Zahad, who goes by one name, was born a girl but identifies as a man. Partner Ziya Pavel, 21, was born a boy and is transitioning to become a woman.
The transgender couple, who live in the city of Kozhikode, have became India's first to have a baby.
Zahad gave birth to a healthy, 2.9kg baby on Wednesday, a few weeks before her due date in early March.
New mum Pavel said in an Instagram post that she shed "tears of happiness".
Breast milk from the hospital milk bank will be used to feed their family's new arrival.
Zahad and Pavel had decided they wanted a family together after dating for two years but knew adoption, given their situation, would have been fraught with problems.
As Zahad still had his ovaries and uterus, the couple thought it would be easier if he paused his gender reassignment treatment so he could conceive.
“I felt so strange and weird in my body as my tummy grew bigger and bigger,” Zahad told This Week in Asia on Tuesday. “But we knew we wanted a baby and for me it was a chance to be both a mother, in giving birth, and the father once my transition is complete.”
Zahad is from a Christian family. His mother, after initial reluctance, has accepted his new identity and the pregnancy.
Pavel has not been so lucky. Her Muslim parents and siblings shunned her at an early age, preventing her from pursuing her passion for classical dancing, which she now teaches at a local transgender centre.
Pavel recalls how relatives would cite Koran passages, warning of hellish consequences in the afterlife for “people like me”.
“They conjured up all these awful images of the punishments I will get but none of that matters to me. I knew who I was. I am happy with Zahad and even happier now that I am going to be the mother of a baby,” Pavel told Indian media.
The couple are well aware of some of the difficulties that lie ahead. Pavel’s dance classes do not pay well, nor does Zahad’s job in a local supermarket. When they go out they are used to getting strange looks, so were hesitant to post images of their pregnancy photo shoot on Instagram.
But nevertheless, there is no coyness in the pictures. Pregnant Indian women tend to cover their tummies demurely with a large dupatta (scarf) but that was not how Zahad chose to be photographed.
The images of Zahad’s naked belly in a variety of dramatic poses with Pavel have been widely shared on social media, drawing both praise and criticism.
Attitudes towards India’s estimated two million transgender people have been changing gradually for the better, although progress varies hugely from state to state.
Transgender people have become news anchors, mayors, chat show hosts and beauty queens. Kerala, in particular, has promoted several pro-transgender policies including reserving a certain number of government jobs for people who have changed s*x.
Now that their baby has arrived, Zahad and Pavel will decide on a time to resume their hormone treatment to finish the transition.
Zahad is clear about one thing. It is all very well conceiving, being pregnant, and giving birth, but now the baby has arrived, he is officially a dad.

My first thought after reading the form to express interest in volunteering at Pakistan’s annual Women’s March was: how many women in Pakistan know what “non-binary” and “cis woman” mean? In a country with a literacy rate of less than 50% for women, who was Aurat March hoping to attract with this questionnaire? Instead of being inclusive, the menu of gender options would probably make a majority of Pakistani women feel unqualified to participate, effectively excluding the aurat from Aurat March. But maybe that was the whole point.
Aurat March is set to take place on International Women’s Day, March 8th, across the country — for the sixth year running. It has been riven with controversy ever since its first iteration in 2018, when slogans like “Mera Jism, Meri Marzi” (“My body, my choice”) caused public outcry, the event being deemed un-Islamic. It’s common to hear Aurat March and the ideology it supports described as “foreign funded”, to advance “Western interests” in Pakistan.
My stone my choice
Why bend over backwards to champion the rights of Pakistan’s transgender community (a mere 0.24% of the population), instead of trying to extend an olive branch to the majority of the country’s 220 million citizens, men and women, in language they can understand? In her 2017 book, The New Pakistani Middle Class, Ammara Maqsood argues that, since the Nineties, “progress” in Pakistan has been defined by connections to the outside world. It is only when “an imagined audience, an outsider that needs to be addressed and convinced” believes that Pakistan is modern that Pakistanis will see themselves as modern, she writes. Concerned about how they’re portrayed on the global stage, elite Pakistani feminists want to signal to their comrades in the West: Look, we’re not the backwards and uncivilised country that we seem to be, we believe trans women are women. This tactic seems to be working, looking at the glowing coverage Aurat March gets from mainstream news media in the West, which frames the movement as an “Us versus Them”, zero sum game for which Pakistani feminists are risking their lives. But who exactly is “them”?
Chuds, that's who
The Aurat March would have it that “they” are “radical, Right-wing Islamists”. But the truth is, “they” are the millions of women who — having ascended to middle-class life since the Nineties — reject the idea that modernity in Pakistan must operate in lockstep with the West. These women instead embrace “Islamic feminism” and aspire to be part of the global Muslim community, turning to countries like Turkey for inspiration. They advocate for women’s rights within an Islamic framework, encouraging women to interpret the Quran and highlight the teachings of equality in the religion.
Internalized misogyny
But if Aurat March were to abandon this language, and incorporate terminology and manifesto demands more in line with the growing Islamic feminist movement in the country, its international brand would be irreparably damaged. Fighting for environmental justice, demanding to defund the police, and putting transgender politics at the centre of one’s activism — all part of Aurat March’s 2022 manifesto — is much more palatable to readers of the New York Times than engaging in “backward” practices like debating what rights women have in Islam. If Pakistan’s elites dared do such a thing, the West would write off the nation as another “shithole country” overrun by Islamists. Feminism’s status as a “luxury belief” would fall away — and so too would the Pakistani elite’s sense of itself.
Btw this is a Paki Canadian writing.
Judging from their volunteer form and most recent social media activity, Aurat March is comfortable with its solid position on the “lifestyle Left”. It promotes questions of identity, consumption, and moral attitudes over tradition and community. The annual event has become nothing more than an exercise in intellectual gatekeeping: a reminder to the upwardly mobile masses that the definition of modernity in Pakistan is a way for the established elite to preserve their dominant position in society. There is no room for either the new and growing middle class, or concern for the working-class women who can’t even read — let alone win a Rhodes scholarship.

Additional fun fact 1 US dollar now worth 275.22 Pakistani Rupee.
Pakistan likely going too go the way of the Zimbabwean dollar looks like.
1 USD = 322 Zimbabwean dollar.
So honestly close there.
1-2 more financial crisis and Pakistan will be officially doing worse than Zimbabwe economically.

There's a quote that's been cited by multiple publications that on 22 February 1971, General Yahya Khan is reported to have said "Kill three million of them [Bengalis], and the rest will eat out of our hands " Now this quote may not be true. But every action taken during that war and all the conflicts before and after it seem to embody and endorse the main spirit of this quote: that the main tactic by the Pakistani army to suppress the populace is to break the fighting spirit by decimating and overwhelming public movements through any tactic, dirty or clean.
The genocide we did didn't happen but our corrupt leaders getting couped by equally corrupt generals is genocide
We may think that this plays against the junta. But the dangerous duffers believe that after seeing the country go to heck under the "civilians's watch" we will become so utterly dejected and hopeless that we will yearn for the ounce of stability brought on by a full blown military-backed/martial law setup.
The hopelessness is by design, not a mistake. Resist it. Remember, they were not able to resist the public turnout in 1970 and failed to do any rigging against awami league. Therefore, their one and only goal right now is to spread enough hopelessness to depress public turnout.
Lmao they are legit going to pretend the guy Pakjab elected wasn't allied with military in suppressing a Beggardeshi PM.
Looks more like you're trying to sow hatred as well. I am mostly criticizing army too sometimes but get this thing into your head. A few hundred top brass is not the 6 million soldiers. Soldiers, NCOs and some junior officers go through the hardships that you can not even imagine and they still live as a part of the population that is below the poverty line. Hate the reason, not organization.
Don't preach us what and whom we should hate or love. Those few 100 come from the same corrupt soldiers and junior officers and rise through the ranks. The institution / organization is made up of all of those who are beneficiary of it.
I lost a brother and i do know inside out of the house that you have gazed from afar. You don't hang a family for q son's crime, you don't kill a city for a murderer and you don't blame an organisation for a few corrupt officials.
Oh so you belong to army. That explains alot. No need to argue more with you, bye and take care.
They are dangerous, powerful, and ruthless people. But we are fifth generation warriors, I am sure we are hurting them badly.

A Class 12 student fell unconscious in the examination hall on Wednesday after finding himself the lone male among 500 girl students in Bihar`s Nalanda district, his family said. The student was identified as Manish Shankar Prasad, 17, who went to the Brilliant Convent School Sundargarh to give the mathematics examination. His relatives claimed that he was the only male student at the centre. When he saw a large number of female students, he became nervous and collapsed on the floor.
"There were more than 500 girls students in the examination center. The school administration has given the seat to my nephew in the main hall of the school surrounded by a large number of girls. Manish failed to handle the situation after saw a large number of girls and fell unconscious," his aunt said.

@BitwardenShill commies BTFO again can you stop losing for one second?
Key bits
Although the 30% anchor portion of the issue had been subscribed fully last week, the book building process of India’s largest secondary share sale had only 3% in bids on Monday, amid concerns it could struggle due to the rout in Adani’s stocks.
But on Tuesday, the overall share sale was fully subscribed as foreign institutional investors and corporates pumped in funds, although participation by retail investors and Adani Enterprises employees remained low.

Noooo you must crash his stocks so the money is actually in jeopardy why is it not crashing?
Arab countries like Abu Dhabi
Most geographically literate redditor+lmfao at them suddenly hating muzzmuzz c*nts when they support the hecking chuderinos
When child activist Licipriya was tweeting about adani and his coal mine in Hasdeo forest, a lot of accounts were replying with identical tweets ( same spelling mistake), on checking their accounts their timelines were full of adani promotional contents. Then i realised adani also have his own IT cell, or may be they are the same BJP IT cell. Even on youtube, i have been noticing newly created accounts commenting ( for the first time).
Based dig more of the coal king!
They are not fighting for his religion. He is not even a Hindu, he is a Jain.
Jains even though they are a minority, they still enjoy the same privileges that upper caste hindus do in this country.
Smh jainbros why aren't you chimping out and burning trains every week now you're as bad as those upper caste hindus
Opposition is missing a trick by not taking this to streets . Create a benghazi out of it . Doesn't matter if they too get funds from Adani . Politics is the art of hypocrisy and adani doesn't have the guts to stop the money flow to parties now.
I can get politicians being like this, they have skin in the game. I'll never get why simps are like this though.
People are showing with their comments and reaction that government inaction in this case, will not affect results of the next election. This is as powerful as actually fighting for him. Even when there is increasingly clear evidence of a scam, PM “na khaunga na khane dunga” Modi will remain silent and instruct all regulatory bodies to do so.
The accusations start from before Modi was even chief minister of Gujarat though
Goldman Sachs, Nomura, Societe Generale, Jupiter, BNP Paribas, Al Mehwar, Citi Group, Morgan Stanley have picked up FPO stake too. they are gulams too ?

These neighbors even compared it to Jallianwallahbagh massacre.
First, the rightoid sneed.
Repeat after me: Adani is not India, India is not Adani.
If you need to hide behind nationalism, you only end up fooling yourself.
__
Some might say that hindenburg is making big on adani's fall but that is what the company does. That is how they make money and often losses as well in the process. The fact here is that their report had so much substance that adani bhaisahb is pulling the "anti-India" card to cover his butt. As if the facts in the report are unsupported or unsubstantial.
It is also Adani's fault that their business practices had so many weaknesses which a foreign firm is exploiting. Adanis basically tried 'Fake it till you make it' and is now whining that someone pointed out their fake methods.
__
Darn... whenever there are emotions instead of numbers in Finance... It doesn't end well.
__
also 413 page is a PR stunt, only 52 pages is the actual response, 300 plus pages "annexures"
before this my opinion was neutral about adani, but the moment their CFO made their video using the flag as the background, my opinion took a hard right.
he is trying to frame this as an attack on India, he is trying to hide behind us the people after scamming us the people.
Edit: Apparently the actual response is just 30 pages of the 52. This is like school students bloating the project by adding 100 reference papers.
Next, Leftoid/generic lib sneed.

He is absolutely correct that this is a scenario of Indians bringing down other Indians. Just forgot to mention he's the one looting his country.

I disagree. This is obviously as bad as the Holocaust.
In fact even the Jews did not suffer as much at the hands of the Nazis as Adani is suffering at the hands of the Hindenburg and the evil non Adani supporting Indians.
Remember folx if you don't support the pot bellied pudgy faced (((Gujjew))) billionaires, you're obviously an anti-national who is working for whitey.
