‘Modi Staggeringly Incompetent In Most Things not Just Economy, Disastrous for India If he Wins ‘24’

- One of India’s well-known essayists as well as an economist and political affairs commentator, whose weekly blogs are widely viewed, has said “Narendra Modi is staggeringly incompetent not just in economics but most things”. Dr. Parakala Prabhakar was speaking in an interview on his forthcoming collection of essays called ‘The Crooked Timber of New India: Essays on a Republic in Crisis’, which will be formally launched in Bangalore on Sunday the 14th. This comment was made when Dr. Parakala was questioned about the following sentence from his book: “The nation’s economic woes stem from the Modi regime’s staggering incompetence. It has been unable to put together a well-thought out, cohesive economic philosophy.” In a series of questions about who he had in mind when he wrote “the Modi regime’s staggering incompetence”, Dr. Parakala said “Narendra Modi is staggeringly incompetent not just in economics but most things”. Asked specifically about the two Finance Ministers who have served under Narendra Modi, Arun Jaitley and Nirmala Sitharaman, Dr. Parakala said that he did not want to comment on individuals.

How soft, fearless dr prabhakar . No murmmering, no uttering, no shoutings, no unparliamentary words, only subject discussion.
I want Karan Thapar to interview Modi one more time, please 😢
But keep lots of water. And dosti bani rehni chahiye.
it will be again...."dosti bane rahe"
no one cares for this Thapar guy, he is a liar and an islamic propagandist
He'll need numerous bathroom breaks after gulping all that water 🌊😏
You do? But does the interviewee?
I have not heard of such direct accountability for Modi and BJP!! So relieved to hear such an honest analysis!!👏👏
You pbaba you need a book to survive.
accountability is not for Modi or BJP but the PM and ruling party. It means accountability is applicable for all the 14 prime ministers
A bold and insightful interview. Appreciate Dr. Parakala for his views. A large number of people share the same views across the country.
Being a husband of finance minister great to hear what exact situation in India is now a big salute
Midi divides everyone including husband and wife.
Listen to him carefully 👍
No dinner for him😂

I salute the courage of Dr.Prabhakar !
Very brave to articulate what a few Hindu minority are fearing. Congratulate you both, for this bold analysis.Read the book, and the interview helped in understanding your thought process.Most educated people think contrary, and agree with the regime.Hope it makes them think deeply , where we are headed . Thankyou.
My heart most thanks to Dr Prabhakar ,a renowned economist for manifesting colossal courage against the policies of modi govt .Prabably by doing so he might have invited a tug of war in his domestic life. We wish a peace of mind of this esteemed couple would remain intact. All the best Dr Prabhkar.
Zir,
It seems, if I am not wrong, they divorced long back
Kudos to you Mr.Parakala Prabhakar.... speaking truth from your position is definitely shows you have what it takes to keep the spine straight...
We are at crossroads.Dr. parakala prabhakar, that you for your effort. Karan how do we ratify to 140 crores of innocent Indians ???????
What a pleasure to hear you both. Dr Parakala is my choice of next FM of India. Such a poised and super intelligent person. I have attended the book release.
He was thrown out by his wife and daughter and not invited by his own daughter's marriage. He kept quiet and now opened his mouth after a row with hix wife. He is from thukde thukde gang paid artiste by Congee.
You are absolutely mistaken Bro.
if that happened better india surrender to pakistan
Excellent talk. Every citizen of India should be like Mr Parakala and Mr Thapers who have kind of intellectuality of such a top level.
I thank the Wire and Mr. Thapar for this interview which introduced me to such an amazing personality like Dr. Parakala. As a political economist his observations and insights are astute and eye opening. I am truly impressed by what was read out from his recent book. What a pity that India has such amazing talented and knowledgeable people who could make so much difference to the society but are pushed to the background.
When the mob is intoxicated with continuous dose of communal venom and organized propaganda machinery shouting lies , that is the result every where
a person who was setting the agenda for the nation through Main Stream Media is now pushed down to anchoring a You Tube show. That's the power of the Right. No measured tones nor cultivated gestures will make them respectable . wasted and ignored by the billion.
Do you his wife is finance minister of India

A big salute to dr Prabhakar ji, for his brave bold courageous guts to SPEAK out against the dangerous modi BJP ruling regime, I really hope he for p m post.
Dr. Parakala explained very politely and the actual reason what's going on to India and Indians. Karan you are just trending. Thank you for both of you.
Dr Prabakar warms our hearts. More prominent Indians have to speak out about the present sorry state of affairs.

@@thetruth8630 This is not a family problem. Secondly, it shows there is democracy in the family. Thirdly, definitely he has told her but has she taken his advice? Is she caught in a trap to now to talk against Modi? Anyway, this is a national issue not a family one.
He is immune from the CBI ,ED and other agencies terrifying others. It is a great advantage. It would be a great challenge to BJP to ban his book despite his assertion about staggering incompetence.

This is a RSS policy.
It is undoubtedly surprising that he is the husband of our current finance minister, Nirmala Sitaraman, and commendably speaking out the unfiltered truth.
Oh! That's quite surprising! I googled it, and it's true!
I do not know if he gets any feedback from his wife regarding incompetence of the entire regime headed by Sahib. We are caught in the whirlpool of confusion when Sahib wins the election. What are the opposite parties doing to drive out phoney Hinduism masquerading as Hindutva . The fault lies in checkmating false propaganda doled out with the help of the new rich class with the only aim to expand their Empire come what may.
Are u all sure about this

I’m not too sure but I did read a review when someone wrote that they are divorced. Not too sure but yes, It was mentioned.
Thats why When whole Opposition & Media was lobbying for Pfizer & free money distribution during Covid, PM stands for our own Vaccine development & Did Free Grain distribution so that the economy could be saved from inflation which the west faced after distributing money.

India is already witnessing the kind of failure in the law and order situation of the country. Thank you for the wonderful discussion. 👍
True, the first time I saw a worst law breaking havoc, immediately after I started reading news paper seriously, I was 21 then...Witnessed two sardar dead bodies on the road in Sabzi mandi, Delhi out of the 3000 lyncing and murder by congress party. It keeps happening all through these five decades, latest being Sar Tanse Juda and Manipuri style violences
Have you noticed one thing there is no bomb blast on the streets after 2014. Balls are safe 🇮🇳✳️
Excellent interview. Hard facts of what is going on in our beloved mother land & future of it were spelled out.
Dr.prabhakar absolutely right. It will be a disaster

My respect for Dr Parakala Prabhakar has gone up many folds today; I used to watch his weekly program on his own UA-cam channel every Wednesday when he suddenly decided to go off air; I really missed him until I came across this interview.
I didn't have a great liking for Modi even before 2002 but the Gujarat riots and how he handled them took me light years away from him. He is the gift of LK Advani to us, who must be tossing on his bed but has no courage to speak out, however, it is we Indian citizens who have given him the legitimacy!
I am absolutely with you. Dr Prabhakar Parkala is incisive, collates data systematically and presents it as it is - without any over emphasis!
To politically disagree with his own better half and call a spade a spade requires some courage of conviction!
Hats off to Dr Prabhakar Parkala 👏👏

Well done Karan. Tks Dr. Parakala. I never miss your interviews. Admire the courage of both of you
Very good interview. Every word uttered in the interview is very true. The people of India must definitely be alert about the camouflaged Hindutva policies of the Modi Government. I was a regular viewer of The Devil's Advocate. Can never forget your interview with Mr. Modi & Miss Jayalalitha.

Would you be okay living under the same roof & sharing the same bed with the person who you think is aligned to the people destroying the very fabric of your society & country? Gormint aunty was a visionary like nobody else.
Also, please note, the opposition he is blaming for giving credibility to BJP by aligning with them in 90s/2000s, while this hypocrite himself was a spokesperson of Andhra unit of BJP during the Vajpayee era. So if he knew their real intentions all along, why did he align with them? Did not expect this softball interview from Karan Thapar, disappointed.

Is Parakala democratic and works in the larger interest of citizens.
Parakala is jealous of his wife
May be he is counted as an intellectual,but the intelligence spreading negatively is very dangerous.
If Sitaraman is removed from her present Ministerial position, both herself and Prabhakar would definitely and jointly blame the present governance, bjp and Modi.
May be Modi is illeterate, might have lied about his Qualification, but, he is delivering the goods better than any other past PMs.
Nation feels Safe and Secure now than never before. Even Karan Thappad(Taper) and Prabhakar feel enough courageous to criticize aModi.
Jai Bharat....
But, I thought there is no freedom of speech under dictator Modi😂😂😂
Congrats Mr Thaparji for a very bold interview Third term for Modiji spells a disaster for our country's democratic values which every Indian so deeply cherishes. But I do see a silver lining in our countrymen, who will definitely rise against such a divisive narrative of the government of the day. I believe in people's intelligence to rise and vote against such a narrative.

Parakala Prabhakar is absolutely right in his assessment of the present regime. People should become wiser before casting their vote. Enough of Modi and BJP
Do you have control over your vote?
When you press the button on the EVM in favour of the wisest candidate how sure are you that vote of yours has gone to your candidate and not someone else. If you are looking for the right answer then dont blame the other voters. There is a software inside the IC , EPROm chips that is keyed in by the EC or their contractors which makes fool out of us.

@@vijayakumarsamuel7748Absolutely false narrative! If there is electoral fraud via EVM as suggested by you, why do opposition candidates sign-off the results? Why do opposition parties even bother participating in elections? DMK won, so did TMC, AAP, Congress recently in Himachal. All exit polls predicted those outcomes accurately. How is it possible for exit polls to closely mirror outcomes if EVMs manipulated? Congress used to win most elections before EVMs introduced due to booth capturing.
@@vijayakumarsamuel7748 bjp has muscle power and money. They destryoed opposition's money through noteban. They can purchase memebers of mlas and mps. They purchased mlas and made govt not evm. Also disunity of oposition parties help the bjp.

Dr. Prabhakar, was right on all points.
As an Indian, I, am surprised that the people of India, have taken this all lying down, so far. It is pretty obvious, that the present government is intent on making away with a secular country, where every one lives in peace and harmony, to a theocratic state, where other than Hindus and other religions do not exist. This, one has to agree, is a poor state of affairs and our founding fathers were unable to foresee!!
Thank you both Dr. Prabhakar and Mr Thapar, for having confirmed what I had suspected.
It has yielded tangible results that an ordinary but a citizen no less like me can see and test. My town in southwest himachal pradesh for majority of its history had 1 subpar IGNOU for post secondary education. Now we have a hydroengineering univery, an AIIMS and a highway that is transforming the town like never before.
The ethos of this nation is secular, as are majority of the people, BJP can only fan ideas that would actually gain any traction amongst the masses. Their fringe can continue portraying the other sects ( india doesnt have a minority except for jews and parsis) , but those lot would never be able to enact policies that can undermine the right of those communities.
They all criticize Modi on such superficial levels nobody gives a flying fuck .

Kudos to Parakala , Author of " The crooked Timber of New India "is very pleasant and straight forward with genuine sharpness in his talks. Must read his shared thoughts .
Go ahead Thapar for the EXCELLENT work
could not agree more,. Whenever you listen to him you will not hear a word on what he has done in last 9 years as a PM but he is always telling us what INC has not done,.
This is way Fascist work study the rise and fall of Third Reich Hitler had Goebbels his propaganda minister BJP is trying to convince public at large that Congress is the bad element and they alone are the saviour of India Why Pulwama episode is suppressed ? If you take Malik seriously then burning of the coach in Godhra was neither accident nor by muslim tea seller but by their own to create a scene . Like Hitler burnt the constitution and arrested the President for it and declared emergency. you make your own conclusions
Do say that .He did promotion of the movie portraying our state as a terrorist state -'The Kerala Story '.
It's because he has done NOTHING at all, except build temples, rename stadiums and towns, inaugurating every single new train, toppling state governments through money power, and pathologically lying through his teeth every single day. Modi is a performer, an actor, not a statesman. Unfortuanately, Indians are easily swayed by actors because they lack the intellectual rigorousness that rationality requires.
Amazing interview👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 am so glad to hear this… so there are folks with whom, sense still prevails… there is indeed hope for India… brilliant!

I agree that Modi is 100percent incompetent not only as a PM but as a human.
You have nailed it by saying this....Bang on
I don't where you are banging nails. But it surely feels like nails on the Congress coffin 🤣🤣🤣
Congress shows its incompetency by allowing Rahul Gandhi to be the face of congress . I want to see a new face to congress who can compete with modi ,that would be interesting . Now I see all talks are nonsense specially keeping Rahul Gandhi as face .
Well sure you are saying he is incompetent huh! If he would be incompetent then his government would have fallen easily and secondly tough decision which congress used to say it is impossible then it wouldn't have taken place.
Last i would like to say to you don't forget GEORGE SORRUS who talked what about India?
A Big Salute to Respected Dr. Parakala for his candid views. The same respect to Karan ji too. "Is there any strong word" ... is the key word. A fantastic analysis...! God bless Both.
Such a wise person. So pleasant to listen to him!
As for freedom of expression, the husband of the current FM, Nirmala S is able to publish a book that calls the PM as staggeringly incompetent and being able to publish it and have multiple interviews about the book shows the extent to which their is freedom of speech/expression in this country. Does he realize how much of an embarrassment this would be for his wife, the FM?
I am surprised they have managed to stay as a couple instead of divorcing each other. Can such a thing be even remotely possible in Congress? Mr Prabhakar also should understand he is getting the amount of attention is getting not because of his knowledge or achievements but because his wife is the FM. Most of those who interview him use him as a tool to tarnish his wife's party. Otherwise not many would give a hoot about what he has to say.
don't know whether it is a comment on freedom of expression in India or durability of Mr Prabhakar's marriage :) or if this is a rather lame attempt to discredit him or what he is saying by offering such a funny argument.. tell me anything that he is saying in incorrect - don't worry about what his inferences just pick any data point or example he quotes to get there.
This book should be published in other languages....eg Hindi....Bengali....Gujarati...Marathi....Tamil ...Telugu...
Lets all language media should take it for discussion is important, which reach faster now a days
Thanks for skipping Malayalam. It’s okay. Because we already know it.
@@jacobdaniel100 You Keralite's already know the BJP very well by kicking them out of the 2 Assembly seats they had in the last Assembly election which the Communist's won for the second consecutive time.Therefore, Hindi must be considered for translation over any other Dravidian and the Bengali language.
@@benazir007 Only Hindi is must I think that should do the job.. 😂
Before it becomes one country one language ;)
My sincere 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 to you sir, Dr. Parakala. It is people like you who help us in keeping our hopes for this beautiful country 😊🙏🏼 thank you so much.
Parakala Prabhakar gets huge respect from me for his view, I wish there were more like him in India and the world.
Absolutely thought provoking & forcing us out of our comfort zone! Probably a wake up call for the nation? 🤔
Every one must purchase this book & spread the message to all👍👍
Grand salute to Dr. Prbhakar for telling the naked truth about Modi. Kran, your critical questions are always above anybody's imagination. Genius and great. True and bold journalism.
Without mincing the words very honest criticism. Remarkable vocabulary of you both. Many thanks
I think the word " incompetence " has somewhat different connotation to Mr Parakala than normally meant . Modiji has done a lot for the nation like gst , the india stack , direct benefit transfer , ibc , make in india , national logistics policy. The highest competence he had shown while handling the covid situation . His relentless fight against corruption saved the nation from disastrous future. When everybody gave up hope for Kashmir it is he who instilled an atmosphere of hope and tranquility. These are a few of his achievements.
Honest and unbiased criticism is desirable from literate people .
Absolutely right
45 Lakh people died from covid in India. Electoral bonds is the biggest scam in the world not only in India. Worst thing is after this election there will be no more elections in India it will become a complete dictatorship. Indians are begging for their own ruin I guess
Excellent interview. I'm very happy that the current regime faced the most crippling and most embarrassing defeat in Karnataka.
@@tempwash So, why didn't BJP give people something in return for their vote? Aren't the lobbyists and "donors" of BJP and their cronies getting what they want in exchange for their "bribe"? Do you have a list of "ALL development activities" that the government is "pondering" to stop? pondering is not the same as stopping. The current Karnataka government is using the taxes paid by the people and businesses of Karnataka to pay for these promises. What did you personally lose because BJP lost their governing power in Karnataka?
@@tempwash You did not answer any of the questions I asked. You also did not mention exactly what kind of "development" activity has been "stopped". In the name of digitization Modi government has stopped all manual work that was efficient and helped people. Do you know the LONG queues people have to wait in for EVERYTHING in Karnataka? Every time we need to get something done, the people behind the counters tell us that "server is down" or "internet is down". Why isn't BJP government hiring more people to prevent these long queues? Jobs with high paying salaries will result in prosperity for the people. Why isn't BJP government paying the pensions of elderly people? Why are people being forced to pay fees to use ATM cards? Why are people being prevented from using their own money from their own bank accounts? Everything the BJP government has inconvenienced people in more ways than one. Why are people being forced to pay tolls for roads that are supposed to be the state's infrastructure that is funded by tax payers? Why is there so much trash all over the streets? Why can't BJP government hire people with high salaries to do the work that needs to be done? All this supreme court nonsense is a distraction from the extreme corruption that Modi government has created. You just seem to be jealous that Karnataka people got some money. You also seem to be okay with Modi and his cronies looting the government of all its funds in the form of subsidies to private corporations. Instead of solving real issues and preventing new problems, Modi government has started a new bullshit trend of letting courts decide what to do. If SC should decide everything what are the politicians doing? Why are politicians getting payed? Don't they call themselves "leaders". They need to do their jobs.
🙏💐... Prabhakar Parakala Sir as always is Brilliant, Incisive, Coherent , Very Courageous, Most Timely. A Light House amidst turbulent waters. 🙏💐 Sir was deputed by Professor SC Gangal to take our Class in JNU ! And he gave me A+ ! Sir, I fall at your Blessed Feet and seek your Blessings for our Tethering Nation 🙏🙏🙏
Ignorance and prejudice is bliss for PM.
Strange no desh apne aap bad raha hai...
It's arrogance...
Sulla look at sulla majority country porkistan.
@@NandaKumar-bx8qc very strange, desh badal kar, Stone Age bann raha hai. Aur BJP supporters, ape 🦍 bann rahe hai.
@@petervas. 70 saal ma desh 3rd world sa first world country ban gaya tha right.....😂
so good to hear Dr. Parakala, his comments are crystal and perfect 👌👏🙏
I fully support you and the honesty in your interviews which most of the people from modi government don't like it.
Beautiful minds!. I salute your courage and honesty Dr. Parakala Prabhakar. Best wishes & prayers.
Isnt this man the husband of that know all " Nirmala Sitaraman"? Wow! I cant say half of what he said about my wifes work and still live under the same room. All the best to Mr. Parakala and may India escape this DISASTER!
This guy must be sleeping outside his house due to the continuous nagging from his wife.
Beautifully put about the BJP agenda on Hindutva!!!!!! 👏👏
Hindutva appeals to the dark side of the Indians!!
so proud of Dr Parakala Prabhakar. I just fell in love with him for being honest and his love for the country.
