The Telegraph’s Lie About Narendra Modi Exposed

MUMBAI – MAHARASHTRA – INDIA           NOVEMBER 15 , 2013           02.00 P.M.

This is not an original blog written by me . In fact this is not a blog at all . I follow Shri Kiran Kumar ji on twitter . I read few of his postings about Shri Narendra Modi‘s Patna speech in Hunkar Rally . I knew that some canard is being spread and facts are twisted and concocted by vested interests . I wanted to write about the facts and the canards . But it was taking time , as my son met with an accident and I was in and out of the hospital most of the time . So my blog remained incomplete .

Suddenly I read these tweets and thought it proper to copy / paste them on my blog space . Therefore these 4 / 5 tweets are taken from the twitter-handle of Shri Kiran Kumar ji and are being quoted here .

I express my gratitude to Shri Kiran Kumar ji . I also express regrets for not taking his prior permission . I hope I will be forgiven .

Readers can go through it and find out what Shri Narendra Modi actually said in the Hunkar Rally of Patna and what is being spread by paid media . I denounce Shri Shankarshan Thakur for twisting the facts and spreading it for the convenience of his political masters . This is nothing less than professional misconduct . It is shame for a journalist .

My 4 prior tweets based of this awesome rebuttal to The Telegraph and “secular” Nitish. Their lies on Modi exposed -> http://fekukaun.blogspot.in/2013/10/an-answer-to-sankarshan-thakurs.html …

=================================

I hope these tweets will make picture clear and discerning public can judge the facts , which Shri Narendra Modi really said and the fiction and canard , which the paid media is deliberately and mischievously spreading on the orders of their masters .

I express shock and dismay that in the age of social media activism , such kind of canards can be cooked up and dished out by unscrupulous elements of paid media .

On behalf of  VIDUR Acting Institute , which is known as Vidur’s Kreating Charakters  , I wish and pray : May truth prevail ! May lie get defeated ! May virtue shine unabated !

Today while sitting in the office of  Vidur’s Kreating Charakters , my Acting Institute in Mumbai , I checked my twitter handle as usual . Mr. Kiran KS , whose twitter handle I follow , has posted 12 tweets dedicated to the V. S. Naipaul and Girish Karnad controversy . I was amazed because of the information I got .

These tweets are based on the article of Mr. Pratap Simha in today’s Kannada Prabha , a leading Kannada daily . Mr. Kiran KS has translated the information in English for the sake of non – Kannadigas and tweeted them .

View summary

4h Kiran Kumar S ‏@KiranKS

4h Kiran Kumar S ‏@KiranKS

3) So Mr. #Karnad , what’s wrong in Naipaul telling about the “wound” on a Hindu civilization caused by invaders Ghazni, Ghori, Babur etc?

Retweeted by Kamal N. Chaturvedi

Expand

4h Kiran Kumar S ‏@KiranKS

4) Mr. Girish #Karnad , if Babur cared so much about his birth country Uzbekistan, he could have “developed” that instead of India. Right?

Retweeted by Kamal N. Chaturvedi

4h Kiran Kumar S ‏@KiranKS

5) In “Thoughts on Pakistan” book, Dr. Ambedkar talks about Muslim mentality,like Naipaul. Will #Karnad oppose Bharat Ratna to Ambedkar too?

Retweeted by Kamal N. Chaturvedi

Expand

4h Kiran Kumar S ‏@KiranKS

6) Naipaul calls Taj Mahal a symbol of invasion. Pooh-pooh’s Romila Thapar’s Hindu Muslim “bhai-bhai” symbol talk. #Karnad , is that wrong?

4h Kiran Kumar S ‏@KiranKS

12) When VS Naipaul got nobel, #Karnad termed him the “greatest living literateur of Indian origin”. Now suddenly he’s a Muslim-virodhi??

1st edition (publ. André Deutsch) (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

Mr. Naipaul’s book ” India : A Wounded Civilization “ is now very much in focus . Mr. Kiran KS has given enough logic in favour of the book and Sir Vidia’s viewpoint . I don’t have any more logic . And I think I don’t have anything new to say about Mr. Girish Karnad and Sir Vidia controversy . I have already posted a blog about it :

5 Nov Kamal N. Chaturvedi ‏@VidurChaturvedi

Shame On You , Mr. Girish Karnad http://wp.me/ptyXI-2rQ

I , amazingly , got many responses for my blog . Some were in support and some were harsh . Few were very balanced . It’s wonderful to get connected to so many people having such diverse views .

[ I have re – tweeted from the twitter handle of Mr. Kiran KS . These tweets are based on the article of Mr. Pratap Simha published in a leading Kanada daily Kannada Prabha . I express my gratitude to all of them . ]

New Light on Nehru , Edwina & Partition of India

MUMBAI – MAHARASHTRA – INDIA           AUGUST 16 , 2012           11.55 P.M.

This is not my original blog . I have re-tweeted and re – arranged these tweets from the twitter handle of Mr. Kiran Kumar S. He is a nationalist thinker from Bengaluru and tweets frequently. You can visit his twitter handle @KiranKS or his website http://www.kiranasis.blogspot.com for more information about him .

Louis (1900-1979) and Edwina (1901-1960) Mounbatten (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

These tweets throw more light on the intriguing and clandestine relationship of Jawahar Lal Nehru and Edwina Mountbatten . Mr. Kiran Kumar S. has extensively quoted from a Kannada book . Name of the book : “Nehru Parade Sariyitu”. Feb 2006; Avani Publishers; By Chakravarthy Sulibele ; No English translation of this book is available yet . People , who know Kannada can refer to the original book for more precise information about this relationship , which overshadowed a very crucial phase of our nation and affected the happenings  during the partition and vivisection of this nation into Indiaand Pakistan . These tweets give you an idea about that fatal attraction .

  Kiran Kumar S ‏@KiranKS

1) Will tweet some shocking facts about what happened between 1946 and 1950, with focus on #Nehru -From Chakravarthy Sulibele’s Kannada book

  Kiran Kumar S ‏@KiranKS

2) First & foremost, India (and Pak/BD) did NOT become fully independent on 15 Aug 1947 (Pak 14). Just got “Dominion” status under the Queen

8) Per Janelle Morgan’s book, Edwina Mountbatten, page 378, British PM Atlee decided to use the “unusual lady” Edwina to get Dominion India.

9) Reasons British PM Atlee picked Mountbatten couple were-> Spies informed Nehru’s womanizing weakness, Louis M was OK with wife’s affairs.

  Kiran Kumar S ‏@KiranKS

10) Per Andrew Robert’s Eminent Churchillian book, page 58, Edwina had numerous affairs – Hugh, Bunny, Mike, Larry etc. Husband WAS OK.

  Kiran Kumar S ‏@KiranKS

15) Per Stanley Welford’s Nehru book page 361, Edwina ensured with a “fall”, that Nehru was in “love at 1st sight”. Indira was a witness!

  Kiran Kumar S ‏@KiranKS

16) The effect of Edwina was so quick that Nehru agreed NOT to attend a ceremony in Singapore to honour Azad Hind Fouz’s memorial 😦

  Kiran Kumar S ‏@KiranKS

17) Per Stanley Wolpert’s Nehru book, page 377, Nehru used to stay in Edwina’s rooms whenever he traveled to London. Hotel Door Chester.

22) Millions of Hindus/Sikhs on Pak side & Muslims on India side died. Mega tragedy happened due to Nehru issuing Partition acceptance letter

23) For the outstanding achievement in making India agree to partition & dominion status, Edwina got GBE and Louis, Earl awards/titles!

24) {Final}. Edwina was truly a Vishakanya. She was used cleverly when British understood Nehru’s weakness. Result? Partition & bloodshed 😦
