"Hima " means snow and "alaya" means abode or residence. The conjoined word " Himalaya" means therefore the abode of snow which it is!

Himalaya is a range of mountain as you may know....if you want to know the meaning of that word then Himalaya can be broken into two words Hima and Alaya....Him means snow and alaya in sanskrit means home...so...the home of snow is Himalaya..it may be called so because you can find snow throughout the year in the himalayas...

Whatever the meaning of 'Hindutwa' be - now we see that the aspirant for Prime minister had openly accused his former leader (Vajapee) of not being democratic - had took major decision without consultation of the home minister - and again leaders accuse each other now after enjoying power - is this the difference in this party ? Party's agenda is to spread hatred in name of 'Hindutwa' and loot as much they can.
