Modi is Reckless and Impetuous & Unconcerned About Consequences-Aakar Patel
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 сен 2024
- One of India’s most highly regarded columnists and a former Executive Director of Amnesty International India, has said Narendra Modi is impetuous and reckless and often unconcerned about the consequences of the decisions he takes. In an interview to discuss his recent book ‘Price of the Modi Years’, Aakar Patel cited the background details behind the decision to demonetize in 2016 and to declare a nationwide lockdown at four hour’s notice in 2020 to substantiate his point. In both cases, he argued, the decisions had been taken without consulting his Cabinet colleagues, without seeking advice and without attempting to find out what would be the consequences for the hundreds of millions affected. In the case of the lockdown, Aakar Patel referred to over 200 RTI applications filed by the BBC which substantiate the point he made about the lockdown.

“Shoot first and aim later” is a good expression
That is foolish act.
Journalistic courage reaches new heights......with this and hats off to both of them 👏 👏
Malicious journalism.
Retented journalist
Modi is a prisoner of his sad past and exposure
And a burden on the once developing country he is worst than a street goonda.
Absolutely.
Modi build 9.3 Cr toilet in just 5 yrs in India. Congress is systematic party couldn't do it for 70 yrs 😆😆
This is systematic🤪🤪
You mean a sadist. Looks like since we have never seen him happy and laughing in a good mood. Always pensive.
@@vijaykumarjain4422 his voter are happy and laughing when we see you antional crying 😆
So that's the logic
The people who throng the public gatherings where the PM speaks, are not exactly the people who would be listening to either Karan Thapar or Akar Patel. And that is where the votes come from.
@Indian 💯💯💯
Facts don’t care for your feelings. Aakar Patel hits the nail on the head!
@Indian All election wins by corruption and deliberate lies, EVM tampering, election commission of India infiltrated with RSS thugs. That's the reason. Fair and square by justified elections BJP RSS Modi Amit shah ROGI Adityanath cannot win.
he has hit nail on his own head. his NGO has been banned that why he s is crying

@@amathpatl8041 Only criminals and terrorist organisations like BJP RSS must be banned and members sent to jail for removing the Indian constitution and imposing undeclared emergency in India since 2015. This is the fact. Period
@Indian They already have right to property, remarriage and property inheritance way before even Europeans and rest of the world implemented that. What's your point here??? I guess you are simply shooting in the dark here. Didn't Mohan Bhagwat and Amit Malviya train you properly enough????
Modi is stubborn and egoistic. He doesn’t want anybody from his cabinet to take any leads or make public appearance.
I think you forgot yogi 😅
the man who came into power 7.5 years ago for resolving all of INDIA's problems for once and for all has himself became the biggest problem of INDIA 🇮🇳
No words after yours. Best Comment of the 7.5 years indeed. 🙏🙏🙏
A fantastic sum up
@@Robbie_S 🙏🙏
Wahh kya bat he. That is the best line to describe this MANIAC
He, Modi, never meant to solve any of India's problems, but only to serve sanghi agenda. Whether that would solve any problems or otherwise.
The government used the attack on pakistan to win a superb win in 2019. He knows to use people emotions. Sad thing is we will blindly follow him into the worse state. The more the people are manipulated by religion, the less religious they are gonna become.
If a country pm can risk an entire country to war, for winning elections can show how wise he is in his head. It's not abt religion but relgion can be used to further his agenda.
Hundred years from now, people will ask how any leader could get away with such reckless behaviour. And people will conclude our generation must have been like sheep - brainless and easily driven.
Absolute power currupts absolutely and it begets pride
Absolutely on the dot, spot on..
Psychopathy
Hundred years from now people will think how a whole religion could get away with keeping 4 wives or producing so many kids when still poor, and how they could strap bombs on themselves and blow them in public places? They'll wonder about a religion developed by psychopath.
Why go that far....it will happen within 2-3 deacdes...just watch.
Furthering social divisions is not a recipe for economic development. It may temporarily satisfy the taste buds, but indigestion will inevitably follow, and can lead to terminal illness.
I have seen people whose factories have closed down, laid off people, and yet blindly following divisive politics, from our leaders. Compassion and logical thinking, can be ingrained only by education, and not bigotry.
Very well summed up, Sir.

Hope that happens soon Sir?
Very good interview of Mr. Thapar with Mr. Patel - he has spoken his heart out about the Megalomaniac governance of ND Modi, this is true journalism, God Bless you both
Both have good job in enlightening us the shortcomings of Mr. Modi and his administration, Surely it is alarming.
"If the vigilante who accosts the person accused of carrying beef is acting 'good faith', it is not crime." I think this is it. We lost it.
Very good discussion which indicates at diminished future of the country in general and worsening prospects for common people in particular. Very disappointing and unfortunately looks like 'MODI as a unavoidable CURSE' .
Well impartial....evaluation.....it shows true sides of A monster dictator.....
totally biased . cry baby , his NGO is banned
May be Mr. Modi is suffering from fear psychosis.
ABC of such a leader
A= Arrogance
B= Bureaucrat
C= Corporate
After former PM Manmohan Singh's tenure was over he was asked, how would he view his time?
He replied back that I wish history would be kind to me.
I think no one would ask such a question to PM Modi.
Dr. Manmohan singh was right. At that time, he was under so much scrutiny by LW and RW forces alike. It speaks of his intellect and optimism when he responded with this answer. If someone asks modi, he will self declare that he is the best PM country ever got. And that his name will be written in golden words. Although he still enjoys so much RW popularity but he will go down history as the most pompous and fascist leader that india ever got. He will serve as an example of how an indian leader shouldnt be lest a PM. Those supported him will be remembered as how germans would be recalling as nazis. Even God wont forgive him about how he divided our country!

Worst PM since independence. His huge popularity makes things even worse. Sad😭
If you look into the policy measures they took, then he is far better than PM MMS(Note im not talking about FM MMS), Lucky that UPA got the impact of policies taken by his previous reforms.(Note im only taking about economic policies not politics)

This interview made me feel shiver down my spine.I always opposed modi from the beginning but after his book and knowing in a perspective which I have not thought before, made me even more worried. The most important thing that thapper said at the end " take care and stay safe " meant a different meaning and not related to the existing pandemic. That's more alarming!
Very heavy price our country is paying b'coz of Modi.👍💐👍🙏
Modi will not rest until everything is destroyed
We want him to do it as early as possible. So that we can get rid of him and destroy his ideology at once. So that we can reconstruct the nation afresh on the basis of The Constitution.
Aakar Patel I salute you for having the gumption to show the world the true face of Modi and BJP, this has been a revitting interview and it's right to believe thatthe book is going to be even more interesting. What really blew me away was that when you said that the BJP will continue with their criminal minded persecution of the minorities and that they will yet keep on winning elections for years to come with no one to challenge them at the national level,that has been the most naked confession yet by any person who follows the politics of India .You are also the first person who said even if the BJP goes out of power it will take ages for the country to return to the pre 2014 mindset as the psychological brainwash of the people and andhbakhts has already been done to an unimaginable degree ,which is a point to ponder
Modi did crime against humanity, should be hand with Amit shah
Not only against minorities but badmash juttha party is against common Indian, were all these farmers muslims? Were all those who were walking towards their own homes during lockdown, were all those muslims, modi is in power for the betterment of 2 gujaratis and nobody else, even the elected badmash juttha party's MPs, MLAs, chaddi gang etc are foolish, they are being used for the interest of these gujaratis, god knows when will these stupid understand?
Aaegaa to Modi hi 👋
They are paroniod.the only thing they do is oppose modi.
It is also the fault of the press that has FAILED to do a constant ongoing critique of Modi and his government and keep the people informed
But then, there is ED, IT dept, CBI, ad denial, other threats, etc. to control the press.
Modi got absolved of all charges of Godhra riots by all courts during Congress rule... Ed, cbi, in etc were all under congress, so media too knows there is nothing against him...
There are some Media Houses which are ideologically & emotionally aligned with Modi's vision, but some of the Media Houses are falling in line to save themselves from CBI, ED & IT and get handsome advertisement revenue.
Net-Net, Modi has failed to Manage the Country, but has successfully managed to Control Media and most of the Constitutional Authorities. Most importantly he has managed keep his core supporters energised and motivated.
Press was always like this, even under Congress. Public wanted entertainment not news !...its just that Modi amplified this this shortcoming and used it for his advantage.
Reading the left media like thewire and ndtv, i dont think criticism is in short supply. Listening to farmer protests, i dont think anyone is remotely afraid of thi govenment.
One of the best books I''ve read in a long time. Soundly researched, lucidly presented.
Anyone who cares about India's future should read it.
😂😂😂 self proclaimed intellectual
@ping pong it's covered under Muslim personal law.
@ping pong sanghi, inheritance in Islam is equal for a daughter as for a son.
Your entire argument is flawed.
@ping pong how about for hindu women?
@ping pong thank you for helping educate me. Islam always had female inheritance rights under sharia. Only in 2005 was the law in regard to hindu wen codified.
Like said, inheritance in Islam is codified Muslim personal law. How does Azkar Patel come into it? His book is critique of the modi profligacy.
Do you hv the guts to praise MNREGA?
What Mr. Patel is trying to say is:
" You have given a Gun in the hands of a KID (Memna), so you should be well aware of the Results".
I think his Analysis were perfect and to the point, he never moved away from his POV.
Absolutely correct.
@ping pong have you really read any of his books... If not then please be out of the conversation. It's just a request.
@ping pong Did Modi ever do anything for Hindus?
Two in tango in criticising Modi. If one is blind still he/she can feel the change but if one pulls a blindfold on his/ her mind and eyes everything is blank.
Both are very miser in giving credit to Modi for using digitalization to ensure effectiveness of Direct benefit schemes for needy and quantum jump in Jandhan, Awas yojana & Toilets / swachcha bharat, LPG etc.

With his charisma and large mandate, he had a lifetime opportunity to change the course of the people to prosperity, peace and brotherhood. Sadly his arrogance and self glorification has taken us towards hatred, intolerance and communalism.

When Mr Aakar Patel says Modi's babbling when he actually lies or misrepresents the facts, it's in actual fact bullshitting. But then he remains popular because the Indian people love tamasha and getting bullied and pushed around. We appreciate strong men even if they're a disaster for the country. What a missed opportunity because Modi has the power and enjoys great popularity but that's a squandered opportunity and that makes us the laughing stock of the world.

Who will talk about the impact of those decisions? Aakar precisely describes how any and all action of Modi has a blanket approval by the public even before the consequences play out. And when consequences do play out negatively , instead of debating what went wrong, Modi and his supporters continue chanting empty rhetoric
Very bold opinion of Mr. Akaar Patel.some organizations in our country have created a situation where nation's attention is diverted, even at the cost of nation's interest.

Solution is bitter and difficult one.
I think if people can understand what exactly is at stake in upcoming state and general elections they will be able to choose wisely.
Whether it will happen or not depend upon collective will of the people of India.

The bottom of that top cohort is literally falling out and they are the most vocal. As for the 90% , they are enjoying the punishment being meted out to the so called Lutyens class by their champion Modi who they consider one of their own.

There's a sonnet by Shelley called Ozymandias, which depicts a trunkless statue of a monarch who calls himself, "King of kings, " lying in the trackless deserts of Egypt. The massive head of the statue is a shattered visage lying about somewhere...
While Aakar Patel, and conclusions drawn are en pointe, there are X Factors available in the study of history. I am hoping that Almighty God is the preeminent X Factor, and should He decide to act ; money, power, vitiated society, deepest poverty, spineless and corrupt leaders - NOTHING will or can stand in His way. The future may not be as bleak or predictable as painted in this interview.
You must reject all thoughts of committing suicide like your idol. Future of India shall be worse than bleak as suggested by Aakaar.
Ozymandias was Ramses 2 who was indeed a great king. Even though Modi has similar personality traits , he is actually a dalal of Adani and Ambani and has no kingly qualities.
Also the poem basically shows that nothinh stands in the test of time . It is true that one day Modi shall vanquish too, but the time is what we dont have and our generation has also lost. So we are looser along with him .
@@hirakchatterjee5240 In India public wealth is 15% of national income. Private wealth is 500+% of national income. Came out in a very recent report on inequality. It is freely available and made by very well qualified economists.
Therefore, it is obvious the government of India is absolutely powerless. All these politicians earn through colleges, healthcare, etc. by creating private businesses. There is no difference between Congress and BJP. They just work for different group of capitalists. But yes the Congress does have commitment to the minorities in some way. They are much softer and systematic. Balanced.
God save INDIA
Ask him Karan how long India will remain secular if Muslims become 30%?
Most of the actions of Modi like notebandi,gst,Corona handling & launching of various welfare schemes even removal of Article 370 couldn't yeild desired results since same were implemented by bureocrates on the direction of King ( Modi) without due diligence & under pressure & fear.
Focuss is only on Modiji and secularism ; India has always been a secular country and that is the reason all religions are flourishing here and only Hindu temples are state controlled and no other ! would appreciate if Aakar patel talks about the successive governments that ruled before BJP and their achievements ; also about the communists, the political familes that is dominating Indian politics, paid media, the so called liberals, pseudo intellectuals and thinkers seated in five star hotels giving unsolicited advice !! The day Hindus become a minority, what may happen to the very democracy in India is a mute question ; what happened to Kashmir pandits, Aakar patel would be well advised to dwell on this point too !
Because of the widening divide between the rich and poor, the very institution of democracy with its capitalism, may give way to a new social order and every other country is turning to protectionism !!

Really eye opening, very honestly articulated and very precisely briefed about upcoming future. This book may be one of the most critical thing for Modi lovers to digest but this is the fact and we cannot escape through it.
…Difficult thing to digest…?
Who s reading…🤔😀
Thanks for ruining a beautiful Sunday morning with this depressing interview Mr. Thapar! But it requires guts to say this today.
No debth n details. This is a fact.He does this recklessly because he has backing of corporate sector.Karan ur Superb n to the point.Keep up ur bravado.
Excellent interview Q & A by Karan Thapar & Mr. Patel. You get a clear idea of where this nation is going on a race to the bottom.
The frightening conclusion is that hundreds of millions of Indians will pay the price for Modi's and the BJP vision of the future of India. Especially the minorities with the thugs or the Brown shirts (Bajrang Dal) terrorising the weak and the helpless minorities of India.
That last words " TAKE CARE AATAL PATEL AND STAY SAFE".....ring a different tone and meaning....May he Attal Patel grow in his wisdom and be a bigger person in observation if HUMANITY issue in INDIA....best of wishes.
It is because he knows that if anything goes wrong the media is there to save him!
Will media also bring back growth for the country or themselves as they do even now?
Modi got the chance to do a lot for Indian People with Majority support in Parliament , but his Meglomaniactic, Narcissistic, Misogynistic, Uneducated & Communal thoughts & actions towards Hindu Nation would remember him as the worst PM of India.
@@priyasankarghoshhajra7508 you are ostrich nothing else to say
@@amathpatl8041 no, it is you that has your head in the sand. Go back to watching goswami, I am sure you will hear the truth you want.
Very depressing indeed
DeMo by NaMo is absolutely devastating decision. Now cash rolling in system (29 lakh crore) is more than what it was before DeMo (17 lakh crore)
FYI, Burden of proof lies on both the parties.
During Modi tenure more things were made compulsory like Aadhar, PAN Card.
Demonetization, Aadhar linking, Mobile or Digital were public was made busy without any personal benefit.
It only increased expense and profit to digital companies.
Worst Politics, Administration, Casteism, Corruption, Bribery, Scam, Crime is rampant.
Rest I agree 70% of Indian are paying heavy price of Modi years.
Thanks a lot sir for your informative vedioes and interviews.
For Modi to continue with his dictatorial character it’s very important that he has absolute majority in congress why he is obsessive about winning elections because he knows he cannot manage in an environment where he has to compromise
when rajya sabha is his, constitution will change.
New India, New Parliament, New Constitution. Jai Svarna Hindu Rashtra
22:22 "babbling" was used instead of "lying". otherwise book will be banned and author in jail under uapa. he didn't go into the aspect of authoritarianism of the leader ??? that is the crux of a free democratic citizenry. Can Criticism be openly discussed anymore? In the past he has said that India is in an insiduous undeclared emergency worse than Indira's.
Bipin Ravat said about 2.5 enemies. China, Pakistan and men within India. I agree after listening to this video and the comments.
what makes u think that difference of opinion to yours is an enemy of india?
Excellent compilation Mr.Karan
People of India are not fools. He will be elected if he did right by them. Let the elections speak for the Democratic processes. If he loses the mouthpiece of amnesty international will be correct. If he fails then the biased media will have its glory day. If he is defeated a person masquerading as king of free media will win. We will see for ourselves.
Bottom line is that Mr. Modi sees himself as a hero and managed to project himself as one also.....he neither has the intellectual and emotional instrument set nor does he have the qualities of a true leader. He is just vacant upstairs....😂 Just like they say never judge the product by the box😂😂. "Narendra modi" is the worst thing happened to india after independence...Yes probably worse than "Indira Gandhi".
Chai wala @
Agree with Mr. Aakar Patel 100%...... Thank you Mr. Karan for you efforts......
A very good interview Mr. Thapar. Mr. Patel's courage and understanding are commendable. I hope and pray India and Indians to have a better sense of their country's direction. The way it looks, it does not look good. Mr. Modi and his hard-line policies have not only eroded secularism in Inda rather ruined India's potential to be a developed country. It makes me wonder, how on earth a democratically elected government can do that kind of harm to the foundation and fabric f a country in just under eight years? And sadly, there is no hope for a change of guards in Delhi in the foreseeable future, since there is a vacuum in India's political scenario. Congress party has lost its shine in the past eight years under Modi's systematic cleansing. Indian people are very hardworking and decent, it was time for them to enjoy the sacrifices of their labour in terms of prosperity, peace and stability. Unfortunately, Mr. Modi's absolute majority has damaged the Indian society and jeopardized its economic potential as a country to a very difficult recovery stage for any government in the foreseeable future. Only miracles can change it, the tricky part is, they don't happen if the leadership lacks wisdom and the policymakers and implementers lack the courage to say and do what is in the best interests of a country and its citizens. I wish the best of luck, prosperity and peace to the Indian people. It's not about India's success it's about that region, its citizens and the global village we all are part of.
Thank you for enlighten ing common man who has a genuine concern for sovereign democratic Republic India.
Reckless, impetuous & uncaring: haven't we known this seven years?
But you can't blame him for that: would you blame a toddler for smearing his face with milk and throwing stuff across the living room crying out when another toddler takes away his toy?
Thus the continual blaming of _someone else_ and the instinctive yearning for attention ...
Great interview but it will go on deaf ears. This content will be gold in future. The Hindi belt will destroy this country and rest of them will suffer for it.
The author made a cold analysis of the last seven years of majoritarian identity politics of the "most charismatic" leadership in India -- the biggest of the sub-continental countries. It has revealed frightening developments in communal and economic fronts and, a dismal prospect of coming out of it in years to come.The consequences would not remain confined inside the country but would affect its neighbours.
One can not help but is reminded of a past era of majoritarian identity politics of the "most charismatic" leadership in another country, in another continent, preceding WWII. Thanks to both of you for the interview.
Farhad Faisal Well put. To be more direct it was Germay's Hitler who put the Jews, homosexuals and gypsies in concentration camps and ......
If the future looks so depressive, Karan and Patel should quit the country and settled in Afghanistan or Pakistan.
Its time this is explained to the mass in their mother tongue if they cannot understand english.
Which monster including MMS ooen mouth against Italian lady between 2004 and 2014... you dharbaris, imporents never opened anybody your holes at that time..
Akaar was spot on.. told the blatant truth 😟😟 I am literally Afraid not having further hopes 😡😡😡🙏🙏🙏
Your recent arrest at the airport has made me walk into the bookshop! Thank you Modi Saab
Because he has insulated himself from the consequences, and he plus his friends/cronies actually benefit politically and financially from the consequences.
self-righteous, arrogant, reckless, superficial with no depth, immoral, self-absorbed, selfish, vengeful, narcissist, misguided, no empathy, merciless, crass, no class wannabe, dangerous .... compare this with people in history with true and real character who we idealize
Can you please name those great people you admire?
Aakar is being polite by being slightly charitable in his choice of phrases for describing Modi. The fact of the matter is that never in India have we had a man so crass and third rate as to willingly and deliberately destroy the institutions so painstakingly set up by Nehru and the stalwarts that came later. He is a curse and a blot on governance and administration in India.
I think he's saying that Nehru and Indira got away with it and so will Modi.
Personally Nehru was a higher order intellectual but unfortunately he was not very effective.
@@jammRJ he was effective. Todays fruits are laid by him. Bjp is trying to cut the root of it and transport us to medieval age of slavery. Bjp is the party of the feudals who have successfully used religion and have hijacked the democracy.
Thank you! Aptly put.
What Aakar Patel will not say or Karan Thapar will not point out is that labour force participation has been consistently declining in India since year 1995 and the most significant and sharp decline was witnessed during the period 2005-2010 when the Indian economy was supposedly booming and this data source is also World Bank which Mr Patel refers to - it is because critics peddle half truths that Narendra Modi continues to be popular and then they appear to wonder why?
Very honest perspective. Congratulations to both of you.
Absolutely correct.. modi has made india backward country... his attitude is the reason..he is adamant to the core..he should learn lessons from former prime ministers
