#NewsLiveNow पश्चिम बंगाल की राजधानी कोलकाता में मतदाता सूची के विशेष व्यापक पुनरीक्षण (SIR) के विरोध में टीएमसी ने आज एक विशाल रैली निकाली। इस प्रदर्शन का नेतृत्व मुख्यमंत्री ममता बनर्जी और उनके भतीजे अभिषेक बनर्जी ने किया। मंच से संबोधित करते हुए ममता बनर्जी ने SIR प्रक्रिया पर आपत्ति जताई और कहा कि यह पूरा अभियान बीजेपी के इशारे पर चलाया जा रहा है, जिसका मकसद अल्पसंख्यक समुदायों और वास्तविक मतदाताओं को सूची से बाहर करना है। उन्होंने लोगों से आग्रह किया कि किसी भी वैध नागरिक को ‘बाहरी’ करार न दिया जाए। अपने संबोधन में ममता बनर्जी ने कहा, “मैं सबसे पहले सभी धर्मगुरुओं का आभार व्यक्त करती हूं, जिन्होंने हर मोड़ पर हमारा साथ निभाया है। कई असंगठित ठेलेवाले और प्रवासी श्रमिक भय में जी रहे हैं, केवल इसलिए कि वे बंगाली भाषा बोलते हैं। क्या आप सिर्फ भाषा के आधार पर किसी को देश से बाहर कर सकते हैं? जैसे उर्दू बोलने वाला हर व्यक्ति पाकिस्तानी नहीं होता, उसी तरह बंगाली बोलने वाले सभी लोग बांग्लादेशी नहीं होते। #MamataBanerjee #TMC #BJP #SIR #ElectionCommission #WestBengal #India

ब्रेकिंग न्यूज़: चौंकाने वाली खबर.. मध्य प्रदेश में पलाश अधिकारी नाम के एक व्यक्ति को पुलिस ने बांग्लादेशी होने के शक में हिरासत में लिया। पलाश टूटी-फूटी हिंदी में बता रहा था कि वह भारतीय है और हिंदू भी। बाकी कहानी पढ़कर आपको हैरानी होगी.. 😨 पुलिस ने कहा कि वह भारतीय नहीं है। लेकिन पलाश ने अपना आधार कार्ड, वोटर आईडी, पैन कार्ड और कई अन्य दस्तावेज़ दिखाकर साबित किया कि वह भारतीय नागरिक और हिंदू है। इसके बावजूद, पुलिस ने उस पर विश्वास नहीं किया और मामला अदालत पहुँच गया। अदालत में पलाश से कुछ बुनियादी सवाल पूछे गए: नाम? पलाश अधिकारी उम्र? 42 वर्ष पिता का नाम? रमेश अधिकारी पता? काशिमपुर, मालदा, पश्चिम बंगाल अदालत ने इन तथ्यों की जाँच मतदाता सूची और आधार रिकॉर्ड से की और पाया कि ये सभी जानकारी रिकॉर्ड में मौजूद थीं। रमेश अधिकारी के चार बेटे दिखाए गए थे: पलाश, सुभ्रतो, सौमेन और राहुल। अब सवाल यह उठा कि अगर रमेश अधिकारी भारतीय हैं, तो उनके बेटे भी स्वाभाविक रूप से भारतीय ही होंगे। लेकिन जब अदालत ने पुराने रिकॉर्ड, खासकर 2002 की विशेष जाँच रिपोर्ट (SIR) देखी, तो एक चौंकाने वाला सच सामने आया। 2002 और 2010 के रिकॉर्ड में, रमेश अधिकारी के केवल दो बेटे थे: सुभ्रतो और सौमेन। पलाश और राहुल का कोई ज़िक्र नहीं था। 2015 में, अचानक रमेश के चारों बेटे मतदाता सूची में दिखाई देने लगे। जैसे-जैसे जाँच आगे बढ़ी, पता चला: रमेश की शादी 1993 में हुई थी। पहला बेटा सुभ्रतो 1995 में पैदा हुआ था (अब 30 साल का है)। दूसरा बेटा सौमेन 1997 में पैदा हुआ था (अब 28 साल का है)। लेकिन पलाश 42 साल का था - यानी उसका जन्म 1983 में हुआ था, यानी रमेश की शादी से पहले। यह मुमकिन नहीं था..!!! जब रमेश अधिकारी से पूछा गया कि क्या वह पलाश या राहुल को जानता है, तो उसने साफ़ कहा कि वह नहीं जानता। तब असली पहचान उजागर हुई: पलाश अधिकारी असल में शेख मोइनुद्दीन था, जो अहमदपुर, खुलना, बांग्लादेश का रहने वाला था। उसने फ़र्ज़ी दस्तावेज़ बनाकर और खुद को भारतीय और हिंदू बताकर घुसपैठ की थी। पिछले 10 सालों से वह मज़दूर बनकर गुप्त रूप से कट्टरपंथी गतिविधियों में शामिल था। राहुल अधिकारी नाम का यह शख्स कौन है, यह कोई नहीं जानता - पुलिस उसकी तलाश कर रही है। रमेश अधिकारी, जो एक साधारण किसान हैं, खुद हैरान थे कि कैसे एक अनजान व्यक्ति उनके बच्चे के रूप में दस्तावेज़ों में शामिल हो गया। यह मामला दिखाता है कि कैसे हज़ारों बांग्लादेशी घुसपैठिए फ़र्ज़ी नामों से आधार, वोटर आईडी और पैन कार्ड बनवाकर खुद को भारतीय साबित कर रहे हैं। यह देश की सुरक्षा के लिए एक गंभीर ख़तरा है। सरकार से माँग है कि मतदाता सूची की गहन जाँच की जाए और ऐसे फ़र्ज़ी नागरिकों की पहचान करके उन्हें बाहर निकाला जाए। कृपया इस पोस्ट को शेयर करें और जागरूकता फैलाएँ। #Bangladeshi #ghuspaithiye #scrolllink #alert

When Bhagwan Ram returned to Ayodhya after his exile, the first thing He did was to worshipping Lord Ganesh and Goddess Laxmi. Since then the tradition started to worship Laxmi and Ganesh on Diwali. It evolved into a religious custom to worship Laxmi and Ganesh on Diwali night as “Diwali Puja”. In later days, worshipping Ganesh (Vighnaharta) before any celebration started and by that time - all the earlier glorious battles were almost forgotten and Men started to worship Money aka Lakshmi. Diwali is celebrated for different reasons by different people. 🪔For most strict Vaishnavas, it is the day Rama returned to Ayodhya. Some also celebrate this as the day of liberation of the women captured by Narakasura, after he was killed by Devi Satyabhama (the wife of Lord Krishna) 🪔For the business community it is the beginning of new year and for the closure of accounts of the previous year and for beginning of the new account books. 🪔Lakshmi is the goddess of wealth. Hence the Gods of prosperity (that is Devi Lakshmi) and good luck (that is Lord Ganesha) are worshipped. 🪔For some, Diwali also celebrates the return of Pandavas after 12 years of Vanvas and one year of "Agyatvas" in Mahabharata. 🪔Once my father said Diwali is the day when Vishnu came back to Lakshmi and their abode in the Vaikuntha; so those who worship Lakshmi receive the benefit of her good mood, and therefore are blessed with mental, physical and material wellbeing during the year ahead. 🪔Hindus in India's eastern region, such as Odisha and West Bengal, worship the goddess Kali instead of Lakshmi, and call the festival Kali Puja. 🪔In Braj Bhumi and north central regions, the god Krishna is recognized. People mark Mount Govardhan, and celebrate legends about Krishna. In other regions, the feast of Govardhan Puja (or Annakoot) is celebrated, with 56 or 108 different cuisines prepared, offered to Krishna, then shared and celebrated by the local community. Because people in general In in this era of Kalyug are easily trapoed by Maya (illusion) they know only desire, money and sense gratification. They dont know that Where Lord Vishnu resides Laxmi is always present their and serves Him. Narakasur was killed by Shri Krishna during Kartik Chaturdashi. Narakasur was the son of Varaha Avatar and Dharitri/Bhudevi ( Mother earth). He got the boon from Brahma that only his mother can kill him. With so much of power, he did all tamasik activity, made friendship with another demon named Mura. He kidnapped 16000+ princes and imprisoned them. He even stole the jewellery of Aditi ( Indra’s mother). He crossed all the limits and finally in Dwapar Yug Krishna took birth, attacked Narakasur at night along with Satyabhama and killed his general come friend Mura. Then finally Narakasur. He realized that God Himself came to kill him hence he is getting relieved from all the sins he has done so far. So this death of him should be celebrated. Hence, after Narak Chaturdashi, we celebrate Deepawali – the death of Narakasur. The event is celebrated to signify the victory of light over darkness, good against evil, knowledge against ignorance and righteousness over anarchy. #दीपावली #diwali #scrolllink #hindu #sanatan #lakshmi

The Dawn of Liberation: The Profound Truth of Naraka Chaturdashi As the world rests in the pre dawn hush of Chaturdashi, a sacred tremor of anticipation stirs the soul. This is no ordinary darkness. This is the darkness that precedes the brilliant dawn of Diwali, a darkness pregnant with the promise of liberation. This is Naraka Chaturdashi, the day the soul conquers its inner hell. The ancient scriptures, the Puranas tell us of the Asura king, Narakasura, a being of immense power but twisted purpose. Born of Mother Earth, Bhudevi, and Varaha Swami, he was destined for greatness. Yet, intoxicated by his own might kidnapped 16,000 princesses, imprisoning them in his fortress. His reign was one of untold suffering, a literal naraka (hell) on Earth. But the Leela, is always one of balance. The prayers of the oppressed reached the heavens, and the preserver, Lord Sri Maha Vishnu, in his form as the mighty Sri Krishna, descended to Earth. Mounted on Garuda, with Satyabhama waged a cosmic war against the darkness. The Puranas reveal the profound symbolism hidden within this epic battle. The Vishnu Purana and the Bhagavata Purana do not merely narrate a historical event, they map the terrain of the human condition. Narakasura is not just an Asura, he is the embodiment of our own arrogance (ahankara), our boundless desires (kama), our attachment (moha), and our ignorance (avidya). The 16,000 princesses represent the countless divine energies and virtues of the soul that we hold captive through our own negative tendencies. The killing of Narakasura by the divine couple, Krishna and Satyabhama, signifies the essential partnership of divine grace and our own resolute will (Satyabhama represents the fierce, devoted aspect of the seeker). It teaches us that God's grace is ever ready, but we must actively participate in our own liberation. As the Skanda Purana beautifully elucidates, the pre dawn ablution on this day is not just a physical cleansing. It is a sacred ritual of washing away the impurities of the mind and spirit. The act of applying oil and uptan (herbal paste) before the bath is a symbolic gesture of anointing the body, the temple of the soul, preparing it for a profound transformation. This is the profound truth of Naraka Chaturdashi: Your inner Naraka is not your permanent address. It is a fortress you have the power to breach. The darkness of ignorance, the chains of past karmas, the prison of ego, all can be shattered. The lamp that is lit after the holy bath on this day is not just a physical flame. It is the Jnana Jyoti, the lamp of supreme knowledge that dispels the shadows of the soul. As the Garuda Purana affirms, observing the vows of this day with sincerity has the power to absolve one of sins and bestow blessings that lead to Moksha, final liberation. It is a day to remember. On Naraka Chaturdashi, Lord Krishna manifests not just on a battlefield, but within the heart of every devotee who seeks to conquer their own inner Narakasura. So, as you rise in the sacred Brahma Muhurta this Naraka Chaturdashi, let the cool water of your bath be a purity of the spirit. As the first rays of the sun touch the earth, feel the light of consciousness dawn within you. For today is not a remembrance of a battle fought long ago. It is a celebration of the victory you are destined to claim, the victory of your eternal, luminous Self over the transient, dark prison of the ego. May this Naraka Chaturdashi illuminate the deepest corners of your being and guide you from the darkness of Naraka to the everlasting light of Narayana. Om Namo Bhagavate Vasudevaya.✨🙏🏽 #narakchaurdashi #chhotidiwali #narakasur #scrolllink

Rani Ki Vav at Patan, Gujarat also known as Queen's Stepwell Rani Ki Vav, Patan Queen's Stepwell, A UNESCO World Heritage Site Patan is a district in the state of Gujarat, located at 125kms distance from Ahmedabad. Patan was once the capital of the state in historic times located on the banks of the (lost) Saraswati River. Nestled in the hustle and bustle of the city Patan, lies an “Architectural Wonder” – Rani Ki Vav. It is also known as “Rani Ni Vav” in Gujarati local dialect. This is a 7 storeyed Magnificent Stepwell, which is built using scientific principles for storing water. Back in 11th century, Udaymati, Queen of the King Bhimadev I from Solanki(Chalukya) Dynasty, expressed her desire to build a stepwell. This stepwell, she ordered to build is in the memory of her beloved husband. Rani ki Vav is one of the UNESCO World Heritage sites in India. The new ₹100 rupee currency note has a picture of this stepwell. Let’s have a visual tour of Stepwell As you walk towards this site, it doesn’t appeal very much. Just a compound wall and some—Well Kept—landscaping work is done around it. The more you approach it, the more it starts appealing. When you reach the main entrance, the Jaw-Dropping view absorbs you in it. Perspective steps going deep down towards the well-shaft are accompanied by intricately carved idols of gods and goddesses. Each idol is as magnificent as if they are living things. The far end is of this stepwell—which is a well-shaft—is not even clearly visible from the first step. Constructional Aspects Rani ki Vav was constructed as a religious as well as a functional structure. The expanse of this stepwell is roughly 1610 sq.m. and 70m length from the base of Toran—Sacred Gateway—to the inner edge of well-shaft. Its 23m in width and 28m in depth. Rani Ki Vav is constructed like an inverted temple highlighting the sanctity of water. It is built on the East-West axis, “Step-Corridor” being in the east and “Well” on the west. Ceremonial Entrance (Toran Dwaar) The first architectural object you see as you step down, is the remains of a pillar base. This evidently confirms the presence of Toran Dwaar – A Ceremonial Entrance. In 19th century, a survey was conducted for Rani Ki Vav. James Burgess and Henry Cousens were two archeologists who had mentioned about these pillars in the survey. The Toran was comprised of 2 freely standing pillars, which were connected by an ornate arch at their upper sections. Towards the west side from this entrance, downward leading steps make a way to the edge of the well. Ceremonial Entrance (Toran Dwaar)Ceremonial Entrance (Toran Dwaar) Architecture and Decorative Work Rani ki vav is a seven storeyed and inverted temple like structure. It has 4 pavilions downwards from east to west and then lastly a Well Shaft. Below is a picture taken from first pavellion. You can see other 3 Pavilions as well. Rani ki Vav is a Maru-Gurjara style architecture. A style of “temple architecure” which is originated from the Gujarat & Rajasthan in historic times. All the 7 levels were open for public and tourists were able to go down to the well. Then there was a powerful earthquake in Bhuj which rocked the state of Gujarat in 2001. After this earchquake, out of 7 levels, only 4 levels are left open for public to ensure the safety & security. There is a great diversity of themes: Divine Figures: Devi or Goddess, Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva, Ganesha in their respective incarnations and form Sacred & Mythical Representation Figures: Dikpalas, Sacred flora and fauna, Apsara, Nagkanya, Vasus and scenes from epics Reflection of Contemporary Society Buddha, Kalki and Mahishasurmardini sculptureFrom left Buddha, Kalki and Mahishasurmardini Sculpture Mahishasurmardini is one of the forms of a goddess “Durga” who is killing a demon called Mahishasur. MahishasurmardiniMahishasurmardini Sculptures in Rani ki Vav are displayed in a pattern, where main deities are displayed in niches. These main deities are flanked by semi divine figures like Apsaras, Nagkanya, Dikpalas and Yogini.& Sheshshayi Vishnu Sculpture During medieval times in Gujarat, there was a tradition of installing “A Sheshshayi Vishnu” sculpture inside the Stepwell, Kunda or Temples. Which you can see in Modhera Sun Temple as well. Sheshshayi Vishnu is represented in 3 successive niches in 3 levels on the rear wall of the Well Shaft. One between the first and second pavillion on the niche of the north wall. In addition to this, out of 24 forms of the lord Vishnu, following forms are present in Rani ki Vav: Keshava, Narayana, Govinda, Vishnu, Trivikrama, Vamana, Sridhara, Padmanabha, Damodar, Samkarsana, Aniruddha, Purusottama, Narsimha, Hari. Moreover 10 famous incarnations are also represented. But among those 10 incarnations; Varah, Narsimha, Vaman, Parshuram, Ram, Balram, Buddha and Kalki (future incarnation at the end of Kaliyug) are clearly identified in Rani ki Vav. Buddha is shown as an incarnation of the lord Vishnu here. A Bhairav—fierce form of the lord Shiv—is represented in a dancing pose here. If you take a closer look down on his right side, the dog is snatching a piece from the decapitated corpse. Licking the blood oozing from the freshly cut head that Bhairava is holding in his hand. Vishnu On Left and Bhairav on rightVishnu On the Left and Bhairav on the Right Brahma, Mahesh & Vishnu With Their Consort When you reach near the well (at 4th pavillion) you can see the panel of “Brahma, Mahesh & Vishnu with Their Consort”. The Top left side of front wall is decorated with the idols of Tridev(Ttriple deity of Supreme Divinity in Hinduism). Their Vahan is also present near each of them, Swan, Bull and Garuda respectively. Front wall sculptures from bottom levelFront wall sculptures at base level Brahma Mahesh and Vishnu with their consortsBrahma Mahesh & Vishnu With Their Consort On the Top-Right side of the front wall, you can see Ganesh with his Consort and then Maha-Lakshmi and Kuber idols are also present. These three are considered as Gods of Luck. Other Sculptures in Rani ki Vav Dikpals (Guardians of Eight Directions) also appear on the walls of Rani ki Vav. 8 Vasus are present on the walls with human body and Cow head in folded hands (Namaskar position). Nav graha are represented in a complete set, over Sheshshayi Vishnu on the Well Shaft. Sun (Surya), Moon (Chandra), Mercury (Budha also known as Grahpati), Venus (Shukra), Mars (Mangal), Jupiter (Brihaspati), Saturn (Shani), Rahu and Ketu constitute Nine Planets called Nav Graha. Dikpal - Guardian of directionDikpal – Guardian of A Direction A Marble sculpture of 48cm height was recovered while de-silting in 1987-88. This sculpture has an inscription in devnagari(indian script) “Maharajani Shri Udayamati”. Due to time constraints, we did not get a chance to see this sculpture. Hence, have no idea where it is kept (May be in museum). Rani Ki Vav is built using burnt bricks, lime mortar, and locally available “Dhrangadhra” stone. Larger blocks of stones were joined by Rosewood Dowels and placed on the ground, forming the floor of the steps and terraces. Interlocking system with woodInterlocking System With Wood A small glass plate was attached at several places where cracks are visible. These cracks were developed after Bhuj’s Earthquake. Upon asking about the purpose of these glass plates, our guide told us they are attached to keep the track of changes in such sections. When the stress on such sections will be increased, these glass plates will break and give an indication for safety. #thehinduheritage #CulturalHeritage #thehindugodsandgoddesses #scrolllink #bharat
