Worst President of INDIA.
PRATIBHA Patil Ex COOK IndiraGandhi.
F A Ahmed.
J Hussain.

What ever Indian president might be...Dr APJ Abdul Kalam was the best president and people's president..non controversial ,non divisive .. majority Indian loves him
No president can ever match Bharat Ratna APJ Abdul Kalam sir . We may not see god. but we have seen Dr Kalam 🙏
He was definitely an opportunist who rose through the ranks in isro on shoulders of hard working scientists, his quotes were too utopian, had no grasp on real socioeconomic issues, wouldn't have been non controversial in today's polarized environment.
@@crusaderofunderdogs8005 You are just a blind hater.
@@subramaniamsrivatsa2719 Abdul Kalam is over hyped because of leftist/Islamist echo system in India!!
i concur, he was a brilliant scientist and intellectual and we feel very proud that such a person was the first citizen of our country, he was loved by all and respected by all
My notes from this video.
Jawaharlal Nehru became secular by opposing Rajendra Prasad's visit to Somnath Temple.
Hindus became "right wing" because they wanted laws to be implemented by "secular" Jawaharlal for everyone, not just Hindus.
Nehru was very confused about how he implemented his secular views.
@@sujatagarud3162 I think is talking about SG ‘s assessment
Isn’t that a common theme in our reconciliation with what constitutes as ‘secularism’ in India?Sad but true…and as a result the path to correction is made all the more difficult
@@sujatagarud3162 i don't think he was confused.
Pre independence -all leaders like nehru and Gandhi got to know that hindus can be oppressed only and hindu would not react and mu&lim are very hard to control.
So he always tried experiment on hindus and not on peaceful.
But if he had done equal treatment at that time - so now we absolutely not heard - sar tan se juda slogan on street of india today.
There would not be total elimination of hindus in Pakistan and Bangladesh.
Congress party supported sardar patel (he got 15 vote from congress parishad nehru got 0 vote)
But autocratic leader gandhi select nehru as pm (in india the one who makes joke of democracy was gandhi)
And Gandhi said - i had selected nehru because he looks more like English man than patel.
But main story was- as nehru was afraid of sardar patel (nehru for relieved when sardar patel died) in his government same gandhi was afraid that patel will sidelined gandhi if patel become pm (because all Nationalist leader understood hypocrisy of Gandhi at time of partition he said he will die if partition occurr but he didn't do anything)
But when nehru become pm ,he also sidelined gandhi 😂😂.( Politics then and now also)
@@RG-un2vl secularism in today world is stable only if based on culture, civilization of that country.
In india we missed this and today also just appeasement politics
I can’t understand how a uniform law for all the citizens of a country is divisive
You wont understand because you are a right wing hindu nationalist brahminical patriarchist fascist islamophobic transphobic modi-bhakt sanghi
Because than Ghazwa-e-Hind wont happen
Is everyone's position or status equal, economically or politically, across the country?
For example:
If person A has ₹10 and person B has ₹3, if the government treats similarly & provide them with ₹5 do they become equal ?
@@Xyz-xx9cr Someone's duty and responsibility is not measurable, but income is measurable. Anyone can be a good guy irrespective of their social and financial status but not everyone can be rich.
@@Xyz-xx9cr Uniform civil code has nothing to do with income and everything to do with religious and caste divisions.
There may be plenty of flaws in our system but it's a moment of pride for every Indian that a tribal woman from
Uparbheda village of Mayurbhanj district will be the first citizen of India being head of our ammed forces with officers & bureaucrats working under & saluting her command representing the highest constitutional office of our country.
Wishing Madam President Droupadi Murmu a successful tenure as President of 🇮🇳
Can a Red indian become President using quota?
@@queenspinkpanty725 not really and why would you call them "Red Indians"
Is she qualified
@@jerrysingh9152 She is already the PRESIDENT. She got the requisite number of votes. That itself is QUALIFICATION.
Simply don't play this tribal card bullshit... What so she is tribal? Is inflation going to come down. Can ST/SC become PM? Is petrol GST going to be cut down... Nothing will happen with this chutiyapa
For all Indians it is a matter of pride and inspiration that a woman from a tribal community has been chosen as 15th President of India 🇮🇳 . Smt. Droupadi Murmu has risen through her hard work and it matters that an individual like her is the first citizen of India, the largest democracy. She knows the problems, the insecurities, the lack of opportunities that her community and any average Indian faces. There is no better way to uplift such people than giving them powers. Long live India and its democracy.
One of the most wholesome and good sense comments that I have read on YT (and I read a lot of them).
I would still prefer Kriti Sanon as India's President. She is educated, women, good looking and fashionista. India needs her to improve it's global image.
Yes ! True .. unfortunately can do very little to nothing about any of that.
All that is well written but does it really mean anything? Being in that position we saw Ramnath couldnt enter a temple even! And what she can do is sign on the papers sent by the PMO office cant even push back like Presidents during Congress time!
Her background is not going to matter but What she is going to do As OUR PRESIDENT will matter.
Hope She makes a Sound person like our APJ Abdul kalam.
UCC is not just the wish of Hindu right, because its a bill that is intended to provide unbiased justice to all the people irrespective of the background, geography, culture, their religious practice etc. If India wants to be truly secular and a democracy where justice is delivered equally, then it should not function under any religious law. The constitution ensures the law of the land , which can include sensible historical practices of all religions. UCC bill can definitely accommodate good common practices from religions across so it doesn’t undermine it in anyway which many fundamentalists believe.
UCC needed very soon. Faltu Sharia law, faltu reservation system sc st act, faltu sc st bc obc funds should removed soon as possible. Shameless leftist scamgress leftist liberandu bsp sp etc.. support it.
Modi ji BJP wants faltu reservation system eliminate directly but lower sc st bc obc mulims shamele.s ppl not agree the reason BJP modi ji choosed indirect way to end the faltu reservation by making all govt sector to private capitalism and by bringing UCC whole faltu reservation system sc st act sc st bc funds Sharia law will eliminate.
Jai BJP jai modi Ji
They just want Ghazwa-e-Hind
@@kafirlivesmatter5677 UCC has nothing to do with reservations. The former would deal with laws governing marriage, inheritance, etc. and will have no effect on reservations in jobs, admissions, etc.
The Print & Indian LAME stream media sees JUSTICE FOR ALL as Hindu Right!!
Yet!! The British & leftist echo system had divided Hindus on castes to make it a feeble minority!!
Nevertheless, those who killed or are threatening to kill truthful Nipur sharma's are branded as peaceful since Nehru's time!!
UCC is nigh important, but can it be really applied... You know, different states have different laws and stuff .... 🤷🏻♂️ We still have most of the laws Britishers used to rule us with...
India has a FEMALE president 🥳🥳🥳. Congratulations 👏🏿 from East Africa.
That too a FEMALE from a BLACK TRIBAL background. People in WEST cannot even imagine this.
We had one earlier too. Don’t forget.
Our third
By far the most eventful president was Fakhruddin Ali Ahmed who allowed Indira Gandhi to declare emergency
What a sad story that Nehru prevailed and not Dr.Rajendra Prasad.
Jan Sangh fighting against inequality in those days was divisive? SG really? First divide people by making different laws, then call those who oppose it as divisive. Wah.. one must be on some rare substance to use the word divisive here
Everybody knows that they behaved like chowkidar for British firangi opposing independence, want to change flag etc.
Those who think India's freedom movement started with Congress and ended with Congress, will never ever understand the true struggle.
Just see how restless these people get when a tribal women gets this recognition....can't digest.....these people call themselves liberals🤣
True. Now they are questioning the value of the position.
Episode might be different if Yaswant Sinha won the position.
There are no true liberals in India, all are pseudo liberals only.
After routinely usurping tribal land, labelling tribals as naxals , jailing them without charges, making fun of them through godi media, everyone is celebrating since they got a rubber stamp of.their choice 🤣
@@desigulal Wrong. The things started way before mate... In 1963 precisely in my area (bhadrachalam agency) when 67 naxals were shot dead in an encounter in a single night n the local govt then made it as win over evil. We locals not very sympathetic as per my nana, may be because they didn't read Carl Marks... What they remember was the live executions done by those annas, and the punishment the villagers used to receive if they can't feed the naxals taking shelters in their village... Bottom line, naxal is not equalent to tribal or oppressed class. their cader leaders always upper middle class, highly educated idiots blindly believing in imported communist ideology...
It is so pathetic to see Congress and some "elite" journos (not directed toward SG but his hesitation to shout his brethren is appalling) calling President Draupadi Murmu "rubber stamp". Why do they think that the rise of a Dalit/Tribal/OBC is devoid of merit? What makes a Yashwant Sinha so "qualified"? Let her tenure begin. Her legacy could be discussed in retrospect 5 years later.
Yashwant Sinha would effectively become the opposition leader all by himself. Not a "rubber stamp", but a "thorn in the side". We don't need either kind of person in such a position.
Ideally, when law and order break down in a state (like WB recently), the president is supposed to step in, and ensure the people's safety. I'm not sure Murmu is capable of it. Sinha is going to look the other way if it's not a BJP state. Prathiba Patil was definitely a "rubber stamp". I don't know what she did in her tenure.
But at our level, none of this matters. Silly games played by politicians. We are just bystanders.
True and who else than Tejasvi Yadav can say that 😅 .
Forgetting his memory - his own mother becoming a rubber stamp for her husband !
Selective memory amnesia 😀
Well said
Yashwant sinha is definitely more qualified but you are right Opposition will oppose anything the govt does, no scope for any introspection of a decision and making constructive criticism.
@@tapemaj Tejasvi Yadav is a 10th fail. His very presence in Bihar politics (that too as the "second pole") is not just appalling but is an insult to every Bihari.
Actually shekarji... 7:20 isn't it a valid point.. Why did the past governments tried to reform only hindu civil codes... Everyone has the equal rights to get the benifits of the laws and everyone has the right to be protected from any type of exploitation.. Both are our fundamental rights... Jan sang was correct
Post the partition violence, the strategy for keeping india together was to let people follow their religion/tradition with protections in the Constitution and IPC for the same.
This inevitably will conflict with the Nehruvian ideas of fast paced modernization. And it has been documented that Nehru, as a hindu felt he had the legitimacy to interfere in Hindu tradition, legally speaking. He was also able to manage this electorally by convincing the majority (united by Gandhi and other congressmen before him) that this was the way to progress.
As an aside, we might ask ourselves, if Nehru was the "Big Baddie" why did Godse assassinate a unifying Hindu leader, namely Gandhi and not the so called anti hindu, British crony and socialist namely Nehru?
Either way, the assassination served to delegitimize the hindu right (outside the congress) for two decades in the eyes of the electorate, allowing the country to take the course that it did.
@@madhavdiwakar1100 "And it has been documented that Nehru, as a hindu felt he had the legitimacy to interfere in Hindu tradition, legally speaking." I am not sure that kind of thinking has any legal validity. The observations of SC on Nupur Sharma, or even the occasional religious liberties of Shekhar Gupta however show the long shadow of Nehru's taking-Hindu-for-granted thinking.
@@nrusimha11 i thought the SC had given her protection from arrest. What exactly are you looking for here?
And yes, it’s perfectly valid for Nehru to feel that way because he was reforming laws “about hindus” with electoral legitimacy from hindus. And the hindus have voted for his party subsequently along with muslims. Because everyone felt they got what they wanted. Perfectly democratic.
Could he have been stronger and done it for all religions? Sure. But so many other things have been done.
This is why i want the opposition coalition to make uniform civil code as an election issue. Far fetched I know, but that would have more legitimacy than anything the bjp does in this area.
@@madhavdiwakar1100 todays hindus are very much aware than nehruvian hindus.todays hindus would kick your italian a$$.
@@madhavdiwakar1100 As I said, I was referring to the 'loose lips' observations, which raised real legal issues because of their prejudicial nature. If you think that Nehru had a special dispensation to tinker with the law specifically as it applied to Hindu and not with other religions, that to my mind turns the leftwing story of secular Nehru on its head. Also, not so fast with, "Because everyone felt they got what they wanted.". UCC debate shows that 'everyone' did not feel so.
So after 75 years of independence, now the question arises: does the President matter. Is it because a political party got what it wanted? Everybody, always had an opinion, nowadays it's more public and easily shared.
Life goes on.
Exactly 👍
I mean if you had read enough, this debate has been going on since Independence. Refer to the constituent Assembly debates and further discussions.
Be biased but have an informed bias.
@@NILUTPALCHETIA Guess who are the first people to use the phrase: narrow mindset ? I hope I don't have to explain further.
@@tarunkadian2 The debates that have been going on since independence were in a diff context, and not at the same level as it has been lately (even with the last president in 2017). The current pain felt by some (you as well?) is more because of which party got the upper hand. It has nothing to do with bias, but that is the easiest and laziest expression/lame excuse used by some. To each his own.
SG is so pure congressi at heart that his title is kinda questioning bjp strategies ignoring congress approach.
Watch the video before such comments
He is quite unbiased
@@nitd955 why ? Look at title .. that itself tells it.
@@ashwinb6435 but the gist of the video was that president isn't mere a rubber stamp as is being claimed by opposition.
@@nitd955 I m questioning title itself .. show me such title he wrote when congress was in power.
This CTC - It is Shekhar’s way of cluttering the matter enough to make everyone think that Murmu-ji isn’t worthy enough to be a President and her tenure will not matter. And, of course Shekhar had to give President Pratibha Patil a pass because by Shekhar’s cluttered logic President Patil actually demonstrated how irrelevant she was - Her tenure wasn’t uneventful - 26/11 and a lot of terror, large scale government corruption and scandals unfolded during her tenure. Being critical of Ms. Patil would’ve required Shekhar to demonstrate intellectual integrity and cast off his obvious bias for the Cong(I). This like most CTC episodes is filled with many layers of hypocrisy and wonderfully subtle bias and gaslighting.
Shekhar you are talented and have a natural flair to weave and narrate - don’t you think you should dispense with your needless and embarrassing bias and truly cut the clutter? I look forward to that day.
Kulkarni saab, you have nailed the truth…
Layers of sophisticated hypocrisy..
Subtle bias…
Gaslighting…
Mr Gupta uses sophistry at a different level but the bottom line is - he is no different to a common crook.
Being completely dishonest whilst feigning honesty is an art that is the prerogative of sophisticated crooks.
@ramchandra True 👍
Exactly the motive her. He's just doing the virtue signaling here.
Mr Yashwant Sinha proved that he was not going to be a sore loser and promptly congratulated the winning candidate and extended his good wishes for her successful tenure. The final outcome not withstanding, Mr Sinha expended a lot of time and effort, touring the entire country and interacting with the members of the electoral college, topping it up with frequent press conferences. The President is not just a titular/ornamental office holder, but being the highest Constitutional authority can play a decisive role in the affairs of practically all the three organs of the State.
Ramnath Kovind will be remembered for abolishing Article 370 or atleast I hope so..
He did not .. the president does not have the power
Kovind : First dalit rubberstamp president.
Murmu : First adivasi ...
Article 370 was actually dismissed just by a Presidential Order.
Parliament passed bill just to split the State of Jammu Kashmir into Jammu Kashmir and Ladakh.
Ram temple and Article 370
@Ckastic Yes also Ram temple but not invited for Bhumi poojan coz he is dalit? Modi touched the feets of pranab mukherjee also nawab sharif mother but never touch the feets of Ram nath govind sir why? Is it coz he is dalit?
Such a mesmerising encyclopaedia of information you provide to your viewers .
My subscription is well taken care of .
Much thanks to your research team and of course to the boss - SG !
Hi Tapesh,
Thank you for your kind words. We, at ThePrint, are so glad to note that you're happy with the subscription. Thanks for tuning in!
OMG!!
DR ambedkar even resigned over failing to introduce hindu code bill as law minister
he wanted uniform civil code, nehru opposed and wanted hindu code bill...
Prize na mila to prize fake hai 😂 Immense maturity by so called "Tolerant" people 😂
A 23 minute cannot do justice to the Great Post of A Great Republic, however almost all aspects of Presidency were covered very accurately and concisely throughout the span of history, it could have been done more elaborately covering other constitutional provisions and how successive amendments to the Constitution altered the role and functioning of the Office. Thanks for the video Sir.
There were days when these so called RNDTV journalists used to drown in alcohol sponsored by PM and Maino darbar..
Shekhar I rarely feel that you have gone nuts and calling UCC and RSS's stand on it divisive is one such instance. I had lost it the last when you co-related Places of worship Act with fundamental features of the Constitution.
Shekhar is over compensating for that Zubair article.
Secularism in a nutshell for you
Mr Gupta had mastered the art of sophistry…
Being utterly dishonest whilst projecting oneself as a true professional is what a sophisticated crook does !

This discussion simply shows how caste and class driven Lutyens is, and how anti-caste Hindutva is. The president is important as heck. Even the vice-president is important, otherwise people would not be outraged by Hamid Ansari. As soon as an adivasi Hindu becomes president, Lutyens-controlled media says the role isn't important. Revealing.
The president role has been a silent spectator to govt deeds and specially misdeeds in India. No president has played an assertive role to protect constitution till date.
This is not the first time this debate has been brought up. There is has been numerous times when this question was asked if President even matters? if yes what powers do they have and why MPs are allowed to choose the President? You are hearing these debates more now because of social media presence. I did remember how Pratibha Patil was called rubber stamp as well and there were discussions about what role does she really play. Why she has granted record number of pardons to 30 death sentences? Yes, there has been some influential Presidents as well like DR. APJ Abdul Kalam, Pranab Mukherjee which silenced some of these debates. So, its not the first time you are hearing these conversations. The way you have put up your comment shows how caste driven hindutva (not Hinduism) loving people like you has become, you are the one who is bringing caste into discussion. People are asking question about power and importance of President post, its called analysis and retrospection on things but again you don't want people to think or to question.
@@GauravGupta-rz6zb Nonsense. Modi is a Shudra, Kovind is Dalit, Murmu is Adivasi. Hindutva is anti-caste and always has been. Unlike the Ashraf caste patriarchy in subcontinental Muslim elite. Huge number of Muslim women marry Dalit Hindu men. Who tries to hurt them? Always Islamist extremists, never Hindutva people.
@@nmg1443 Once again you are the one who is bringing caste into discussion. Neither I asked you about Modi, Kovind or Murmu caste, nor I brought them into conversation. You want to point out their caste to me because I raised a question on Hindutva, because that's how you think, and that's all you can think. I am just explaining to you that these discussion has been done in past as well. The only nonsense I see here is your comment. Its both Hindu and Muslim extremist who hurt people.
@@GauravGupta-rz6zb Lol. Hindutva from the very beginning is about destroying caste completely. This is also why Pasmanda Muslims, who are 90% of Indian Muslims are also positive on it. Pasmanda Muslims are native Indians, they oppose hijab and other foreign nonsense that the Ashraf patriarchy try to impose. Lutyens are casteist. They hate Hindutva for this reason also.
The book "Conversation with the Crow" needs to be decluttered...
5:45 That also shows CM Modi's statesmanship!
Yeah 2002.
My Respect for you has increased with every cut the clutter...
We missed reading your articles as kids, frankly The Indian express wasn't famous ( their Marketing team- couldn't outsmart TOI i guess) or I didn't knew Shekhar Gupta existed till you made it to RUclips.
Thank you very much Sir for navigating us through the history that we had missed noticing.
Please continue the Courageous Journalism.
3:55 you tell that nehru said it is not good for secular country and rajendra prasad said he would go and he gone. This shows your biased journalism one side you proved nehru's secular nature , hindutva of rajendra but you didn't tell that what rajendra prasad and sardar patel said. Both said that somnath temple destruction is a symbolic figure how Mughal devil and later British did damaged to sanatan culture of India.
And somnath temple was first temple which was renovating which was showing that India has come out of devil period of Mughal (murder, rape, conversion) and British (economic exploitation).
Thus rajendra prasad attended.
But later rajendra prasad was died due to intervention of nehru and sardar patel died and nehru so called secular one sided politics continued.
Due to which - going to iftaar party is symbol of secularism and going to temple is communal.
India is a pseudo secular country where appeasement of minority (which is more than 20 Crore 😂😂 UN says less 5% of total population will be treated as minority but india they in 2011 already crossed 14 percentage but still enjoying minority status and no jain,Buddhism minority only mus&lm)
You biased journalist says that India should learn from secularism of America. But when a American president takes oath of bible after becoming president - at that time baised journalist go silent 😶😶.
But when a pm of india go to temple you barked and said- india secularism will be in danger.
This just show your hypocrisy.
As American and France secularism based on Their culture tradition -values which is bible same India secularism should be based on sanatan culture.
Otherwise this country will be divided another time soon.
"Sar tan se juda " is not just slogan it's their ideology which divided india in 1947. 🙏🙏
👌
Happy for her but with a strong PM, often, the office of President seldom matters
President does not matter … executive power is always with the pm
How come you did not talk about Pranab Mukharjee?? Atleast some stories will be there from a Politician like him :)
Uniform Civil Code is about the Dignity of the Individual, divorced of all the "group" memberships and identities like gender, religion/caste etc. If we just consider the construct of religion, If India is *secular* then everyone must be uniformly adjudged... hence UCC NOW!
BJP and bhakts have no problem playing identity politics and here we have people like you lecturing about secularism.
sure if its about uniformity , how about getting rid reservation as well ? ahem no we cant upset out vote bank
Her excellency
Being completely dishonest whilst projecting oneself as truly professional is the hallmark of a sophisticated crook…
Mr Gupta, would you agree ?
Mr Gupta cleverly avoided Dr Kalam's service to nation by preventing the Italian to become PM . Perhaps he wanted to show his loyalty to Nehru family
One of the best videos in recent times..keep bringing more such engrossing indian political history videos..🙌🙌
There is a clutter about Teesta Setlalvad which Shekar does't want to address. Because he must have been first supporters of Setalvad when she put all the riots blame on Modi. Now that the courts have declared that she did it for money Shekar has nothing to say. What s shame! Being firmly in congress camp, Shekar acts like a unbiased journalist. Shame on you man!
One nation, one law.
I have written a book about her journey from Rairangpur to Raisina Hills. Available on Amazon next week.
Pleasing statement,Conducted in dignified manner,Congrats
"President should not be overzealous interventionist nor Unthinking rubber stamp,But a delicate balance between them".
Does print matters, how is it important Shekhar Gupta for India.
Nice Flash back of earlier Indian Presidents on the occasion of Mrs.Draupadi Murmu got elected as the first citizen of India today ; Some of us had gone through vague memories ; A CTC on T.N.Seshan may be quite interesting but need a suitable Occasion for that ; May be his birth anniversary , Election Commission formation day , Major election result rigging day etc to name a few ;
Good brief on Presidents of India since independence. Happy that you highlighted that the position is not entirely titular and carries high responsibility. The narrative explicitly demonstrates the times and situations when the importance of having a statesman, a great human being as commander in chief
I believe Vijender Jain (and probably Sabharwal as well) was also mentioned in the Radia tapes in connection with a payout in the sealing issue. Would request Mr Gupta to revisit the entire story in more detail once again.
I feel proud with the election to high office of President Murmu. This is the second best event in the country after abrogation of Article 370.
Time to switch to 1.75x speed
The Title should have been Why We also Need President ❗😇
This was going to be my Headline k Peeche question! Anticipation game strong hai aapka 😂
Thanks for this episode!
Only because of Abdul Kalam Sonia Gandhi didn't became P.M. INC elected Sonia Gandhi as their legislative leader and met President to form government. After the meeting she announced that she is withdrawing. That is the power of the President. Abdul Kalam The Great
Bringing hindu code bill in place of religious code bill shows that congress really wasn't secular or unbiased but worked specifically with an agenda and a view of distrust and disgust towards hindu
Dr.Abdul kalam death was mourned even in remote villages. without any political party or individuals .That shows his honesty. Even today common man is ready to honour honest people.but unfortunately India has achieved greater heights in all areas like science and technology , education,etc. But the Political department has eroded it's credentials
We always remember Rajendra Prasad when he did not toe the line of Nehru in visiting Somnath temple. Radhakrishnan did not agree with Nehru and did not opt for second term. Fakruddin known as rubber stamp for Indira Gandhi in emergency proclamation. Zail Singh ready to sweep floor if demanded by Indira Gandhi. Kalam stopped Sonia in becoming PM. Pratibha ready for serve Sonia. Pranabda switched sides after Modi won in 2014.
Sachwala, Koran Expert, Arabic Expert.
Please listen to the real truth.
Inspirational leader with deep analysis of Koran
Hindu right has given diversity which no ideology has
One common thing that emerges ; Religion and Personal Ego were the key narrative, a recipe of disaster and it still dominates the corridors of power.
Life goes on. Whether SC or ST or Brahmin or Muslim is President
There is some symbolism in electing our new President and lets hope that will some way help to bring real development and prosperity in our Tribal areas..
Why there is no courtesy from the print to congratulate Draupadi Murmu on her selection as the president of india??
From 1969, Indira Gandhi split the congress and formed congress(I) or Indira Congress !! In spite of today's congress being called INC- It is still Indira Congress or essentially a Nehru-Gandhi Family Congress!! The original Indian National Congress has died long ago, in 1969 or even, before it!! Today's 'Congressmen/women' who claim 137 year heritage- SHOULDN'T PROBABLY DO SO!! I still feel that IG should have gone to the 'Dustbin of History' !!
Great Analysis, Mr. Gupta!!
Why the title this is because Murmur is elected. I am sure you would have different opinion today. I mean different explanations.
It is Shekhar’s way of cluttering the matter enough to make everyone think that Murmu-ji isn’t worthy enough to be a President and her tenure will not matters. And of course Shekhar had to give President Pratibha Patil a pass because by Shekhar’s cluttered logic President Patil actually demonstrated how irrelevant she was - Her tenure wasn’t uneventful - 26/11 and a lot of terror, large scale government corruption and scandals unfolded during her tenure. This like most CTC episodes is filled with many layers of hypocrisy and wonderfully subtle bias and gaslighting.
This was such a great episode. Our system works and every wheel and cog plays a role in it. When it failed to (like during the Emergency), we faced the consequences. But, more often than not, it has and we should be proud of that fact.
When it fails - citizens of India use the ballot to outwit the government- Never bullets !
Sign of our mature democracy
It does matter in protecting our constitution and matter related thereof and in case of emergency
This CTC episode should me as a chapter in social studies textbooks
Wow, i learned so much in such little time.
A short history of our Presidents and with a riveting story👍.
Since she is a Dalit, she will give rights to oppressed Dalits.
@7:41 why it's devisive if BJP or RSS are asking for UCC , hindu code bill do have change many regressive practices among hindu society now it's time for every community to have its benefit it's a proven medicine afterall !!!!
If the other religions are liberated they'll be difficult to control with one single narrative.
They just want Ghazwa-e-Hind
@@sensiesama2713 not getting your point
Indian constitution defines the roles of President and PM, not journalists or politicians.
Any discussion should be on changes needed in constitution, not belittling the defined roles.
This is a such good history class. Thank you Gupta Sir.
That Gyani Zail Singh meeting with Zia anecdote is one of your favorites SG....heard it like a hundred times....but always enjoy it
Proud moment for all Indians today. On a lighter note, the US missed its chance last time to elect Elizabeth Warren as their 1st Tribal woman President.
🤣🤣
Thanks Shekharji
SG , you missed Pranab Mukherjee, he was a decisive President and was respected as well as accepted by the present government though both had opposing ideologies , he was known to give PM Modi advice on economy
We as taxpayers spend so much on the President - his house or the place where he lives in the centre of Delhi is so ostentatious big, his offices, cars, rides are swanky and he has a good pay with even better pensions, so many perks that cost so much to the taxpayers. Why do we need to pay so much for a person who's hardly doing anything. Past 10 years we haven't seen president do anything significant.
Would add to that.
The past 10 years we haven't seen the president do anything. And the 5 years before that, we only heard about the president using her allowance to sponsor foreign trips for her family.😂
Draupadi Murmu's tenure as governor of Jharkhand
Proves she is a rubber stamp
Thanks!
@13.28... SG made a statement.
This is very sad that senior journalists like you are directing future generations toward the wrong side by giving such false analysis. The role of president is effective only when a conflict happens at the highest level in the Indian political diaspora. Then the President act according to the Constitution prescribed by Dr BR Ambedkar. You people are giving the wrong analysis just to vent out your frustration over one individual (Mr Modi). How sad is this...
Kalam made us feel that it does
The President is the symbol of the Government. The choice of the person for the office again is an expression of the aspirations of the people. Shekar Gupta, the left leaning Nehruvian ideologue can be made the President of the National Museum. He should have no complaints.
NDA WAS ALWAYS RIGHT
The greatest power a president can have through which they can influence the governance is the respect and adulation of the citizens as no elected government can take lightly the views of such a president. In this regard, the most powerful president of India in my view was Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam. I do hope all future presidents including the new incumbent Ms. Murmu through the message from her life journey and deeds illicit such a response from all Indians as did Dr Kalam.
0.6 to 1 percent what a increment 😘
If there were a poll on the greatest to date, Dr Kalam stands tall, a true first citizen exemplifying all the right standards, values and not a titular head.
Loved it , I found SG more interested in Sunil Gavaskar score against England than the death of the President in his bathroom - Fakruddin Ali Ahmed .
Everything matters for those who are serious about their responsibilities.
Sir, always respect your analysis and your thoughtful POV.
More amazing is your Constant and Diligent Output. What stamina, physical and mental.

Only visit to Hindu Temples was not allowed under Congress. The PM and other diginitaries could visit other religious places during that period.
president never matters we all know that but the problem is you want to ask the question now🤣🤣🤣🤣
This episode was a gem!
This is one of the best episodes.
Yes. Now Draupadi Murmu is now Rashtra Mata
