#BombayHighCourt begins hearing the plea filed by Kangana Ranaut and her sister Rangoli Chandel challenging the summons and FIR accusing them of sedition.

@KanganaTeam
@MumbaiPolice

Bench of Justices SS Shinde and Manish Pitale hearing the plea are informed that Ranaut had attended the Andheri Police station as directed in the previous order.

Chief PP Deepak Thakare requests the court to direct her to appear for three more days as the investigation is ongoing.

Since Adv Rizwan Siddique appearing for Ranaut and her sister is not present the Court keeps back the matter in the afternoon session.

Siddique comes and Court asks him if he is ready to go on with the matter for final disposal.

Siddique: Yes milords I am ready to argue on merits.

Adv Rizwan Merchant appearing for the original complainant requests the court to first let him file the reply and then to proceed with hearing of the matter.

@RizwanSiddiquee

Court: Mr. Merchant if he can convince us that there is a inherent problem in the FIR. He has challenged the FiR, proceedings, investigation everything.

Merchant: But milords I am only asking for a week. Let me file my reply and then we may proceed. There are tweets involved.

Court agrees to adjourn the matter. Ad-interim protection granted in the previous order to continue.

Court: We anyways have reservation against invoking Sec 124A.

Merchant: Milords I will show from the tweets and law that it is sedition.

But milords may also refrain her from tweeting about the matter.

Court refuses to grant that direction.

Court: Mr. Merchant you have sought for adjournment.

Otherwise we will recall that order you argue on merits.

Thakare: There is an ongoing investigation.

Court: Mr. Thakare you have more investigations. This is not the only case with you.

Court grants liberty to Merchant to place on record any issues arising out of the sister’s tweets in his reply.

Adjourns the matter to January 25, 2021 for hearing.

@dir_ed

Bench of Justices SS Shinde and MS Karnik ask ASG Anil Singh where the other Sr Advs are.

ASG: Milords had this been physical hearing, I would have located them, it is difficult during virtual hearing.

All Laugh.

Court states that the officers of ED are willing to come to Mumbai to carry out interrogation and they can proceed with the interrogation subject to the outcome of the plea.

Sr Adv Amit Desai asks the court to note certain facts from the plea.

Desai submits that ED has claimed they do not have certain documents with them. We have submitted those records, these are public records, but we will provide them with whatever additional documents they want.

Desai: So I am submitting that those documents can be sent to the ED, they can go through the documents and then take further course of action.

What is the Gujarat Model of ‘development’? Thread.

1. Gujarat spends less than 2% of its income on education (the norm is 5-6%) with the result that 45% workers in Gujarat are illiterate or studied up to the fifth standard with the quality of education very poor. (The Wire)

2. Public expenditure on health is 0.8% of the state income, well below the norm of 4-6%. Gujarat is decelerating very fast in almost all health indicators.

3. Forty-five percent children in the state are undernourished and the decline of maternal mortality rate has decelerated.

4. Close to 93-94% workers are in informal and traditional sectors with low incomes and low social security.

One of the reasons it attracts businesses is because of the low wage rates, which are comparable to that of Uttar Pradesh.

5. The Gujarat government's cumulative public debt has shot up to an astronomical ₹2,40,651 crore in 2018-19 and estimated to rise to ₹2,66,990 crore in the current financial year, which is ₹62,000 crore more than the total budget of ₹2,04,815 crore.

6. During the Vibrant Gujarat investors’ summits held between 2003 and 2011, MoUs were signed pledging investment totalling ₹40 lakh crore. However, only 8 per cent of the promised investment, amounting to just ₹3 lakh crore actually came.

PAKISTAN-INDIA WATER ISSUES – HOW INDIA STOPPED WATER IN PAKISTAN's CANALS IN 1948

Thread

After partition in 1947, the water system was also bifurcated between Pakistan n India.

India cheated Pakistan when on April 1, 1948, India suddenly n without warning stopped...
1/n

...the supply of waters flowing into Pakistan's Central Bari Doab and Dipalpur Canals.

The boundary award on the partition of the sub-continent had left the headworks of these canals in Indian territory, and in accepting it India had implied her willingness to leave...

2/n

...the historic distribution of common waters undisturbed.

India's action was therefore in flagrant disregard not only of international law n morality, but of her solemn commitments with Pakistan and a gross violation of this country's historical rights over common waters.

3/n

Faced with a threat of utter desolation of millions of acres of fertile land, Pakistan had perforce to sign a document with India in which she agreed to "India's progressively diminishing water supplies to these canals and to the West Punjab government's tapping...

4/n

...alternative resources".

A specific reservation was made in the document with regard to India's claim that she had full property rights over waters flowing into her territory, and could therefore use them as she liked.

The issue was, however, to be examined...

Leaders must inspire. It is essential that a leader performs exceptionally well at a personal level. But that alone is inadequate. He should create synergy and lift his team to a higher plane. 1/n

Take Modi. He ticks all the boxes. Not easy to take a Country of 1.38 Billion people with you

On the Cricket Field Virat Kohli performs exceptionally well at a personal level. But does he inspire his team to perform at a higher level? I have serious doubts. 2/n

Rahul Gandhi neither performs at any level not does he create synergy and lift Congressmen. They are resigned to their fate all the time.

I had an exceptional Regional Manager who was brilliant in his work, and guided and motivated us. One would die for him. 3/n

I was once taking classes in 8th floor when I overheard a conversation between two of my students. One was chiding the other for showing undue respect to me. 4/n

Second student told him that "If Sir asked me to jump from this floor, I shall do so unhesitatingly, knowing that he would not ask me if he had not taken enough precautions in the first place".

It was one of the greatest moment of my life as a Teacher 5/n

"Secualrism is a curse for India"

It's a tool to cover up Muslim Appeasement in India. In last centuries, we have seen that how invaders destroyed India, but in 1947, Mahatma Gandhi and Nehru opted for "Secualrism".

A Thread about the so called "Father of the Nation, India"

Gandhi in 1922: "Even if the Muslims want to kill us all we should face death bravely. If they established their rule after killing Hindus, we would be ushering in a new world by sacrificing our lives!"

Apostle of 'non-violence' rationalising violence by 'Samudaya Vishesh'!

GANDHI after Moplah massacre in 1922: "Hindus must develop courage and strength to die before accepting forced conversion. I was delighted to be told that there were Hindus who did prefer the Moplah hatchet to forced conversion!"
Jihadis: Convert or Die.
Gandhi: Just Die.

'Fight Nazism without arms. Invite Hitler to take over your island.
If he refuses to give a free passage out. Allow your man woman child to be slaughtered!'

- 'Coward' Gandhi's advice to Britons when Hitler was invading Britain.

After Noakhali genocide of 1000's of Hindus & forced conversions of men & rape of women in 1946. GANDHI's advice to women to survive rape & conversion to Islam: "DRINK POISON or commit suicide by other means to commit dishonour".

RISHI PINGALA:THE ANCIENT INDIAN SAGE DISCREDITED FOR HIS MAJOR CONTRIBUTIONS TO MATHEMATICS & PHI

Have you ever heard about,"The Golden Ratio"?
The Golden Ratio or Phi(Greek) is a mathematical ratio of nature. Mother Nature is the most exquisite artist in herself.

&Its this Phi she uses to create all the beauty in World.
If anyone uses this ratio correctly in their art,it can turn into a spell-binding piece of work.Such is the significance of'Phi'.But my thread isn't about it.Its about somethin called'Fibonacci Series'&who actually made it

Phi is related to Fibonacci series(0,1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34...)
&this series is responsible for everything dat is beautiful on this planet. Just try to calculate the ratio of any 2 successive numbers ÷ each of them by the number before it in above infinite series.

E.g. 3/2=1.5, 5/3=1.666, 8/5=1.6, 34/21=1.61904 and so on. Did you notice something? The ratio is coming almost same every time. This ratio is called 'Phi 'which is numerically represented as 1:1.618. This Golden Spiral is made in exact proportion of 1:1.618.

The thing I want to emphasize here is that we always find only those things appealing and attractive that have Phi. It's in our subconscious. Isn't it some revelation? We are the part of this Divine proportion of the God or the Mother Nature. Check these:

Ancient Egypt was the most advanced civilization in the ancient world. Why was Egypt so special?

There are so many firsts in Egypt that we all know about, and that makes Egypt unique. For example, the Sumerians did not build the pyramids of Egypt.
