Where Narendra Modi claimed that he coined “Vasudhaiv Kutumbkam”. It’s even laughable when he says Indira coined this. This is ancient Sanskrit. This phrase existed for 1000s of years.
I think he meant in terms of public usage & emphasis by a political figure. But yeah, he should have been more clear
This phrase is from our Upanishad…. Andhe clearly said that it was coined by Indira Ji 😂 A true lieutenant from Jublee Hills of Hyderabad who being a Bharadwaj Gotra Brahmin does not even know this basics!!!
He should be taken to the cleaners … Vasudaiva kutumbukum coined by IG and he used it in MMS speech .. so what ? It is how you can use it.a rose is a rose is a rose .is NT Shakespeare Baru cannot claim Rahul Gandhi has coined the same if he has used it
Great interview. I lost Mr.Baru at 1:00:40 when he says that Hindus need to have more tolerance and accept other religions. He also spoke about the need to address Caste. The latter is a work in progress and I believe we have done a lot from a societal, legal and governmental point of view, although more needs to be done. I disagree entirely on the issue of religious intolerance. Religious intolerance is at the core of all Abrahamic religions. It is their way or the highway. The rise of Hindutva is a response to the rise of pseudo-secularism and appeasement / vote bank politics. Indian tolerance does not come from the Constitution but from the core values of Hinduism
All upper caste Hindus want to settle in the West especially the US which is dominated by Abrahamic religion. How many Hindus are persecuted there or temples burnt down? Neither are the Hindus put to any difficulties in Arab countries. Can you say the same about our country. What is happening in Manipur is a classic example. Hundreds of churches have been burnt and thousands displaced. Two women were gangraped and paraded naked. And, you have the audacity to say intolerence is at the core of Abrahamic religion and Hinduism is all about tolerance.
Totally agree .... but I wouldn't take these 2 individuals seriously at all.
@@jacobcheriyan ...it is not just the so called upper caste Hindus who want to settle in the West, but anyone who is educated and who gets a chance to migrate does so. Amongst the Hindus the Upper castes have had the advantage of having access to better schooling, etc. No doubt about that one. When I talked about the inbuilt intolerance of Abrahamic religions, I was looking at the issue through the prism of history. The depredations that native populations all around the globe have suffered at the hands of Christianity and Islam is astounding. It took 50 years for the vatican to pass a papal edict back in the 16th century that the natives of Latin America were humans with a soul. Until that time they had been hunted down ike animals and were raped, pillaged and killed at will. Then we have our own Portugese pograms along the West Coast of India. You, if i may hazard a guess, are a product of those very inquisitions and conversions. Yes, I am not physically harmed in my new home in the west, but subtle and not so subtle discrimination continues to exist, especially in small towns. And the underlying basis for this discrimination and othering is faith. Because I don't follow the "One true Lord" !!! I have been told that openly.
Mr. Cheriyan....you cannot deny the fact that salvation according to Christianity is through Jesus and no one else. Everyone else is destined to go to hell. This may not be shouted from pulpits in modern times, but no one has come out and repudiated that principle. The same applies to Islam. Anyone not believing in Allah and his prophet is a kafir and will burn eternally in hellfire. Especially those who are Mushriks (idolaters). There is no sin worse than idol worship! Islam has taken the First Commandment of the Old Testament to a new level! It is in this context that I said what I said. In contrast, Hinduism has varied ways of worship. You can worship The Divine in form, without form, in a feminine or masculine form or animal forms. Pure paganism, but it works. Find me a statement like "The truth is one but the wise describe it in different ways" in the old or new Testament or the Quran!. A Shaivite does not go out and hack a Vaishnavite or a Shakta and vice versa. It was in this context that I said that Hinduism is tolerant. Not in the French sense of Liberte, Fraternite and Egalite (pardon me for not being able to type the diacritical marks). Hopefully, you get a sense of the source of my audacity!!
Best....
@jatinderbhan , we're talking about contemprory times and not olden days. Every religion has its share of dark history and hinduism is not an exception. Don't you know wars between Shaivites vs Vaishnavites? Each sect believed the more number of garlands made with the skulls of other sect was a mark of chivalry. This was before the Brits its brought them under the umbrella of Hinduism.
Discrimination, untouchability casteism is still rampant in Hinduism. You are offended by remarks made by some presumably in the country you live in. You subtly mentioned that people of upper caste have had the advantage of better schooling. Agree. But for centuries you guys did not allow other castes even to educate themselves. Even today we're sharply divided by casteism.
Does persecution and burning of places of worship happen in other countries like what is happening in our country. You were silent about that question, Sir.
Another point I would like to make is, Christianity is older than it is in the West. To believe Christianity came to india only after the invasion of Portuguese or after East India company is just figment of the imagination of many. The religion in India is as old as the religion itself. St. Thomas came to our country in the first century itself. There are seven and a half churches built by him in Kerala and San Thome Church which is a Basilica are evidences.
Before that we were all Hindus too. There is a saying, Indians are truth seekers. We accepted Christianity because we found the truth. Accept what you said that Christianity believes Jesus is the only way to salvation. Yes. All others said this is the way and that is the way. Whereas He's the only one who said, "I am the way'. "Nobody goes to the Father except by me". I am the bread and life". He's the only one who preached love and gave His life so that we can live. He was willing to forgive even the ones who mocked, whipped and crucified Him. Even at the point if death, He prayed, "Father forgive them for they know not what they do". He did not carry any lethal weapons like how many Gods are depicted. His preaching, practising and demonstration of love was so overwhelming that we succumbed to His love. His preaching ministry is what brought education and His healing ministry brought healthcare to all without any discrimination which was unheard of until then. Can any other religious groups say they were the first ones to start destitute homes or orphanages? How many started treating lepers? Mother Terea's service in Calcutta and the demonstration of her love for destitues, poor and the marginalised is unparalleled. Her only intention was to give destitues dignity in death.
From your reply and from your dignified language, I believe you are a person of conscience and compassion. The issue that I highlited is the persecution happening in our country which has escalated under the presesent dispensation. If such incidents are happening in other parts of the world it is equally condemnable.
Its not right to do such things and if you're a person living outside India, please raise your voice against such violence. Our country, for long has been known for peace, non violence and harmony. Never justify what's happening here, especially in Manipur, Sir.
@@jacobcheriyan …I am in agreement with your statement that we need to condemn these acts, unequivocally, in and outside the country. I am from Kashmir and I would have liked the same support and concern from people like you when we were hounded out of our ancestral home of a few thousand years. It seemed the collective voice of our liberal conscience keepers somehow stayed mute.
I am glad you have found the route to salvation. You are, through your long sermon, confirmed my statement about your sense of superiority about your faith. You tend to see only dark things in Hinduism, while bathing yourself in the glory of christ.
I do agree that we should have mutual respect and acceptance of each other’s belief systems. Let there be a spirit of Sarva Dharma Samabhava! We have each said our piece. I will not respond further. May peace and tranquility prevail throughout the world! Hari Om!
Baru, at first, says Modi n BJP are unpoular bcz of wrong economic policy. And to another Qn a minute later, praises Modi for excellent economic policy..... 😊 But it's ok. He also admits his dislike for Modi for his (Modi's) kind of politics.
Interesting i/v nonetheless.
Cheers ! 👍
80% of this discussion was useless - both of them selling themselves and their availability for 2024 - speech writing or other chaaploosi
Very informative interview... Respect for Barkha for asking necessary questions. Mr. Baru is just behaving an old person who used to say "Humare time per to yeh hota tha..Sankriti and Sanskar...he replaced with Democracy and Unity" considering himself as an intellect is a mistake itself.
Very nice and honest interview!! It certainly enlightens our understanding on politics
Two media beneficiaries of earlier regime chatting about their profitable past and bleak future.
Perfectly correct
Very true.
💯
😂
One of the best interviews. I love such conversations. I can relate to the way both of them think except that I'm neither a supporter of BJP or Congress but the mindset is just the same from a neutral perspective.
History will never judge Manmohan Singh kindly the way he could not give a decent funeral to his mentor Narasimha Rao
In spite of thousands of sikhs butchered in Delhi in 1984, PM MMS was silent and loyal to his Italian masters - that was sad
He will be known for not giving a befitting reply to the Bombay attacks. That shame will never leave him and his colleagues
@@trueblueguy88what is befitting ? War with pak ?
@@sagarmohanty9655 An apt response, which was in this case war or aggression. Someone attacks your house with weapons? What is the right response,” I condemn your attack”. Think before you ask.
Due to this Manmohan Singh though brilliant and admired will forever be called a weak prime minister a spineless one. Sad but true.
Loving the way ms Dutt has been conducting these podcasts , very balanced and asking the right questions !
Haha! These guys change as they sense the winds are blowing in a different direction.
Dr Baru once said that middle class people have progressed and they dine at five start hotel yet don't feel embarrassed of not knowing how to use knife& fork; which wasn't the case earlier
Pls do not worry! We, the people of India have decided to put BJP back to power in 2024.
Sanjay Baru’s book and his criticism contributed to some extent in the defeat of Congress and bring Modi to power. It is ironic that all anti-Congress parties have now become partners in fighting BJP. Please ask Baru is BJP better than Sonia-Manmohan combine.
He has said it in the final part of interview as to what would be better for India with Modi as PM and with the kind of majority Modi's Party enjoy and do wonders without emphasising much on Unity (Nationalism) leaving the diversity and that's where he brings in 'Unity in diversity' slogan. So in his sense Modi is lacking somewhere when compared to Manmohan Singh's era and idea of India. Hope you have watched the Mojo story till the end. JAI HIND
Taking you back to 2014: book was released after 4 round of voting in April 2014...a few days before 5th round
In all there were 9 rounds of voting
Lets not forget we didn't have such a good and media coverage
The impact was miniscule in my opinion..but I see your point 👍🏼
@@milano9012yes that's true. Dunderheads want to attribute Modi 2014 success to a stupid book.
Dr. Baru was fine with slow growth and happy with free speech because he never had to sleep hungry.
If he had lived in poverty for real, his thoughts would be much different.
Free speech is a liberty we all deserve.But Hunger, misery, poverty are brutal reality.
Ye sala singapur ka citizenship le liya hai
in last 9 yers your hunger has been solved with a pathetic 5.5% growth?
Clearly shows Baru’s bias…He is trying to correct his past wrong doings….Have started to love Barkha’s objective journalism…❤
Mr Barua the fact is that India is Hindu majority country that is why all diverse people can coexist
It isn’t 20% criticism😂. It’s the other way round. Good that BJP understood once a traitor, always one. So they never showed any interest in him.
These are the kind of people who gave the next generation the horror that we have to face everyday now
Absolutely agree.
Italian mafia found
@@shreeforyou16w
Let's see what horrors we will face tomorrow... We are already facing Price rise horror.
@@shreeforyou16 describing yourself?
India today does not occupy that moral pedestal but is still highly praised all over the world.
After a long time feels good to hear one good interview both did pretty well. Good change of style by the interviewer made a lot of difference. The more the neutrality in approach by media the more appreciative it is.
I liked him before this interview.
He is saying that India’s standing internationally is at lowest currently.
Whereas everyone knows that India’s standing internationally has never been better in past than what it is now.
Look at relations with US, Russia, France, Middle East, Japan, Australia, Indian subcontinent
Indiannpolicy was of a beggar during congress timeslol and
As some1 who has travelled outside India since 2007, I completely agree with you. I have had questions being asked from me in 2007 as if I was not from India but from the Dark ages. And in 2023 visit everyone wanted to know about Digital payments and Covid Vaccine and Chandrayaan3.
Enjoyed the conversation ❤
Thanks Mr Baru,you have put across your clear agenda
It is such a wise and enlightening interview. Only a man with convictions can be so forthright. His understanding of Indian politics, sense of humor, and decency make this interview a treat.
Nice, Insightful Podcast 👍
Enjoyed the interview very much. I’ve grown up writing essays in school on India’s basic principle of unity in diversity so I’m quite perplexed about all attempts to separate and confuse us.
Excellent Chat. People should see the interview.
My respect for Barkha has certainly been on the rise lately after watching these interviews . I love how she’s clearly objective about the conversation and calls out the hypocrisy of Mr. Baru at certain instances.
U follow barkha for unbiasedness???😂😂 U should check your conscience it is at the wrong place
@@Python489 not at all.. that’s what I’m trying to say. I haven’t forgotten her vile and propaganda filled journalism in the past.. maybe that’s the reason this interview was a surprise to me as well.. a pleasant one moreover.. I think these interviews might be her redemption arc. Loved the one with Mr Poonawalla as well.
@@24vishwas i think she hasnt changed..u can see in the interview with shehzad she tries to push her propaganda of secularism and prove hindus are wrong
i agree bro
Very right about the winning Vote share. BJP has 30% committed Voters now , but the Swing vote of 8-10% Crucial for Lok sabha Seats
Pls do more podcast with 👉 Authors, Journalist's , Business People. 👍
Mr Baru is an opportunist. He wanted to sell his book so he took a swipe at the very man who backed him and gave a weapon to the BJP to attack Dr MMS. He is now saying he does not like Modi’s politics and sounding soft on Congress. Absolute Opportunist!
So true
I think, the same trolls he was complaining about but he completely condoned you; because he is targeting trollers from BJP, which means his all concerns of FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION is for himself not for others. He also said that its immaterial that India's Economy during 2011-2014 was called as 'FRAGILE FIVE', AVG INFLATION WAS double digit & went upto as high as 11.1% but as long as American President appreciates Dr MMS not for his job but his turban, Dr MMS should continue
This is not opportunism
In fact, the Congress party had forgotten MMS in the election campaign till Sonia Gandhi suddenly said he should be campaigning, too.
Somewhere he revived the public's interest in Dr Manmohan Singh.
@@TechWizardGinuNo one can forget a statesman and great leader leader like Shri. Singh who not only brought rapid development through outstanding policy measures but was INClusive.
It was his health which kept him away from active campaigning. The greatest loss to our Nation is him not coming back in 2014.
@@FreddieMurphy746 I have similar opinion and even worse about your leader.
Insightful Interview !!
Barkha sound (music) is too loud,blaring...not soothing to ears but hurting the ears incontrast to your inelligent, intellectual interviews.
Ihope u do the needed correction/ change
Excellent enlighten ing debate with Sanjay Baru.
Well done
Barkha is completely changed. Very balanced. Just asking questions no propaganda at all..
Very engrossing discussion /interview
After a long time I liked barkha Dutts toned down style and was interesting and asking relevant questions. For first time I did not hear any hatred with present government and past government criticism. Overall barkha will start watching you more and make more relevant content
Even BJP supporters would agree that as Mojo story she is doing very good as a journalist. She has become more independent.
his defining reminding that real india is unity in diversity ..yes
well... i loved the interview
Without economic reform done by vajpayee ji. Mr Singh's first team should have been a disaster like his second term .. All credit should go to vajpayee ji for doing economic reform which reap the benefits to Mr Singh .. Infact no big reform done except nuclear deal
Well said
Nice interview. Credit to Barkka Dutt for framing good questions in a flow to make the interview very interesting.
She stopped Baru as he started talking about opposition parties and their strength and on Bharat jodo. Clearly she has shifted her allegiance to Modi !
Hey Barkha Di,
I've got to be honest - I used to think you were one of those reporters with biases and skewed perspectives, thanks to some not-so-great experiences with your news media. I've always preferred news outlets that keep it real, presenting facts without pushing any hidden agendas.
But since stumbling upon your UA-cam show, I've genuinely enjoyed your videos. I appreciate how you approach interviews with a neutral stance, covering both sides of the story. I'm glad to admit that I was wrong about my initial impressions of you.
Keep up the great work and stay independent!
I of the good interviews I have heard
Excellent interview??
Modi ji is a thousand years phenomenon, he doesn't need image makeover inchief.
He cleverly avoids to speak on the nexus between media and Modi
Physical Infra, Digital Infra - On both these counts, the transformation of India since 2014 is beyond imagination.
There are other areas that have seen transformation - 2004-14 hardly any defence procurement happened and in specific instances like Air force squadrons kept depleting - neither MMRCA not LCA moved, now both are adding squadrons (this was just an example but is true of many other areas of defence procurement)
By 2014 India was already among top 10 economies growing at the fastest rate. All this Govt did is to screw up some of it through meaningless steps like demonetization.
@@lspforindia Just plot graphs of total expressway kms, total internet users, total electrified track kms, total bank accounts etc. and check if what you see is a secular 70 yr trend of growth in physical and 20-25 yr trend in digital infrastructure...if it is so, then your point holds. If the graph changes shape after 2014, then educate yourself better
What do you mean Sushma Swaraj was ejected and Arun Jaitley would be ejected?
Baru was bull shitting on details
I agree on few points if not all and one of them is that Sanjay Baru was refrain to mention though I ve a feeling, its on his top of the mind that BJP is also somehow responsible of growing devide between North and South....
I must confess I came here with my prejudice because I am apolitical and Barkha is more of congress inclined individual but anyway, it is a good podcast now I have listened to the 4th episode and I am enjoying the conversations.
Nice. I felt like two congress guy's talking.
good points by sanjay barua
In my opinion, the print & electronic media will set the agenda for the 2024 elections.
What's the need of the background music when the guest is speaking.
I hope GOI bans regional parties from contesting elections. Only congress or BJP should fight the Lok Sabha elections atleast, india needs a full majority strong government
We were never fully free democracy
We were always democracy with some restrictions
Mr Baru seems to have grown soft on Congress...
Brilliant interview Barkha. You have been such a refreshing exception in this age of sensationalistic media.
Keep it up!
Sanjay baru ..Arun shourie , Palinivel. .. Manmohan. ..Guruswamy Ramachandra Guha. and that gen are all totally credible ...and I will always prefer or give them benefit of the doubt ..on all issues. .
Good traitor list 😂
1 thing I don’t like Mr Baru says….. is constantly seeking self validation from other major powers in world for India being a great democracy whereas no other major power is free of the same issues that they try to point at India
Quite disappointing when someone as brilliant as Dr. Baru called MH 2019 as a stolen mandate.
I think before 2014 , India is more modern then today's Chinese modernisation were quality in any development won't be seen anywhere
Strat introducing you guest !!
The background music is irritating,
Mr Baru's dislike for PM Modi is very evident. Per him, India wasnt communal when there were regular riots in the country but now because Hindus refuse to bow down and be the 'chara' in 'bhaichara'.
Excellent interview. Thank you for bringing it to us.
Please add the timestamps.
When informed minds converse this happens. Just a request to review the noisy intro and outro music.
Reservations should have never existed, was appeasement given about the UPA government
Lutyens Delhi elite - got a kick - i shall give that credit to Modi
Baru has written about everything he was asked about.
Being a Brahmin, he does not know from where "Vasudaiva Kutumbakam" came. He says Indira Gandhi coined it.
What did an india achieve during being 100Percent democracy?
Dr Manmohan’s issue was managing coalition dynamics on one side and congress leadership on the other side. He is an academic not a leader he is not cutout for electoral politics. Therein lies his fall. Otherwise Dr MMS is the most learned man in India. Just look at the number of universities that have conferred a doctorate degree to him.
An academic is a highly rational person. He should have manned up and resigned instead of taking the humiliation. Can you even see Congress tom toming MMS era achievements.
1) full credit to Mr Modi / Mr Shah for being perfect judge of people and their characters , who has to be given a position and who has to be ignored ,
2) The Indian left ( pre 2014 people in power were all left ) cannot digest that the Hindu / Sanatn Dharam middle class is asserting itself they’d rather have them buy Bollywood tickets and vote broken to throw up coalition nonsense
3) India is growing because of Hindu majority , maximum tax payers are Hindus , beware of those who will divide Hindus on the basis of language and region.
4) His political acume is either compromised or faulty if he thinks Bharat Jodi was a water shed ! Recent elections results prove that ,
Mr. Baru is out for lunch. Sikhs Gurus had to sacrifice their families and Guru Govind Singh had to pick up the sword to save our civilization and way of Life. . We are not taught truth history because it may offend some group in India . Muslims in 1947 told us in no uncertain term that they don't want to live with Kaffirs.
The way congress was going we would have Muslim India in another 50 years, our civilization would be on the verge of being wiped out.. .
Let the brightest come up through the ranks, 1.4 Billion Indians don't want family rule. People like Mr. Baru has been sheltered from the onslaught of Islam. He doesn't know that we were very close to losing our civilization our Gurus had to give their lives and fight to save us from onslaught of Islam.
Islam has already take over half of the subcontinent and are wiped out all the diversity from the areas they occupy and they are coming after the rest of us, unless we fight back,
Barkha u are doing a great job …do get anand ranganathan and j sai deepak on your show.
Our elites (Congress chamcha ecosystem) have no ambition beyond self preservation. Minimum development of India is an afterthought.
Barkha do a show in Radia tapes and expose The journalist😂
This man has no guts to speak truth.
He has written that sonya made all efforts to defeat MMS from Delhi.
Present readers, youth know how to use media and very critical, so can pick up anything available.
Middle class having a habit of getting stuck with a particular idea but present generation born around 1985 onwards, do not want/like to follow an idea traditionally.
My view, politicians and media houses as well as journalists are confused to some extend, in context of presentation. NOW.
Barkha’s new version is so much better
History will never judge not only Manmohan sing but also Naroshima rao. Vacuum created 12-14 because pranab Mukherjee left cabinet for president.
All journalists lost their privileges during Modi . They are not taken to foreign visits, not given banquets with foreign dignitaries. So you can sense the heartburn . Modi just removed the middlemen and started interacting with the voters
We request you to question congress who always do votebank politics in the name of secularism.
exactly
Bangaru was an OPPORTUNIST, no respect for him.Sorry don’t call such person , waste of your reputation.
the Truth is Rahul Gandhi never tore up the ordinance...that is the fact please recheck the video
Very loud.. Rough intro music😢. It's a spoiler. Channel managers need to rethink. Think on lines of Ndtv.. The world this week aired long back. Tabla n guitar combine
You guys discuss with ease that there was undermining of PMO office during UPA. That is real undermining of Democracy. We can not have a supreme authority which is other than PM. So “Democracy was ‘khatre mein’ then”
Old Elite - Khan Market Gang, Lutyans Delhi Irrelevant Now.
Sanjaya Baru is a traitor. Dr Manmohan Singh had kept him in high esteem, but he chose to betray Dr. Manmohan Singh. He will now give all the possible excuses.
Yes. Loyalty to party is more important than to Loyalty to India.
Totally agree. Flipping parasites.
Pinto, say no further.
This interview is such a classic example of knowing everything and yet ignoring parts of it just to appeal to a certain class 😂😂
You translate this in any regional language and see the effects !!
Such knowledge, such experience...so much time to have critical review of his own time..
Yet, such contradictions in the same interview within such a limited amt of time 🤦🤦🤦
Free speech is a luxury for a developed country. Look at what Singapore Lee Kuan Yu did to make Singapore a Developed Nation.
This man has been uttering all ills because he had to go off the role. Unprofessional media man
You should interview Kapil Sibal. 😉
Mr. Sanjay very clearly said that the phrase वसुधैव कुटुम्बकम् was coined for the very first time by Indira Ji while addressing the Earth summit in Rio in 1981! What could be more ridiculous than this as this phrase is from our Hindu scripture Upanishad🙏 So alien n far from our culture n heritage these guys are ! And if you show them the mirror, they call us troll and say India is getting communalised!!! But gone are those days where lieutenants will continue to fool India…
Sanjaya Baru is real intellectual .. would love to hear him more
I probably prematurely commented, I did hear him say some good things…
He is so impressed by "Bharat Jodo Yatra", at 32:20 he said its big for any democracy...😆 What happened december assembly elections then, at least 10% of voter's connect he said, but congress lost vote percentage compared last election....
This guy is the main culprit bcos of whom we lost wise PM like MMS .And India is burning today under scoundrels in power.
Freedom that he had to mention the book and title to Manmohan Sir or his family is at little price paid by every citizen now. What an actual accident!!
Well said.
Some could see through right at the beginning. Some later. Some now. Hopefully all will soon.
That's giving too much credit to a book.
