I have seen and also met your dad in early 60s. I was 7 year old back then. I remember we called him Harsha Seth. When he was contesting from Gondia/Bhandara Seat, he came to our home, canvassing for himself and distributed us the batch of 'ek Joda Bail' symbol of Congress back then. He gave it to my father and asked him to vote for him. His old house was located right opposite Railway's Narrow Gauge Loco Shed. We resided in Civil Lines Railway colony. He wore a Gandhi Topi then. He also built a Hanuman Temple which was located next to our home. This must have been 1961 or 1962
I'm a Modi fan but hate that BJP got in people like Praful Patel, Ashok Chavan and Ajit Pawar into their team. BJP didn't need these vermin and would've won on their own.
yeah but people in that region r brainwashed due to caste politics. even after exposing their leaders n how incompetent they are they continue voting for them.... so now they use that scam leverage and get their seats n make them work accdng to bjp motto
Smithaji doesn't mince words when she has to ask tough questions to her guests,even though it looks like she's pro BJP she doesn't flinch asking difficult and sometimes even discomfiting questions to her BJP guests
I am not a supporter of any party but a aware citizen of India ......you should cover all aspects of the political landscape ....you have a platform use it to strengthen democracy of India
Smita ji you and Praful Patel ji spoke and discussed at length about wicked and crooked politician Shard Pawar as if Shard Pawar is a highly respected and revered kind of a saint?!!🤔
Very nice interview. So many misunderstandings in my mind about Praful Patel are overcom. Of course , Smitaji you have an art and great knowledge of politics. You are one of the best anchor Smitaji
I support Modiji, but this is really disheartening to see that despite so many fingers pointing against this person in Air India scam, he has been kind of given a clean chit without proper inquiry! If he is innocent, let it be proved through inquiry. When a common citizen evades tax or violates any rules, he faced inquiry by govt agencies. Why it is so that netas in our country keep multiplying their wealth exponentially, year after year, yet not answerable to any agency! Are they above law or do they have "superior citizensship"?
Praful Patel is very closed with Sharad Pawar and both are tinted personalities involving in good relation with anti national sentiments. Smita Prakash is requested to call good politicians.
To me Praful was always a henchman/ pimp this interview nailed my impression about him , 99 percent of his talks was all about others rather than him lol
I one for sure can tell you this guy is so corrupt and crooked that people in my town kicked him out. He had looted public money when he was aviation minister, he looted farmers of vidharbha by buying their lands and forcing them to put the money into his own scammy bank. He is very much inspired by his leader sharad pawar who we all know was the mafia of pune, and completely shattered the dreams of pune being a true IT city. He is definitely the beneficary of BJP washing machine. I hope he gets washed well after the elections.
Is this an admission that congress leaders were corrupt?????...Why does congress point fingers ...at their own people ...only when they leave the party?????? ..but not before that????.??Please tell us who else within the party now are corrupt?????..Don't paint them as corrupt only when they leave the party...
💚*"STOP IMMEDIATELY RELIGIOUS WISE "RESERVATION" &"SUBSIDIES"@"PAKISTAN ALSO DON'T GIVE ANY "RESERVATION&SUBSIDIES"@"RESERVATION & SUBSIDIES REQUIRE FOR POOR"("POVERTY") FAMILY ONLY NEED IN "BHARAT"* 💚
This guy is blatantly lying, when asked about Sharad Pawars and underworlds links, i as a Bjp voter will accept Praful patel and Ajit Pawar as part of NDA BUT will not accept that Sharad Pawar has no underworld links. Especially Dawood
तू भी दूध का धोया नहीं..ईमानदार ચાવી थी to पहले ही तू बीजेपी me क्यूं आया अभी क्यूँ..udhar तेरी दल नहीं गली to इधर कूद pada you are also like હેમંત गडकरी खुशबु राधिका नीतीश प्रमोद wanted milage for his आश्रम,कुमार विश्वास and so many others....
My beloved country men, please go out and vote. Aap log internet par likh rahein hein woh theek hein… lekin tapsya poori hogi jab hum apna vote dalengey. Please jaye e, vote dijiye!!!!!
Smitaji - I request you to not say "for expat audience who may not know". Most of the Indian-origin expats closely follow India and Indian politics, and frequently are also better connected. "For those of you not in the know/not in the loop" may be a better statement
It is cruel joke on former Air India employees by this corrupt man- they were made second class employees in their own company, some lost their jobs and livelihood, others were forced to quit and others were made to accept positions which were for lower in the merged organisation ( with Indian airlines) The aircraft orders, when he was a minister and kickback received, - evidence was found but so far no prosecution of this man . Biggest failure of BJP government is failure to prosecute the people involved in buying far more than required number of aircrafts and merging two different airlines which were culturally and economically poles apart , destroying national airline etc The current government has a duty to explain the sale of Air India to public, the loss incurred, the plight of ex-employees who are without agreed health care, pensions and other benefits. It is a lesson how not to divest a government asset! Hope this model is not followed in future divestment of public sectors
I dont agree with a lot of what praful patel, and specialy pawars relation with dawood, all of mumbai knows his relation with the trator and that makes pawar a traitor, who can forget the incident between the hindujas bahu and dawoods men at the hotel on marine drive owned by dawood then called the Natraj hotel and hindujas call to pawar and pawars call to dawood and dawood to his men all in 5 mins, this established pawars legend as dawoods boss and dawood wanting to come back and pawar not allowing it
This podcast has completely altered my perception of Praful Patel -- sincerity, integrity, intelligence etc. which are unfairly undermined in the public mind.

It's all about the numbers, Sir!!! Modi's 3rd term he is not taking any things for granted.!!!
Its about Numbers bro.
We need 400 first 🥇.
Need full Majority
yeah but people in that region r brainwashed due to caste politics. even after exposing their leaders n how incompetent they are they continue voting for them....
so now they use that scam leverage and get their seats n make them work accdng to bjp motto
Exactly I agree with you...but Modi ji has a strategy which we can't understand.
Neta Idea huge Money Business "cycle TRUST hmm" Maharashtra Direct each while Normal Tax

Smita ji, you truly have your own style that makes your podcast interesting. I enjoy watching this pod cast.
Smithaji doesn't mince words when she has to ask tough questions to her guests,even though it looks like she's pro BJP she doesn't flinch asking difficult and sometimes even discomfiting questions to her BJP guests
😊😊✌
This was excellent. A lot of stories not talked about
I am not a supporter of any party but a aware citizen of India ......you should cover all aspects of the political landscape ....you have a platform use it to strengthen democracy of India
Exceptional Podcast
Smita ji you and Praful Patel ji spoke and discussed at length about wicked and crooked politician Shard Pawar as if Shard Pawar is a highly respected and revered kind of a saint?!!🤔
😊
Smita Ji happy to hear from you. We are following you from Muscat.
Very nice interview. So many misunderstandings in my mind about Praful Patel are overcom. Of course , Smitaji you have an art and great knowledge of politics. You are one of the best anchor Smitaji
Excellent interview n praful patel is also very clever in answering your questions .
I support Modiji, but this is really disheartening to see that despite so many fingers pointing against this person in Air India scam, he has been kind of given a clean chit without proper inquiry! If he is innocent, let it be proved through inquiry.

Are they above law or do they have "superior citizensship"?
Very interesting podcast with the suave n articulate Praful Patel
Why not asked prafulbhai about Mumbai blast?
Praful Patel is very closed with Sharad Pawar and both are tinted personalities involving in good relation with anti national sentiments. Smita Prakash is requested to call good politicians.
Great video
Very interesting conversation.
Air India
So well spoken
Best podcast and a good politician

How does he sleep well in the night ?
Shameless but very comfortable with his conscience
Good stuff there
Why do not the parties of same political merge rather than keeping their identity? Is it not astonishing to have 2000 + national political parties?
Smitha ji make an episode with ram gopal verma
Can we mute anchor and only hear the guest🙈
To me Praful was always a henchman/ pimp this interview nailed my impression about him , 99 percent of his talks was all about others rather than him lol
Sharad Pawar dubious shrewdness ( relation with aa kind including underworld with few reels with Congress) must have costed him like this
Question on 1992 blasts missing elaboratively
he is actually c m material
nice
He is most corrupted politician in India
he sounds like late arun jaitley
I one for sure can tell you this guy is so corrupt and crooked that people in my town kicked him out. He had looted public money when he was aviation minister, he looted farmers of vidharbha by buying their lands and forcing them to put the money into his own scammy bank. He is very much inspired by his leader sharad pawar who we all know was the mafia of pune, and completely shattered the dreams of pune being a true IT city. He is definitely the beneficary of BJP washing machine. I hope he gets washed well after the elections.
Smita, STFU when he is laying down the timeline of things.
Is this the same praful Patel who messed up our union territory?
Is this an admission that congress leaders were corrupt?????...Why does congress point fingers ...at their own people ...only when they leave the party?????? ..but not before that????.??Please tell us who else within the party now are corrupt?????..Don't paint them as corrupt only when they leave the party...
Who is going to say that when he was minister his family got benefits ?
Once a khangressi always a khangresi AKA lier lies amd more lies
Narmada water reached kutch during modi's time but now the govt isn't taking further
Smitha ji…..there is no word like “shutted”….you said it and Praful ji repeated
It is there. You can look up.

Never thought the podcast will be so interesting...Superb Podcast

True we are n ot as knive as you think and would not fall for painting corrupt guys with colour of integrity. Bull shit
This fellow is the biggest crook. Ask him what he pocketed from AI and IA.merger??
No case!!!??? Plane purchase for Air India / Indian Airlines ?? Route sharing agreements with M.E. countries??
Prafulbhai is a sulja huva politician smart & open
Sab choro ko lene se BJP par se vishwas uth gya
Left watching your dirty news..If you are biased and afraid leave the journalism in trash and sit in home. Don’t manipulate public opinion

Praful Patel is a smart and suave politician. However, BJP would be smarter to trust their own instincts.
I don’t like this man. He screwed up Air India
Ask him about AIFF. What a waste he has made out of indian football
Air India Demolisher
