India and the World with Shashi Tharoor - Conversations with History

[@reidwhitton6248]

Just finished the old interview from 1999 which is wonderful! Glad to find this one. Kudos to Harry Kreisler for his 40 years of work at UC Berkeley and for all of these great conversations. They are a treasure to be preserved for audiences of today and tomorrow.

[@Blueworm17]

An orator of very high caliber

[@pravesh4056]

Indian legend ❤️❤️

[@hassanrajput9576]

Nothing doubt in it

[@Savware]

Dr. Shashi Tharoor, MP ever insightful talks delivered to an almost musical rhythm inspire me. What an awesome orator with an impressive repertoire of feathers to his cap!

[@sheilazulfiqarahmed260]

If having a good heart is not a disqualifier for being the Chief Executive of a country from the perspective of realpolitik then Dr Tharoor has all the abilities to be India's PM.

[@arshjoshi7772]

He is as hard as modi when it comes to Pakistan

[@ibafaisalmehdi]

What a powerful orator Shashi Tharoor is. Good interview.

[@katafoocat1938]

What an knowledgeable and insightful Son of India Mr.Shashi Tharoor is. i can listen to this beloved brother all the time as we all learn so much from his wide and varied background. As someone coming from and East Indian background, I am truly proud of this Son of the Land of my Ancestors.

[@imsayraj]

Mr Shashi Tharoor should be India's next External Affairs Minister which is overshadowed by PMO in current government!! He should be in top 5 person in Congress including Mani Shankar Aiyyar!!

Seraj Alam Dr Shashi Tharoor. He has a PhD.

[@vikkym9380]

People like Shashi should lead India.

[@rajanair6]

after Swami Vivekanand Mr.Tharoor has inspired by global because of his speech. He should be well recognised by the Govt., regarding all foreign affairs.

Jaya Lakshmi Dr. Tharoor

+Jaya Lakshmi Vivekanand sucked.

[@indianmilitary]

Mindd Itt Yeah, vivekananda did not murder his wife and tried to hide it. Yeah, for morons like you vivekananda sucked.

Jaya Lakshmi Articulate does not mean perceptive. Comparing this pseudo (sashi) with a karma yogi Vivekananda is like comparing sewage water with theertham (the liquid we get after deity worship in temples)

Shashi Tharoor is an intellectual of unparalleled qualities. He is the right person to become PM of India.

[@shishirjirge]

He is very thorough with the things he says . Amazing conversation. His use of language is great

[@rsetz]

Favourite Indian politician

[@HarisankarJayakumar]

Wow!! "Elephant do can dance with the dragon". Beautiful words and overall an amazing talk.

[@jumjum55]

this guy need to come out of shadow of goons of Sonia and Rahul. He is wasting his intelligent for this pair of mother and son

[@eshsundar8476]

+Ghanashyam Patel ... slow but steady you'll get to know that there are far lesser goons in congress. Tell me some people in BJP who are not goons, who are self proclaimed patriots and hinduism promoters ( they have created more sham than good ) If you want choose between worse and bad - I choose bad, you have your decision

[@oranjizer]

+Esh Sundar You are the worst kind of debater.... the topic is "Shashi and sonia" not BJP... Ill give you an example what you are like... someone says "Apples are Red" you start arguing that "oranges are orange" WTF did his comment have anything to do with BJP? BTW: Congress actually has more goons than BJP atleast at a level that hurts the country as a whole. Like trying to elect Rahul Gandhi as PM. LOL you claim BJP as worse? HA HA nice joke. I rather choose the bad which is BJP than choose the WORST which is Sonia run congress. Congress alone isnt that worse.. Do you know what people laugh about India? Dynastic politics and corruption... which is what beloved Sonia has been doing, ofcourse corruption exists in both parties but not the former. Im really surprised that you support Sonia.

[@eshsundar8476]

Haha, You started pointing me out in your initial part of your comment, and exposed yourself later. I just replied Mr Patel with my opinion. There are only two national parties bro, and you need to relax before drawing inferences that only expose you. You are far cry from a debate. Open up see both sides, collect input on palpable results and then debate.Else, they will emotionally hijack you and laugh out of their asses behind you. If you comment back without applying what you just read, I'll accept that I'm a worst debater :-)

[@jumjum55]

Esh, I have known Congress for last 50 years. Indira Gandhi had already killed the Old Congress. The current Congress was known as Congress-I (Indira). Since it's birth back in late sixties, very few good people in it. Rest of them had to work as rubber stamps including Rastrapati VV Giri.. Thus hàd opened a door for current situation, and you can see how myawati, Lalu, mulayam Singh have exploited the system. What we need is some good politicians who care for people of India.

[@oranjizer]

Esh Sundar lol, i was 100% correct that you will reply negatively to my comment which was already "open".. its fair to say that a thief will never accept his mistake so i cant help you with that. The proof lies clearly in the way you support Sonia, who has been running dynastic politics and you also cannot see through why they wanted Rahul Gandhi as PM, oh wait you must support Rahul too? or you want priyanka to become PM next? Can i make such assumptions? LOL, you also didnt realize that i said congress alone isnt bad except for Sonia. So it went over your head? as expected. lol FINALLY you clearly have no reply as to how you took the topic towards BJP when the OP didnt even mention BJP. Care to agree you were wrong? Care to agree you got exposed there? I can comment on both parties because you have already brought it up, unlike your logic.... A: Apples are red You: no no, Oranges are orange LMFAO. Talk about apples or show your prejudice, you clearly showed your prejudice.

Shashi Tharoor, is certainlythe most eligible PM nominee. With excellent credentials and wits he is the prime candidate India should vote for. Cheers Shashi!!

interesting talk, full of informative content. Dr Tharror is indeed great statesman of our time.

[@kurianisaacp2121]

It is very interesting and informative for the new generation to know various aspects of western thoughts as well as the Indian philosophy. the cultural variations and the economic positions of various groupings as and the activities between people and nations taking into account of the knowledge and experience coupled with expertise of Mr Shashi Tharoor , who was reelected for the second time from Thiruvananthapuram, Capital of Kerala state of Democratic India.Hope the listeners will get some idea about the developing India, who could send the satellite to to the mars with first attempt , which no other country could achieve this in first attempt.

A Diplomat and politician par excellence

[@shivamgarg529]

What I like specifically about this guy, besides all other qualities he has, is the way he represents India to the outside world, be it America, UK, Pakistan, so and so forth. He strongly points out where and how India is superior to other nations, unlike BJP or Modi who always looks like an underdog in front of other world political leaders.

[@EunusRex]

Inferiority complex is an indispensable part of the Sanghi psyche.

[@asharamnagwanshi1965]

Mr shashi Tharoor you are prime minister material.

[@hassanrajput9576]

Percipient, perspicacious and trenchant expressor.

[@anuparavind609]

Thus I feel countries who deserve should be fairly given their position....start with selecting two big developing countries from each continent....so that those not showing competence feel the urge naturally and with sporting spirit....this also brings into point less amount of money spend on defence ultimately to harm our own human kind....and direct it toward research toward health and increasing longevity thus making life fulfilling

People need to work for nation not worship individual/family. We need intelligent and patriotic politicians and not pappus,lalus and hijaras.

hilarious how the host mispronounces Indian names

[@Shahjiglobal]

Mr Tharoor is influential speaker but he only speaks from a hindu's perspective. he has to look the picture in broader way. the fact that india wants to dominate in the area by looking down at other countries of the area. Why Indians have so much hate in the back of their minds for their neighbour countries. If india claims they want to stand among developed countries of the world they will have to live with peace and have to have good relations with their neighbours. why it is very difficult for india to realize that they are not going to get anywhere with their hearts full of hate for others.

[@PurushNahiMahaPurush]

I don't think most Indians hate their Neighbours except maybe Pakistan. Many people that I've met genuinely have no problems with them and a lot are quite indifferent about them. Heck, these days, people are even settling down on Pakistan because internet has brought close actual people from the two countries and they understand that people living there are the same as people living here. It's the governments that are fucked up.

[@Shahjiglobal]
