Liberals Think Akshaya Tritiya Is Not A Well Known Hindu Festival & Is Invented To Counter Eid
[ad_1]
On April 22, Muslims worldwide celebrated Eid, while at the same time, Hindus and Jains in India and beyond commemorated the auspicious occasion of Akshaya Tritiya.
Despite the fact that both celebrations were observed by people of different religions, members of the respective groups perform them with tremendous passion and excitement.
Akshaya Tritiya is a Hindu festival celebrated on the third ‘Tithi’ or lunar day of the bright half of Vaishakha month. On the other hand, Eid is an important Islamic festival that marks the end of Ramadan, the month of fasting. Eid-ul-Fitr, also known as the “Festival of Breaking the Fast,” is celebrated with prayers, feasting, and giving alms to the poor.
Despite the differences in their cultural and religious roots, both festivals are celebrated with great enthusiasm and joy by people of their respective communities. They provide an opportunity for people to come together, share their happiness, and create lasting memories with their loved ones.
In recent years, people are trying to create rifts between the people by creating differences between the festivals
While one side asks people not to greet “Eid Mubarak,” others go one step ahead by dismissing Akshaya Tritiya.
Indian liberals think that Hindus invented Akshaya Tritiya just to make fun of Muslims. Despite the fact that there are several tales and auspicious festivals associated with this day, Indian liberals have crossed limits. They are giving various absurd statements to dismiss Akshaya Tritiya.
Have a look at some of the tweets
Is not Akshaya Trithiya the festival where the good , rich upper country folks buy glitter .
Back home, nobody wished us and we did not wish either.
Now, Bhaktgan want to counter Eid with Akshaya trithiya!
Enthu cheyyam!!

How tf is he even comparing Eid with Akshaya Tritiya? 😂 A day for Hindus to chase gold? It should have been about rice but we don’t care about rice.
And I’ve literally never heard of Parshuram Janmotsav. 😭 https://t.co/l7ha4MGpL1— Vaan (inactive era) (@SavageLeeCooper) April 23, 2023
I swear to God this Akshaya tritiya is a made up festival, meant to coincide with Eid to make Hindus also buy more gold. I had never heard of it even a decade ago

A school friend wished me Akshay Tritiya yesterday, I wished him back alongwith wishing him Eid Mubarak. Still waiting for the response.
The hate has even ruined the friendships post 2014.

While liberals are dismissing Akshaya Tritiya without giving other thoughts, they don’t know the importance of Akshaya Tritiya
Akshaya Tritiya, also known as Akti or Akha Teej, marked a special occasion for Hindus and Jains worldwide. This annual festival is celebrated on the third ‘Tithi’ or lunar day of the bright half of Vaishakha month when the sun and moon are believed to be most auspicious in the sky. The Sanskrit word “Akshaya” means imperishable, and the festival is observed with great reverence.
Hindus commemorate this day as the birthday or Janmotsav of Bhagwan Parshuram, the sixth incarnation of Bhagwan Vishnu and also one of the Chiranjivis from Hindu mythology. It is also believed that Bhagwan Ganesha began writing the epic Mahabharata, narrated by Rishi Vyasa, on this day. To purchase gold on Akshaya Tritiya is considered to be auspicious.
Hindu mythology has a lot of tales connected to this day. For instance, it is said that Lord Krishna satisfied the Pandavas’ hunger during their exile by using the “Akshaya Patra,” a food container that never runs out of food. Another story claims that during the Akshaya Tritiya, Sudama and Krishna met in Dwarka.
Treta Yuga, an important era in Hindu mythology, is said to have begun on this day. According to belief, the holy river Ganga descended to Earth on Akshaya Tritiya, making this day also known as Gangavatran.
Jains also observe Akshaya Tritiya, celebrating the birth of the first Tirthankara, Rishabhadeva, on this day
Jainism followers believe that performing good deeds on this day will bring eternal success and happiness. Jains typically observe a fast on this day.
Despite the various tales and the festival’s good fortune, some people have a different viewpoint. Some people think that Hindus created Parshuram Janmotsav and Akshaya Tritiya solely to disparage Muslims. However, this assertion lacks a factual foundation and is unsupported by data.
Nonetheless, all we need to do is to celebrate every festival with the same energy. The fact that people from all religions and civilizations congregate to celebrate their customs and beliefs during these festivals is a reflection of India’s diverse and inclusive spirit. The celebration of these festivals on the same day is a reminder of the importance of harmony and unity in a diverse society.

Daylight robbery is not quite usual but it does not strike out the fact that it is highly possible. Many a time cases as such have surfaced online where normal people were robbed in broad daylight. Recently, the passengers in a taxi got robbed inside the Pragati Maidan tunnel in Delhi on Saturday afternoon.
Four men rob taxi passengers at gunpoint in broad daylight and here is what Delhi Police have to say
On Saturday, a delivery agent and his associate were robbed at gunpoint by a group of unknown assailants, stealing around Rs 1.5 to Rs 2 lakh cash from them. In spite of having 16 security guards in the Pragati Tunnel, there were no CCTV cameras installed. Although the Public Works Department assured that cameras are installed, they did not confirm their operational conditions.
The victims made a complaint at Tilak Marg police station later in the evening. The Pragati tunnel is a 1.5 km tunnel that connects New Delhi with Sarai Kale Khan and Noida. The police said that following the complaint made by the victims, a case has been filed under Sections 397 IPC which covers robbery, or dacoity with an attempt to cause death or grievous hurt and 34 (common intention).
The Deputy Commissioner of Police, Pranav Tayal, has shared that the complainant can be identified as Patel Sajan Kumar and his associate Jigar Patel. Patel Sajan works as a delivery agent for a private firm in Chandni Chow and has informed the police that he and Jigar were going to Gurugram to deliver the cash to a client.
As per the registered complaint, the two of them hired an Ola cab from near Red Fort. As soon as the cab entered the Pragati Maidan tunnel from Ring Road, four assailants on two motorcycles surrounded their cab and robbed the cash off them keeping them at gunpoint.
While the police are looking into the matter, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal is not satisfied with the deterioration of public safety needs
As soon as the CCTV footage surfaced, Arvind Kejriwal lashed out at Lieutenant Governor Vinai Kumar Saxena and demanded his resignation from the post.
Kejriwal took to Twitter to share the footage and wrote,
“If Central govt is unable to make Delhi safe, hand it over to us. We will show u how to make a city safe for its citizens”
LG shud resign. Make way for someone who can provide safety n security to the people of Delhi.
If Central govt is unable to make Delhi safe, hand it over to us. We will show u how to make a city safe for its citizens. https://t.co/oPtqnAWlgJ

Delhi Minister Atishi also took to Twitter and slammed the incompetency of the Lieutenant Governor. She tweeted,
LG साहब: अगर आपको @ArvindKejriwal के कामों का क्रेडिट लेने से फ़ुरसत मिले तो कभी अपनी संवैधानिक ज़िम्मेदारी पर भी ध्यान दीजिए। दिल्ली वालों को सुरक्षा देना आपका काम है। और अब दिन दहाड़े दिल्ली में चोरी, डकैती और क़त्ल की वारदातें हो रही हैं। या तो आप सुरक्षा की ज़िम्मेदारी लीजिए,… https://t.co/RG4c9ozWnW

Coming across train service complaints on social media is nothing new. Very often than not we find passengers complaining about bland food or bugs in the cooked food provided to them. Quite recently someone took to Twitter regarding a complaint where they found plastic in the railway food. But the latest thing that happened has actually stunned everyone when a video of the roof of a passenger coach train surfaced online.
Indian Railways slammed over water leakage in AC coach
Netizens have harshly criticized the poor management and maintenance of the train coaches after a surprising video surfaced online. Recently, a video went viral on social media platforms in which it can be clearly seen rainwater seeping in through the roof of the 2-tier AC coach of the Avantika Express. The Congress party also reshared the video uploaded by a passenger and took to Twitter to play the blame game immediately.
The tweet said,
“काश खोखले प्रचार की जगह रेलवे के लिए कुछ काम किया होता। झंडी दिखाने वाले रेल मंत्री अभी विदेश में हैं, नाम वाले रेल मंत्री ध्यान दें। (Wish some actual work would have been done for the Railways in place of empty propaganda. The railway minister who shows the flag is currently abroad, the named railway minister should pay attention)”

It was a jab at the Prime Minister, Narendra Modi, who recently flagged off 11 Vande Bharat Express, the Railways’ newest hi-tech train.

The Western Railway took to Twitter to respond to that tweet hours later and stated that all the coaches of the Avantika Express train were properly checked.
The tweet read,
“All coaches of Avantika Exp have been checked thoroughly & issue has been attended to promptly. The train has commenced its return journey & there are no such issues now. Passenger convenience is of utmost priority & WR leaves no stone unturned to resolve passengers’ grievances”
