‘This book is not just Mohan and Muhammad. It's Mohan, Muhammad, and Meghnad,’ said Kapish Mehra, managing director, Rupa Publications at the launch event on Wednesday.
Earlier this year, people had condemned the removal of Jinnah’s portraits from Independence Day campaigns. PTI had called it a ‘direct attack on the foundation of Pakistan’.
Ambedkar regarded both Gandhi and Jinnah as suffering from ‘colossal egotism’, who made Indian politics a matter of their ‘personal quarrel’ and brought it to a standstill.
On Muhammad Ali Jinnah’s 148th birth anniversary, a look at how teenage years in London took him to Lincoln’s Inn, Shakespeare, and Savile Row—and inspired new ambitions.
Arif Zakaria, who plays Jinnah in Freedom At Midnight, makes it a point to stumble over the Urdu speech scenes. After all, Jinnah was not comfortable with the language.
Analysts, however, feel commemoration of Jinnah's 76th death anniversary was a one-off, but admit that New Delhi and Dhaka will have to take calculated steps going forward.
Till Hasina’s ouster in August this year, an event observing Jinnah’s death anniversary and public proclamations praising him would have been unthinkable.
Industry says manufacturers have 2-4 weeks of buffer stocks, but prolonged disruption could push up shortage risks, especially of consumables like IV and syringes.
French newspaper La Tribune earlier last week indicated that UAE withdrew from deal to fund EUR 3.5 billion. India is looking to order 114 new Rafales, which could include the F5.
China patiently invested capital, skill and technology in coal gasification. Unlike it, we won’t move from words to action. As crude prices decline, we lose interest.
We have become the victims of Doomscrolling & a soft target for lashing out on our Ulemas. The writer of this article (Ibn Khaldun Bharati) with a vicious intent, strategically blamed community’s development entirely on Ulema, who are not uprightly responsible.
The hard reality is progressive Muslim families didn’t bothered about the fellow brethren when they had lavish lives. Even now, they are just sharing concern but are not coming forward to do something which requires huge financial assistance to take-on the battle of falsehood.
Also, many elite Muslims were never cared about the community, married non-Muslims (Pataudis, Khans of Bollywood, many more). Their entire lineage were diluted & their off-springs went astray.
In this article, the writer cunningly portrayed two leaders should be looked as the role models of the Muslim community, one being MC Chagla (a Jurist), who belonged to Ismaili Khoja community and was mostly agnostic. Second, Hamid Dalwai, an atheist & leftist who was the founder of ‘Muslim Satyashodhak Mandal’, which aims to ‘reform’ the Muslim community.
The conclusion of this article gaslight the actions of NaMo & the writer is fraudulently trying to depict him as a Messiah for Muslims in disguise. Please don’t fall prey to such fitnas who are trying to create the fault lines within the Muslim community by hiding behind a pen name.
It’s preposterous to introduce author as an student islam and etc. Firstly, his article reflects, he doesn’t know even the tenets of islam leave aside that he knows history. He has suggested muslims to be followers of so called reformists, everyone knows who they belong to. All distorted facts in support of his narrative. As far as sir sayed is concerned, if the author is a scholar which he claims to be, then every submitted thesis is not accepted. So sir syed attempt is same in line of rejected thesis. And unfortunately everyone who demean islam is praised and hailed.
Let him first get proper syllabus of islam.
First of all, I just discovered how meaningful your sobriquet is. Ibn Khaldun Bharati means “ever the son of Bharat”, and being a reader of your columns since a while, I have no doubt that you are one of Bharat Mata’s most logical, sensible, and progressive children. Given the depth of your ideas and thoughts, you are the leader that the community needs, that the country needs. It is sad that you have to express your ideas under the sobriquet though, our freedom of expression allows everyone to express their ideas irrespective of how controversial they might be. Why are you anonymous? As a secular Hindu, I would love to see you emerge as the voice of sanity from the Muslim community.
If logical, progressive Muslims like yourself are scared to write under your real name for fear of being persecuted or killed, then sorry to say that all hope is lost, and wish the community all the best.
I always wonder why educated muslims and leftist intellectuals don’t want poor muslim children to get standard education, rather they advocate for religious schooling.

Dear Ibn Khaldun Bharati,
