Mr Mani Shankar Iyer, former IFS officer and cabinet minister, is a maverick politician. He is well articulate and utterly honest. He was very close to Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi. I still remember him taking notes while Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi used to be on tour to different places. He is brilliant and efficient. It is unfortunate that Congress party doesn't utilise his services for the benefit of the party. There is one and only one Mani Shankar Iyer in the country, who can call a spade a spade.
All along in Congress from the time of independence, no politician had the guts to speak boldly to their boss on any wrong decision. If Mani had felt strongly who should be the PM, why he didn't tell the brass? Fear or wanting to stick to power?! Today he speaks, as he is discarded & shown the way.
Anna Hazare was promoted by RSS & sponsored by BJP. Hazare wanted BJP government at centre. It was not against corruption, not against Nirbhaya incident either.
Mani shankar lies a lot. Since he told, Modi can sell tea in the congress conference, it was deathnell for congress party, else congress would have won 140 seats. The chaay par charcha was a success for BJP.
Mani sankaraiyer out burst of tea maker will nerver become PM of iIndia he has noeducation like him to become PM this statement helped youngsters vote to Mody
Manmohan Singh was a good man and also a good Prime minister but he required some support from a person like Amit Shah in the Congress. He had some huge weaknesses like Coming on camera and speaking against violence. Also he would not challenge people who challenged him. Also he did not ensure that the opposition with wrong intention would come to power. His importance to defence spending was not good. Only before exiting did he order the 126 raffles. Also navy was in poor shape. He most concentration was on daily work and economic well being of the country. But a good Prime minister ensure the security of the country in totality.
Will grant that this guy's still sharp as a whip, save for when he FAILS to admit that the policies of the one BJP guy he "liked" (or whatever!) was what LED US to the Prime Ministership of the chap he HATES (he👆used the word "dislike"😀) --- Vajpayee's "reach out" to Pakistan (more like appeasing!) led us first to Kargil, then CONTINUED appeasing (!) led us to Kandahar hijacking, Parliament attack (he👆TOO was an MP, right?!), Akshardham, Ajmal Kasab & Co. etc etc But then... Nobody likes for their "Motherland" (he👆is Lahore born!) to be DE-HYPHENATED...made Irrelevant etc. Certainly not by a "disliked chaiwala" 😁
Mani is a gold mine for BJP.. He just slipped out that Priyanka was intending to visit GAZA.. not sure if its just a figment of his imagination but BJP will surely lap it up if they discover this. Karan did not pounce on the scoop.. wonder why..
Manishankar Aiyar: relationship manager of Gandhi family money in pakistani banks ....got commission to manage those funds..that began being stashed/deposited after 1971 ....Mani always the commission agent!...lol
I partially agree with Mani Shankar Aiyar.Perhaps it would have been better if Manmohan Singh ji would have become president & Mukherjee PM during second tenure of UPA
Karan sir ✋🏼 please do an interview Sam Pitroda on his recent books ‘Redesign The World’ and ‘The Idea of Democracy’ - very valuable conversations will follow.
Don't know why you have so much hatred for Modi. No one is against the 200 m. Don't you see Gandhi & Nehru have given them away our West & East? Those who chose to remain are yet to integtate with the remaining 80%. What's your problem with RSS?! Do you understand their principles & sacrifice to the country?
Mr Iyer lovingly want to see him as a maverick amongst by implication uniform dwarfs. But many others with his propensity to faux paw would prefer to see him as an unmistakable "car crash" type of personality.I can not understand why our politicians do not learn to count ten before opening their maw.
The language & dialogue used by PRIME minister are not befitting of the prime minister 's post. Prime minister is using language similar to that of a " cheap villain from a C grade films. He should uphold the dignity of prime minister office.
Modi talks of Vikasit Bharat, sabka saath sabka vikas - roads, ports, Vande Bharat, bullet trains, digital India, semiconductor chips..... while Rahul whines about caste census, nafrat ki bazar mein mohabbat ki dukaan.... pappu is a nutcase
BJP / modi Always waiting& ever ready to cross all standards of decency to amplify isolated events. Modi will add masala to even silly matters and blow it out of proportion.
This career diplomat is infamous for indiscreet and injudicious political observations. Iyer's hasty and hubristic comments, at critical moments, about Mr Narendra Modi queerd the Congress party's election pitch. The party had better show him the door.
it should be rise and fall of mani shankar iyer. total disgrace due to his athiest mindset. now people know who is actually neech kisam ka admi. nobody has sympathy for him. even the hard core leftists
The sikh community went through the trauma because of Mrs. Gandhi. The problem is this party is totally blind to all the communal tensions it has created.
Has anybody EVER seen Modi speaking about progress, improvement, development,growth, expansion,ect ect . Always talks hate speech,blaming Nehru,Indra & personal attacks on Rahul , Priyanka.Modi always talks irrelevant,silly matters,cursing opponents.Modi doesn't behave/speak to uphold the highest constitutional post he is holding .
Modi talks of Vikasit Bharat, sabka saath sabka vikas - roads, ports, Vande Bharat, bullet trains, digital India, semiconductor chips..... while Rahul whines about caste census, nafrat ki bazar mein mohabbat ki dukaan.... pappu is a nutcase
Congress ship sunk because of loose cannons like Mani Shankar Aiyyar. One wonders as to how he managed to enter IFS in first place with such a repetitive display of lack of tact.

Pranab had created his image bigger than others so why would anyone put him in power. He had a temper.
C’mon Karan ! You could do better! You are down to interviewing the likes of Mani Shankar!! Isn’t he the same guy tooling around the peace with neighbours, talk to neighbours! No matter what!!
When INDIA bloc whould be unifying indians, rhey r super busy breakign them now in name of class and castw n gender Removijg actually abolishing general category from INDIA bloc to woo obc...is actual suicide for any party in poltics
Is this conversation all about why gandhi fly should accept this useless oldie. And this Karan good for nothing presstitute thapar conducting this interview to ask him...
You don't like people who are disciplined. No alcohol, no partying, no womanizing and no personal agenda. You may be highly educated but you are not a good human
They have an internal twlent to twke credit for peoples combined efforts to make India beautiful..typically as royals do...verbiose opposite like indira did
B team member is back with his thrash // Problem is not this unwanted bigot from Congress // problem is that the media gives a platform to this guy whom Congress has rightly distanced from // sounds like a disgruntled sour tree // btw coincidental of someone has asked this Mani Shankar Iyer to come out of the hole and spew venom against the party who gave him everything
Has anybody seen Modi speaking with dignity befitting the high office of the country he holds and his advanced age.He is always speaking irrelevant, shoddy, mean, false, divisive, Malicious , vengeful , venomous, third rate, talk.
Modi talks of Vikasit Bharat, sabka saath sabka vikas - roads, ports, Vande Bharat, bullet trains, digital India, semiconductor chips..... while Rahul whines about caste census, nafrat ki bazar mein mohabbat ki dukaan.... pappu is a nutcas
Modi, yes he constructed many TOILETS an expert in toilet construction.As PM,should he not required to build the nation with industries, hospitals,educational institutions ect ect.He is proud to claim credit for toilets.When people are empowered by creating JOB opportunities they can build toilets onTHEIR OWN.
That's Hypocrisy of Congress people for you.. A 84 Year old Manishankar Iyer still aspires to be back in Congress and Politics.. But wants Modi who is 74 year old and 10 years younger than him to retire from Politics.. Lol
All are opportunists I'm from Kerala and I can't distinguish bjp udf and cpim sometimes CPIM is more bjp than bjp the communal politics they're playing is unbelievable and UDf is keeping their silance all are trying to please majoratianism politics . For that they've to keep an enemy opposite side like in any place in India it's muslims.people says Kerala is very secular this and that I bet within 10 days Kerala will be another UP. Sanghification of Kerala police seems very effective. I can show you many cases you won't believe it's happening in Kerala or UP
Priyanka has made parliament a ramp for models while her brother made it nuscle showing mr. India kind contest ..0 content and 11yrs of constant failure ..trying to cover it with spectacles
man's a loose cannon, irrelevant and seditious ( on a panel discussion in pak, he asked for help to remove the newly elected pm - modi) and keeps shooting his mouth off @ the wrong time and handing more votes to the sanghis! he'll never learn. that modi turned to be the worst 'leader' ever is a different matter, but looks like kt couldnt find any other guest??
When a party is reduced to a family, all non-family members are rendered irrelevant. It is clear, during nights, early mornings this man's mind must be working out all "could have beens, would have beens, must and should have beens".
Mani, You could've contributed very well to the development of Bharat, being an educated & more than that an ex IFS. But you chose the otherway & became more talketive denigrating people using caustic language.
Suicide in politics is labelling any community -enemy Though modi seems victorious like all tyrants of past but we all know their end so the fallacy to dream ,it would be different is to have learnt nothing from Time ..for the audience too
Thanks...this is better than other one where the interviewer as like all and unlike Karan and so Karan is still the most respected ..no holier than thou attitude

This is becoming a book promoting platform for men whose heydays are well past
He is speaking now when everything is over for him and again disrespecting congress which was all given to him
Pranab may not be right PM for India to make it a developed country..He was highly burecratic, socialist and left of center.
Isn't it chauvinistic to call yourself a Maverick and that too in your own autobiography?
Please look up the meanings of both the words.
Congress lost because of you calling Modi Chaiwala. Inspite of knowing this you went on damaging congress praising pakistan

I wish this man gets more and more media space, it's hugely beneficial for the country. Everyone knows what happens whenever he opens his mouth.

Certainly not by a "disliked chaiwala" 😁
Sycophancy at its peak. Actually it's disappointing.
Sycophance by whom ? Karan ?
No, by Manishankar Aiyar of the "Family"
A bankable electoral asset for BJP. Modi uses him very subtly with great effect.
Chaiwalla outburst has come out to be correct.
Mani is a gold mine for BJP.. He just slipped out that Priyanka was intending to visit GAZA.. not sure if its just a figment of his imagination but BJP will surely lap it up if they discover this. Karan did not pounce on the scoop.. wonder why..
Two guys born into rich families bemoaning that India is now more egalitarian
Perfect
Iyer is ego oldie, had he had sense he couldn't have uttered those against modi and made him famous
He doesn't represent people of india
Bad ass 😅
Egalitarian as in selling the family jewels to Ambani and Adani and the country being ruled by Modishah ?
Egalitarian? Modi?
Real pr••k
What an interview 👏

Sirs,an exceptional quality of shri Mani Shankar Aiyar is that he never minces his words.
Very good conversation. Nice to listen.
But Pranab da was a disasterous FM.

True, He was indirectly a great asset to Modi

His views on Pak are crazy. He is a mad man

No relevance for his words , congress itself don't value him anymore. why waste time listening him.
But it has helped BJP
