There is no doubt that we are far away from the self-evident concepts of Sirius binary system (Samawaati wal-Arz), natural magnetism (Nuurun Alaa Nuur), upright rectangular universe (end of proof), immovable hexagonal world (asterisk), appearing pentagonal earth (star operator), three ascending stairs, Upright-West region of the appointed kaba, straight Middle-East region of Eartha 3D, four Galilean moons, visual binaries, four basic forces, four cardinal directions, nine planets as nine eye opening evidences, equal and opposite stages of journey of the manifested signs and two clear proofs of natural magnetic directions, and the like due to historically prevailing learning gaps objectively in the reading materials of basic sciences, natural sciences, and social sciences spoiling sanctity of education, significance of scientific certainty, and existential import of legitimacy as well as violating first generation— natural & environmental rights, second generation—essential & fundamental rights and social & cultural rights, third generation—un-interfering & inviolable rights and four foundational solidarity rights in Islam, and uncompromising constitutional rights of our fresh generation. Publication of the ‘The War of Authenticity’ along with Significant Crucial Instances is an experimentum crucis (crucial experiment) before responsible chairs, legitimate authorities, religious scholars, scientists, philosophers, astronomers, astrophysicists, so-called mystics, sufis, intelligent bureaus, crime detectives, diplomats, lawyers, judges, writers, publishers, journalists, media persons, political leaders, so-called imams, social reformers, and mankind in general with a view to manifest the existential imports of the searched out “equal and opposite” findings of an illiterate Indian Banii-Israa-iil (an ordinary Indian Muslim) in each and every aspect of human persons living in societies as well as three core normative teachings of Bhagvat Gita, namely, (1) do what is right, (2) choose what is good, and (3) sticking to what is truth. Failure or success to recognize and confirm the searched out “equal and opposite” findings of an ordinary Hindustani will provide significant crucial instances on the basis of which we can distinguish possessors of balanced good sense (innate idea of Rene Descartes) from cursed human persons of Peter Singer (tabula rasa of John Locke) removing all doubts.

My understanding of this ferocious, restless, relentless metropolis is that each of us who lives in this city carries a unique, if virtual, Delhi inside our heads.' Independence, four million refugees from Pakistan and the overwhelming presence of visible and invisible power that flows from New Delhi being the capital have transformed it from the unruffled imperial town it once was to the fearsome metropolis it is today. And yet, says Ranjana Sengupta, this largely unloved city deserves to be loved. Delhi is home to the most diverse population of any city in the country. The unceasing influx of migrants has unleashed new urban architectures of opulence and deprivation. Different groups have set up their own, different universes, and these manage to coexist, not unhappily. And somewhere between the futurist Gurgaon skyline and the proliferating slums, alongside the march of the Metro and the refurbishment of Khan Market, lie Delhi's unsung sagas—the memories, the passions and the unspoken expectation that the city will change lives. Sengupta illustrates how Delhi is essentially the creation of refugees of all kinds, from those fleeing plundered homes within and across the border to the adventurers who have flocked to the city for the greater opportunities of employment or simply to be close to the hub of political power. The newer Delhi, she says, in its turn gained from the accumulated and diverse talent and capital it acquired from these people, although haphazard development poses a great danger to it. Delhi Metropolitan tracks the changes from the time 'going to CP' was almost the only leisure activity for the middle class, looks at the subtle reinventions of government colonies and the shining new suburbs, and inspects the footprints of 'Punjabification'. Have all these actually managed to colonize this extravagant, indefinable and unlikely city? In a work of immense detail, at once informed and entertaining, Ranjana Sengupta proffers an answer.

The two volumes of Anti-natural Framework & Its Consequences represent the ‘self-surrender’ of an Akbari-Jihadist before the concerned authorities of the entire world. The concerned authorities are pragmatically requested to provide the Akbari-Jihadist the capital punishment or the death sentence, at an appointed time at a particular place on earth. The book attempts to make a connection between universally accepted scientific principles and their Islamic counterparts. A few examples of the same are: Two Zones [Eastern Daylight Time Zone and Western Daylight Time Zone or Mashriq and Magrib]; Periodic Motion of the commonly perceivable White Moon of the West Zone and Periodic Motion of the commonly perceivable White Moon of the East Zone [Newton’s Visual Binaries or Two-fold Mercy or Equal & Opposite Uranus or Equal & Opposite Muzzammil or Twain]; and much more.
