The quality of the discussion is very sober, intellectual on part of the participants & the anchor. This is what India represents. Indians have become more articulate, know what they want, more aspirational, with zeal to take the Country forward on path to Economic prosperity. Jai Bharat !
Why our aim is not uplifting lives and standards of living? Percapita and gdp improves as a result. Still millions of poor children are out of schools. We must screen programmes for them. In huge halls..so they know facts.Geopolitics. science basics. They are aware of the world. After letters and counting,this geopolitical education is important
@@induchopra3014Educating millions is easier said than done. First the govt should get the education policy right, the new education policy is a shit show. New methods of teaching and a whole new brass of teachers and create a more comprehensive practical oriented education plan. Ideally, a highschool graduate should be able to work in any field or run a small scale business but that’s not happening now. Focus more on skill development. Right now even some of the engineering graduates don’t know the basics of this. My synopsis is without the right education, education people is a waste of time. Without jobs in place, educating people and keeping them jobless results in riots. Once India moves to manufacturing we need a very high population of medium skilled tech workers who can solder, repair and put devices together.
Good discussion. Pity mainstream tv media’s discussions and debates are just a slanging match and talking and shouting over each other. And on top of that ticker tape going around the screen. Absolute hash

*Doing business Via UAE is better then doing business direct with Pakistan, reason it keeps Pakistan on tows, it incur extra cost, get more Leverage & Value for INDIA and UAE together, keeps Pakistan UNSETTLE, doing direct business with Pak has an effect of stablizing Pakistan and get no Benefit for INDIA*
Very disappointed with the thoughts of both the former diplomats. They are talking the language of Farooq Abdullah in diplomatic parlance. Non of them talked about terrorism as an instrument of Pakistan state policy. Being closely associated with Pakistan they have not understood the psyche of the Pakistani elite including the Army (with dual citizenship) vis-a-vis their commitment to the welfare of Pakistan as well as Mullah Nexus in radicalising the entire population. Both these gentlemen are cut off from the ground realities. It seems that they don't have any value for the lives lost because of the Pakistani terrorism. Finally no one said that complete disintegration of Pakistan is the only way to the peace in SE Asia. These two are liberals harking for Aman ki Asha nonsense in the garb of so called intellectual discussions. Poor show Smita Prakash
Being a upsc aspirant I am very keen to listen CRaja mohan because generally I read his articles on Indian express only. I quote him in many IR answers in my answers.
No talk and no trade with Pakistan Pakistan is like a snake, snake will bite you regardless you feed or not Biting is inherent character of Pakistani mindset
I completely disagree with your guest opnion of accepting trade initiative from paxtan ... COME ON Have you forget to learn from past mistakes Latho k bhooth baton se nahi mante
36:22 This is like giving breathing space to pakistan , shouldn't we use the vulnerability of our enemy and exploit it more rather then giving them chance .. Just a hypothetical situation if things were vice a versa what would have pakistan done ?? so i guess we should also do exactly the same , Hoping that one day pakistani will have some common sense is nothing more then chasing a mirage.
That's what I wondered, but remember, we want a defusal not explosion of Pakistan, otherwise refugees flood in. Best thing would be activation of Baloch and PTM, which is picking up.
A superb analysis by two of the best and most experienced geopolitical commentators of India, and equally well moderated by Smita Prakash. The whole podcast was really enlightening!
I am shocked to know from the ambassador’s comment that on PM Manmohan Singh visit in 2005 the indian contingent was not even provided with water during the joint statement with Bush
If views were any metric, you could just guess how popular this format is In this age of concentrated content for puppy attention spans, this 1 and half hour unbiased video is thriving This just signifies the maturity of our society
Why are they Not Talking about Terrorism instead of some small trade etc etc. Why should India normalise anything till that is not done. Other points are ok
People say India Pakistan should be like USA and Canada, which was only possible as both countries have Christianity which kept them together in India Pakistan case the hate for Hindus by Pakistani Muslims will never let us be in harmony
SORRY- EXPERT IS SAYING ‘’ Bangladesh has controlled their population’’ This is really nonsense. Every Muslim of Bangladesh have 10 to 21 children . And And most of them residing in india through unfair means. They have left Bangladesh and continuously refusing into india . Resulting into decreasing in Bangladesh overall population and those social sins are increasing the population of India and that of a particular religious group ( Muslims). Very Very grave concern. Smita ji please arrange for a podcast covering this subject. Regards 🙏
ANI, This is such a brilliant podcast. So much info.... Thanks but... You can post 10 podcasts a day. And we will watch them when we get time. Just so you know. Why don't these amazing podcasts be posted on time? Why so late? It has lost its relevance just because it's posted so late. Same has happened with the Fadnavis episode and so many other podcasts. That's terribly sad.
Havnt we been talking to pak for the last 75 yrs? What has it yielded? Are they ever planning to give us a route to Iran and central asia and middle east? No that would never happen. Literally since we stopped talking with pak where have we lost business or has it impacted us negatively? None at all. Let things be. Once pak grinds itself down we can pick up the pieces that we like and leave the rest to rot. After all keeping thr cancer out of the main body is wise no?
I am shaking my head in disbelief listening to Sri Bambawale's comments regarding the possibility of trading with the Islamic Republic of Pakistan; expected something way better from a person who has served as Indian High Commisioner in IRP. Even when IRP was weak, it has never failed to cause harm to India. Only when it is really down on the mat, as it is now, will it reduce (on a relative scale) its interferene. If we make the mistake of resuming trade, which in turn will help IRP towards getting back on its feet, it will ratchet up sharply its attacks on India. Hence, if we care about our safety and security, we should not do even the littlest of things that is likely to help it. If we haven't learnt this lesson even after decades, centruries, and millennia of dealing with "the religion of peace(!)", then we'll have only ourselves to blame. Sushant Sareen is one of the few people who really understands IRP. Just blindly follow Sushant's advice to the letter as far as IRP is concerned. Never ever ever ever help IRP, unless you want the kiss of death.
Bcoz we were in soviet camp idiot.. learn some geopolitics.. dey wont do the same today.. nd ur so called russia is in total chinas camp now and we are economically totally under west camp presently governed by usa.. so things changes.. get used to it
Only one question how’s it’s good for India when Pakistan gets money through trade with other countries like Saudi or UAE ? Can’t we know where they use this money, are we forgetting those bomb blasts in every corner of the country? Of course we have habit of forgetting things
I dont understand this linkage that trade will bring peace. Look at how us strategy on china went belly up. I think india should be very careful opening trade with pakistan.

It's like we are paying our enemies to buy weapons to kill us. I don't know why we have to trade with them What fantasises theese Indian Diplomats have with Pakistan
I am watching from UK. Smita l have read your profile and was very impressed with what knowledge skill and experience you have gained over the years. I have stopped watching TV instead love watching all your podcast. I am 74 and learning alot about whats happening in India a country l love the most. I visit India every year and fill so much at home. Keep up the good work and good health and best wishes from UK.
I don't understand these policy experts. Despite their intelligence and experience, they want to again try the failed methods. You can't do the same thing again and expect different results. We gave Most-Friendly-Status to Pakistan in 1996, so trade relations will improve and Pak army will see the benefit of friendly relationship with India. But, Pak never reciprocated it, they used our trade, yet perpetrated numerous terror attacks since 1996, despite so many outreach by Atalji, Manmohan and Modi. It took us so many years to realize the nature of the pakistani state i.e.they beg when weak and spread terror when strong to exploit countries. We see this pattern for 70 years now, yet these intelligent people want good trade relationship with Pakistan. For what reason, so they can knife us in the back again once they get strong again? India new strategy to keep Pakistan economically and politically isolated is the best and working to keep their terror complex weak. Hopefully, this will bring them to change, or at-least keep them busy so India can develop without terrorism issues.

An excellent discussion! Raja Mohan Gandhi is just amazing! The Pakistanis were told that India was abysmally poor and weak while Pakistan was shining like a star high in the sky. It is dawning on these Pakistanis that India has gone so far ahead that Pakistan can never catch up. Who is to blame? Obviously, the Army, as they were the ones who claimed credit for every thing happening in that Country.
Excellent Smitha, one suggestion u could have dig deep with Gowtham on any first hand crisis,how it works from high commissioner's ofc,with Raja more on central Asia crisis...geo politics like Pak with turkey etc...
Bureaucrats and industry leaders make for best podcast guests. People who are actually in the thick of things. It gives us a peek into how things really happen. I think professionals like Surgeons, Engineer working on cutting edge tech like Deep learning and AI, Scientist from different domains like theoretical physics, space, biomechanics etc could be great guests as well. I personally like Indian podcasts more compared to western ones. One concern that I have is usually we do not know the background of guests in enough detail to know about their biases.
It's excellent for Smitha to bring such professional guests and also knowledgable politicians we get a good information which normally we can't get through the debates which are really not palatable for our years by way of shouting from the debaters, buased politicians and analysts

One of the best programs on the assessment of situation in & around Pakistan. The participants' views & analysis are scintillating & spot on. Very well moderated by Samita Prakash.
Gautam is fantastic. Not a letter more and not a less. Just adequate. The speakers had to be politically correct but the fact of the matter is Pakistan's only reason of survival is it's hate towards Bharat. Unless they drop that attitude and stop terrorism there is no way they are going to prosper.
Leave Pak in side, give money to afghans to keep pak busy on other side of the border, play with usa and use quad to keep check on China so that we can grow Economically at least 7-8% per year for 10-15 years so that we can at least have 7.5 to 10 Trillion Dollars of gdp and with that comes 150-200 billion dollars of defense budget. Then India will be more of less Self Sufficient to take care of all sides of Self Interest
@@shankar9218 Pakistan has 3 Sugar Daddies..Anglo Saxon,Arab Nations and China.these nations pump money to Pakistan..just end the money supply.. Dedollarisation,Green Energy and hugh manufacturing base in India are the answer to end Pakistan menace..
'Pakistanis always want to talk at the highest level...' common sense should tell one that it's a tactic of buying time and plain disinterest in peace with India. The guests keep repeating and hoping for 'common sense' to prevail in Pakistan. What the guests think is 'common sense' doesn't make sense to Pakistanis. Even going through that nation's RUclips videos should tell you that any sense there is wrapped around religious identity. Pakistan is functioning exactly the way it was designed to be. Hate borne from religious identity, of having their 'divine right to rule' snatched from them and British machinations at moulding that hate when the seed was sown. A hate strong enough that they were willing to adopt 'Urdu' a UP dialect in order to claim the Mughal legacy. In the process, they jettisoned their own native tongues and killed 2-3 million Bengalis when they refused to do so. The poison is way too deep for anything to be done. Their army is only a reflection of the society, the recent church attacks should disabuse anyone of peaceful coexistence with Pakistan. I'm disappointed that none of the guests wanted justice for the victims not only of 26/11 but of Gokul Chat, Ghatkopar train blasts, etc. I'm aghast that such policy makers are willing to overlook these for trade or some peace mirage and even more shocking, such people advice the Govt. of India. India gave Pakistan 'MFN' status for over 10 years with nothing to show for it. They should be talking about 'pay back' not 'common sense'. Looks like it is not so common after all. I'm a South Indian and been studying Pakistan for a few years following that nation's atrocities on Indian soil.Pakistan is a mix of Shishupala, Jarasandha and Duryodhana. India has two choices, either quarantine it or destroy. My assessment is that India should be a Krishna who takes advantage when it presents itself rather than be a Arjuna who dithers in the middle of a battlefield.
I don't understand why India always wants to compare and compete with China on anything. Thus is because China is only interested in minding her own business and lifting more than 900 million Chinese people out of poverty. Under benign & great leader Xi Jinping, the Chinese people are enjoying a life of peace, prosperity and happiness. In fact, tourists from countries all over the world have vouched that today's China is the safest, cleanest and most peaceful country to visit in the world. So for India to compare and compete with China, India must first solve its poverty problem, improve its sanitation standard, clean its drinking wster and food and make its country safe and peaceful. Moreover, India's rail transport is a joke and outdated by ages compared to Vhina's High Speed Rail. Why can't India seek China,'s help to build its rail transport, like a good neighbour should? India and China should be good neighbours and friends,!

Perfect analysis. Being Pakistani, I can easily say there is a strong realisation among the common people of Pakistan that they have been fooled for 70 years. And the way india has emerged in recent decade has also played a great role in this realisation because its quite clear that we are far left behind.
Well done Smitha. Tough and concurrent issues with lonks to 75 year past. Most importantly you ask right question and wait patiently for the answer from experts. Honesty, humility is evident. You dont do agressive, assertive interruptions ( which is India media style ) and you use subtle humour too. Fresh air indeed. Keep it going
why must india benefit pakistan by opening trade? this kind of thinking led to pakistan becoming more belligerengt against india..there must be no kind of relation with a terrorist state..in fact we need to take action for having terrorist launchpads on its soil against india..

Fact is that Pakistan was indeed doing better than India in almost every parameter till end of 1990s: PKR was better than INR. Pak was world champion of hockey, cricket and squash simultaneously. Their poverty was lower. Their GDP per capita was higher. Being friends with US, China and Europe while doing better economically coupled with superiority complex inherent to Islam - Pakistanis were figuratively on moon. Things have changed in next 25 years. That’s why it is hard for them to come to terms with India’s rise. Today, India is better than Pak on every parameter
@@ABHISHEK0058 they were indeed small , in military might. They often did misadventures. They were no saints. I am only talking about their economic state. Helped by US and west, Pakistan was looked at as Asian Tiger. Almost all economic parameters were better than us. It is after Zia Ul Haq that they turned awry. PM hanged, strict Islam enforced. Then US also stopped helping them
Is shandar conversation ke liye Smitha ji aapka bahut bahut shukriya ambassador Bamwawale bilkul sahi point out Kiya"kisi nation ke liye economic common sense uske nationalisn ke integral part ki tarah hai. Sathi China ki economy jis crisis mein hai use suggestion dene ki jarurat nahin Hai. Raja Mohan Sahab hamesha ki tarah shandar rahe.
I think it’s important for the current generation to know what road we have traveled. As a country we have come a long way ! It would be interesting to record the aspirations of current generation & check back when India turns 100. 😍
Aspirations of indian youth are lambourgani, designer clothes, good urban houses with club facilities,monikes,travel, they want to explore their own abilities, and the world space. Just having a profession is lower middle class aspiration now. Indians are ready to have higher income. They dream of western standards. Want latest in home decor. This creates huge potential for everyone. Archetects, designers, decorators,auto, businesses. Just being 4rth or 3rd largest economy is meaningless if our life style doesnot improve
PLEASE BHAGAWAT GEETA MUST BE ALLOWED FOR HUNDU STUDENTS TO STUDY ESP WHEN CHRISTIAN AND MUSLIMS ARE ALLOWED THEIR RESPECTIVE BOOKS. SIR THIS IS A PRIORITY FOR PUSHING SANATAN FOR EQUALITY.

From Pakistan great analysis. Everything truth and right. We people want relationship with India and no more kashmir rhetoric. It's not the people's narrative but our democracy is weak and we are helpless
What you, the people of Pakistan want doesn't matter; people's opinions are completely irrelevant in a dictatorship. And please be clear: Pakistan is NOT a democracy, never was. It is a military dictatorship, overtly or covertly such as now. Fix your country, make it a real democracy where the military is under civilian control. Only then aspire to things that ordinary citizens of normal countries aspire to.
From India Your ancestors broke this country and went out , your country was born out of jealousy and hatred towards our country, your country tried every trick in the book to harm my country. When you were blinded by Indian hate, Indians worked hard and marched ahead this is the beginning wait for next 10 years. Now you have turned beggars because of your incapabalities and hate and we don't want any relationship with you I don't why these guest were even thinking we should have trade or dialogue with you. Today you are not capable of inflicting any new damage because you have lost the capability to do so but tomorrow when you have some strength you l do the same again Thank you
The core of PAK issue now is they thinking that they are equal to India and they are unable to get out of that mindset. During early days, PAK enjoyed US support and free money in billions. In this, they didn't even think about developing PAK with industries and economy. It was always dependent on funds from outside. Now that the funds have dried up they are shown the reality of PAK. China's exponential growth and taking on US has forced the US to shift from PAK towards India as only India can counter China in the region. Even US (whole world) knows that PAK will sleep with anyone for money and can't be trusted.
Simta madam, thank you for bringing the hidden gems of India to your podcast. Without your podcast, we would never know that such responsible people are also serving the country tirelessly.
With much gratitude to Smitha Prakash for getting these two immensely informed and experienced gentlemen to talk about what they know like the back of their hands. Many opinions, that have been based on incomplete information, misinformation have been dissipated by these soft spoken gentlemen.
The NRI remittance to India has crossed $100billion. But Indias import deficet with china has also crossed $100billion. How do you think those NRI's feel when their hard earned money is shamelessly given to the chinese because the Indian businessman is too lazy to produce his own things. Infact India gives china free money for them to wage aggression on India. That is a noval thing and so stupid.
Great sincere talk....just one correction.... Imran Khan as PM in his initial popular speech had offered to go two steps for one step from India like building Kartaarpoor for our Sikh brothers but his sincere, upfront stance was not reciprocated by the Indian govt to start the long awaited dialogue. Still it,s always a right thing to stop hating each other and think of solving the socio-economic issues of our marginilised people on both sides. Its a huge discussion which must continue with open minds..... Let,s hope for mutual respect & better things to lead our relations after 2024 elections in both countries. Atleast people on both sides are not aliens to each other and are still using the words Maamoo, Chaachoo, Baaji, Guddoo...😅😅😂❤❤❤🙏🙏
I feel Gen Bajwa played the same game in 2021 which Bhutto played in !972. Pakistan was able to get a cease fire when they were really hard pressed to find means to sustain the cross border firing. We have provided them breathing space to recover. Whereas we should put pressure on them and make them totally bankrupt.
I have a difference in opinion but enjoyed the discussion with the great Indian minds. Thank you for the classified Indian view of international affairs. Main points Economic independence and development are the main aspects of modern society. ❤
As someone who began his career repairing IBM junk,I can tell you it was the best decision they took.IBM's departure gave birth to many new Indian companies -ORG,CMC,CMS,HCL etc."Mini " computer companies such as Wang,Data General,Prime etc made computing more affordable .Subsequently the arrival of the IBM PC,soon made by many Taiwanese companies,the Windows Operating System by Microsoft,-all these enable India to move ahead.Rajiv Gandhi's open attitude to computerisation (inspite of dire warnings by the usual naysayers -CPI/CPM etc also helped.
The Ambassador is naive. The current Pakistan civilian leadership needs the army as a crutch. Every political party has used the army for its devious politics. C Raja Mohan gets the strategic picture right.

No talk and no trade with Pakistan
Pakistan is like a snake, snake will bite you regardless you feed or not
Biting is inherent character of Pakistani mindset
This is such a rich conversation! Light years ahead of other journalists!
I completely disagree with your guest opnion of accepting trade initiative from paxtan ...

Have you forget to learn from past mistakes

36:22 This is like giving breathing space to pakistan , shouldn't we use the vulnerability of our enemy and exploit it more rather then giving them chance .. Just a hypothetical situation if things were vice a versa what would have pakistan done ?? so i guess we should also do exactly the same , Hoping that one day pakistani will have some common sense is nothing more then chasing a mirage.
That's what I wondered, but remember, we want a defusal not explosion of Pakistan, otherwise refugees flood in. Best thing would be activation of Baloch and PTM, which is picking up.

Absolutely 💯 point out the things which we as a Pakistani seeing here

Bcoz you are rootless people. Come back to your ancestors religion. At least common sense will be there.
Cuz we are commoners, these guys are trained to put in big words which doesn't mean anything btw😂😂
I am shocked to know from the ambassador’s comment that on PM Manmohan Singh visit in 2005 the indian contingent was not even provided with water during the joint statement with Bush

Smita... Thanks for hosting a logical discussion by two wise gentlemen. Love from Pakistan
Why are they Not Talking about Terrorism instead of some small trade etc etc. Why should India normalise anything till that is not done. Other points are ok
People say India Pakistan should be like USA and Canada, which was only possible as both countries have Christianity which kept them together in India Pakistan case the hate for Hindus by Pakistani Muslims will never let us be in harmony
SORRY-
EXPERT IS SAYING ‘’ Bangladesh has controlled their population’’
This is really nonsense.
Every Muslim of Bangladesh have 10 to 21 children . And And most of them residing in india through unfair means. They have left Bangladesh and continuously refusing into india .
Resulting into decreasing in Bangladesh overall population and those social sins are increasing the population of India and that of a particular religious group ( Muslims).
Very Very grave concern.
Smita ji please arrange for a podcast covering this subject.

ANI,
This is such a brilliant podcast. So much info.... Thanks but...
You can post 10 podcasts a day. And we will watch them when we get time. Just so you know.
Why don't these amazing podcasts be posted on time? Why so late? It has lost its relevance just because it's posted so late.
Same has happened with the Fadnavis episode and so many other podcasts. That's terribly sad.
May be Smita madam also should adopt Gothams policy of not interrupting guests. Her over enthusiasm always takes over.
I agree with you
Havnt we been talking to pak for the last 75 yrs? What has it yielded? Are they ever planning to give us a route to Iran and central asia and middle east? No that would never happen. Literally since we stopped talking with pak where have we lost business or has it impacted us negatively? None at all. Let things be. Once pak grinds itself down we can pick up the pieces that we like and leave the rest to rot. After all keeping thr cancer out of the main body is wise no?
Every episode is a masterpiece! Love Smitaji's mature yet open conversational style.
I am shaking my head in disbelief listening to Sri Bambawale's comments regarding the possibility of trading with the Islamic Republic of Pakistan; expected something way better from a person who has served as Indian High Commisioner in IRP. Even when IRP was weak, it has never failed to cause harm to India. Only when it is really down on the mat, as it is now, will it reduce (on a relative scale) its interferene. If we make the mistake of resuming trade, which in turn will help IRP towards getting back on its feet, it will ratchet up sharply its attacks on India. Hence, if we care about our safety and security, we should not do even the littlest of things that is likely to help it. If we haven't learnt this lesson even after decades, centruries, and millennia of dealing with "the religion of peace(!)", then we'll have only ourselves to blame. Sushant Sareen is one of the few people who really understands IRP. Just blindly follow Sushant's advice to the letter as far as IRP is concerned. Never ever ever ever help IRP, unless you want the kiss of death.
Totally agree
America forced us to fall in love with Russia as America sent its 7th fleet to the Bay of Bengal in 1972.
Bcoz we were in soviet camp idiot.. learn some geopolitics.. dey wont do the same today.. nd ur so called russia is in total chinas camp now and we are economically totally under west camp presently governed by usa.. so things changes.. get used to it

Only one question how’s it’s good for India when Pakistan gets money through trade with other countries like Saudi or UAE ? Can’t we know where they use this money, are we forgetting those bomb blasts in every corner of the country? Of course we have habit of forgetting things
I dont understand this linkage that trade will bring peace. Look at how us strategy on china went belly up. I think india should be very careful opening trade with pakistan.

Correct Its not going to bring anything to us except trouble.
It's like we are paying our enemies to buy weapons to kill us.
I don't know why we have to trade with them
What fantasises theese Indian Diplomats have with Pakistan
I am watching from UK. Smita l have read your profile and was very impressed with what knowledge skill and experience you have gained over the years. I have stopped watching TV instead love watching all your podcast. I am 74 and learning alot about whats happening in India a country l love the most. I visit India every year and fill so much at home. Keep up the good work and good health and best wishes from UK.
I don't understand these policy experts. Despite their intelligence and experience, they want to again try the failed methods. You can't do the same thing again and expect different results. We gave Most-Friendly-Status to Pakistan in 1996, so trade relations will improve and Pak army will see the benefit of friendly relationship with India. But, Pak never reciprocated it, they used our trade, yet perpetrated numerous terror attacks since 1996, despite so many outreach by Atalji, Manmohan and Modi. It took us so many years to realize the nature of the pakistani state i.e.they beg when weak and spread terror when strong to exploit countries. We see this pattern for 70 years now, yet these intelligent people want good trade relationship with Pakistan. For what reason, so they can knife us in the back again once they get strong again?
India new strategy to keep Pakistan economically and politically isolated is the best and working to keep their terror complex weak. Hopefully, this will bring them to change, or at-least keep them busy so India can develop without terrorism issues.
So true. This raja seemed a jnu professor batting for indo pak relations. Fed up of this

C Raja Mohan sir❤❤❤❤
An excellent discussion! Raja Mohan Gandhi is just amazing! The Pakistanis were told that India was abysmally poor and weak while Pakistan was shining like a star high in the sky. It is dawning on these Pakistanis that India has gone so far ahead that Pakistan can never catch up. Who is to blame? Obviously, the Army, as they were the ones who claimed credit for every thing happening in that Country.
He is C Raja Mohan not Rajamohan Gandhi
Rajmohan Gandhi is an anti Hindu scoundrel just like Mohandas Gandhi
@@An11Ran okay
It's amazing the infatuation of this nation with Gandhi who was just a politician marketed by the British & it's Congress party as "Mahatma"!!
Excellent Smitha, one suggestion u could have dig deep with Gowtham on any first hand crisis,how it works from high commissioner's ofc,with Raja more on central Asia crisis...geo politics like Pak with turkey etc...
Bureaucrats and industry leaders make for best podcast guests. People who are actually in the thick of things. It gives us a peek into how things really happen.
I think professionals like Surgeons, Engineer working on cutting edge tech like Deep learning and AI, Scientist from different domains like theoretical physics, space, biomechanics etc could be great guests as well.
I personally like Indian podcasts more compared to western ones.
One concern that I have is usually we do not know the background of guests in enough detail to know about their biases.
It's excellent for Smitha to bring such professional guests and also knowledgable politicians we get a good information which normally we can't get through the debates which are really not palatable for our years by way of shouting from the debaters, buased politicians and analysts

One of the best programs on the assessment of situation in & around Pakistan. The participants' views & analysis are scintillating & spot on. Very well moderated by Samita Prakash.
Gautam is fantastic. Not a letter more and not a less. Just adequate.
The speakers had to be politically correct but the fact of the matter is Pakistan's only reason of survival is it's hate towards Bharat. Unless they drop that attitude and stop terrorism there is no way they are going to prosper.
Wat a pleasant experience to hear both this gem💎
Leave Pak in side, give money to afghans to keep pak busy on other side of the border, play with usa and use quad to keep check on China so that we can grow Economically at least 7-8% per year for 10-15 years so that we can at least have 7.5 to 10 Trillion Dollars of gdp and with that comes 150-200 billion dollars of defense budget.
Then India will be more of less Self Sufficient to take care of all sides of Self Interest

'Pakistanis always want to talk at the highest level...' common sense should tell one that it's a tactic of buying time and plain disinterest in peace with India. The guests keep repeating and hoping for 'common sense' to prevail in Pakistan. What the guests think is 'common sense' doesn't make sense to Pakistanis. Even going through that nation's RUclips videos should tell you that any sense there is wrapped around religious identity.
Pakistan is functioning exactly the way it was designed to be. Hate borne from religious identity, of having their 'divine right to rule' snatched from them and British machinations at moulding that hate when the seed was sown. A hate strong enough that they were willing to adopt 'Urdu' a UP dialect in order to claim the Mughal legacy. In the process, they jettisoned their own native tongues and killed 2-3 million Bengalis when they refused to do so. The poison is way too deep for anything to be done. Their army is only a reflection of the society, the recent church attacks should disabuse anyone of peaceful coexistence with Pakistan.
I'm disappointed that none of the guests wanted justice for the victims not only of 26/11 but of Gokul Chat, Ghatkopar train blasts, etc. I'm aghast that such policy makers are willing to overlook these for trade or some peace mirage and even more shocking, such people advice the Govt. of India. India gave Pakistan 'MFN' status for over 10 years with nothing to show for it. They should be talking about 'pay back' not 'common sense'. Looks like it is not so common after all.
I'm a South Indian and been studying Pakistan for a few years following that nation's atrocities on Indian soil.Pakistan is a mix of Shishupala, Jarasandha and Duryodhana. India has two choices, either quarantine it or destroy. My assessment is that India should be a Krishna who takes advantage when it presents itself rather than be a Arjuna who dithers in the middle of a battlefield.
Ambassador Gautam impressed 🙏
TOOOO GOOOOD
Smita brought in the RIGHT PEOPLE for the discussion.
RAJA MOHAN & GOUTAM BAMBAWALE !!!!!
And, Very Well Moderated by Smita.
No Trade with Punjab - mostly Terrorists. Why do both believe trade with Pak is better for India's peace?
I don't understand why India always wants to compare and compete with China on anything. Thus is because China is only interested in minding her own business and lifting more than 900 million Chinese people out of poverty. Under benign & great leader Xi Jinping, the Chinese people are enjoying a life of peace, prosperity and happiness. In fact, tourists from countries all over the world have vouched that today's China is the safest, cleanest and most peaceful country to visit in the world. So for India to compare and compete with China, India must first solve its poverty problem, improve its sanitation standard, clean its drinking wster and food and make its country safe and peaceful. Moreover, India's rail transport is a joke and outdated by ages compared to Vhina's High Speed Rail. Why can't India seek China,'s help to build its rail transport, like a good neighbour should? India and China should be good neighbours and friends,!

You dont do agressive, assertive interruptions ( which is India media style ) and you use subtle humour too.

Almost everything was said in English on this podcast. Don't know what you are talking about.
@ It's very clearly mentioned as the first line of my post, dear.
I think the word 'China' in title is misleading the conversation is fully focussed on Pakistan with token cpec question.
Fact is that Pakistan was indeed doing better than India in almost every parameter till end of 1990s:
PKR was better than INR.
Pak was world champion of hockey, cricket and squash simultaneously.
Their poverty was lower.
Their GDP per capita was higher.
Being friends with US, China and Europe while doing better economically coupled with superiority complex inherent to Islam - Pakistanis were figuratively on moon. Things have changed in next 25 years. That’s why it is hard for them to come to terms with India’s rise. Today, India is better than Pak on every parameter
They lost half of their country, lost multiple wars, killed multiple PMs etc etc, before 1990.
@@ABHISHEK0058 they were indeed small , in military might. They often did misadventures. They were no saints. I am only talking about their economic state. Helped by US and west, Pakistan was looked at as Asian Tiger. Almost all economic parameters were better than us. It is after Zia Ul Haq that they turned awry. PM hanged, strict Islam enforced. Then US also stopped helping them
Is shandar conversation ke liye Smitha ji aapka bahut bahut shukriya ambassador Bamwawale bilkul sahi point out Kiya"kisi nation ke liye economic common sense uske nationalisn ke integral part ki tarah hai. Sathi China ki economy jis crisis mein hai use suggestion dene ki jarurat nahin Hai.

I think it’s important for the current generation to know what road we have traveled. As a country we have come a long way !
It would be interesting to record the aspirations of current generation & check back when India turns 100. 😍
Aspirations of indian youth are lambourgani, designer clothes, good urban houses with club facilities,monikes,travel, they want to explore their own abilities, and the world space. Just having a profession is lower middle class aspiration now. Indians are ready to have higher income. They dream of western standards. Want latest in home decor. This creates huge potential for everyone. Archetects, designers, decorators,auto, businesses. Just being 4rth or 3rd largest economy is meaningless if our life style doesnot improve

From Pakistan great analysis. Everything truth and right. We people want relationship with India and no more kashmir rhetoric. It's not the people's narrative but our democracy is weak and we are helpless
What you, the people of Pakistan want doesn't matter; people's opinions are completely irrelevant in a dictatorship. And please be clear: Pakistan is NOT a democracy, never was. It is a military dictatorship, overtly or covertly such as now.
Fix your country, make it a real democracy where the military is under civilian control. Only then aspire to things that ordinary citizens of normal countries aspire to.

Your ancestors broke this country and went out , your country was born out of jealousy and hatred towards our country, your country tried every trick in the book to harm my country.

The core of PAK issue now is they thinking that they are equal to India and they are unable to get out of that mindset. During early days, PAK enjoyed US support and free money in billions. In this, they didn't even think about developing PAK with industries and economy. It was always dependent on funds from outside. Now that the funds have dried up they are shown the reality of PAK. China's exponential growth and taking on US has forced the US to shift from PAK towards India as only India can counter China in the region. Even US (whole world) knows that PAK will sleep with anyone for money and can't be trusted.

With much gratitude to Smitha Prakash for getting these two immensely informed and experienced gentlemen to talk about what they know like the back of their hands.
Many opinions, that have been based on incomplete information, misinformation have been dissipated by these soft spoken gentlemen.
The NRI remittance to India has crossed $100billion. But Indias import deficet with china has also crossed $100billion. How do you think those NRI's feel when their hard earned money is shamelessly given to the chinese because the Indian businessman is too lazy to produce his own things. Infact India gives china free money for them to wage aggression on India. That is a noval thing and so stupid.

Great sincere talk....just one correction....
Imran Khan as PM in his initial popular speech had offered to go two steps for one step from India like building Kartaarpoor for our Sikh brothers but his sincere, upfront stance was not reciprocated by the Indian govt to start the long awaited dialogue. Still it,s always a right thing to stop hating each other and think of solving the socio-economic issues of our marginilised people on both sides. Its a huge discussion which must continue with open minds..... Let,s hope for mutual respect & better things to lead our relations after 2024 elections in both countries.
Atleast people on both sides are not aliens to each other and are still using the words Maamoo, Chaachoo, Baaji, Guddoo...😅😅😂❤❤❤🙏🙏
If Sikhs are your brothers, when’s a Sikh going to be next PM in Pakistan? Ye bewakuf banana band karo. Tumhari asliyat sabko pata h idhar.
I feel Gen Bajwa played the same game in 2021 which Bhutto played in !972. Pakistan was able to get a cease fire when they were really hard pressed to find means to sustain the cross border firing. We have provided them breathing space to recover. Whereas we should put pressure on them and make them totally bankrupt.
Why should we do trade with jihadi? Can anyone explain how much trade we do with jihadi?
I have a difference in opinion but enjoyed the discussion with the great Indian minds. Thank you for the classified Indian view of international affairs.

Why should Pakistan stop terrorism it's snakes nature to bite it will not stop. It's should with India to make sure that it kills the snake
As someone who began his career repairing IBM junk,I can tell you it was the best decision they took.IBM's departure gave birth to many new Indian companies -ORG,CMC,CMS,HCL etc."Mini " computer companies such as Wang,Data General,Prime etc made computing more affordable .Subsequently the arrival of the IBM PC,soon made by many Taiwanese companies,the Windows Operating System by Microsoft,-all these enable India to move ahead.Rajiv Gandhi's open attitude to computerisation (inspite of dire warnings by the usual naysayers -CPI/CPM etc also helped.
