There is NO OTHER country on earth that has the amount of ethnic, religious, linguistic diversity and yet functioning as an all-inclusive democracy!! Poverty exists in all countries including the US of A! The point is there is still scope of social mobility and things are a lot better than how it was decades back and still improving.
@@youngz13o Everything has to be seen in context! Considering the population of India (1.3 billion total with nearly 200+ million Muslims), the number of deaths in riots is micro minuscule!! The fact is, the vast majority of Muslims live peacefully and practice their faith without any hassle whatsoever!! This includes Muslims of all types (Shia, Sunni etc). On the contrary, even in the Muslim country of Pakistan, more Muslims die from Sunni Muslim radicals targetting Shia Muslims. In fact, all thru the Muslim world, the Shia and Sunni have problems co-existing!!
@@youngz13o Almost all politicians of power in India today are from lower castes! Even India's current Prime Minister is from a lower caste. His father was a poor tea-seller and he too sold Tea at the train station when he was young!!
Looks like the documentary is from 2007. The situation in 2021 has still not changed. The same amount of economic disparity still exists due to caste, religion as I see, if not more. One thing that the presenter did not touch is language and regional disparity.

The first time I went to China, a long time ago, people had a rural or urban identity card. That meant that rural people weren't allowed to move to cities and get better jobs, so there was mass, domestic illegal immigration.

It is highly embarrassing to see cast system is still in place in India. We all are humans, no one is higher or lower. There will never be a revolution in India. This is 20th century, the whole globe is moving on while India is still stuck in way.🙁
Vandana Shiva is a spokes person for India organic food. Wild farmland feed animals and people with little to no intervention. Farmers would not be forced to rely on money for crops.
This is something every developing country has to go through. When prices of food grains fall, small farmers cannot stay in business. They have to learn new trades and move on to new skills. It is painful, but it has to be done. What the Govt. can do is to subsidize fertilizers and stuff the farmers need. But eventually small farmers have to move out.
To be taken over by whom/what - foreign agribusiness corporations like those controlled by the likes of Bill Gates? India needs food security and that isn't going to come from for‐profit corporations monopolising access to the seeds, fertiliser, herbicides and farming equipment that farmers need for their livelihood and imposing top down industrial agriculture on countries where it might not be suitable, is damaging to the environment and makes millions of farmers and their families destitute.

I thought I knew India and I went to Rishikesh and saw naked bosom of beautiful Indian women bathing in the Ganges... And I asked WHY... That is a group of Indian Pilgrims and their custom is so ... Everywhere else in India is this forbidden...

Except unlike Black Americans, Muslims or hell even the lower caste of India are still be discriminated against on a massive scale, personally and systemically.
How can India take pride of their wealth and development when their poor is so enormous & pitiful. The wealthy don't care about their poor & despair. Such a shame !
Even developed countries doesnt care about Developing countries. Many developed countries exploit developing by pushing for cheap manufacturing labours in china or exploiting resources. Eg., is Cobalt where child are used and no developed nation knows it! This is same as that.
I wish they would say when the video was made and not when they put it on youtube , this is from sometime between 2011 and 2013 the time when Mr A Kumar was industry minister in India .
We know the Indian caste system has lasted for centuries, but, after 200 (+-) years of being ruled by the British, the British leaving & partition one would think that the caste system would be a bygone thing.........but humans being humans there will, no matter where, those who are on "top" & those (majority) forced to the bottom........but, for me at 74 the irony is, the "superior" ones dislike / hate, ALL of us POC, no matter who we are, where we are or our histories.....with that in mind uniting is the ignored answer.
Having so many people Indian government should have invested so much in agriculture to feed its malnourished people and uplifting the livelihood of slum people
100,000 farmers took their lives in a 10 year period......that's awful and the government and rich are to blame. This is wrong on many different levels
Sorry to say but if you live in poverty having more children to suffer with you is just insane! Don't have kids if you can't afford to support yourselves. Use your heads, more children means more responsibility and costs more. Why in GODS name would you do that to yourself and most of all put innocent children through that!? People never seem to amaze me anymore but the stupidity does!
When that sincere soul of poor native indian woman said "Tell me in which way India booming? It might be booming for rich people. They are the that progressing. The goverment, I dont know what they're doing. Its only satisfying the rich whereby itd the same for the poor 25 - 30 years back. As she said it, I felt that Im having a flashback and share her anger and disappointment. I cant explain why?
Why should everyone else help them it's up to their government instead of financing space and nuclear weapons put the money into the people and stop expecting others to feed them

an old documentary from 2007
The renowned agricultarist, M.S. Swaminathan has an astute understanding of the Indian reality and its crazy economic policies followed by the government which is deliberately fine tuned to the interests of Corporates. India will soon be ruined if corrective steps are not initiated to support the farmers who account for more than half the population of India ; and providing food for the entire nation are left in the lurch. Thousand kudos to M.S.S.
India is wonderful nation Foreigners in India Hindu Temples so wonderful from Karachi to Kanyakumari
Why does it look like it was filmed in 1998?
2007
Information technology.. call centers 🤣🤣😭you cracked me up there.

@@joshc3466 get a life man !

This documentary is about everything else except the title! I waited for 45 minutes for them to even mention Dharavi!! Ridiculous
The lady in this vedio of the Darabi slum is really smart woman.
Thanks lot for sharing brother
you can put lipstick on a pig and it will still be a pig!

Satisfying your sponsors by posting the old videos again? Carry on, still we shall rock and come over all the hurdles ahead to be equal super power with others.
Meanwhile India's medical system is collapsing & people are literally dying on the streets from covid & getting black fungus in their brains. You need a wake up call. India needs to really examine their backwards values and hygiene practices.
Wonderful host
Keep feeling happy with this old documentary of 2003. Meanwhile upto 2021 India built 13 Metro trains in 13 metro cities others are under construction, India has recently completed World's tallest Railway bridge, India is constructing megaprojects of Highways, Bullet trains in between major metro cities. IMF projects India's GDP 12.5% Largest compare to whole Global nations...
That's all great. I assume along with this progress, India has also done much to reduce poverty and inequality ?
@@pauljohn3230 270 millions Indians come out poverty...meanwhile in USA some psycho killed 100s of people in Mall, galleria and crowded streets of New york.
Very good progress in the name of forced eviction, forced buying of land, high amount of death and suicide that the government doesn't care about. Oh how many politicians have been killed because of Indias progress?
The problem with India is, people's life is meaningless aslong as the government is happy.
@@indiaview9414 You seem quite insecure... btw, I'm not American.
@@indiaview9414 my heart skipped a beat and I thought this is from 2021..glad it is from 2003
VERY DIRTY EVERYWHERE
old footage 2002 India
It is highly embarrassing to see cast system is still in place in India. We all are humans, no one is higher or lower. There will never be a revolution in India. This is 20th century, the whole globe is moving on while India is still stuck in way.🙁
USA has a caste system. They call it racism.
Vandana Shiva is a spokes person for India organic food. Wild farmland feed animals and people with little to no intervention. Farmers would not be forced to rely on money for crops.
Abolish of. Zamindar system
Nice program
nice video but what is the time frame or year of it's prodution?
This video 20 years ago
Great story & interview. I hope to see more of this content. And with persistence your video's will change a lot of which is wrong with society.
Yes she is right.. Economy is blooming and India is shining for riches not for poor..
SHINING IN POVERTY AND DIRTINESS
@@cristearoxanadaniela7845 Shining in expressways, metros and bullet trains.
This is messed up atleast give the poor a descent wage to live on i could not in good conscience be rich and not help the poor i drive by everyday
I cant believe it is that dirty why why they need to help the poor ..its not fair at all.I would not want to go there its to dirty....
Can't eat money. Can't drink money. Can't breathe money.
This is something every developing country has to go through. When prices of food grains fall, small farmers cannot stay in business. They have to learn new trades and move on to new skills. It is painful, but it has to be done. What the Govt. can do is to subsidize fertilizers and stuff the farmers need. But eventually small farmers have to move out.
To be taken over by whom/what - foreign agribusiness corporations like those controlled by the likes of Bill Gates? India needs food security and that isn't going to come from for‐profit corporations monopolising access to the seeds, fertiliser, herbicides and farming equipment that farmers need for their livelihood and imposing top down industrial agriculture on countries where it might not be suitable, is damaging to the environment and makes millions of farmers and their families destitute.
I wish there was a programme showing the
Bag of ice to keep them preserved.. lol for one more hour 😅
I have lived 10 years in India... First, you do have to understand the people. And if you do so, you will never find such huge variety of people anywhere in the world... For instance, Varanasi is the living hell and the living paradise... Varansi is awful and so beautiful... Never you will find such polarity anywhere in the world... I thought I knew India and I went to Rishikesh and saw naked bosom of beautiful Indian women bathing in the Ganges... And I asked WHY... That is a group of Indian Pilgrims and their custom is so ... Everywhere else in India is this forbidden...
Good investigation it was posted in 2021 but the copyright dated 2007, some info may be obsolete.
meh, the condition barely changed
Yeah needs more brooms, mops, vacuums, rumbas, brushes, combs, scrapers, and sponges
This is all terrible for the environment, Indias "boom" is destroying the planet. Industrial society is destroying the planet, time to destroy the technophiles destroying the planet
The lady in yellow at 0:37 summed it up quite well.
“Proving that husween has been discriminated against is impossible but they feel like they’re the victim” 😂😂😂😂😂😂 where does that sound familiar
Except unlike Black Americans, Muslims or hell even the lower caste of India are still be discriminated against on a massive scale, personally and systemically.
This documentary was about everything else BUT Dharavi
Does anyone know when exactly this Documentary was recorded?
He said president George Bush so I am guessing 2004-2007
@@mrnarason Ahh cheers dude
How can India take pride of their wealth and development when their poor is so enormous & pitiful. The wealthy don't care about their poor & despair. Such a shame !
Even developed countries doesnt care about Developing countries. Many developed countries exploit developing by pushing for cheap manufacturing labours in china or exploiting resources. Eg., is Cobalt where child are used and no developed nation knows it!
This is same as that.
Two Decade old documentary. Indian has changed a lot in 2021.
i think this documentary is filmed more than 15 years ago, in these 15 years india has changed drastically.
I wish they would say when the video was made and not when they put it on youtube , this is from sometime between 2011 and 2013 the time when Mr A Kumar was industry minister in India .
Please change the title, the content doesn't have any connection with title
The real face of India not alone for the Muslims but for all the lower coasts.
We know the Indian caste system has lasted for centuries, but, after 200 (+-)
years of being ruled by the British, the British leaving & partition one would
think that the caste system would be a bygone thing.........but humans
being humans there will, no matter where, those who are on "top" & those
(majority) forced to the bottom........but, for me at 74 the irony is, the
"superior" ones dislike / hate, ALL of us POC, no matter who we are, where
we are or our histories.....with that in mind uniting is the ignored answer.
Having so many people Indian government should have invested so much in agriculture to feed its malnourished people and uplifting the livelihood of slum people
100,000 farmers took their lives in a 10 year period......that's awful and the government and rich are to blame. This is wrong on many different levels
6:05 George Bush? Is this documentary from 2004 or something?
The farmers suicide happens also due to the shortage of labour force due to urban migration. People who can't change themselves suffer.
Very nice documentary
Her English communication skills..OP ..shows the amount govt focus on education fr all
Sorry to say but if you live in poverty having more children to suffer with you is just insane! Don't have kids if you can't afford to support yourselves. Use your heads, more children means more responsibility and costs more. Why in GODS name would you do that to yourself and most of all put innocent children through that!? People never seem to amaze me anymore but the stupidity does!
geez, how old is this video ...
how old is this documentary ??? no mention of it here
I have a question.. Krishnan Gurumurthy... Are you brother of Mrs Gurumurthy who reads BBC news?
this development video is shot in 2001-02 ....which means its 20 years old.
It's from around 2006 -2007 I guess. Look at the dhoom 2 poster
Modi failed the people of Yindia.
when this video was captured ? it seems like an old captures
When that sincere soul of poor native indian woman said "Tell me in which way India booming? It might be booming for rich people. They are the that progressing. The goverment, I dont know what they're doing. Its only satisfying the rich whereby itd the same for the poor 25 - 30 years back.
As she said it, I felt that Im having a flashback and share her anger and disappointment. I cant explain why?
Please help the poor folks
Why should everyone else help them it's up to their government instead of financing space and nuclear weapons put the money into the people and stop expecting others to feed them
