Glad to hear that this kind of politics is not dying but finding strength

"What wins elections, has nothing to do with governance" 👍🔥true

[@yashbhatnagar12]

I personally like the interviews taken by Abhinandan. A big fan of the NewsLaundry team.

[@sharadgovind1126]

I wish Delhites vote for AAP and keep this political experiment alive. More strength to AAPians to fight against the electoral manipulations.

[@saching5106]

Abhinandhan's questions were good but each one was hit out of the park except the expenditure on government ads

[@chakrapanigollapali618]

The Jasmine is just brilliant ! Comes across as honest, deeply insightful and has a sharp mind ! Great show Abhimandan. Congratulations !

[@sarasumayya3839]

Newslaundry should do a report on the famous Delhi schools and healthcare system

[@Jaypalan.]

Good one

[@shirleymendonca4299]

A very good interview! Absolutely unbiased. It reminded me of good old days of good journalism

[@indranitalukdar1761]

I must admit that I am very impressed !

[@subhojitbakshi876]

2.16 M subscribers 11k Views I guess this answers Abhinandan's question of governance vs politics/engaging content beautifully.

Excellent interview

Superb representation and analysis 🎉. , both are legend. This man, Jasmine is really a phenomenal person, i saw him at the 1st time, how intellectual conversation it was!, amazing.

Deng Xiaoping is known as the architect of modern China. Health care is the first significant reform that gave all Chinese quality education and health care. The Delhi model of AAP is doing the same. There is no need to reinvent the wheel.

[@vivekmurmu995]

Who is reinventing the wheel? Kehna kya chahte ho?

[@cinefile0075]

Quality Education and healthcare is bedrock of any developed country. But is aap doing it other than small state like Delhi ?? No..

[@vivekmurmu995]

@@cinefile0075 Someone have to start somewhere. It started from Delhi. It's under work in other places wherever they are spreading to. Isn't that a good change? Unless you are expecting AAP to transform entire INDIA into a developed country overnight, until then you'd love to criticize. Boond boond se sagar bharta hai. But if someone don't appreciate the effort of boond, then they can never think of sagar/sea. Let alone living that in real. You are just another whining kid, who'd always complain no matter what, than to appreciate for the work done by someone even in a small scale. No, AAP is not reinventing the wheel, but is making sure people have the basic wheel that has been invented ages ago, that has not been there in our country. It's all about the perspective on how you see it. One could clearly see how you perceive it. So called high productive high earning GUJARAT MODEL state, do you really think they have good basic schools, let alone Delhi level. Criticism and whining is easy, but being logical is not. Hope you learn that some day. Show me one leader, or do you think our PHENKUCHAND can ever ask votes on schools and hospital? Or could say "Please vote me if I have done good work" or would he just whine NEHRU, HINDU-MUSLIM and whatnot like he always does??

NL.. should have aggressively challenged Jasmine Shah .. that a City State cannot be compared with a large state like Gujarat because the density of population in a very large state is relatively low.. therefore you need Many X times of educational institutions/ hospitals etc to reach the same amount of folks. Also, as Delhi is the nations capital it already had a very good road infrastructure and many other infrastructure like police which are paid by central government all which are a huge drag on any State government. Therefore we should compute the adjusted per capita GDP of Delhi after excluding all central government type employees. Also delhi has a large army of Central government and PSU employees whose salaries and benefits are controlled and increased by central government because of which GDP of the state automatically benefits. Also minimum wages can only be compared on a like to like basis.. the top cities of Gujarat like Ahmedabad / Surat / Baroda would be comparable to Gujarat in fact if you aggregate the population from all the major cities from Gujarat which adds up to the population of Delhi which is 1.5 crore they would have better results. Also go and look at the culture and safety situation and pollution levels in the top cities of Gujarat.. their is no comparison in general people in the big cities are warm , they have no major safety insecurities and pollution is under control. In the rural parts of Gujarat you will have ST folks and many other communities which will have their own belief systems where bringing transformational change is more time consuming and very very resource incentive. Bottom line the interviewer who has an UG degree in economics has given Jasmine Shah a free pass on some very tough questions.

Please talk to Dr Harshinder Kaur from Patiala regarding the reality of health system in Punjab Mr Jasmine Shah.

[@subhendugiri5018]

15:52, still people only expect from one party to deliver and compare in between promise and deliver. This person is hopeful of winning election on governance, but I am not. Not this time, I believe. Even though PJB doesn't deserve single vote, still if they get the majority, nobody will ask how could they win, rather people will conclude that people has rejected AAP due to liquor scam... 02 times, AAP couldn't win single seat during Loksabha election, another typical context. 21:59, if this is the truth of Gujarat, was Abhinandan not aware of this earlier? So, Gujarat model is fake model. Education and health are basic need. 27:36, this man is saying casually that Center didn't give land to Delhi for Mohalla Clinic but Abhinandan is not bothering to think that center was the biggest blocker. Instead of thinking other ideas for places, Delhi govt could have stopped looking other places to setup MC.

[@parthsarthy8120]

When i think of a genius, particularly in journalism, i think of Abhinandan Sekri

Are you a voter in Delhi? If you'd like to save ₹20,000 every month through these benefits, vote for AAP in the upcoming election!

Make the right choice!

[@cinefile0075]

AAP is just BJP Lght. Kejriwal has Bering flirting with BJP RSS talking points a lot. Recently giving money to temple priests is one them, they also demanded ganpati image on currency. We all know why AAP doing that and targeting BJP vote bank..
