B L Santhosh

Lanka was made of gold. Ayodhya celebrated with clay lamps. Think about that this Diwali. Ravana had everything the world admires. A city of gold. Ten heads, the epic's way of saying he knew more than anyone around him. Scholar. Musician. Devotee of Shiva. He still lost. He didn't lose to a bigger army. He lost to a man in exile, walking barefoot, with an army of monkeys and bears. Brilliance without restraint destroys the one who owns it. Now look at the other side. Rama lost his kingdom overnight. No argument. No bitterness. He walked into the forest on the very day he was meant to be crowned, and he walked out smiling. Most of us can't let go of a small disappointment that gracefully. Bharata was handed the throne. He refused to sit on it. He placed Rama's sandals there and served Ayodhya for 14 years in his brother's name. Love that asks for nothing in return. Duty without ownership. Hanuman could leap across an ocean. He didn't know it. Jambavan had to remind him. So many people around us are Hanuman before Jambavan spoke. Sometimes the greatest gift you can give someone is to tell them you can do this at the right moment. The bridge to Lanka wasn't built in one heroic act. It was stone after stone. Monkeys, bears and, as the old story goes, a little squirrel rolling in sand to do its part. Rama stroked its back in gratitude. No effort is too small when the cause is right. Here's the part we forget. Ayodhya didn't light lamps when Ravana fell. It lit them when Rama came home. Diwali isn't a victory celebration. It's a homecoming. Fourteen years of forest, loss and war, and he returned with his heart intact. The same man who left. That is the real triumph. Everything else is Lanka. So this Diwali, as the lamps glow .. Ask what you're chasing. Gold or light. 
Ask who's been quietly carrying your sandals. Thank them. Ask who needs a Jambavan. Be one. Ask if you're still the person who left home. Light the diya. Then live like one. Small. Steady. Burning for others. Happy Diwali. 🪔

Diwali in Bastar…all thanks to our security forces! Naxalism is history. Development is the way ahead. Today was special and memorable.

Have a great Diwali!

IMPORTANT: One HUGE difference between June 2023, when the INDIA alliance was formed and the November 2026 Ramlila Maidan rally. The Congress is now firmly in the driver’s seat, with regional allies playing a supporting role. Equally significant, Rahul Gandhi has emerged as the principal face of the opposition, something that was far less evident three years ago. A political shift worth noting. 🙏

A very motivating address by Param Pujya Sarsanghchalak Dr. Mohan Bhagwat Ji during the Shatabdi Varsh Shri Vijayadashami Utsav in Nagpur. He has spoken at length on a wide range of issues including national progress and social unity, the need for self-reliance and to strengthen the character of society. Particularly noteworthy was his emphasis on the commitment to Seva and nation building that is integral to every RSS Swayamsevak. He also spoke about the Panch Parivartan and how these can contribute meaningfully to positive social change. @RSSorg @DrMohanBhagwat youtube.com/live/PcWgPtMVw_Q…

"Tired of going to the Supreme Court again and again, I don't feel there is any use of going to the Supreme Court, I have lost trust,"- Sr Adv Kapil Sibal. "We go to the Court, but I don't know if we will get any relief. The people of the country feel that this Government should go. If anybody can save the Constitution in these times, it is the Supreme Court of India. But I am tired of keeping on going to the Supreme Court. I am speaking for myself. I don't think there is any use of going there. I don't have much trust in the Supreme Court of India. Whatever has to happen, will happen." "We told the Supreme Court many times that the voters' names are being wrongly deleted and wrongly included, we argued for months. The evidence is before the public. And the appellate tribunals now say 93% of the voters were wrongly removed. So the Supreme Court must have known. But no relief was given. So I am speaking for myslef, I don't have [faith]" - @KapilSibal says.

Is Delhi preparing for a peaceful protest or a self created national security emergency? Ahead of protests demanding CEC Gyanesh Kumar’s resignation, reports suggest extraordinary measures: • 57 Metro stations facing closure. • Restrictions on trains, buses and entry into Delhi. • Student activists facing preventive detention. • Over 32,000 security personnel reportedly mobilised. • 7,000 CRPF personnel reportedly instructed to carry advanced anti-riot equipment, weapons and ammunition. • Facial recognition surveillance intensified. • Home Minister Amit Shah reportedly cancelling outside engagements to personally monitor the situation. • Enhanced security for the CEC, alongside an aggressive social media campaign defending him.

Santhosh “Ji”, Last week you mocked those “frantically” trying to save shifted and absentee voters. This week, we learn you yourself are “shifted.” Now imagine a construction worker from Kalaburagi in Bengaluru or a nurse from Kerala in Delhi. They don’t have your access, your political machinery or officials on speed dial. For them, one “logical discrepancy” can mean losing wages, running between offices and fighting to protect their vote. So here is the accountability test: When exactly were you unmapped? Why were you marked “shifted”? And if even you cannot get the year of your own unmapping right, what exactly do you expect an ordinary migrant voter with none of your access to do? ಅದನ್ನ ‘ಹೇಳೋದು ಶಾಸ್ತ್ರ, ತಿನ್ನೋದು ಬದನೆಕಾಯಿ’ ಅಂತಾರೆ.

आज नई दिल्ली के श्री विनायक मंदिर में पूजा-अर्चना की। भगवान श्री गणेश से देशभर के अपने परिवारजनों की सुख-समृद्धि और उत्तम स्वास्थ्य की कामना की। विघ्नहर्ता की कृपा से सबका कल्याण हो और देश निरंतर प्रगति के मार्ग पर आगे बढ़ता रहे।
