The discussion covers various topics related to the current state and future of the Indian economy and policy reforms.
Sanjeev Sanyal has held many of the top economic policymaking positions in the country. A former banker, he became the Principal Economic Advisor to the Finance Minister in 2017, where he helped prepare multiple economic surveys. He now serves as a member of the Economic Advisory Council to the Prime Minister. Renowned both within and outside the government for his insights on the economy and policy reforms, he is also a popular historian.

[@sanujpatnaik9098]

No matter where the stage is, he is bold enough. No embarassment in speaking the truth 🙏

[@ranganathhegde908]

Hats off to Mr Sanyal who has delivered an Excellent, Masterly message to North Atlantic groups. He has called out the deception of ESG.

[@mediahost2243]

Absolutely agree with his comments on Civil services examinations.

[@budhaauto]

He's 100 % Spot on ESG. That portion of the video should go viral .

[@hrishis5207]

[@AKumar-co7oe]

absolutely agree on the ESG scam - good that sanjeev has the courage to say it to the heart of the beast

[@1712nikki]

So much of clarity and conviction coupled with his boldness to call a spade a spade. Ideally, I want to see Mr. Sanyal in Indian cabinet overseeing both Education and I & B Ministries.

[@gautamganguli1221]

An outstanding performance by Sanjeev Sanyal who minces no words in calling out scams whether by Coaching classes in India or George Soros & co in the West.

[@tusharkantiroy5606]

Whenever l listen him I get surprised how clear vision he is having. I appreciate him.

[@madhusudanjeurkar3178]

This discourse needs to be broadcasted more widely amongst politicians who always miss larger picture.

[@tcroyce8128]

rather than politicians it needs to be part of voter base who are equally responsible for deliberately being stupid and latching onto fast food tier finance/econ policy reels.

[@lp34pune]

We feel very proud about our Resp Sanjeev Sanyal 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳

[@manishgrover720]

Brilliant as always. Can clearly see the famous family Sanyal’s streak of going against the grain and calling spade a spade. Well done Sanjeev !

[@tusharkantiroy5958]

It is a proud moment and that will continue to make India no less than 3rd largest Economy soon in the world. It is being aptly and excellently described by Mr Sanyal who is pivoted to drive the Indian economy at its best.

[@aroopdatta8905]

Brilliant Sanjeev Sanyal !! Absolutely brilliant !!

[@VijeDerm]

What a visionary Sanyal. An asset to this mighty Nation

[@vjaysan]

The Indian government obviously has the right sense and advisors in charting their rise as an economic power without disenfranchising the poor and the masses. Mr Sanyal certainly reflects the Indian governments concerns for sustained high growth with the poor and masses in always mind. India has made much progress in the last decade and wish them more in the next. There are no fast get rich schemes whether with corporations or nations, particularly nations with large populations and high poverty.

[@chitradoraiswami6630]

Another of our brilliant young men!

[@aniketmitra9655]

His age more then 50

[@rishisingh2989]

Fu*k carbon tax ...never do it!! Say no to Carbon Tax in India.

[@umeshthapa6230]

Insightfulness briefing to the Nation with such super clarity as only he can..VMT.

[@AbhishekDDutt]

Day by day i keep on admiring this man more and more . He is so excdllent. God bless him

[@CalmSoul.514]

So happy to hear him discuss Indian ways

[@sanjaychaudhuri4530]

Absolutely brilliant. Such a clear understanding and new gen visionary.

[@kraut1982]

Cambridge India Conference is today at 227 subscribers, let’s see how many more subscribers will Sanjeev will get them.

[@niladribanerjee2821]

These things need to go to the common average educated people of India, people in large still believe and vote for freebies।

[@hasshah1276]

Sanjeev Sanyal - a brilliant, logical, thunker. He has the ability to take complex issues, get down to the core of the problem, and find practical and logical solutions.

[@shivam_singh_kill_pro]

yes and top of that he actually solved many real world problem in indian system too.

[@soumimukherjee6748]

Brilliant and to the point as always..fantastic sir

[@YtMgk-hv6op]

Mr Sanyal is a bright and clear mind. Intelligent Beangali

[@asmitkarpit5689]

Last part of the video masaallah😊😊 Tum karo manvata ham kare to pollution 🤬🤬

[@shashankvaya2636]

I hope his ESG take goes viral

[@kgmuralidharan07]

Like Sanjeev Sanyal. He has some very good points. Some of the ideas by him have been excellent. Thought he is also a good historian or a good student of history.

[@psr4550]

Trye gem and someone to be inspired from in nationalism and roots

[@mvkudva]

Excellent talk by Mr. Sanyal. I will give it a 10/10.

[@anantbhushangaur1972]

1st July 2024 = Great to see someone like Shri Sanjeev Sanyal working as prime minister's economic advisor ❤❤❤❤❤🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@satpurush2592]

Another gem of a man in our government, an asset to India!

[@jitendivgi2761]

Amazing clarity and lucidity in the way he explains apparently complex issues. Look forward to big things from Sanjeev Sanyal. Loved the way he took the bull by the horns - "... ideology is laundered". Jaziya tax - ouch! Neo colonial control! Hammered Cambridge in Cambridge!

[@raviramanathan5565]

Wow. just the last fiery few minutes already more than worth it. Clear lay of what happened, what's to come and what has to come.

[@sanmfsd]

Great speech. Norms from a far away think tank should never curtail a production in another country nor it shouldn’t dictate to solve a problem in just one way. Usually those ways will not help a far away economy. This goes for international academics too! Study and invest on what you can improve in your economic scope and not follow voices unless there’s a common goal.

[@rukminibhandary7629]

Its a pleasure listening to mr.sanyal. feel proud about ourselves. Jai hind

[@jasujavs]

Absolutely great Sanjiv

[@kesavankartha7044]

sanjeevji you gave a good message 🎉

[@mandarmn]

A very well delivered speech. Makes all the relevant point. One thing that Sanjeevji should have detailed more is India’s path to energy independence. Given our fragile dependence on Middle Eastern Oil, India needs to think about alternatives which can be developed at scale. Green hydrogen unfortunately is not the answer.

[@rajeevvarshney5000]

Love you Sanyal. True Bharat Ratna❤

[@chhaganlal9548]

Mr sanyal has amazing clarity of thoughts. People like Mr Sanyal are most effective for social messaging like one for UPSC culture. Because even though he is in the government, but not a politician. So he can call out the deep rooted hypocrisy objectively.

[@Sacha-ft8is]

24:54 This point is quite noteworthy. We could not expect what has been observed in "Miracle of East Asia", where east Asian countries had dramatically grown thanks to strong export. Make sense Dr.Rajan has been proposing service-led growth.

[@indardeo2285]

Makes all Indians proud

[@siddarthpaim]

Great Job by @Kishen

[@vyasakaveendra7510]

SS is intelligent and great. Good for Bharat.

[@Haveagodday-w8m]

Salute 👏

[@rameshmisra4764]

Great work mr sanyal

[@krishnanunni9034]

Sir, your statement about respecting contracts and related legal reforms is highly appreciated. However, just yesterday, Kerala Assembly has reportedly passed a new legislation banning taking over of houses which are used as homes in the case of loan defaults. Is it a good step? Will banks be willing to loan for home loans in Kerala? But, obviously , it is a politically very rewarding for the ruling party in Kerala, the left front.

[@AyanMukhopadhyayAudioworks]

क्या बात है संजीव जी, डिस्कशन के अंत की ओर आपने क्या धोया उनको, बहुत मज़ा आ गया।

[@pratikchauhan1450]

Respect for you Sir .......

[@ameyaenterprises2839]

Brillent personality

[@govindasamypillai9236]

Follow his concept and grow.

[@Stories_and_more_1991]

Sanjiv Sanyal has guts , Salute to you sir.

[@financialupdates405]

He mentioned the ground realities and shown the mirror. 😊

[@deepomouli]

Two points completely agree esg and growth compounding.

[@nageshkamath4740]

Well spoken.👌👌👏👏

[@Mallu_Farmer]

as usual Mr Sanyal spoke very well.. but special appreciation to the anchor gentleman for giving space and time for Mr Sanyal.. we dont see that usually

[@dealsisle]

As I understand it, the CBI Governor dr. Rajan had a major role in cleaning up the Indian banks. It would be illuminating if dr. Sanyal could shed some light on his role in this.

[@arkabanerjee1627]

Excellent 👍👍

[@SiddhantSrivastava-t2f]

Whoa! 🎉😮😮🇮🇳💯

[@dealsisle]

A very important issue that is not given due attention is fighting public corruption. At a minimum, there should be a national law that mandates anyone caught accepting bribe to be dismissed from his job and spends a minimum five years in prison.

[@somnathsinha872]

3 top developmental anti-patterns. Decentralization, Proximatization and Pragmatics.

[@sanujpatnaik9098]

When we talk about absolute poverty eradication schemes or direct support to the very poor, we often find more number of people are benefiting from these schemes than the actual eligible numbers. 1) So, whether the Govt has failed in getting correct data of the eligible number of beneficiaries ? 2) When we say we have included more beneficiaries under various schemes like free ration scheme etc , is it an achievement or a failure as it indicates there still exist a lot more poverty in the system even after so many years of various public welfare policies ?

[@sunilchy33786]

32:05 100% agree on this coaching business and Aspiration of poverty and wasting talent.. Such a shame on us... 😐😐🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

[@adi482]

please add timestamps of various topics discussed!

[@ndb14421432]

👍👍

[@mr.whostheboss9884]

Great

[@i.m.gurney]

I agree the correct stance/position for humanity is dictated by the universe, not the west.

[@kittoybig]

It's one thing to have a vision, the other is to have the courage to see things through. The bureaucratic system in India is so entrenched in corruption and inefficiency that it would need a major overhaul to see changes. Who got the courage to do that?

[@Kvssinish]

Eccentric policy maker can some time or rarely contribute to the development

[@rozariomenezes1609]

With respect to reforming the judicial system how come Mr sanyal does not mention increasing the number of judicial officials to international standards, so as to speed up the disposal of the pending accumulated cases

he is 100 % spot on ESG scam

[@satiready]

Most people on X don't realise these Things & they come everyday reacting to every single thing & doing their vidwa Vilaap.

[@patriot9981]

Wow 🤩 what he said is great ESG is nothing but North Atlantic vs Global South The best one I heard in Europe soil 😂😂

[@srinum6774]

Sanjeev Ji, what’s the status of various indices you talked about coming from Indian think thanks ?

[@ashokbraroo8845]

❤Mad race , which I suggested to my son but he refused. He had a run to my boss union Sec and then asked me, how much salary he gets. I said ,eighty thousand. He was already getting 60thousand ❤

[@reardelt]

Sanyal basically wants India to beg America to grow so that India can increase its exports. We are not beggars. India should grow its exports by taking market share away from Chinese exporters rather than wait for America to grow. We produce goods in a cost-effective way that we take other countries' market share of exports

[@Scintillatingkids]

Wow

[@pudurm]

where is mad max raga???

[@prafulkumarudani3699]

With these stories Why Indian currency depreciated by 35 % in last 10 years Trade deficit 100 billion plus and all advanced economies are Manufacturing hub and exporting Per capita income behind Bangladesh

[@macdowellandrew]

Macro Economic Stability? Where is that? Inflation in India is very high! Medicine/Medical prices have increased by 100%~200% in last 5 years.

[@shikharsriv3553]

In Cambridge to counter Rahul Gandhi?

[@venkatraman9699]

@Shilkhar: you have a fabulous sense of humor!!

[@avi2125]

I love these phoren conferences and invited talks. Polite enquiries about coffee, cookies and donuts etc (esp in NA), then the South Asian Dept Pol Sci PhD student trying to pose challenging questions. Wondering - does Mr Sanyal ever go to Darbhanga University or Annamalai University, say...?

[@alonzo_go]

all it takes is a simple youtube search to see that Sanjeev has given talks in many Indian universities you've probably not heard of before. The real question is does Annamalai University invite him?

[@doncorleone9297]

​@@alonzo_go oh Annamalai University wouldn't invite him. Lest he pops the bubble that has been carefully curated for the students within TN by the existing ecosystem.

Colonial structure do this type of secular thing to work covertly

[@vimalyadav4599]

Building billionaires is only good till the workers working for them have the best welfare policies, India being a welfare state aspires less about creating happy billionaires and more about creating happy workers.

[@sanjoy.1235]

Nothing is so crucial indeed just a hollow type of economic framework

[@sathyendrababu7868]

ESG😅

[@Hypocritial]

We need to convince the British you see.

[@rishisingh2989]

?? why?

[@justanotherhuman1992]

cfbr

[@ranjanvtst]

Sanyal has morphed into a Macaulayan!! Try focusing on the Quality of living or Ease of living!! 3 trillion or 30 trillion economy is not going to help! Our cities and towns have collapsed! Judicial and police reforms have been bandied about. NOTHING ever comes out of all their policies, except more crazy kind of living in India! Sanyal and his ilk should drive or walk in our cities, so should Modi or Rahul or the IAS Babus IPS and the MiLords!! No footpaths, no roads, we are the worst in terms of infrastructure!

[@artus198]

What is the need for these people to go to the West and speak ?

So indirectly 1200 looters get successful every year 😂😂😂😂😂😂
