Brahmo Samaj This brahmo samaj is just an eye wash.I personally like some poems and songs of rabindranath too ,but all Ade because of this music style ( soor) , and that was influenced by bauls. But rabindranath tegor was a pure anti Muslim and many of his writings show that. So a Muslim...

How could he glorify Sati if he was part of the Brahmo Samaj, the very organization which aimed to ban that practice? And Shivaji was a much more complex character than the saffron paint job you see him being portrayed as today. His chief of navy was a Muslim (Daryadarang), his chief of...

We shouldn't be proud in light of the fact that this girl has to stand up against this evil in the first. However, I do commend for her taking action against it and trying to bring a change.

You and I can because we are from that culture and we were raised in those environments so we can see the subtle and not-so-subtle differences. I'm sure East Asians could also tell the difference between their own nationalities, but it would be much more difficult for me and you, and that's not...

Racism is a problem in general for all of South Asia, part of it is self-hatred, you only have to look at the various threads which end up in mudslinging contests of who is really a Dalit or who is darker skinned or who comes from a that was deemed more "dominant"/"Aryan"/"martial" and and all...

Well deserved, I'm glad.

You know what, that was some good banter.

I couldn't tell you exact percentages as I couldn't find any pre-1947 ones, however it is relevant that at least 3 Bengali Muslim majority districts of Karimganj were included in Assam when the partition happened, so assuming majority of the population of these districts stayed, as well as the...

Thank you for being reasonable and mature about this, I respect your honesty.

First of all, there are only 3 Islamic republics in the entire world right now, Iran, Gambia and Pakistan, Bangladesh is not one of them. The fact that India always regards itself as a bastion of both secularism and democracy is in fact more of a reason to question it when you see examples of it...

To be treated as citizens of a secular democracy.

Surprised it wasn't done before.

Very few large scale protests are truly grass roots. In fact, I'm not going to deny there's some truth in what you said Rampal had some extra fervour in its support because it had ties to India, and certain already existing elements chose to jump at the opportunity to create a bigger issue out...

And we all also saw what kind of treatment said protestors received.

As an outsider I can tell you this makes significantly more sense than Caste Based reservations as an idea, at least in the modern day.

I honestly don't know why people have assumed this :lol: no offence to Arefin I like the guy from what I've seen but him and I don't speak in a similar way and our views politically are quite different too.

Why though? They're just sports fans going out to support their team. I always see people on the internet making jokes about the people who are actually attending the games (this is applicable to most sports not just cricket or the Bangladesh team), and it just strikes me as hypocritical. Even...

Have nothing bad to say about any of them, they fought for their freedom and no one can criticize that. Out of all the Pan-Indian/Raj Era freedom fighters though, the one I hold special respect for is Subhas Chandra Bose. A true leader, pragmatic, a man who no one will doubt as a warrior despite...

We are happy to see Sri Lanka doing so well and aspire to do the same. It's not a bad thing if multiple SA countries do well.

is there any link to the full list?
