Notable people who branded Dhurandhar as a propaganda movie include Vetrimaran, Ameer and Prakash Raj. This episode decodes the hypocrisy and the real truth of these so-called filmmakers and actors who are actually the real propagandists. Join the conversation!

    The Unknown Story of the 1921 Anti-Hindu Riots in Malegaon

    This podcast episode brings several eye-opening facts to light about how Gandhi misled the Hindu community into supporting the Pan Islamic Khilafat Movement. It was Gandhi who unilaterally glorified the bigoted Ali Brothers as nationalists and freedom fighters. Few people today know that Mohammad Ali got a Fatwa issued by 500 Ulemas throughout India to rebel against the government. Mohandas Gandhi endorsed this Fatwa from the official platform of the Indian National Congress. In a parallel development, the Khilafat Committee in Malegaon, Maharashtra, began making violent speeches, which eventually led to unprovoked violence committed by Muslims in the town. For three days in April 1921, the Muslim community set Malegaon on fire leading to a mini pogrom of Hindus, temple destruction, vandalism and large scale looting. This is a horrific chapter of recent history that has been largely untold. Listen to the full episode containing precious insights and hidden details of this incident and the career of Mohandas Gandhi.

    A Vile Order of Arjun Singh Blocks the Ram Mandir Excavations in Ayodhya

    INTRODUCTION When the disputed structure of Babri Masjid fell on December 6, 1992, the Congress was terrified. It feared it would permanently lose its Muslim vote bank. The Archeological Survey of India began the court-mandated excavations of the site. Each finding only increased the desperation of the Congress. That is when former HRD Minister Arjun Singh stepped in to do damage control. In an overnight order to K.V. Ramesh, former Joint Director General of the ASI, Arjun Singh effectively blocked the Ayodhya excavations and further delayed the rebuilding of the Ram Mandir. Learn the full details of this evil order and its disastrous consequences for the faith and devotion of millions of Hindus. Support our Podcasts!
