Siddarth Pradeep: I love both countries and have complaints against both.

Siddarth Pradeep grew up in the Indian state of Haryana, close to Delhi. He comes from the village Jadaula, near Pehowa in Kaithal district. He earned his engineering degree at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) in Delhi. Later he earned his MBA in finance. He has been working for a multinational bank in New York for 12 years. He has been taking a keen interest in the subcontinent’s history.
His unlettered grandfather made his father get the highest degree, i.e., PhD. His father ended up earning his doctoral degree in soil chemistry from GB Pant University of Agriculture and Technology. At the time it was located in the UP. Now it is in Uttarakhand. It is one of the largest agricultural universities in the world. He had a chance to go to the US for his PhD but he chose to stay in India because he wanted to be close to his parents.
His grandfather had many Muslim friends. Rana Phool Muhammad Khan, a Pakistani politician, was one of his best friends. Phool Muhammad was a member of the provincial assembly of the Punjab, representing Bhai Pheroo, a town near Lahore, in 1970 and 1977. This town has been named Phoolnagar after him. Rana Sahib also served as a provincial minister of Punjab for more than one term. Rana Phool Muhammad Khan's son, Rana Muhammad Iqbal Khan, has served as the speaker of the Punjab Assembly. He was born on April 20, 1945 at Gumthala Garhu, Tehsil Pehowa. Siddarth's grandfather safely escorted Rana Phool Muhammad's family to the Pakistan border.
About his IIT days Siddarth says:
For me, four years at IIT remain my most cherished time of my entire student life. I see it as four years of immense growth as a person. From a silly boy in the first year who actually thought of making fun of other students who were not as privileged to my fourth year having developed deep friendships with all sorts of students and appreciating their life experiences more. Basically I think more than studies, the IIT hostel allotment system and its ethos has helped me, and many others like me, grow into more inclusive and sensitive individuals. My roommate was a poor boy from Rajasthan, whose father was a postman. Now he works for a multinational company in the United States. I have thought about this and discussed with my friends. We think this is one of the reasons why IIT graduates are so successful all over the world. They have an edge over others because they are already used to living in a multicultural setup with such diverse student base, and communicating in English. Organizations today are similarly diverse.
Siddarth's father worked for the agriculture department in Haryana. He visited Pakistan twice on official business. Both times he visited Multan, Islamabad, Lahore and surrounding villages.

[@ddjoshi7026]

Shakil ji, Siddhart is an engineer turned into finance manager. His narration is optimistic and balancing the history. History should be narrated by a historian. Picking few incidents is not the real history. Rise of Marathas, Jats, Sikhs etc. was due to atrocities done by Muslims on Hindus. Destruction of 30000 temples, destruction of old universities, taxation on Hindus, partition of India are a few examples before you. History should be real as it happened, though it may be cruel.

[@gopalramanathan7062]

[@arunkukrety3696]

Shakil saheb very nice of you by inviting Siddharth on your show. Siddharth love you . Your thought process is superb

[@harisadu8998]

Siddharth ji, many NRIs think that dual citizenship may be allowed but the fact is that it won't be allowed. The constitution prohibits it and there is no will to change that. For now, you will have to make do with OCI cards. You surely know this very well. It is commendable that you are attached to your country and don't want to surrender your passport but you will have to strengthen your resolve if this is your position because dual citizenship has almost no chance of coming to fruition. Or you can take an American passport and make your life easier there. The choice is yours. You can be a Lakshmi Mittal or a Zubin Mehta who still have Indian passports, or you can be a Sundar Pichai or Satya Nadella who have American passports.

Why is disproportionately larger space given to discussions about 'perceived' intolerance in India, compared to 'actual' intolerance in muslim countries for every 'non-muslim' ?

[@harisadu8998]

How does Siddharth ji know what the religious composition of cities and towns were 500 or 600 years ago. Surely there were many Muslims at the time but there were fewer than there were in the census of 1941, that's for sure. So how does he know that there weren't many Hindus at the time? How does he know that Lahore was a Muslim majority at the time of Ibrahim Lodi and Babur?

Siddharth ji is talking favourably about land distribution which is admirable considering his family lost land but there are downsides to land distribution as well. It causes lower productivity of crop. It causes big divisions of land among big families to the point that each individual plot has no economy of scale to produce. It puts a lot of people in farming whereas there could be other ways to contribute to an economy. It prevents big technological developments and scaling of business needed to market goods more efficiently.

I believe in freedom of speech which India does not have. Siddharth ji suggests that they should get long jail sentences for the Dharam Sansad. There was inflammatory and hateful speech but no violence was committed. So why should they get a long sentence? If speech is to be punished, then those guys should get short sentences of up to 6 months but a long sentence would be wrong. Those are to be reserved for violent, serious crimes. By the way, I believe in Akbaruddin Owaisi's free speech as well but this is India so no free speech. Where was his conviction and jail term?

Thank you Shakeel Sir for such a wonderful discussion today. I loved the part where Siddharth spoke about the real contribution of the IITs. in fact, there are innumerable institutions of equal or even better grade in India that are not mentioned as much. The real learning in such institutions is the experience of equality and humbleness. The technical education is obviously first grade, but as Siddharth mentioned the focus on extra curricular activity is phenomenal and can only be lived to experience. This wholesome yet humble grooming of young minds is the biggest factor, that drives India today. Look forward to more of such insightful discussions. Once again thank you very much.

The two nation theory is very strong in Pakistan still. You only have to hear Shoaib Akhtar's comments.

IMO Bangladesh is a product of another 'intra-muslim-two-nation-theory'. In this hypothesis, N1 comprised superior and fairer muslims of west-of-Indus origin; and N2 the opposite of this.

[@gopalramanathan7062]

Exactly. The Desert Cult believes in taking over the world by conversion by force or otherwise. The creation and existence of ‘Pakistan’ and ‘Bangladesh’ is proof of that. A ‘secular’ India is an ideal situation for further dismemberment of this nominally majority Hindu nation by the Desert Cult followers.

I belong to border belt of Punjab. My ancestral maternal village is the last village on the border. My maternal grandfather was a big landlord. While he looked after the lands in the village, he constructed a house in the nearest town, Kasur, which is in Pakistan. He kept his family there because village had no school. My mother too studied there. It was a big house but the family came to the village for safety and left everything in the house. Keys were handed over to the neighbors who were Muslims and very close friends of my grandfather. After partition, for many years, that Muslim family kept bringing our household goods and even jewelry to the border where it used to be handed over to my Mama. It happened many times.

I largely agree with Siddharth ji that social media penetration has caused us to hear more about news than ever before. I have made the same observation on other videos.

Unfortunately, they tend to be one sided and to an agenda.

Siddharth, i respect Jinnah, did you say this out of modesty??? He might be a good lawyer, though that is also questionable, but he was a villain of history and responsible for millions of deaths. If it hadn't for him partition wouldn't have happened.

Typical NRI 'Hindu'....I do not want any hindu reaction to something like Kahmiri Pundits..Kyun Bhai...because you are not affected by it? You are a hindu as per convinience yet you wont stand up for anything that affects hindu. How convinient

I dnt understand when siddharthji has met muslims who condemn owaisi. I think he need to come to India to meet radical muslims whose only one aim to spread Islam nothing else.Muslims have always voted for religion be it 1946 till today.
