ANI Podcast with Smita Prakash | EP-3 | Sr Journalist Indrani Bagchi explains India-Canada relations

[@reemasharma992]

Hi smita I am absolutely loving your podcast. I am part of the Australian diaspora and use to do AIRBNB where I met a lot new migrants to Australia. I started a free service educating people especially young girls & women about the Aussie laws , where is the nearest police station which no to dial in emergency and that really helped and spread like a wild fire where everyone was helping one another. Australia has a better stand on lot of issues which Canada doesn’t. Thanking you so much please talk more on the diaspora and will be happy to give you inputs.

Your podcast are more worthy than watching news debate, Out standing questions,guests , no nonsense talk...point to point

[@GauravSareenWingman]

As someone been in Australia for donkey years, I would (if I could) put up massive hoardings in Punjab that the west is NOT the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Having said that, I know for a fact that Hindu Mahasabha, Sai Society, Hindu Swayam Sevak, and every Gurudwara I know of are very active in assisting new migrants to Australia. But, how do you help someone who gets off a plane with a chip on his/her shoulder and wants their new country to bend to their whims and fancies... instead of learning about their new country. In any case, this is a BRILLIANT conversation between Smita and Indrani. This podcast can literally go on for days, and still not scratch the surface of this topic!!!

Sound is very low in rhis podcast Smita ji.

Hi Smita - please do not call Journalists on your show as guest. With due respect, journalists have absolutely no idea of how real world works. The biggest myth believed in media world is that you become an expert on anything/everything by just observing and gossiping about it. Whereas, in reality nothing beats experience - a person who has even couple of years of experience in actually doing something, gains several times more in-depth understanding about the topic than someone gossiping about it for several decades. THIS IS HARSH FACT & its high time that media persons have humility to accept this. Please don't get me wrong, there is immense value of journalists in our society, but they SMEs of mass communication, not the topics they are reporting about.

[@roWon9]

It was a fantastic podcast. Especially because I am here in Canada and getting insights from Indians. Anyway, the one thing I thought the podcast mixed up and therefore did not discuss at length was that the attacks on Indians by Khalistanis are different from attack on Indians (including Sikhs) by Canadians. The victims of most racial attacks are Sikhs because they are easily identifiable due to their Turbans and which is covered extensively in media here. Then the next one is the Khalistani attacks on Hindu places of worship or Indians (any non-Sikh) who take out a car rally on Independence day etc. Because that distinction wasn't made enough, I think the possible solutions were not apt.

[@vikaskhanna8559]

So insightful, Ms Prakash is always extremely graceful and poised in putting forward her POV. Whenever internal politics and vote bank politics are not kept separated from foreign policies the results will always be disturbing and won't foster harmonious relationships.

[@abhijeetawari9371]

I like ANI😍

[@Amuzic_Earth]

The audio recording was great. Crystal clear sound, each of the person's voice in slightly different channels...but did you guys forget to master the sound, at least run a basic compression, the volume is so low.

[@Wiki-iu7pd]

You are best ma'am...it's a great podcast I hve ever seen ..I'm going through alot of podcast but this is soo overpowered and knowledgeable ....our youth need like this podcast ....I'm shame about some peole who used to watch like comedy and all ...for all the people come and watch this podcast and gain your knowledge as much as you can

[@ManishKumar-ni9pm]

Mam my humble suggestion ,improve sound intensity.

[@dgdilipdgdilip2959]

Be it Canada or US , they don’t want india to get stronger in any manner, purely for business reasons. And the government just is calling that bluff.

[@ragwindersingh1354]

Excellent 👍

[@maitrayeeg3197]

Great work Smitha. You bring out the true personality of the guests you invite. I wait to watch it. It also gives an insight into 'whys' of a person. Like Arnab for the aggressive journalism that he does and many more. You cull out the other side of the coin.

[@Geertwilders865]

Very creative of Ani

[@hemasharma2928]

Dear Smitha..m an ardent fan of ur wrk n views..cudya plz wrk on d volume bit..evn AIM sounded so low on ur podcast..only d Assam CM episode + d Suhael one was gud volume wise..Hv watched all episodes..hw abt callin Dr Tharoor n Karan Thapar...was a huge fan of derz once..was..stl wanna hear dm here...

[@anshubedi3425]

Good job. Answered many questions, raised a few more, in one's mind.

[@TheZenith790]

prakash ji is the ultimate ILF

[@pritesh0117]

Wow! Smita, you’re doing a phenomenal job!

[@motivariation3405]

Audio quality was very poor

[@dainikpharmcare]

I love to watch this interview ser

[@UjjainiSingh22]

THe answer is easy. Canada does not act decisively because it wants a weakend India and if the faultlines are to be exploited to weigh down an upcoming power it will use it.

[@be12]

The problem is that too many senior Indian diplomats and journalists have interests in Canada. In some ways, Russia was given a gift when rich Russians were sanctioned in Western countries. We might have to wait for that. But before that, you guys seemed to've missed the main reason Jaishankar said what he said: to get the message to the Indian public. And enough of this crap about "we are not China". That does not address the point.

[@tejas4039]

Could be because of lack of my understanding- didn’t really understand the current situation in Canada and what (if any) steps are taken, how effective those are? If anyone can help my providing a source, it would be much appreciated.

[@dharmani_youtube]

As someone living in Toronto since some time, it pains me to say but the blind hatred towards BJP by liberals in India and them publishing in Western outlets is what is causing Khalistanis to gain dominance again. You don't hear much of pro India pro BJP news in western outlets so western intellectuals sympathise with them. Also the farmers movement was badly handled by BJP despite such an important reform, that kids and relatives of Punjab farmers globally had more reason to think Hindus conspire against them. r/Sikh is a good place to see and learn how the people think.

[@kanikakanika8377]

Those farms were actually not bad most of the protestors didn't even read them and those mediaters just used farmers

[@kanikakanika8377]

Why weren't farmers from rest of the Indian states didn't protest

[@kanikakanika8377]

Farmers were from haryana and Western up too they produce too much grains than Punjab as Punjab's water resources are getting low then why they thought only punjab farmers were there

[@kanikakanika8377]

Congress government in 2004 and 2007-2008 proposed these amendments in the farm laws for local mandis expansion and free them from middleman they were in congress manifesto but as usual those cowards dhongis chors supported farmers

[@kanikakanika8377]

Those bloody NRI's funding khalistan separatist groups will they come back leaving their comfy life to build a new nation

[@Thakurrajesh680]

Ek baar khud bhi sun liya karo apna podcast .. so that u can kno video/audio quality

[@AbhishekKumar-sz9fl]

Audio is very bad

[@krupadave1975]

Forget Indian administration or Canada administration, what about Indian embassy's attitude towards its own people?

[@Amuzic_Earth]

It is always wonderful getting exposed to the insights when two veterans speak.

[@Bulla9]

Audio is so bad

[@santzvet]

Purely Alaskan matter🙏

[@vivekpmc1992]

it depends on country & it’s capabilities you are dealing with, I remember 2 or 3 yrs back , Canada interfered in internal matters of Saudi who responded very strongly. Saudi called all of it’s citizens immediately and closed all relations, what was Canadian response? Kneeled down and seek pardon. In case of India , Canada understands that we are third world nation & rather than India Canada can punish/ cause unrest as has been doing ( musa wala Or Kisan aandolan sponsorship). We are different, we can’t do that and we shouldn’t do ether , they knows that . We want to be good boy , but who in the world are considered good ? India Or Canada??

[@androidsevenstein49]

May be

[@camelkarma]

Improve your English. Very poor grammar. Very difficult to understand what you are trying to say.

Security is non negotiable......what would you do with all wealth if we can't protect, defend and secure.

[@MrVishwanna]

I notice that the cookies are out of reach of smitha Prakash!!!

[@a.d.7888]

Why does the anchor keep on disturbing everytime, this is podcast not INTERVIEW

[@atul4349]

Smita you should restart Ghoomta Aaina on you tube

[@kunalseth6437]

🕉️

[@dgdilipdgdilip2959]

Smita, it’s not muscular. Modiji has just returned the coin back! Call it bold, call it direct. But not mascular as that means using force for make someone agree

[@meet7520]

Is she at a loss of words or loss of ideas sometimes she is tongue tied

[@dgdilipdgdilip2959]

Smita, you are making too much of vegetarian or otherwise. The simple thing is the Canadian and American see the change in Indians. And they can’t digest it so easily. Rest all is humbug!

[@rishiraaj.580]

CANADA - Attraction For Sikhs , Punjabis. 😐

[@anirudhatakle306]

Justin Tredeau is relying on Muslim and Khalistani Votes . India needs to take action against this government. They need to drive more students to other countries friendly to India . Canada makes money from Indian Student’s its a huge impact. 😅

[@craumm]

So Podcast is more like a discussion rather than a Interview.

[@SanjTrip-Topic]

CANADA JUST DECLARED NOVEMBER AS HINDU HERITAGE MONTH - DO YOU THINK THEY WILL USE IT TO FURTHER DIVIDE HINDUS

[@DeepakKumar-xr3oh]

And china doesn't get investment from Canada !🤨

[@SKY98760]

When it comes from the MEA, either side, they know about it. Lets not be naive.

[@rishiraaj.580]

[@mahadevanv4028]

You r a much greater person than her

[@SanjaySharma-jv9od]

Cant stand a person who is checking her phone while talking about critical topic. Good luck to this journalist 👎🏽

[@rohitgodani4278]

The moderator was interviewing less and more ranting more. Please allow your guests to speak more.

[@suhaganbhootni]

There a context to every podcast, if interviewee and interviewer are from same background one should expect more discussion .... if she was politician then things would be different , besides they might be good friends as well. so try to understand the context and try not generalize all podcast as same

[@miku1408]

Pure vegetarian is casteist according to me. I don’t use that term anymore.

[@Inndjkaawed2922]

What a load of crap

[@pillalam]

Lol why is that so....

[@camelkarma]

Lol. Go to Nigeria.

[@SamvedIyer]

I am glad that yours is a subjective opinion; that your comment has no pretensions of objectivity. Since caste is the very last thing that would ever occur to us regular people while using the phrase "pure vegetarian", we would gladly continue to use it without the slightest of scruple ailing our conscience.

[@miku1408]

@@SamvedIyer Mr Iyer, with all due respect, it is not occuring to you because you have not faced caste based discrimination as you belong to the upper caste. The word “pure” clearly signals a kind of moral superiority based on the choice of diet.
