Good Treatment to Swami, appreciated...ha...ha..ha............
When the mind is empty about the knowledge of the CREATOR , YOU all will find people like SWAMY & their fans spread the hatred & support the EVIL without the knowledge of accountability of the DEEDS with the Creator. When we live in FALSE ideology - we tend to do INJUSTICE to the innocent and OPPRESS them...
Dear Swami and his fans should learn more about the CREATOR of all that exists.. who created the SKY without any Hole in it.. Please look up the SKY, try to find a whole .. LOOK Again try to find a hole... and then PONDER and think on the creation... The CREATOR will guide those who Ponder on his verses...
QURAN asks human to think & PONDER on the verses of the QURAN. and implement and research with the LIFE which ALLAH has given us... Many Scientist have already proven & accepted the word of ALLAH and with their deep study they are PROVING its the word of GOD which is FAR FROM IMPERFECT -- Praise be to ALLAH alone who created the heavens and earth...
Subbu Swamy...Deserves These kind of welcome...Don't Throw good tomatos.Throw only waste. Otherwise he will catch & cook it.
Why swami never tell about vyapam scam, chiikki scam, food scam, lalit modi scam? He only shows at others. First let him look into his own party memebers
An insult to rotten eggs and tomatoes. Swamy need stonewash.
indian Drama Leader,
FreeSpeech is the private property of Marxists on JNU campus -- not open for Ramdev or Subramanian Swamy.
Unlike Kanaiyah.....he survived.
