+Baja Govindam Unfortunately, I have pressed the wrong button that's why your reply gone to the spam or abuse... Sorry for that!!! Getting to the point.... According to me "we" means Indians who liked her ministerial-ship
***** though I have no business in this matter, let me begin by saying, I was scrolling on the comments of this interview, where I chanced upon your altercation with one sudip patra. I felt your stance was right! But, must say, going through this loose comment, am extremely disappointed..Perhaps, this is how one gets mis-interpreted. Its not that the individual is a thorough evil; he / she must have just slipped that particular day / moment! Hope to see the Brighter and more rational version of you... Wishing you the Best
***** yay! Smriti - we're happy that you're doing nothing for students in gujrat who're becoming morons thanks to unscientific morons appointed directly by you!! Why do we care if the earth is flat or round - as long as we can sit here and cheer as your minions.
I don't wanna comment on her competency for being HRD minister. But I really wanna praise her for her communication skills both in Hindi and English. She speaks really nice and influence listener. She doesn't seems to be higher secondary grad and speaks much better than a post graduate politicians.
Smriti Irani resembles an armor which withstands all attacks and criticism. I liked the way she braved the moronic and monotonous questions of Arnab Goswami. Mr. Goswami, is RSS a banned organization, that you have so much problems with it? Is Mr. Dinanath Batra a convict, that you are tacitly asking Smriti Irani to shun him. Smriti Irani is a Superhit both in acting and politics.
অরুণ বাঙালি হিন্দু Because, I perceive that you are making an attempt to suppress the role of media and, simply praising the people in power. We need to question them and keep them alert in order to derive best service from them. People like you and me, in fact over 90% of the population, do not have a medium or privilege to question the politicians in this manner. So, we have to support the media which is representing the common man, especially the middle class person like me.
***** Yes brother. Our country needs growth and development, badly. It is an inevitable duty as a citizen of India to encourage the politicians/people who are making efforts to our growth and development. There is not an iota of contention in that argument. For this growth and development, we need well-qualified, dignified, honest, matured people in power who can take path-breaking decisions quickly for the welfare of all rather than just for one section of society. We should not encourage any govt where the power is highly centralized under one person, and who lacks the aforesaid qualities. Nothing would change on ground, until we change our mindset and elect right people. 10 months have passed since this govt. came into power. I feel that the 'ache din' came only to the people in the govt. and, it had not extended to the common citizen yet. Especially the middle class and the below section are still waiting eagerly for their 'ache din'. Now, it seems to be a mirage. I request you to look at the ground realities rather than superficial rhetoric statements of politicians before you conclude that he/she is helping this country grow. Thanks !
***** Sorry for addressing you incorrectly ! I'm happy to see your reply. However, I partially agree to your point that we need to give time to see the improvement and development that we want. Just to have a constructive debate, I made the following points: To counter your argument that enhancing relations and increasing foreign tours would create jobs, I would say, it will not. The reason being that until and unless the basic conditions are improved at domestic level, no investor will come and invest here. For example, check out the condition of road connectivity in India. Moreover, investors do not merely come on the basis of friendship or foreign visits because investments come with certain expectation of return based on several exogenous factors such as aggregate demand, cash flows etc. Therefore, your argument would have been valid. even partially, had our country been developed and advanced like Germany or, promising and conducive like China. It is a bit disheartening to see your comment which is oblivious to the tremendous contribution that 130-year-old Congress Party had made to the development of India. Green revolution, Liberalization, MNREGA, Telecom revolution, Aadhaar, Mid-day meals are some of the significant achievements of this Party. Unfortunately, the tolerable zone of the Party is so large, unlike communal parties, that it led to its own debacle. However, I do agree that the current Congress party has lost its sheen and need new blood leadership badly, to revive its ideology. I want to brief you about ache din: zero crime, declining income inequality, social security, employment opportunities as per the qualification, clean and cheap public transport, education and healthcare, price stability in essential commodities essentially food items et cetera. I hope you are not lost with this reading, and can see yourself and measure the ache din on these attributes. Finally, I request you again, not to succumb to the superficial rhetoric of the political statements by blindly following the links that you have given in your comment, and contend yourself that everything is going fine. Look through the end, and meanwhile, try to quantify the development by looking at the changes in the human development indicators. Thanks!
You are a hard nut smriti. Rss person ,acting career to an Hrd minister....Impressive !! This interview will bring in lot of people who will support u in what u do.Good luck!
Mrinal Rai I am convinced with the answers and can understand her views. This has never been an interivew, but, a monolog initially, whereby Mr. Arnab trying to prove his point. As it continues, the platform become a place for debate and such a platform can be progressed/concluded with facts to facts and point to points which led this interview all together to the end. But I expected the interview to be more future oriented to understand the plans and actions. However these are my views and I respect your views as a citizen of India.
Dina Nath Batra ji is Pride of our education system. he knows pulse of Education. I have been his student and proud to be his student in SMB Geeta Sr Sec school Kurukshetra
Smriti Irani was too direct and straight as an arrow during the interview, while Arnab unsuccessfully kept trying to mingle up one instance with the other. Her boss calls her his sister and she values it so much, which was great to hear at the end. A minister doesn't essentially require to be highly educated to run a good ministry, rather intentions and convictions matter. Policies are after all made by the bureaucrats who are highly educated anyways. An educated but failed education minister during the UPA's rule proves the point that education does not equal wisdom and intelligence.
Smiriti Irani has too much self control. Kudos to her for bearing the Pangs of this irritating man. This man is so opinionated that he is deaf to any clarifications given even it were to be written in blood.
Great answered by smriti Irani.. Arnab body language shows he totally banged.. The way Smriti speaks, she could be the next face of BJP after Narendra Modi.. One thing i noticed during her interview was that she is not giving her opinion for some issues highlighted by Arnab.. I think she doesn't want to create any controversies with RSS by giving opinion and Arnab is fail to getting opinion from her..
Smriti Irani was very articulate, honest and extremely intelligent. Arnab Goswami tried his best to yank her chain but she never lost her composure. To Ms. Irani's credit this interview proves a simple but very powerful life lesson. If you are honest to your job and have facts on your side your defense is impregnable. The occasional tough and often rhetorical questions from Arnab was met with hard facts that completely deflated the prejudiced and preconceived premise in Mr. Goswami's questions. Prime Minister Modi must be commended for inducting Ms.Irani in his cabinet despite the rhetoric with regards to her lack of credentials. Just proves that a piece of paper with a university degree printed on it is not the only yardstick to measure caliber. India need strong, unapologetic leaders who places the interest and development of the country ahead of personal gains. The young educated voters of India can no longer be taken for granted and the country under the current leadership is headed on the right path, free from the shackles of monarchy style governance that pillaged the country during the last 60+ years.
I love the last 3 min conversation. really smriti we miss u in newshour and fight with arnab. great interview ...arnab was at his best...and smriti was awesome.
Whosoever raised doubt about Smiriti Irani abilities must see #SmritiRoastsArnab. Wao great :) How to snub #Pressitutes without being rude and just be humble!!! Well done Mam. :)
it is not wonder as afterall she is great acctres what greatnes she is possising otherthan being stounch rss pracharak by implimenting or immposing hinduthva prgromes in her hrd ministry
TIMES NOW Good work, Arnab. Please keep it up and continue the momentum. Don't give regard to negative comments. Those who understand the role of people specified in our Constitution will appreciate your work. And, God save the rest for their ignorance.
***** exactly so..constructed history.. every one has tried that..certainly colonial power..then congress..and now BJP..every one has tried to rewrite our history such that they can build India in their own ways..hopefully we dont give up fighting them back..
I reckon both Arnab and Smriti were in the elements! Thanks to a journalist like Arnab who put out the tough, unsavory questions, that equally competent people like Smriti get to shine in full strength. Good Job both of you! Thank you for being Inspirations in your respective fields! More Power to you both!
Bravo Smriti - Really proud of you mam the way you took questions from Arnab and answer each of them factually and Arnab @ the end has to accept that you did it well... My only question to Arnab - if possible, try and do some research on our education system that is place post independence... The said so called "Secular" system of education was designed by Macole who was sent by British Parliament by passing a resolution (copy of the same is available online) that systematically break the back bone of Indian's rich heritage and cultural history by tampering with factual historical info and design history in such a way where Indian doesnt feel good about their history... Why in today's education we do not have similar history highlighting true heros of india - if u go to Japan or US or England.. their history has all positive and something where citizens take pride upon... but Indian history (that too only some 300 yrs old) has all the in-fights that took place after Invaders came into India.. but none are showing history that has 10000 yrs of rich heritage ... and if some one tries to.. then they are labeled as communal?
Arnab needs to go back to NDTV for an internship to learn how a journalist needs to moderate interviews .. He just knows how to wrongly use his media power to dictate his view with noise and illogical screaming.. Good that Smriti Irani showed him who's the boss!!!
***** If you have ever watched his debate long enough, you would appreciate his logic. No hard and fast rules for Journalism... 10-15 years of NDTV Journalism, did the corruption stop? Just 4 years of Arnab's journalism and I see so much impact in terms of scrutiny and visibility. NDTV didn't highlight corruption as it should have. It was debated with the same tone and tenor as they would debate about SRKs next movie if not less...
***** Everyone will talk like this... but they will prefer to watch gossip/entertainment news VS Nepal earthquake victims. First we need to change... then we can talk about others. If you want to help, donate some money rather than pointing fingers.
***** I have seen Arnab goswami absolutely thrashing congress as well as bjp representatives. Arnab is not like congress thugs, Prannoy, Rajdeep, Ravish kumar or Barkha dutt who are always downplaying or hiding congress's incompetence and apathy for development. Arnab goswami is a lot better than other english anchors/reporters. I know his critics blame him for shouting and screaming and histrionics but one thing is for sure that he is harsh on all the parties, when those parties are in the wrong. Arnab is not like congress thugs , Prannoy roy or, barkha dutt, Ravish kumar or rajdeep who try to give an easy way out to congress representatives and are always trying to humiliate BJP and other hindutva supporters because it is cool and trendy to be anti-hindutva . Unfortunately this trend has become widespread that u can look more secular if u speak against hindutva. For most English journalists especially at NDTV, secularism means lambasting hindtva philosophy and branding hindutva philosophy as regressive and non-secular.
Arnab finally met a person of his caliber! Very nice interview and Smriti proved that she is the right choice for HRD ministry. Congratulations madam Irani! I like the way you honestly respond to the questions. Wish you all the best for a successful tenure.
+Soorma Hindustani i aint any party supporter i think all of them are full of shit bjp congress cpm tmc all are same for me bro/sis whoever or whatever u are no hard feelings ✌
she is strong and cool in answering .. These interviewers are trying to put their words in mouth of others . I dont say they should ask but if by slip of toungue we say yes,then they will prove they are right.. I have seen interviews in BBC and uk channels and its all straight forward
Smriti was too calm .. she should have slammed arnab for persistently saying that she was not answering the question inspite of answering. arnab is the biggest dumbo ..
***** It's really preposterous when the media tries to represent the voice of people by projecting a particular stand(which is their's and not essentially popular) on an issue to be the stand of the entire country. Arnab is no different.
Despite all the needless 'controversies' created by the media, Smriti Irani is only going stronger. You just can NOT deny it. Brave & intelligent. And yeah, 'leftists' & 'centrists' & 'secularists' can now bark below!
Smriti Irani - What an awe-inspiring lady. Her conviction and tenacity in argument is commendable. For once, Arnab was taken to task. She indeed epitomizes the Modern day, contemporary woman. Fantastic.
Smriti Irani will possibly emerge as the best HRD Minister in times to come..Such "Monologue" shows cannot dampen her spirits ! And I am still to discover what good such shows have done to citizens..Except inflating their own bank balances.Proud of u Mam !
Well irrespective of the fray of questions, the one thing that I cannot stop appreciating about both of them is their body language and the art of keeping their point with a straight face and cool tempers. Their wittiness should serve this interview as a benchmark class not only for wannabe journalists and politicians , but for anyone who wants to reap the benefits of their experience of being "in the field " for years on serving and taking attacks and counterattacks.
Kudos to Smriti Irani . Arnab has lost it. There are no specifics no policy discussion just a blame game of questions. Times now need to up their game to ask more intelligent question on policies rather than trying to make interviewees speak what Arnab wants to hear. People of India cannot be fooled with opinions by petty interviewers. This is an interview not a court of law where Arnab is passing his judgement.
This interview is more of a single point attempt at RSS bashing attempt and persistent argumentative approach rather than trying to get know what the Minister has in her mind as the roadmap for education. Well done Ms. Smriti Irani
Smriti you were brilliant. Arnob ... you had nothing to pin her down. You are losing your mojo man! Seriously... what happened to you? Your debates are more and more meaningless, fact-less and howling & shouting & the moment someone tries to clarify a point to you, you cut him! There was a time i won't miss your debate and now "frankly speaking" i don't care!
Brother, are you cognizant of the implied meaning of your comment? You made an attempt to completely negate the democracy and the basic structure of our constitution. It is we ,the common people who suffer the most, if the persons come to power only to take revenge as you stated. Please don't make loose statements which will degrade your value.
Arnab interviews Digvijay Singh and everyone calls him a BJP spokesman. Arnab interviews Smriti Irani, and people think he needs to go back to NDTV. Just let him do his job, he's supposed to ask tough questions.
#ArnabGoswami out of his elements. Forcing his rehearsed sentences like #RaGa! He lacked specifics. When managed specifics the answers stumped him. After getting stumped he kept forcing his words through. In short #ArnabGoswami completely owned by Smriti Irani.
Baja Govindam As intended. Can't expect to give #ArnabGoswami any better. I'd love to hear what you have to say about him after listening to this interview.
Mayank Kumar I sense that it has become a habit of economically privileged people to simply make comments on others, without a purpose. Anything without a purpose is a garbage !! No offense brother ! I request you to force/direct your critic attitude towards the right people so that less-privileged section like me, the middle-class, will be benefited too from the policies of the govt. After all, this would help reduce the inequality in the society and, you too would serve the purpose. If my above words are perplexing you, here is the gist - Just support the media which is representing our interests and ideas through constructive criticism, since neither of us have the privilege to question the elected people.
Your comments make certain assumptions about me which are incorrect. I have no interest in clarifying them since you are choosing to step outside the realm of the actual debate and make it personal. I'm afraid you don't seem to have understood my remarks. No where in my comments have I passed any remark about this govt or its policies. My critique on #ArnabGoswami stems from observing him for over 2 years now on Frankly Speaking and Newshour. Two different people may watch the same thing but develop different opinions about it. I appreciate you having a different opinion about him. And what makes you believe that media is representing your interests mate? They are running a business which is a for profit organization. Now tell me what they will maximize for.
Mayank Kumar My point is simple. Don't discourage the media which is a sole platform and a big opportunity for us to question the people in power. I agree that media is not a non-profit organization. But this statement cannot be made the reason for directing our criticism towards their action, because, our lives are impacted and dictated by the policies taken by the govt. So, if we discourage the media, which is trying hard to make the People in Power understand that the whole nation is watching them closely, with purposeless comments, we will be the ultimate losers.
Did times Now take an interview of Congressmen on why dawood was left by them??did times now take an interview on why Aamir khan made PK? this channel seems to be backed by congress completely
#presstitues So Mr.Arnab if you teach a kid to blow a candle, you are a Secular person. why should we not teach Indian Traditions in INDIA??? Why did we fight for freedom at all if we still wanna stay slaves to colonial thinking?
Smriti Irani Kicked ass in that interview! Arnab couldn't have been more out-of-place in his questions! A typical Presstitute! New found respect for Irani today!
The Fact of the matter is that Smriti Irani was a Great actor when she was working as one and she is a great politician, debator, communicator and administrator as I see her now !!! Good interview by Arnab (barring ofcourse the "rhetorics" that HE was actually throwing at Smriti) ! :-)
this guy gives me a headache! ....he doesn't listens, yahan pe bhi bus blah blah blah! he reads his questions and then doesn't let smriti to speak. shouldn't this be monologue by arnab???
She is actually behaving like a lawyer.... Though she handled the questions really well, but I am not convinced with her replies.... Her ministry has certainly supported favoritism.... As Arnab said, her answers are rhetoric but lacks conviction....
Subrata Shaw Akash Balaji Birajdar Brothers, I perceive that your education is insufficient and ineffective for you to understand the meaning in the comments made by +Anuradha Ravi. Please see my other comments if you feel you need clarification. Thanks !
Arnab..All the comments positive or nagative ..we all enjoy your bravery show.. so we watch show and give you comment bad or good.... Your the braves India citizen.. Keep it on.. Great fans of yours Facebook.. Alx hatzaw..

Baja Govindam what is fanaticism according to u sickulars let me also know
+Baja Govindam Unfortunately, I have pressed the wrong button that's why your reply

I don't wanna comment on her competency for being HRD minister. But I really wanna praise her for her communication skills both in Hindi and English. She speaks really nice and influence listener. She doesn't seems to be higher secondary grad and speaks much better than a post graduate politicians.
Arnab, you have completely lost the battle. Smriti rocks the show
arnab is like always, unnecessary rude. but loved the way smriti irani spoke. so calm, so composed. !
ashish agrawal Practice makes the man perfect. You too can speak with practice and rehearsal. Good luck brother.
Baja Govindam hey there,, there is a famous page on facebook 'aap chutiye hai'.. try n visit it sometimes. fun it is.
ashish agrawal Awesome reply to a person who has got all the time on the earth to tell everyone wrong and not see good part of it.

ashish agrawal Good one..Ashish ..If required , we can create a specific one for Baja Govindam :D
That was an awesome interview. Smirti Irani is an awesome speaker ...she has long way to go
Arnab can avoid Smriti's answers, but Smriti can't avoid Arnab's answers? Wow
Smriti Irani resembles an armor which withstands all attacks and criticism. I liked the way she braved the moronic and monotonous questions of Arnab Goswami.

My respect for Mrs. Irani just increased tremendously.

One thing i noticed during her interview was that she is not giving her opinion for some issues highlighted by Arnab.. I think she doesn't want to create any controversies with RSS by giving opinion and Arnab is fail to getting opinion from her..
Arnab : Are you "Rude"?
Smriti : Look who's talking. -_-
Its same like frankly speaking with RAGA,its just quite opposite,Arnab seems like Rahul over here
lol right

Wow! This video has put an end to all the questions in my mind regarding Ms. Irani's competence.
Good one...I like Smriti Irani when she asks Arnab to be specific on the questions and asking examples...
Bravo Smriti - Really proud of you mam the way you took questions from Arnab and answer each of them factually and Arnab @ the end has to accept that you did it well... My only question to Arnab - if possible, try and do some research on our education system that is place post independence...

As usual arnab is deaf for truth, well done smriti mam you answered him very well
Bow down to the Lioness!

Baja Govindam And who the hell on this world are you. What facts have you got?Please enlighten 'US'.
Baja Govindam Seems to be just another ignorant and a blind media pressitute fanatic ghost, Puneet Gupta.
Sorry Baja Govindam. :)
Arnab needs to go back to NDTV for an internship to learn how a journalist needs to moderate interviews .. He just knows how to wrongly use his media power to dictate his view with noise and illogical screaming.. Good that Smriti Irani showed him who's the boss!!!
***** If you have ever watched his debate long enough, you would appreciate his logic. No hard and fast rules for Journalism... 10-15 years of NDTV Journalism, did the corruption stop? Just 4 years of Arnab's journalism and I see so much impact in terms of scrutiny and visibility. NDTV didn't highlight corruption as it should have. It was debated with the same tone and tenor as they would debate about SRKs next movie if not less...
I disagree with your views.
*****" How are you brother? Why have you made my comments invisible??
***** Everyone will talk like this... but they will prefer to watch gossip/entertainment news VS Nepal earthquake victims. First we need to change... then we can talk about others. If you want to help, donate some money rather than pointing fingers.
***** I have seen Arnab goswami absolutely thrashing congress as well as bjp representatives. Arnab is not like congress thugs, Prannoy, Rajdeep, Ravish kumar or Barkha dutt who are always downplaying or hiding congress's incompetence and apathy for development.
Arnab goswami is a lot better than other english anchors/reporters. I know his critics blame him for shouting and screaming and histrionics but one thing is for sure that he is harsh on all the parties, when those parties are in the wrong. Arnab is not like congress thugs , Prannoy roy or, barkha dutt, Ravish kumar or rajdeep who try to give an easy way out to congress representatives and are always trying to humiliate BJP and other hindutva supporters because it is cool and trendy to be anti-hindutva .
Unfortunately this trend has become widespread that u can look more secular if u speak against hindutva. For most English journalists especially at NDTV, secularism means lambasting hindtva philosophy and branding hindutva philosophy as regressive and non-secular.
Arnab finally met a person of his caliber! Very nice interview and Smriti proved that she is the right choice for HRD ministry. Congratulations madam Irani! I like the way you honestly respond to the questions. Wish you all the best for a successful tenure.
Awesome interview. Proud to be Indian with people like Arnab holding these officials responsible.
she has become eloquent 😜 and improved her vocab 😂
the Yale degree effect 😂😂
+Ravi Singh She went to Yale?
+Soorma Hindustani yeah for a week 😅
power even gets u degree in a week 😜
+Soorma Hindustani i aint any party supporter
i think all of them are full of shit
bjp congress cpm tmc all are same for me bro/sis
whoever or whatever u are
no hard feelings ✌
+Soorma Hindustani FYI she definitely didnt give GMAT for sure
she is strong and cool in answering .. These interviewers are trying to put their words in mouth of others . I dont say they should ask but if by slip of toungue we say yes,then they will prove they are right.. I have seen interviews in BBC and uk channels and its all straight forward
cochin007 What a description !! - Strong and cool ?? Very useful to describe a chilled coca cola bottle. But, absolutely not a person. :P
Splendid presentation by Smriti..
Smriti was too calm .. she should have slammed arnab for persistently saying that she was not answering the question inspite of answering. arnab is the biggest dumbo ..
Arnab thinks what he thinks is what people think..
He wants people to think what he thinks, Other factors being constant.
***** It's really preposterous when the media tries to represent the voice of people by projecting a particular stand(which is their's and not essentially popular) on an issue to be the stand of the entire country. Arnab is no different.
Arnab you need 2 months break like Rahul.
Ramya Kamath LOL !!!!!
@MrPramodify : Are you still there? Why have you blocked my comments? Grow up brother. Don't be a coward.
She did hell of a good job in the whole interview process.
Despite all the needless 'controversies' created by the media, Smriti Irani is only going stronger. You just can NOT deny it. Brave & intelligent.
And yeah, 'leftists' & 'centrists' & 'secularists' can now bark below!
'And people are only going to say one thing'.
'What?'
Now that's confidence from the Minister.
Arnab G shud first tell wat is bloody wrong with RSS before discussing as if they are some culprits ...
This is Match fix. This Interview is similar to that of Rajdeep with Aravind Kejriwal.
She is so calm and composed.
she is going to be the next SUSHMA SWARAJ.. for sure...
Smriti Irani - What an awe-inspiring lady. Her conviction and tenacity in argument is commendable. For once, Arnab was taken to task. She indeed epitomizes the Modern day, contemporary woman. Fantastic.
This interview is more like the one with Rahul Gandhi except there was role reversal this time with Arnab playing the role of RaGa lol !!
Smriti Irani will possibly emerge as the best HRD Minister in times to come..Such "Monologue" shows cannot dampen her spirits ! And I am still to discover what good such shows have done to citizens..Except inflating their own bank balances.Proud of u Mam !
research of ARNAB is impressive.really forthright way of asking questions.
Why should Smriti answer for a person not in her ministry (Batra)?
way to go Smriti!! respect for how u stood yr grounds and exposed all of Arnab's agenda
Well irrespective of the fray of questions, the one thing that I cannot stop appreciating about both of them is their body language and the art of keeping their point with a straight face and cool tempers. Their wittiness should serve this interview as a benchmark class not only for wannabe journalists and politicians , but for anyone who wants to reap the benefits of their experience of being "in the field " for years on serving and taking attacks and counterattacks.
Kudos to Smriti Irani . Arnab has lost it. There are no specifics no policy discussion just a blame game of questions. Times now need to up their game to ask more intelligent question on policies rather than trying to make interviewees speak what Arnab wants to hear. People of India cannot be fooled with opinions by petty interviewers. This is an interview not a court of law where Arnab is passing his judgement.
big fan of her.. what a way of talking... she is the only female politician.. who is intelligent and deserves to be cabinet minister
This interview is more of a single point attempt at RSS bashing attempt and persistent argumentative approach rather than trying to get know what the Minister has in her mind as the roadmap for education. Well done Ms. Smriti Irani
Well done Smritiji....
Smriti you were brilliant.
Arnob ... you had nothing to pin her down. You are losing your mojo man! Seriously... what happened to you? Your debates are more and more meaningless, fact-less and howling & shouting & the moment someone tries to clarify a point to you, you cut him! There was a time i won't miss your debate and now "frankly speaking" i don't care!
Arnab thought Smrithi Irani is as easy as Pappu Gandhi! He just got told that she's a junior Modi with full of facts and clear thoughts.
I feel that smriti irani was so direct and no one can accuse Arnab to be biased
She is indeed a lady who should become the PM of India some day .. She gives Arnab as tough time as he gives the other people on his programmes :D:D:D
Brother, are you cognizant of the implied meaning of your comment? You made an attempt to completely negate the democracy and the basic structure of our constitution.
It is we ,the common people who suffer the most, if the persons come to power only to take revenge as you stated. Please don't make loose statements which will degrade your value.
Smriti- 100
Arnab - 0
She is a badass smart politician.. U rock Mrs.Smriti
I feel they admire each other immensely but cannot express the earthy love they have in any other way than dodging.
Arnab interviews Digvijay Singh and everyone calls him a BJP spokesman.
Arnab interviews Smriti Irani, and people think he needs to go back to NDTV.
Just let him do his job, he's supposed to ask tough questions.
#ArnabGoswami out of his elements. Forcing his rehearsed sentences like #RaGa! He lacked specifics. When managed specifics the answers stumped him. After getting stumped he kept forcing his words through.
In short #ArnabGoswami completely owned by Smriti Irani.
Mayank Kumar Stereotypical comment.
Baja Govindam As intended. Can't expect to give #ArnabGoswami any better. I'd love to hear what you have to say about him after listening to this interview.
Mayank Kumar I sense that it has become a habit of economically privileged people to simply make comments on others, without a purpose. Anything without a purpose is a garbage !! No offense brother !
I request you to force/direct your critic attitude towards the right people so that less-privileged section like me, the middle-class, will be benefited too from the policies of the govt. After all, this would help reduce the inequality in the society and, you too would serve the purpose.
If my above words are perplexing you, here is the gist - Just support the media which is representing our interests and ideas through constructive criticism, since neither of us have the privilege to question the elected people.
Your comments make certain assumptions about me which are incorrect. I have no interest in clarifying them since you are choosing to step outside the realm of the actual debate and make it personal.
I'm afraid you don't seem to have understood my remarks. No where in my comments have I passed any remark about this govt or its policies.
My critique on #ArnabGoswami stems from observing him for over 2 years now on Frankly Speaking and Newshour. Two different people may watch the same thing but develop different opinions about it. I appreciate you having a different opinion about him.
And what makes you believe that media is representing your interests mate? They are running a business which is a for profit organization. Now tell me what they will maximize for.
Mayank Kumar My point is simple. Don't discourage the media which is a sole platform and a big opportunity for us to question the people in power. I agree that media is not a non-profit organization. But this statement cannot be made the reason for directing our criticism towards their action, because, our lives are impacted and dictated by the policies taken by the govt.
So, if we discourage the media, which is trying hard to make the People in Power understand that the whole nation is watching them closely, with purposeless comments, we will be the ultimate losers.
Well done Smiriti ji ... you are the perfect example of Women empowerment in BJP. Which CONgress can only dream about and Pappu can only blab.
Smriti Irani, we proud on you #JaiHind #Weldone #KeepOn
Did times Now take an interview of Congressmen on why dawood was left by them??did times now take an interview on why Aamir khan made PK? this channel seems to be backed by congress completely
I am sure after this Arnab will never think about calling a woman on his show.
I love the style of smriti irani spoke ....finally I want to say WaaOo...
respect... Smriti Irani and what immaculate english!
for the first time i saw Arnab being stumped and made to look stupid in his own show.
#presstitues So Mr.Arnab if you teach a kid to blow a candle, you are a Secular person. why should we not teach Indian Traditions in INDIA??? Why did we fight for freedom at all if we still wanna stay slaves to colonial thinking?
Mrs.Irani you are too good in many things and Extremely talented and a Gifted speaker.Multifaceted.🙏🙏🙏
Hats off madam. No body can challenge u.
ow here is the irony..both are my fav..one for bluntness and another for craftiness...superb..
Smriti Irani Kicked ass in that interview! Arnab couldn't have been more out-of-place in his questions! A typical Presstitute! New found respect for Irani today!
The Fact of the matter is that Smriti Irani was a Great actor when she was working as one and she is a great politician, debator, communicator and administrator as I see her now !!! Good interview by Arnab (barring ofcourse the "rhetorics" that HE was actually throwing at Smriti) ! :-)
Once an actor always an actor!
I like the your fluency in speaking and above all your confidence.keep on doing progress for india.
Hehe Arnab got trolled
All Hindutvavadis need to learn speaking skills from Smriti irani:)
Bravo!
Smriti Iraniji is such a confident, distinguished speaker.
this guy gives me a headache! ....he doesn't listens, yahan pe bhi bus blah blah blah! he reads his questions and then doesn't let smriti to speak. shouldn't this be monologue by arnab???
cherry dejavu Sorry Ma'am. I disagree with your opinion. If you want to know the reason, please see my other comments. Thanks !
She is actually behaving like a lawyer.... Though she handled the questions really well, but I am not convinced with her replies.... Her ministry has certainly supported favoritism.... As Arnab said, her answers are rhetoric but lacks conviction....
Subrata Shaw Akash Balaji Birajdar Brothers, I perceive that your education is insufficient and ineffective for you to understand the meaning in the comments made by +Anuradha Ravi.
Please see my other comments if you feel you need clarification. Thanks !
People are watching you too Arnab & they are laughing at u as u r losing in ur battle ground.....
She Is Smart! I Can Tell By The Tone Of Her Voice
This lady is smart and very frank in answering questions. Arnab is behaving like a smart ass by expecting answers to suit his agenda.
Smrithi is just awesome!!!!!
Smriti Irani rocks not only in this interview but in her work too. Superb HRD minister!!!!!
watch it for the way she tackles Arnab....One of the best political interviews.....well done Smriti.
Arnab looks clueless in front of her .. Kudos Irani
Awesome !!!
Wonderful lady!admirable
Not an RSS supporter but Smriti rocked
Speaks abt her mettle as a minister... She handles it too well
Arnab..All the comments positive or nagative ..we all enjoy your bravery show.. so we watch show and give you comment bad or good.... Your the braves India citizen.. Keep it on.. Great fans of yours
