[@deepeshsao1008]

Just coz it's sounds amazing doesn't mean this has to be followed everywhere. People of the country must know what's good for them. I am yet to hear one Political party which says if the incumbent Govt has made 40 km Expressways and highways in a day, we'll push that to 60. I will definitely reconsider my vote, but I don't think I shall vote to those who can perpetually and only see hatred everywhere. Am sorry but I can't buy Mohabbat sold by those politicians and the reasons are simple, we need Infrastructures and this Govt is on an absolute mission mode. We are Bharatvaasi not Indians.

Sohail seth has been found giving willy nilly silly suggestions. Don’t think he is a Titan in front of Karan Thapar. The content of his questioning or the underlying logic doesn’t require him to be so aggressive and put up air of authority, most of the time. He is not saying anything that hasn’t been said to defend the current government, even by his IT cell chiddis. He asked no question that was difficult for Karan or could even put him in a tough spot. Being friends with people of different political views is natural but Sobail is giggling as if he scored a point. But to be honest both of you are out of touch when it comes to what common people feel about economy and job market, crippling inflation and wealth gap, crippled justice system, discrimination and violence against women, minorities, backwards casts. You two rich bafoons are just sitting there wondering why people criticise or not this government vs other. They did the same thing too. Where in reality people are just fed up of criminals and politicians churning out policies that are not in favour of people. People are sick and tired of your political debates that considers politics as a sport and brings absolutely no value to the people of the society. I think this type of political debate is utterly pointless if you are just going to be busy feeling witty about the political game, if the purpose of it all is equally damaging to people.

*Former IPS Officer says:-* I was so upbeat when Shashi Tharoor came into politics in 2009. I still remember talking to so many of my NRI friends on how the politics of India will change for better with highly accomplished people and intelligent people like him joining politics. Then by 2013, I was disillusioned with congress and felt Anna Hazare supported by IITian Kejriwal, IPS Kiran Bedi, great actor Aamir Khan will usher in a new change in India. I even donated to India against corruption, went to Ramlila maidaan to shout slogans *Now if I look back at it, the only thing I can do is laugh at myself. But I am happy that I realised the biggest flaw in my thinking. The reason we support people like Shashi Tharoor or a Kejriwal is they are well educated. We are brainwashed from childhood that education is equal to goodness*. *NO, IT IS NOT*. *Chidambaram is MBA from Harvard and we all know what he did. Mani Shankar Aiyar is from Cambridge - We all know what kind of rubbish he speaks. Kapil Sibal is Harvard Law graduate and all he does is write mercy petitions for terrorists*. *It is not that congress didn’t have highly educated people in the party. There were lots of them but they were all crooks. And a highly educated crook is even more dangerous as he can dupe you in even more innovative ways*. Everyone from *Islamic invaders to Britishers* were supported by *highly educated and intelligent* Indians. Yes, you need them to lord over the country? So *the rulers of India cultivated a group of crooks who were well read to rule over us and keep us poor. And Chachaji and his family also continued this trend and cultivated a group of highly educated crooks to rule India. Today we call this group as Lootyens as they stay in an area called Lutyens in Delhi and loot us.* *What is the change that BJP and Modi brought into politics?* *It made jokers like me realise that IVY LEAGUE DEGREES doesn’t make you a patriot, inculcate honesty or bring goodness.* *But people who cultivate character, personality on the basis of ethos of Culture and civilisation of India have patriotism and goodness in them*. *Do this experiment if you don’t believe me:* *You go into any random RSS Shaka in any part of the country and any time in the year*. *And see what they teach those students - Patriotism, Service, Goodness, Honesty and Simplicity.* *It is done every day and all throughout the year.* *Tell me which Ivy League Univ, IIT, IIM, St Stephens, Doon school or any school where you pay lakhs of rupees as fees teach it?* *I have been to world’s top Universities, have 6 degrees but no where my education taught me patriotism or goodness*. *It is my dad who taught me and the books I read written by Swami Vivekananda or the man I idolise Shaheed Bhagat Singh who did this.* *RSS shakhas do it for all the Sangh goers everyday. Hence people like Modi are so patriotic and honest. I don’t care if he went to school or he has MA or not.* *A person who reads Swami Vivekanand or goes to a RSS Shaka is any day better than a crook with IIT or Harvard degree.* *Yes that is what we need to realise.* *Believe in your own ethos or the goodness of your own country. You will any day be better than believing in those degrees*. Pl. READ IT 👆, ONE OF THE BEST ARTICLES, AN EYE OPENER & 💁‍♂️PASS To UR Grp & OTHER INDIANS.😒 🇮🇳🚩🇮🇳🚩🇮🇳🚩🇮🇳

There plenty of leaders in BJP who are corrupted. One local example is Yedurappa in Karnataka. Modi clearly favours Adani.. and there’s no clarity on election bond received by BJP.

[@sripadashwath5411]

Atleast BJP has an ideology whereas the Congress has no real ideology & is a hostage of minority politics. The Congress has sold themselves to Minorities & now they can't back out. What did you expect when you treat Hindus as 2nd class citizens & then expect everything to be alright. The rise of Hindu Nationalism is a reactionary effect of Muslim appeasement. The Congress should have known better before getting into such a soup.

[@Prats-uz5hr]

You definitely sound like a member of RSS. The same RSS whose sycophancy reached its height while supporting Britishers, The same RSS that didnt hoist the Indian Flag until 2001, The same RSS that feeds on division which has already ruined the social fabric of this country, The same RSS that supports Varna System which discriminates against lower castes. If Modi were patriotic and honest then why hasn't he conducted a single press conference in the last 10 years to answer the people of this country? why hasn't he gone to Manipur? Why doesn't he grant farmers MSP? Why are farmers treated so badly under his governance? Why does he support Adani even after so many allegations leveled against him? Why does he make statements like mutton, mughal, machli, toti cheen ke le jayenge? If you read books of the RSS then you are likely to adopt a mindset like that. Pull your head out of your butt and see how much irreparable damage these people have caused already. You might be right in pointing out the failures of the previous government and its leaders but it seems like you completely ignored what has happened and is happening now. And if you continue to do so then you will be the biggest fool than you ever were.

Cannot understand where the brand damage to India coming from. I have lived 38 years outside India and I can only say that the brand image of India has only been enhanced several fold. India’s economy, defence, people capabilities, infrastructure, technology have all improved under modi. The progress could have been even better if we had a better opposition, who are either corrupt or incompetent or both. They have also demonstrated unruly behaviour and some of the words that come out of their leaders are simply disgusting. Our country’s problem is our opposition. They cannot contribute to discussions in the parliament and instead they stall. Sometimes I wish it will be better they go home and sit idle for our country to progress more rapidly.

Interview was good. In what way South India has been benifitted by his govt till date. Acting as brand ambasidor to only his home state is not fair in our view.

[@VikasChaudhary72]

Mr. Thapar! 👋 Just wanted to drop by and express my sincere gratitude for your recent interviews. Your precision and boldness in interviews are like my daily cup of coffee.

[@mrpatchy9950]

A fabulous interview. You get to know both fine men.

[@urmiibhattacharrya8365]

Delightful. Many more years to you Karan as one of the most articulate interviewers!

[@VTS_99]

hahaha 🤣🤣😂😂

[@mvrao29]

Every word Karan Thapar said about Shri LK Advani is 100% true. LK Advani is highly educated and truly an intellectual. The interview provides best analysis of prevailing political scenario in India. The interview brought of the unfortunate and scary scenario of political balkinisation of India. It's unfortunate that South Indians holding important Union Cabinet Ministries like Finance and External Affairs are elected to Rajya Sabha from other than their home states. Which ever Government is in power at centre should ensure that principle of Federalism is to augment "Unity in Diversity" of our Great Nation. The patriots should borrow a line from the poem "The Brook,” by Alfred Lord Tennyson and say, "Men may come and men may go, but Ganga flows for ever." Happy New Year.

The likes of Mr Karan Thapar are a rare breed in the present times. He must continue with his incisive touch without succumbing to expectations of favours of the interviewee. That's one of reasons why people are so keen to listen to each of his programs.

[@sanjayshah7776]

India is the envy of the world! I work in the UK and in the last 7 years, there is an INCREASE IN THE REAL PALATABLE RESPECT FOR INDIANS. This is the first time in 70 years that Indians abroad FEEL PROUD of their Indian passport. Damage to brand India that is Bharat, is Karan Thapur clear hate for this land's 10,000+ years of AMAZING Sanatan Dharma CULTURE, PHILOSOPHY & WAY OF LIFE

[@varoonshekhar4023]

Well said. Thapar is far too negative, it's all doom and gloom, the sky is falling. As if India was perfect before 2014. Come on.

[@sanjayshah7776]

@varoonshekhar4023 Frankly, Karan Thapur hates anything to do with Sanatan Dharma and it's amazing 10,000+ year AMAZING VIBRANT CULTURE In terms of time before 2014 , I recall, India was really dysfunctional. Eg we build a bridge during Commonwealth Games and it would collapse,( due to curroption resulting in purchase of cheap substandard materials to build the bridge). Until demonetisation, gangsterswere brash and used to laugh in the face of politicians. Now they are careful. In cities like Mumbai, bridges remain incomplete for 20 years due to curroption..... absolutely pathetic!! Not any more. India is BOOMING..... and in the next 50 years MY INDIA....MY BHARAT will be a world beater. I only wish we had this amazing growth and development in my grandparents time

[@varoonshekhar4023]

@@sanjayshah7776 Right on. I wouldn't myself glorify India, but things have improved, overall. The observation about sanathana Dharma is absolutely correct. Journalists and academics like Thapar, the Wire et al, have a real problem with identification and affinity with Dharmic consciousness and spirit.

[@MohammadAnas-gq2yb]

Decency has always been his middle name. He is the Best interviewer I have ever known. Thanks karan sir for being like you are❤

[@guneetchaudhary]

Excellent interview. Fan of you as ever. Kind regards

[@nicholaspohlong9458]

I pray journalists follow Karan Thapar's mind, grit, honesty and integrity.

[@zubeidakalathumpadikkal9503]

Karan deftly avoided being cornered when Suhel stated that brand India image was being destroyed by opposing Modi. Karan rihhtly stated that it was the policies of Modi and his government that was hurting Indias image abroad. He went in to explain in detail ,how it was being done. An outstanding journalist , on the mark and in complete awareness of what is happening in our country. Kudos to you Karan Thapar . May your tribe increase!.

[@Vch19]

Wouldn't click on this channel but for Suhel..

[@y2kAD]

This could very well be one of the best interviews i saw. Kudos to the two. Your camaraderie is something to behold.

[@prabhat37]

Karan Thapar is among the handful of journalists (rare species found in India) that I admire by heart. Always precise with his words and hits bull eye with his barrage of questions. He is like Glenn Mcgrath in Bowling....simply unplayable.

[@bibhudattaardu9711]

Romila Thapar’s grandfather Dewan Kunj Bihari Thapar was granted Diwanship for his support of General Dyer and the British after Jallianwala Bagh massacre. In fact he coordinated a honoring ceremony for the butcher General Dyer at the Golden Temple and awarded him 1.75 lakhs in that time.He was a great supporter of the British rule in India and his family was granted many high and important positions in the British Indian and congress governments. It’s not hard to see where Romila Thapar’s biases arise from.

[@muslandarmarthong2862]

Congrat Sir Karan Thapar, I am listening 🎶 your interviews and I found that you're always speaking the truth from the bottom of your heart, I like to listen you of course I will be meeting you one day. THANK YOU, NAMASKAR

[@kiranraj5663]

English, Karan's English....he is utterly informative in his interviews . Bold , as usual. I am 60 yrs old been following from TV days. Keep it up sir. ( Sir, because you are elder to me)

[@businessmachinesuppliers4775]

I started watching Karan from my childhood and a big fan. He is one of the best media person who asked toughest question to someone who drank a glass of water and disnt speak a word on an issue...

[@vickipedia3253]

अपने असली नाम से आ, अब्दुल 😂

[@pawassomvanshi]

I liked this interview Karan. You were righteously honest in this & you took the moral high road. Im beginning to reconsider viewership of your journalism. Thanks to Suhel as well for this unbiased interview.

[@davidluther1933]

Excellent, this session is what I've been waiting for. Expecting that someone should interview Karan.

[@PrabhatKarambelkar]

Suhel Seth is awesome. He made KT to admit that he is irrelevant. I would say KT is not just irrelevant for Modiji, but he will be irrelevant for India too.

[@sahinsarfaraj000]

30:52 Karan sir I'm in my 20s and I'd hear you all my life eagerly enough ❤

[@omkarahi]

Karan Thapar, great interview, and thank you for the candid answers everyone was looking for from you on Modi. Excellent discussion between two giants.

[@chandraprakashtiwari132]

Thank you Suhel for bringing perspective to journalism. Being a journalist doent mean only my view are right because I am a fearless journalist. Journalist also needs to have a balance view , specially when it comes to countries brand image , rather than a clear agenda to be famous by targeting certain section at the cost of damaging brand India.

[@forwellbeingofmankind2489]

It is always pleasure to watch intellects conversing, when we are in the midst of noise every where ..Tx Mr Suhel and Mr Thapad... Have a good evening. a splendid year ahead ... I await a lot of interviews relevant to me (a common man), relevant to a nation (sovereign nation) when unfortunately mismanaged by the dispensation ..

[@rajtam816]

The editorial freedom has to be used judicially, truthfully and with national interest in mind NOT FALLING PRAY TO AN AGENDA THAT TOO FOR DECADES

[@abhikdas6305]

Instead of strengthening opposition, he continues to talk about the policy of weakening of current dispensation . We have not found him to interview Rahul, Priyanka or Sonia. At least he should try Mamata. A great fault finder.

[@craut1809]

Nice and very candid interview. Go on as long as long as you have genuine interest in what you do and you feel you have a moral duty to bring facts in an analytical manner before the common man without prejudice and malice. And I hope, you are capable and honest enough in discharging your role as a journalist.

[@profamitgupta]

Please carry on Karan. We love hearing you ask difficult and thought provoking questions. Interestingly I couldn't stand you when I was younger (about 20 years ago), but time has made me realize your worth and methods. Your conversations have been insightful and educational.

[@mohammadzafarali5224]

Excellent interview. God bless both of you.
