‘Swatantrya Veer Savarkar’ review: Biopic projects Hindutva ideologue as a neglected hero of history
scroll.in/reel/1065468/swatantrya-veer-savarkar-review-biopic-projects-hindutva-ideologue-as-a-neglected-hero-of-history
Quick Glance: Controversial Biography of Swatantrya Veer Savarkar
- The film portrays Savarkar as the neglected hero of history, projecting him as a Hindutva ideologue who aimed to advance Indian independence early.
- Criticism is directed towards the portrayal of Gandhi as stubborn, superficial, and lenient towards the British, while Savarkar is depicted as visionary and extreme.
- The biography focuses on bolstering Savarkar's image and emphasizing his legacy, while casting Gandhi and the Congress party in a negative light.
- Viewed as high-value propaganda, the film links Savarkar's simplified Hindutva beliefs to current political issues.

reporters-collective.in/trc/vimal-patnis-company-donates-to-political-parties
Quick Glance: Vimal Patni's Company's Political Donations
- A name on the electoral bond donors' list has resurrected the specter of the Sohrabuddin Shaikh encounter case.
- One of the donors, Wonder Cement, is owned by Vimal Patni, an accused in the sensational encounter case involving top BJP politicians and police officers from Gujarat and Rajasthan, including Amit Shah. All accused were acquitted in different trial stages.
- Wonder Cement from Udaipur, which made profits of nearly Rs 250 crore in FY23, donated Rs 20 crore via electoral bonds, while four Patni family members collectively contributed Rs 8 crore to parties.
- In addition to companies, the fine print of the now-defunct electoral fundraising scheme introduced by the Modi government allowed various entities, including individuals, groups, NGOs, trusts, and HUF units, to make donations.
