Millions of Indians saw NASA astronaut Sunita Williams and three other passengers landing on Earth this morning. Sunita and her partner Buch Wilmore landed at the sea away from the US Florida coast with two other passengers from Dragon X Capsule after being stranded at 9 months international space station. Sunita and Buch went to the space center for 8 days, but could not return to Earth for 9 months due to a malfunction in the Boeing capsule. President Draupadi Mooreu welcomed Sunita on the return of Sunita by saying ‘daughter of India’. Prime Minister Narendra Modi described Sunita as ‘Icon and Trailblazer’ and praised her courage and life. A day before the return, Modi wrote a letter to Sunita Williams in which he said that ‘even though you are thousands of miles away, but you are close to our hearts’. In Jhulasan village of Mahesana district of Gujarat, people celebrated Sunita’s return by playing drums and running firecrackers. Those few moments were quite tense when entering the Earth’s atmosphere, when the dragon capsules were reduced to a speed of 28,800 kmph to a temperature of 1,600 ° C. The four astronauts sitting inside due to the heat on the capsule returned safely and landed in the ocean away from the Florida coast with the help of parachutes. All were immediately taken to Johnson Space Center, Houston, where their health will be monitored as per the rules, because the long -term weightlessness in space affects body parts. Sunita Williams has been a captain in the US Navy. His father Deepak Pandya is Gujarati.
Aurangzeb: Why did you do glory?
Nagpur police have arrested Faheem Shamim Khan, the mastermind of Monday’s violence. He is a local leader of the Minorities Democratic Party and gave an inflammatory speech in front of a fierce mob on Monday night after which there were incidents of arson and stone pelting. So far more than 50 people have been arrested and police officials are investigating CCTV footage and social media posts to detect other people involved in the conspiracy. Maharashtra CM Devendra Fadnavis and Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde have said that it is part of a well thought out conspiracy. So far curfew is applicable in 10 police station areas of Nagpur. The violence in Nagpur is condemnable. Riot, arson, police attack cannot be tolerated under any circumstances. This entire case needs to be seen in a percective. First of all, Abu Azmi glorified Aurangzeb and provoked emotions. Then Nitesh Rane made rhetoric and poured ghee in the fire. Meanwhile, the film Chhava, which described the valor saga of Sambhaji Maharaj, was released. It also affected the heartbeat of the people. After this, many Muslim organizations called the entire episode an anti -Muslim campaign, describing Aurangzeb as a hero, he was presented as justice emperor. Then the people of Bajrang Dal and Vishwa Hindu Parishad jumped into the middle. He lit a symbolic tomb. This gave excuse to Muslim leaders. The rumor of burning the rectangle was spread with complete planning. The matter got out of control with them. Flames erupted in Nagpur, which always remained calm. Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis acted wisely in this matter. On the one hand, he said that Aurangzeb’s grave is a protected monument of ASI, it cannot be broken. On the other hand, he said that no one can be allowed to glorify Aurangzeb. I think if the whole matter was seen from this perspective, then neither emotions would erupt nor fire. Now once again Hindu and Muslim organizations should listen to the Chief Minister and calm the matter here.
Sambhal Neja Fair: What is the need to stop?
In Sambhal, the administration has refused to allow the Neja fair this year. This causes resentment among Muslim organizations. The administration has made it clear that no fair will be allowed in memory of a robber and killer. Neja fair is held every year in Sambhal after Holi. The religious city Neja Committee organizes this fair in memory of Syed Salar Masood Ghazi. Masood Ghazi was the nephew of Mahmud Ghaznavi, his commander. Mahmud Ghaznavi looted the Somnath temple, slaughtered. Masood Ghazi also looted fiercely in India, massacred Hindus, so Hindu organizations have opposed the Neja fair to be held in memory of Masood. The Hindus of Sambhal have welcomed the decision of the administration. Samajwadi Party President Akhilesh Yadav said that Yogi Adityanath praises the Mahakumbh Mela everyday but he has objected to the fair of Muslims. Akhilesh said that the BJP government raises such a dispute so that people do not pay attention to real issues. The case of Sambhal is also similar to the issue of Aurangzeb in Maharashtra. Interestingly, the leaders of Samajwadi Party are associated with both. Abu Azmi praised Aurangzeb as justice. Here Samajwadi Party leaders advocated a fair in memory of Mahmud Ghaznavi’s commander. And this matter became of Hindu and Muslim. Muslims say that this fair has been held for many years. Hindus say, as much as the robbers and killers were to be glorified, it should now be closed. Akhilesh Yadav, the remaining cancer, compared this fair to Mahakumbh. I think Aurangzeb and Ghaznavi should not look from the point of view of Hindu-Muslims. The one who looted the country cannot belong to anyone. Who would want to remember the one who broke the temples in our country? All the problems have arisen only by glorifying such people. Rumors spread from such things, emotions erupt. That is why history should be understood, inheritance of heritage and no one should glorify those who rob the country. (Rajat Sharma)
