‘Modi Staggeringly Incompetent In Most Things not Just Economy, Disastrous for India If he Wins ‘24’

- One of India’s well-known essayists as well as an economist and political affairs commentator, whose weekly blogs are widely viewed, has said “Narendra Modi is staggeringly incompetent not just in economics but most things”. Dr. Parakala Prabhakar was speaking in an interview on his forthcoming collection of essays called ‘The Crooked Timber of New India: Essays on a Republic in Crisis’, which will be formally launched in Bangalore on Sunday the 14th. This comment was made when Dr. Parakala was questioned about the following sentence from his book: “The nation’s economic woes stem from the Modi regime’s staggering incompetence. It has been unable to put together a well-thought out, cohesive economic philosophy.” In a series of questions about who he had in mind when he wrote “the Modi regime’s staggering incompetence”, Dr. Parakala said “Narendra Modi is staggeringly incompetent not just in economics but most things”. Asked specifically about the two Finance Ministers who have served under Narendra Modi, Arun Jaitley and Nirmala Sitharaman, Dr. Parakala said that he did not want to comment on individuals.

How soft, fearless dr prabhakar . No murmmering, no uttering, no shoutings, no unparliamentary words, only subject discussion.
I want Karan Thapar to interview Modi one more time, please 😢
But keep lots of water. And dosti bani rehni chahiye.
it will be again...."dosti bane rahe"
no one cares for this Thapar guy, he is a liar and an islamic propagandist
He'll need numerous bathroom breaks after gulping all that water 🌊😏
You do? But does the interviewee?
I have not heard of such direct accountability for Modi and BJP!! So relieved to hear such an honest analysis!!👏👏
You pbaba you need a book to survive.
accountability is not for Modi or BJP but the PM and ruling party. It means accountability is applicable for all the 14 prime ministers
A bold and insightful interview. Appreciate Dr. Parakala for his views. A large number of people share the same views across the country.
I thank the Wire and Mr. Thapar for this interview which introduced me to such an amazing personality like Dr. Parakala. As a political economist his observations and insights are astute and eye opening. I am truly impressed by what was read out from his recent book. What a pity that India has such amazing talented and knowledgeable people who could make so much difference to the society but are pushed to the background.
When the mob is intoxicated with continuous dose of communal venom and organized propaganda machinery shouting lies , that is the result every where
a person who was setting the agenda for the nation through Main Stream Media is now pushed down to anchoring a You Tube show. That's the power of the Right. No measured tones nor cultivated gestures will make them respectable . wasted and ignored by the billion.
Do you his wife is finance minister of India
@@vraj5471 Also that they are brahmins, I am not one but it is said in our part of India, 2 brahmins mean 3 opinions.
I salute the courage of Dr.Prabhakar !
My heart most thanks to Dr Prabhakar ,a renowned economist for manifesting colossal courage against the policies of modi govt .Prabably by doing so he might have invited a tug of war in his domestic life. We wish a peace of mind of this esteemed couple would remain intact. All the best Dr Prabhkar.
Zir,
It seems, if I am not wrong, they divorced long back
We are at crossroads.Dr. parakala prabhakar, that you for your effort. Karan how do we ratify to 140 crores of innocent Indians ???????
Excellent talk. Every citizen of India should be like Mr Parakala and Mr Thapers who have kind of intellectuality of such a top level.
Very brave to articulate what a few Hindu minority are fearing. Congratulate you both, for this bold analysis.Read the book, and the interview helped in understanding your thought process.Most educated people think contrary, and agree with the regime.Hope it makes them think deeply , where we are headed . Thankyou.
India is already witnessing the kind of failure in the law and order situation of the country. Thank you for the wonderful discussion. 👍
True, the first time I saw a worst law breaking havoc, immediately after I started reading news paper seriously, I was 21 then...Witnessed two sardar dead bodies on the road in Sabzi mandi, Delhi out of the 3000 lyncing and murder by congress party. It keeps happening all through these five decades, latest being Sar Tanse Juda and Manipuri style violences
Have you noticed one thing there is no bomb blast on the streets after 2014. Balls are safe 🇮🇳✳️
Kudos to you Mr.Parakala Prabhakar.... speaking truth from your position is definitely shows you have what it takes to keep the spine straight...
Being a husband of finance minister great to hear what exact situation in India is now a big salute
Midi divides everyone including husband and wife.
Listen to him carefully 👍

What a pleasure to hear you both. Dr Parakala is my choice of next FM of India. Such a poised and super intelligent person. I have attended the book release.
He was thrown out by his wife and daughter and not invited by his own daughter's marriage. He kept quiet and now opened his mouth after a row with hix wife. He is from thukde thukde gang paid artiste by Congee.
You are absolutely mistaken Bro.
if that happened better india surrender to pakistan
I slaute Million times to Mr parakala for his courage and boldness to publish this book and his brave Interview with Karan . God Bless You Sir, our country needs people like you 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Which god ? Allah stopped working on India since 2014😂😂
Finally, Thappar prayed for the SAFETY of the bold and gentle Prabhakar.
Let us also pray and hope...
And also unite to dethrone the regime.

I applaud him for speaking his mind with courage. Hat's off to him and to Mr Thapar for this interview.
Thats why When whole Opposition & Media was lobbying for Pfizer & free money distribution during Covid, PM stands for our own Vaccine development & Did Free Grain distribution so that the economy could be saved from inflation which the west faced after distributing money.
Both of these men are Clown & Thapar is the biggest of them . He is just a disgruntled husband who cannot see the success of his wife.
It is undoubtedly surprising that he is the husband of our current finance minister, Nirmala Sitaraman, and commendably speaking out the unfiltered truth.
Oh! That's quite surprising! I googled it, and it's true!
I do not know if he gets any feedback from his wife regarding incompetence of the entire regime headed by Sahib. We are caught in the whirlpool of confusion when Sahib wins the election. What are the opposite parties doing to drive out phoney Hinduism masquerading as Hindutva . The fault lies in checkmating false propaganda doled out with the help of the new rich class with the only aim to expand their Empire come what may.
Are u all sure about this

I’m not too sure but I did read a review when someone wrote that they are divorced. Not too sure but yes, It was mentioned.

Good to see, there are still people who fearlessly do journalism unlike the drama happens in the news rooms these days. Keep going Karan!

Dr. Parakala Prabhakar views are highly appreciable.
There's 200% TRUTH in Dr Parakala Prabhakar's claim🙏 He's a PROUD SON of India and its leading ECONOMIST. Our Country is divided btwn brilliant and the stonage men.0
A discourse of the highest order with the impartial views from Parakala sir is really super. A grave warning to the people of India on the danger ahead!
My respect for Dr Parakala Prabhakar has gone up many folds today; I used to watch his weekly program on his own RUclips channel every Wednesday when he suddenly decided to go off air; I really missed him until I came across this interview.
I didn't have a great liking for Modi even before 2002 but the Gujarat riots and how he handled them took me light years away from him. He is the gift of LK Advani to us, who must be tossing on his bed but has no courage to speak out, however, it is we Indian citizens who have given him the legitimacy!
I am absolutely with you. Dr Prabhakar Parkala is incisive, collates data systematically and presents it as it is - without any over emphasis!
To politically disagree with his own better half and call a spade a spade requires some courage of conviction!
Hats off to Dr Prabhakar Parkala 👏👏

But the daughter is not so great.
So good to have Mr. Prabhakar's views back in the country's discourse, this time in the form of a book! Oh yes, he must have had difficulty getting a publisher and I'm glad he eventually managed to get his book to see the light of day!
I look forward to reading the book and also to having Mr. Prabhakar resume his weekly blog.
Thank you Karan for this brave interview!
Thank God we have such bold and sincere Indians who wish to bring out the truth, irrespective of consequence. Full support to you.

Excellent interview. I'm very happy that the current regime faced the most crippling and most embarrassing defeat in Karnataka.
@@tempwash So, why didn't BJP give people something in return for their vote? Aren't the lobbyists and "donors" of BJP and their cronies getting what they want in exchange for their "bribe"? Do you have a list of "ALL development activities" that the government is "pondering" to stop? pondering is not the same as stopping. The current Karnataka government is using the taxes paid by the people and businesses of Karnataka to pay for these promises. What did you personally lose because BJP lost their governing power in Karnataka?
@@tempwash You did not answer any of the questions I asked. You also did not mention exactly what kind of "development" activity has been "stopped". In the name of digitization Modi government has stopped all manual work that was efficient and helped people. Do you know the LONG queues people have to wait in for EVERYTHING in Karnataka? Every time we need to get something done, the people behind the counters tell us that "server is down" or "internet is down". Why isn't BJP government hiring more people to prevent these long queues? Jobs with high paying salaries will result in prosperity for the people. Why isn't BJP government paying the pensions of elderly people? Why are people being forced to pay fees to use ATM cards? Why are people being prevented from using their own money from their own bank accounts? Everything the BJP government has inconvenienced people in more ways than one. Why are people being forced to pay tolls for roads that are supposed to be the state's infrastructure that is funded by tax payers? Why is there so much trash all over the streets? Why can't BJP government hire people with high salaries to do the work that needs to be done? All this supreme court nonsense is a distraction from the extreme corruption that Modi government has created. You just seem to be jealous that Karnataka people got some money. You also seem to be okay with Modi and his cronies looting the government of all its funds in the form of subsidies to private corporations. Instead of solving real issues and preventing new problems, Modi government has started a new bullshit trend of letting courts decide what to do. If SC should decide everything what are the politicians doing? Why are politicians getting payed? Don't they call themselves "leaders". They need to do their jobs.
Mr PARAKALA is a genius he is a fearlessly bold personality and an authentic author an authority of sorts !! Pleasure going through the interview !! Pair him up with Shashi Tharoor some day !!
Absolutely candid. He has the balls of steel to call a spade a spade 👍
He has balls of steel..so, it does not do it's normal function... 😀😀
Lmao, what is the credibility of this guy given he is Tai's husband? Can you imagine going home to someone you are so diametrically opposed to? Would you be okay living under the same roof & sharing the same bed with the person who you think is aligned to the people destroying the very fabric of your society & country? Gormint aunty was a visionary like nobody else.
Also, please note, the opposition he is blaming for giving credibility to BJP by aligning with them in 90s/2000s, while this hypocrite himself was a spokesperson of Andhra unit of BJP during the Vajpayee era. So if he knew their real intentions all along, why did he align with them? Did not expect this softball interview from Karan Thapar, disappointed.

Congrats Mr Thaparji for a very bold interview Third term for Modiji spells a disaster for our country's democratic values which every Indian so deeply cherishes. But I do see a silver lining in our countrymen, who will definitely rise against such a divisive narrative of the government of the day. I believe in people's intelligence to rise and vote against such a narrative.

Being the husband of our finance minister Ms Nirmala Sitharaman, Mr Prabhakar’s honest, truthful, and fearless statement is a gem.
This book should be published in other languages....eg Hindi....Bengali....Gujarati...Marathi....Tamil ...Telugu...

@@jacobdaniel100 You Keralite's already know the BJP very well by kicking them out of the 2 Assembly seats they had in the last Assembly election which the Communist's won for the second consecutive time.Therefore, Hindi must be considered for translation over any other Dravidian and the Bengali language.

could not agree more,. Whenever you listen to him you will not hear a word on what he has done in last 9 years as a PM but he is always telling us what INC has not done,.
This is way Fascist work study the rise and fall of Third Reich Hitler had Goebbels his propaganda minister BJP is trying to convince public at large that Congress is the bad element and they alone are the saviour of India Why Pulwama episode is suppressed ? If you take Malik seriously then burning of the coach in Godhra was neither accident nor by muslim tea seller but by their own to create a scene . Like Hitler burnt the constitution and arrested the President for it and declared emergency. you make your own conclusions
Do say that .He did promotion of the movie portraying our state as a terrorist state -'The Kerala Story '.
It's because he has done NOTHING at all, except build temples, rename stadiums and towns, inaugurating every single new train, toppling state governments through money power, and pathologically lying through his teeth every single day. Modi is a performer, an actor, not a statesman. Unfortuanately, Indians are easily swayed by actors because they lack the intellectual rigorousness that rationality requires.
Appeal to all genuine voters to vote what nation thinks is important service to the mother land

Hats up Mr. Prabhakarji for your courage and boldness in ripping modi to unleash his failures and addicting public by un constitutional sentiments was his winn over. And Iam really proud of you being a citizen of your state.
What a pleasant surprise to have Mr Parakala. He is one of the most effective speakers.
Dear sir Karan this interview is very good and the book of Parakala is eye opener to many in this country. Prakala and you are very bold to express what you are feeling right.
Kudos to Parakala , Author of " The crooked Timber of New India "is very pleasant and straight forward with genuine sharpness in his talks. Must read his shared thoughts .
The idea of India by the founding fathers was based on the situation in 1947. Today the situation and the world as a whole is different. There is nothing wrong with redefining the idea of India. Protecting a large majority is important, that does not necessarily mean the country will stop being secular. At the same time minorities who like the idea of being secular need to start being secular themselves.
Parakala Prabhakar is absolutely right in his assessment of the present regime. People should become wiser before casting their vote. Enough of Modi and BJP
Do you have control over your vote?
When you press the button on the EVM in favour of the wisest candidate how sure are you that vote of yours has gone to your candidate and not someone else. If you are looking for the right answer then dont blame the other voters. There is a software inside the IC , EPROm chips that is keyed in by the EC or their contractors which makes fool out of us. So as long as EVM are used only BJP and so confidently they say Congress mukth Bharath, and will make constitutional changes after LS polls of 2024.
Absolutely Sharad

Why do opposition parties even bother participating in elections? DMK won, so did TMC, AAP, Congress recently in Himachal. All exit polls predicted those outcomes accurately. How is it possible for exit polls to closely mirror outcomes if EVMs manipulated? Congress used to win most elections before EVMs introduced due to booth capturing.

This guy must be sleeping outside his house due to the continuous nagging from his wife.
Very good interview. Every word uttered in the interview is very true. The people of India must definitely be alert about the camouflaged Hindutva policies of the Modi Government. I was a regular viewer of The Devil's Advocate. Can never forget your interview with Mr. Modi & Miss Jayalalitha.
He is very honest. He is opening the eyes of hindutva people.
Thanks him very much.
I just surpriced Dr. Prabhakar's view because our Finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman is his wife. But
I am very happy with the interview and happy for Dr. Prabhakar's point of view on current india.
Hats off to Mr. Prabhakar what a bold and intelligent speech..we need such people who think for the common people.

Why such idiots are invited in your show,Mr Thappar?
It will be a real tragedy for India if Mr. Modi gets the third term.Should this happen it will take very long time for India to recover.
❤ What Sri Parakala Prabhakar said in this interview is 100% true and correct.
Religion and caste should be out of political arena.
Economic development, and equitable distribution of wealth should be sole criteria, for electing the leaders.
Cash payments, subsidies, incentives and reservations on considerations of caste and religion should be removed.
Poverty and merit should be the factors, for taking any decision on any matter.
- Gandhi Mandadi
Can't help agreeing 100% to Mr. Prabhakar's statement "The nation’s economic woes stem from the Modi regime’s staggering incompetence. It has been unable to put together a well-thought out, cohesive economic philosophy." Being the husband of the current Finance Minister of India, I think he knows what he is talking about and intelligent Indians need to REALLY LISTEN & try to rectify the ERROR of Judgement by not voting them back to power in 2024
NaMo has betrayed my belief more than my 2 EXs. Such a great opportunity he had by getting voted with huge majority. What a shame.
Big Point! Sad but true.

@@satyakammisra You assume that I voted for NaMo. Whereas your comments make it clear how you typically talk to fellow citizens. If you have angst against NaMo or anybody else, why direct it towards someone you have never met and are only reading comments on YT.
Grand salute to Dr. Prbhakar for telling the naked truth about Modi. Kran, your critical questions are always above anybody's imagination. Genius and great. True and bold journalism.
With Manmohan Singh as economic adviser since 1974 and RBI governor and Finance Ministrr back to back directing India's economy took us to bankruptcy in 1991.
So much for competence😂
Parakala Prabhakar gets huge respect from me for his view, I wish there were more like him in India and the world.
Has nirmala sitharaman divorced her husband as the husband actually had to write a book to convey the message to his wife 😂😂😂😂
Sins of the Parents are borne by the their children, I believe they are looking their daughter, so husband and wife are just trying to balance out their sins.
Startling that you have to get personal . His wife is not Modi's national compass - she maybe a bhakt but her husband does not have to be. ! Check with the dumb Akshay Kumar and his smart and grounded wife Twinkle ! This kind of occurrence is common and not uncommon in many families in the cowbelt specially !
@@bullseye7541 I hope you are not a devil since you are calling others Bhakts🤣🤣
Why is this anyone’s business?
@@cosmicray3395 It is everybody’s business when one comes to public life. It is all up for debate and inspection.
Without mincing the words very honest criticism. Remarkable vocabulary of you both. Many thanks
Thanks both of you gentleman's for educated us how modi regime is a threat to democracy . I'm not voting bjp again
Not alone. Please tell as many people as possible not to vote BJP to power again.
Thank God for The Interview and Dr. Parakala Prabhakar. 🙌
Dr. Prabhakar, was right on all points.
As an Indian, I, am surprised that the people of India, have taken this all lying down, so far. It is pretty obvious, that the present government is intent on making away with a secular country, where every one lives in peace and harmony, to a theocratic state, where other than Hindus and other religions do not exist. This, one has to agree, is a poor state of affairs and our founding fathers were unable to foresee!!
Thank you both Dr. Prabhakar and Mr Thapar, for having confirmed what I had suspected.
It has yielded tangible results that an ordinary but a citizen no less like me can see and test. My town in southwest himachal pradesh for majority of its history had 1 subpar IGNOU for post secondary education. Now we have a hydroengineering univery, an AIIMS and a highway that is transforming the town like never before.
The ethos of this nation is secular, as are majority of the people, BJP can only fan ideas that would actually gain any traction amongst the masses. Their fringe can continue portraying the other sects ( india doesnt have a minority except for jews and parsis) , but those lot would never be able to enact policies that can undermine the right of those communities.
They all criticize Modi on such superficial levels nobody gives a flying fuck .
@@WastingTime1878 it screwed up India big time. Your selective anecdote can be countered by a million examples of stupidity by this government. So come out of your delusions.
@@WastingTime1878 No need to get angry. They are doing what they are supposed to do. Leaders face criticism & that doesn't make them superior or inferior. Criticism is necessary but Criticizing everything without looking at both sides of the matter is Propaganda. Just search who is Karan Thapar & How is he connected to the Gandhi-Congress dynasty ??? Stay Calm.😀
As long as Hindus are in majority, this country will remain secular.
@@WastingTime1878 This is exactly what Mr. Prabhakar says that BJP appeals to the dark side of us. You prove that there are takers for such negative and destructive politics in the country. And your concept of minority population is laughable,just check data.
Dr Parakala may be the best thing that's happened to us in understanding the malady that inflicts us, in a proper perspective. Thank you Sir.
Incompetency can make u the pm of india , i wanna be incompetent then
@@dexterhams5870it is the rehtoric and ability to convince people though he might be lying, added by agenda of hatred towards others, of our present present prime minister which gave him two terms. Whether he can fool people again, is to be seen
Karan is correct in arriving at the conclusion that a majority of the hindu population has accepted Modi as their leader. He is able to convince them that they are safe as long as he is in power.
Hinduism is the soul and the force behind the United India. The constitution to be changed to protect the Hindu cultural heritage.
Full support to PM Modi from Kerala 👍
Huge respect for the insight that opposition parties in their short term attitude got taken in by the posturing of the BJP . Applaud his courage
Wow! What an interview. Great minds, bold questions and courageous answer. Kudos to both. This is what India is.
I think you meant 'was' or 'to be'!
@@maranmicro India should have been 😮
His wife is FM of the country right now. So needless to say the country is fine. Since Democracy is not in danger and free speech still exists.
His wife Smt. Sitharaman, the FM of Modi has advised PM in his second term to take all these blunders.
Why does he say he doesn’t want to comment about individuals and in the same breath he personally commented about PM Modi
Already ordered the book even before it is launched next month! Thanks, Karan for having the courage to do this interview, and thumbs up to Dr Parakala for not just writing but saying it out again in public.
You just wasted your money😂
Taper doesn't appreciate how India is getting transformed under the leadership of Modi single agenda out to put him down
MODI GOVT SHOULD EXEMPT SR. CITIZENS HAVING INCOME OF RS 15 LACS. I. TAX SHOULD BE APPLICABLE BEYOND RS15 LACS & ABOVE. APART OF ABOVE, MODI GOVT SHOULD RESTORE RAILWAY FARE DISCOUNT OF 50 PER CENT TO EVERY PERSON WHO ARE ABOVE 60 YEARS. THE GAS SUBSIDY MUST BE RESTORED TO EARLIER LEVEL. ANY FRAUDULENT MOVE OF BJP WILL ENSURE DEFEAT OF PARTY IN FUTURE ELECTIONS. THIS FACT SHOULD NOT BE OVERLOOKED & BYPASSED BY MODI GOVT. OTHERWISE SR. CITIZENS WILL ENSURE DEFEAT OF BJP IN FUTURE ELECTIONS.
Interesting facts about Mr. Parakala is he was the spokesperson of BJP in Atal-Advani Era and Husband of current FM Nirmala Sitharaman
Yes. Now we all know why the FM retains her maiden name.
Oh is it !!!?? 🤦
So you mean to say that Nirmala has kept her maiden name. Oh! That is the understanding.
My sister use their maiden names, my wife uses her maiden name my 1 sis in law uses her maiden name.
He is blaming Modi. How about sharing the blame with his wife to some extent ? He does not want to take names when Karan asked him about Finance Ministers' responsibility.
Excellent Interview and Hats off to Mr Parakala..Salute to you...
Thank god for journalists like Karan Thapar Ji and Faye Dsouza Ji in Indian media which is Arnab..ised with its Godi..rised quotient.1 year from now History will celebrate guys like you for your courage.Jai Hind 🇮🇳
I think this book of Mr. Parakala Prabhakar is a eye opener for the people who are sitting their eyes and ears closed. Hats off to the author for presenting true state of affairs in our country and the reasons behind it. Jai Bharath.
So since you are against BJP, those in support of BJP have their eyes and earls closed closed . Don't forget bjp has majority support . It is the stupid who are always in minority taking side of wrong people .
Hallelujah
@@Lokesh_C-dl3gt '' He is from Andhra Pradesh. I know more about this guy.'' 52.88 million people live in Andhra, you know everyone of them personally? What sort of ridiculous argument is this, that because you are from State X, that gives you a special insight into intellectuals from State X?
Which one of Dr. Prabhakar's actual facts do you dissent from and why?
Kudos!! Dr Parakala is trying to influence the peoples of India for the current scenario in the era of the government which is hiding facts and figures from peoples. Surprisingly he could not influence his better half finance minister.
Could be balancing act like the Scindias.
One family member with RSS. The other one opposing the RSS
In fact, this is a testimony to Dr. Parakala's ideal position of not influencing his other half with his opinion and belief. This is the hallmark of someone who truly believes in freedom of action and thought. In a patriarchal society it is very difficult for a spouse to have a will of her own - this only proves that Dr. Parakala seems to be an ideal husband.
@@shabbirhaidermota2633 or maybe he has no power to convince😂
He is bearing around the bush... As always. Not a clear cut thought? At all....
@dt Anyone who values another's freedom of thought will never impose their will on anyone. This is a benchmark of civilized thinking. Imposition of one's old fashioned customs are the hallmark of a regressive Society.
Sir with all.due respect.India will respond

Thank you for the truth,the idea of India will always be Satyameva Jayate.
Dr. Parakala is so unabashedly honest and puts forward his logic in such clear words, it is refreshingly enlightening. Interviewed by Karan is the icing on the cake.
