@@sukknn Just because the government declares Dindigul, Kanchipuram and Kumbakonam as corporations, they don't become a large city. For that matter, even Maharashtra, Chhattisgarh and Andhra Pradesh have labelled many underdeveloped, overpopulated, dusty, stinking towns with pathetic infrastructure as corporations. A big city should have the necessary infrastructure, services, amenities and aesthetics that make it one. Also it should have a mature population with a decent civic sense, open mindedness and progressive mentality. Going by that, Tamil Nadu has 5 "big" cities - Chennai, Coimbatore, Madurai, Tiruchchirappalli and Salem. Kerala has 6 corporations, but only Kochi and Thiruvananthapuram can be called big cities. Same with Karnataka, with 11 corporations, only 5 of them can be called "big" cities in the real sense. I don't even consider giving a city tag to god forsaken places like Kalaburagi & Vijayapura.
Tamilnadu is a diversified economy , exactly how a state should function without putting pressure on Chennai, Coimbatore, tutocorin, madurai , trichy ,salem , erode are examples and also Hosur.

Odisha has broken out of the poverty trap, most of the eastern India students aspire to study in odisha thanks to Naveen patnaik's governance, otherwise it was really poor on par with Bihar
@@juwanjoseph7028unfortunately Kerala is stagnant and actually going backwards. Get rid of communists otherwise kerala is doomed. At present they have run out of money. Yes it did well up-to 5 or 10years ago. But no longer. It is a beautiful state with lovely people. Communists are a big problem but if it changes now it will never have to look back. It is in your hands to prevent a Bengal.
Bullshit. Almost any policymaker with any degree of expertise speaks pretty openly. This guy has his eyes on a seat from Bengal at some point and regularly assails the faults of the state. That’s about it.
I do travel a lot ! As per my opinion, most advanced state in India is TN and second is Kerela. Most improved state in India is Telengana and Orissa. MP , Rajasthan and UP are also catching up. Recently MP has improved a lot. Indore is now exactly what Pune was around 10 years back and much cleaner.
As someone who has traveled. Though I love TN I won't consider it as advanced. There is a huge gap of ppl development across India, which some of the NE states, sikkim, Kerala, Goa are doing wonderful job.
@@jaiganesh388 go & check the datas, 2.7% Kerala population contributes 4% of the countrys GDP..Kerala only facing the tax looted as GST doesn't come back to state because of discrimination by BJP.
Instead of developing only tier one cities let’s move to tier 2 and tier 3 cities so that economy is inclusive and evenly grows. For example Tamilnadu has nine to ten cities the industries have been moved so the development is taking place all over the state.
It's a completely False statement, Singapore got Independence from Malaysia in 1965 then how come Singapore PM said this in 1960 there was no prime minister in Singapore before 1965😂

Very well explained by Mr. Sanyal. If we want Eastern India to grow, we need Kolkata going. I believe WestBengal followed by Odisha, Assam, North Eastern States, Jharkhand & Bihar can change the fortunate of Eastern part of India. Just like how Southern States are supporting eachother & still growing.
I am from rural part of Bihar. Let me tell you one thing,in past 10 year Bihar has grown significantly or I should say exponentially. Around 2013 ,my uncle sold lands at a cost of ₹1000 per decimal,today after around 10-11 years, it's ₹45000 per decimal. I am talking agricultural land in a village. Back then,even being living in a village tola barely away 1 km from NH,we didn't had rural pucca road,we didn't had power connection through poles,or cover wires. Today we have pucca road constructed under PMGSY and Power connection almost 18 hours a day. Bihar has sort of stabilized,but to a larger extent still today the majority of rural population depends on remittance sent by their labourers boys working in Banglore,Tamil Nadu,Delhi NCR,Mumbai,few to Patna. So,our growth of rural people heavily depends on remittance sent from other states.
Two more generations of UP and Bihar will become labourers. You guys are good voters . Your representation in Lok Sabha will also increase and South will lose it. And then you guys can amend Constitution also. No need to bother about South India because their representation will anyways decrease. Keep breeding. UP and Bihar is the Africa in India.
Thanks for highlighting ancient Kalinga maritime links to Java and Bali islands and the Bali jatra festival and we look forward to such an expedition very soon
Odisha should work on its system to again establish such a system afterall Odisha kalingas were the 1st to start maritime trade in India which inspired Chola👍
It was not social justice politics, it was the proximity of sea route for Chennai which has made a significant city even before that! Investment in education by Kamarajar helped a lot. Privatization of education by MGR boosted the higher education! Social justice warriors simply watered down education in govt schools and creates less qualified people hence the fight for NEET.
Goa and Sikkim must now concentrate on building knowledge economy. Given the lack of performance by Bengal and rest of north east India, Sikkim can be an educational hub. Similarly, Goa can become an education hub, given the fact that both its neighbours Karnataka and Maharashtra are industrial states, Goa can become a great educational hub!
34:24 - 37:20 1:02:55 "Kolkata needs to re-think itself as a modern city rather than wallowing on thinking of it as some sort of a derelict colonial hangover.. you have got to rebuild Kolkata in a modern way!" Highly appreciate the way Sanjeev Sir explains about what Calcutta has been and what Kolkata can be..
Why are State Budgets not discussed threadbare as is the case of the Central Budget? Shouldn't the media and the people of a particular state pay as much attention and demand as many answers from the incumbent government and/or party/parties
@@RSh-f5qcar sales in FY24, that is financial year ending April 2024 hit an all time high of 4 million, due to various reason - elections, heat wave, inflation car sales in first two quarters of FY25 has been affected but they will surely pick up.

Sir, Successful businessmen have been politically connected, whether in a state or central government, and they have paid a high price for this connection. We need more apolitical specialists with unrestricted authority to put an end to this chaos.
Someone qualified but not not in favour of betterment of country is meaningless,where as people like sanyal doing their job sincerely are thousand times better
While we may have disagreements, One thing the Modi Government has done right is to bring people who are not only experts in their field but also genuinely take pride in our culture and history. Sanjeev in particular is a historian par excellence. Contrasting, in the Congress era we had the NAC which had people like Harsh Mander who were filled with hatred against our culture.
I think the CM of WB should take the consultancy services from Mr Sanyal. He is a very knowledgeable human being and his knowledge could be utilized for the betterment and upliftment of Bengal/Kolkata. He should be hired for providing economic growth policies for WB. If PK could be hired by WB (Party) for Election/Roadmaps for TMC policies, then why Mr Sanyal cannot be hired for WB's economic growth? We need to understand our priorities.
he will recommend stopping or limiting freebies. he will also recommend streamlining proceses and removing bottlenecks. both are fundamental ways in with her party generates black money. efficiency is like poison to tmc. its like asking fungus to clean up the filth on which it is growing.
Problem with WB is that their leaders are at the most street activists and not statesman/ woman. They basically caters to them selves and party cadres rather than serving the state. Neither they bother to develop the state. Their concern is to remain in power at any cost . That’s why they focus on controlling rather than development. It’s not that they didn’t have good and competent people to run their state. E.g: Amartya Sen. Amit Nandi of FICCI etc but eventually none could deliver due to lack of vision and good intent.
I would actually disagree on having one super city driving the economy of a state as it increases regional inequality. This is a classic case in Karnataka where Bangalore is exceptional but the rest of the state has lots of catching up to do. I would argue that TN and Gujarat’s models of having multiple high level cities is more sustainable and equal.
He is anti bengali pseudo intellectual....transplants Bengal history of colonizing SriLanka onto Kalinga..he is trying hard to prove that West Bengal is doing poorer than Orissa and Assam.

M0r0n...did you even hear the conversation? He is recreating a 5th century Gupta era ship. Also, Tamils were not the first to sail ships....it was the Oriyas who first set sail for SL. Also, Gujarat has a maritime culture right from Harrapan times.

@@karthickjayaraman2090 Even till date South East Asians calls Indians as Keling from ancient name of Odisha Kalinga. Cambodian khamer empire Shailendra empire Burmese srikshetra Kingdom Srilankan vijya bahu Maldives 1st queen ruler Were from Odisha
Odisha's maritime is far older than the cholas. Please read up your history. There is an entire area named Kalingga in Java. Forget that , an entire kingdom of Kalingga was established in central Java based on the ancient Kalinga Kingdom that too in 500 ce. Cholas came much later(9th century onwards). Ever wondered why there was such a blood bath for Kalinga? It controlled the seas. The bay of Bengal was called as Kalinga sagar. Even Chanakya has mentioned the trade several times. There are many similarities in the culture found in Java, Indonesia and Odisha. Heck we even celebrate Bali Jatra ( Journey to Bali). Many few people know because we odias do not show off, but boita bandana is a festival which we celebrate, which is unlike any festival in India completely dedicated to the maritime history, similar festivals are celebrated across Indonesia, Java and Thailand. Sadhabas were known for their maritime skills. And I donot need to write about the link between Kalinga and Sri Lanka, refer to Mahavamsa when you get some time,all due to the maritime prowess of Kalinga. And I may add Lothal, Gujrat is even older than Kalinga when it comes to maritime trade. It's from the Harappan times! It's not always about South and North. Odisha is in the east btw. But do not bend facts. South had trade routes nobody denies the same but there is incredible history found everywhere. Be humble.
In west bengal, they still have the refugee rehabilitation (RR) department created afterward partition. It's a legacy department with nothing to do but exists nevertheless.
Can’t wait for the revival of Bali Jatra from Odisha to Indonesia. If the voyage to Oman, Indonesia go well, perhaps the other route would be to South Korea to revive the Ayodhya link. Mr. Sanyal is extremely intelligent and his tenure at Deutsche bank is a testament for it. Keep up the good work!
Star performers of the south left out Tamil nadu and kerala which is still driving the economy of the south , bengaluru has its name established because of TN and its resources and people
The speaker talks about petty politics then mentions Tamilnadu sparingly and says the anchors of south are Bangalore and Hyderabad while missing out on Chennai . Should the listener take everything that is said with a pinch of salt ?
The guy is surely biased , TN is a diversified strong economy since independence., because of its social indicators and policies it has remained a rich state in the country
I think Mr. Sanjeev Sanyal should write a book on Continuous Process Reforms, so that future generations can also understand and keep on resolving these ongoing problems. Mr. Sanyal, You are doing very good work, please keep at it, as along as you can 👍😊

Low paid jobs will only be there if we only train people for 1type of job.. we need trained people for all type of jobs 2ndly business creates jobs.. without business there will be no jobs
As a Maharashtrian, I feel that even in the podcast, we didn’t receive the fair recognition we deserve. We have been, and still are, a driving force for growth, but unfortunately, that growth is now benefiting neighboring regions. We've become accustomed to this. When our own leaders let us down, what can we expect from others?😢
The issue with MH is that it is developed only some cities. Other than a couple of cities, rural maharashtra is still poorly developed. Public facilities are old and no maintenance. Living standards of people are again pathetic in all major villages. I always wondered why being richest state in India, MH can't developed its villages and rural areas. Look at some south indian states, they have more developed villages and std of living is higher.

We are beginning to have a serious debate and concern about the absolute necessity of economic growth and rising economic standards.The alarming thing is the abysmal thinking about these things at the state level. I do not see these among state level politicians! Politics at the state level is the politics of personal and family aggrandisement.

Bravo Mr Sanyal you said it right good students of West Bengal are all moving out of Bengal and less educated semi literate those doing odd jobs are happy as they are enjoying government beneficiary scheme along with whole family doing some odd jobs and earning enough then there need. The victims of today’s Bengal are literate mediocre middle-class sacrificing all ambition aspirations . In Kolkata illiterate carpenter earns Rs 40,000 a month and Graduate or PG person earns Rs 15000 a month in shabby small business houses. Unless we create good opportunities for mediocre middle class through industry or expanding our IT sector nothing is going to change It’s high time our political leaders fall in line and accept the reality and work towards the path shown by Mr Sanyal
Its not Telangana that did well,but erstwhile Andhra Pradesh under the leadership of Chandrababu Naidu....Now we are throwing challenge to all the states of our country that Andhra Pradesh will reach top 3 position in less than 10years....We are coming massively...
India needs Administrative reforms more than Economic reforms. We are still administrated by the same bureaucratic structure that the Britishers used to Loot India and make it into a pauper state from the second largest economy we were during Aurangzeb era. Sanjeev Sanyal is trying to tinker at the peripheries of administrative reforms. A complete over hall is required. For example the Thanadar, Tahsildar and DM system of administration needs to be changed where these officers are not held responsible for any mistakes they make and hold power without responsibility, they have no responsibility to enhance growth. And are rarely punished but have a secure life long security.

He has outlined the problems, yet once again, we see no real solutions. Successive governments have failed to create a solid blueprint for restoring West Bengal’s lost glory, allowing its decline to persist. Ironically, certain so-called intellectuals seem to find a strange satisfaction in publicly criticizing Bengal, perhaps to enhance their reputations. But has Mr. Sanyal, as a noted thinker, truly identified concrete areas where West Bengal could once again lead and contribute to the national economy as it once did? Pointing fingers at the people and government for engaging in protests and sloganeering falls short of addressing the root issues. We must remember the historical impact of Bengalis in India’s renaissance-challenging social inequalities, advancing education, and producing countless freedom fighters who sacrificed everything for our country. Post-independence, however, successive governments drained Bengal’s resources, diverting them to other states in the name of socialism. Instead of creating shared prosperity, this approach has left Bengal economically vulnerable, while nations like China, though we may disagree with their system, have demonstrated the transformative power of effective policies. It’s time for an honest reckoning, one that goes beyond superficial criticism and seeks genuine solutions. We need a collective movement to address the structural issues and unlock Bengal’s potential once again. Let’s be clear: calls from certain sections of the public for undemocratic measures, such as imposing President’s Rule or orchestrating a public coup as was done in neighboring Bangladesh, are not the answer. What’s needed is a committed, constructive approach that involves all stakeholders-government, intellectuals, and the people-in charting a realistic path forward for West Bengal’s renewal.

As someone from North India, I genuinely feel a deep sense of regret for my friends in the South. It feels uncomfortable to admit, but the truth is that since India’s independence, there has been a disproportionate influence of North India over the South, which can sometimes feel like a form of colonization. I believe the southern states should have the full autonomy to decide their own path and shape their future without undue interference.

I love Sanjeev Sir's to the point & straight facts. Also loved he mentioned Odisha's Balijatra History, people are taught about, Ancient India & its naval prowess much less, so Odisha's naval history is even less covered. One point I see is, while agreeing with Sanjeev Sir's views on Kolkata to get revived, I personally & many of my friends from Odisha, Assam & West Bengal, don't see Kolkata, being the anchor point for Eastern India's growth. What is happening or should be the goal, is the multiple small to medium anchor points being driving eastern India. Kolkata is too much in mud, when it comes to political, economic, forward thinking etc.... Cities like Bhubaneswar, Cuttack, Rourkela, Guwahati, Ranchi etc..... will be much better than multi-diseased affected Kolkata, let Kolkata sort its own mess, which is easily going to take 10+ years if not less, considering if everything goes smoothly, without the current political scene that is damaging West Bengal. East can't wait for Kolkata to gets it act together & then move forward, time for other states to work hard & be on the development path, when eventually Kolkata recovers, east will, hopefully have multiple anchors & not just one. I only wish for Kolkata's recovery, but its also prudent to know the mess is so deep, it will take considerable time, effort, energy & dedication, and the change will only come when local people take the charge for real & not submit to TMC's goons & past CPI's act, which was similar.

From economic point of view sikkim has highest per capita income. Because of its special status income is tax free, so per capita encode of 8 lakh is actually 11 lakh.. but it doesn't allow any Indian to settle there.

People in lower income hierarchy paid huge price, we don’t need government jobs except maybe security that’s it.
Why can’t we build a new network for the east from Guwahati?? It could cover a lot of NE states. Better suited than Calcutta? Calcutta could join in if and when the govt and consequently policy changes!
One of the major reasons of our poor performance in the shipping sector, is the custom rules and policies...no company can do common sense business in ports due to strict custom regulations for spare parts and goods
Proud of you and initiatives taken and those under progress!! However I feel the skill India needs more thrust which can result into value addition to our large number of work forces.. We can use our younger generation in large number as assets if they are skilled sincerely not just on paper ..
It was a wonderful episode. However, I'd request you to touch the following topics when he comes back next time on the show. 1. Continuous depreciation of INR against USD and its consequences particularly on direct tax-paying middle class. 2. What do the direct tax-paying middle class get in return after paying 30% direct + 10-15% indirect taxes? 3. What policy changes are Government thinking of to increase the tax base? It definitely feels nice to see India growing up on several parameters but at the expense of what? Honest tax-paying salaried class?
We appreciate the kind words very much and we will ensure to ask Sanjeev sir these very well-thought-out questions in our next conversation with him. Thank you so much for tuning in! 🙏
The British made Bengal and Calcutta a major economy in Asia. The Portuguese made Goa The most prominent place in Asia & Africa. For business to thrive 3 things are require Peace, Law & Order.
Bengal was always rich it didnt lose on prosperity UNTIL the British era! the Anglos created the calcutta -hooghly-howrah industrial network and created lots of wealth there,true ,but it was the expense of the labour,blood and lives of other people in the region,which sucked away the wealth and put everything in the cities, with British gone, the urban wealth was sucked on by the dear good native politicians

@@sukknn Just because the government declares Dindigul, Kanchipuram and Kumbakonam as corporations, they don't become a large city. For that matter, even Maharashtra, Chhattisgarh and Andhra Pradesh have labelled many underdeveloped, overpopulated, dusty, stinking towns with pathetic infrastructure as corporations.
A big city should have the necessary infrastructure, services, amenities and aesthetics that make it one. Also it should have a mature population with a decent civic sense, open mindedness and progressive mentality. Going by that, Tamil Nadu has 5 "big" cities - Chennai, Coimbatore, Madurai, Tiruchchirappalli and Salem. Kerala has 6 corporations, but only Kochi and Thiruvananthapuram can be called big cities. Same with Karnataka, with 11 corporations, only 5 of them can be called "big" cities in the real sense. I don't even consider giving a city tag to god forsaken places like Kalaburagi & Vijayapura.
Tamilnadu is a diversified economy , exactly how a state should function without putting pressure on Chennai,

Very well explained by Mr. Sanyal. If we want Eastern India to grow, we need Kolkata going. I believe WestBengal followed by Odisha, Assam, North Eastern States, Jharkhand & Bihar can change the fortunate of Eastern part of India. Just like how Southern States are supporting eachother & still growing.
I am from rural part of Bihar.
Let me tell you one thing,in past 10 year Bihar has grown significantly or I should say exponentially.
Around 2013 ,my uncle sold lands at a cost of ₹1000 per decimal,today after around 10-11 years, it's ₹45000 per decimal.
I am talking agricultural land in a village.
Back then,even being living in a village tola barely away 1 km from NH,we didn't had rural pucca road,we didn't had power connection through poles,or cover wires.
Today we have pucca road constructed under PMGSY and Power connection almost 18 hours a day.
Bihar has sort of stabilized,but to a larger extent still today the majority of rural population depends on remittance sent by their labourers boys working in Banglore,Tamil Nadu,Delhi NCR,Mumbai,few to Patna.
So,our growth of rural people heavily depends on remittance sent from other states.
Rohingyas and bangladeshi also grown
But bihar need to pick it up on own and contribute on trade and revenue.
Two more generations of UP and Bihar will become labourers. You guys are good voters . Your representation in Lok Sabha will also increase and South will lose it. And then you guys can amend Constitution also. No need to bother about South India because their representation will anyways decrease. Keep breeding. UP and Bihar is the Africa in India.
That's good to hear, love from Kerala
all of india has grown. its not a question of who has grown but comparatively by how much and what is the quality of that growth.
Thanks for highlighting ancient Kalinga maritime links to Java and Bali islands and the Bali jatra festival and we look forward to such an expedition very soon

Investment in education by Kamarajar helped a lot.
Privatization of education by MGR boosted the higher education!
Social justice warriors simply watered down education in govt schools and creates less qualified people hence the fight for NEET.

Goa and Sikkim must now concentrate on building knowledge economy. Given the lack of performance by Bengal and rest of north east India, Sikkim can be an educational hub.
Similarly, Goa can become an education hub, given the fact that both its neighbours Karnataka and Maharashtra are industrial states, Goa can become a great educational hub!

While we may have disagreements, One thing the Modi Government has done right is to bring people who are not only experts in their field but also genuinely take pride in our culture and history. Sanjeev in particular is a historian par excellence.
Contrasting, in the Congress era we had the NAC which had people like Harsh Mander who were filled with hatred against our culture.
Very amusing coming from people who expect other's to earn money, accomplishments and language for them!!!
I think the CM of WB should take the consultancy services from Mr Sanyal. He is a very knowledgeable human being and his knowledge could be utilized for the betterment and upliftment of Bengal/Kolkata. He should be hired for providing economic growth policies for WB. If PK could be hired by WB (Party) for Election/Roadmaps for TMC policies, then why Mr Sanyal cannot be hired for WB's economic growth? We need to understand our priorities.
She is too full of herself and an egoistic woman to listen to him. We just need to get rid of her and TMC as whole
She is one the most crooked woman in the world,PK is another crook.
he will recommend stopping or limiting freebies. he will also recommend streamlining proceses and removing bottlenecks. both are fundamental ways in with her party generates black money. efficiency is like poison to tmc. its like asking fungus to clean up the filth on which it is growing.
He will merge West Bengal with Kalllingaaa.....
Problem with WB is that their leaders are at the most street activists and not statesman/ woman. They basically caters to them selves and party cadres rather than serving the state. Neither they bother to develop the state. Their concern is to remain in power at any cost . That’s why they focus on controlling rather than development. It’s not that they didn’t have good and competent people to run their state. E.g: Amartya Sen. Amit Nandi of FICCI etc but eventually none could deliver due to lack of vision and good intent.
I would actually disagree on having one super city driving the economy of a state as it increases regional inequality.
This is a classic case in Karnataka where Bangalore is exceptional but the rest of the state has lots of catching up to do.
I would argue that TN and Gujarat’s models of having multiple high level cities is more sustainable and equal.
but over-populated unlivable cities is the only way these crooks can get auto growth.
Kerala as a whole is one city.

Odisha's maritime is far older than the cholas. Please read up your history. There is an entire area named Kalingga in Java. Forget that , an entire kingdom of Kalingga was established in central Java based on the ancient Kalinga Kingdom that too in 500 ce. Cholas came much later(9th century onwards). Ever wondered why there was such a blood bath for Kalinga? It controlled the seas. The bay of Bengal was called as Kalinga sagar. Even Chanakya has mentioned the trade several times. There are many similarities in the culture found in Java, Indonesia and Odisha. Heck we even celebrate Bali Jatra ( Journey to Bali). Many few people know because we odias do not show off, but boita bandana is a festival which we celebrate, which is unlike any festival in India completely dedicated to the maritime history, similar festivals are celebrated across Indonesia, Java and Thailand. Sadhabas were known for their maritime skills. And I donot need to write about the link between Kalinga and Sri Lanka, refer to Mahavamsa when you get some time,all due to the maritime prowess of Kalinga. And I may add Lothal, Gujrat is even older than Kalinga when it comes to maritime trade. It's from the Harappan times! It's not always about South and North. Odisha is in the east btw. But do not bend facts. South had trade routes nobody denies the same but there is incredible history found everywhere. Be humble.
In west bengal, they still have the refugee rehabilitation (RR) department created afterward partition. It's a legacy department with nothing to do but exists nevertheless.
Can’t wait for the revival of Bali Jatra from Odisha to Indonesia. If the voyage to Oman, Indonesia go well, perhaps the other route would be to South Korea to revive the Ayodhya link. Mr. Sanyal is extremely intelligent and his tenure at Deutsche bank is a testament for it. Keep up the good work!
Star performers of the south left out Tamil nadu and kerala which is still driving the economy of the south , bengaluru has its name established because of TN and its resources and people

48:54 by saying Hyderabad being a major driver of economic growth in South India, I can sum up how much little understanding of Bengaluru's contribution u have.
GDP of Hyderabad : 58 Billion
GDP of Bengaluru : 110 Billion
No wonder why some people have some innate dislike and strong hate towards Bengaluru, maybe they were never able yo afford the rent here 🤡
To run a one big large corporation you need highly intellectual ceos , VPs and managers and running a country is like running 1000 big corporations that requires a humungous effort, highly intellectual people and accountability. However India is run administrative who come on quota or out corrupt. How you expect the country will run smoothly. People like Sanjiv sanyal cannot alone do anything. We need millions of Sanjeev Sanyal to make this country a developed one.
sanjeev sanyal, one gem of narendra modi"s team working for devloping india. salute to you.
Modi has nothing to do with this
😂😂😂
@@counterpoint9260he is talking about economic adviser counsil which directly report to pm and you tell us that pm has no influence when appointing them
Why india is behind
1.The lack of economic freedom
2.Socialism
3.Reservation causing drian of potential visionaries.
4.Lack of freedom of speech.
Only one community rejects freedom of speech.
U forgot nepotism and law. In usa here I feel the only thing that makes the USA great is the same law for all and nepotism doesn't work much. Even in business here if founder's kids are not doing well they will be given an avg position in their company. Although law is useless for gun violations, rape, false sueing etc things in usa
@@royprotocol No,all communities reject freedom of speech.Can I talk bad things about ram or Krishna?
@@Sankkham10 I did not forget.If they is economic freedom and less of socialism there will less political power and corruption and more of upward mobility for the masses.
@joevince8538 you can draw cartoons on Ganapati , Ram and treat them as your friend. But you dare to do the same with other community with your head intact.
India need cleanliness in food serving respect... Need discipline 🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️
Bravo Mr Sanyal you said it right good students of West Bengal are all moving out of Bengal and less educated semi literate those doing odd jobs are happy as they are enjoying government beneficiary scheme along with whole family doing some odd jobs and earning enough then there need. The victims of today’s Bengal are literate mediocre middle-class sacrificing all ambition aspirations . In Kolkata illiterate carpenter earns Rs 40,000 a month and Graduate or PG person earns Rs 15000 a month in shabby small business houses. Unless we create good opportunities for mediocre middle class through industry or expanding our IT sector nothing is going to change It’s high time our political leaders fall in line and accept the reality and work towards the path shown by Mr Sanyal
Culcutta busines was controlled by Marwadis. They moved to mumbai or delhi. May be the reason.
Its not Telangana that did well,but erstwhile Andhra Pradesh under the leadership of Chandrababu Naidu....Now we are throwing challenge to all the states of our country that Andhra Pradesh will reach top 3 position in less than 10years....We are coming massively...
Very good guy. Should be in Indian Gov
45:00 sir my question was anchor of middle india is which city? Why they are not part economic centre!
What is middle India ?
Nagpur, lucknow, jaipur, nashik, indore, bhopal, jabalpur, Raipur, prayagraj and Varanasi must share the load together.
India needs Administrative reforms more than Economic reforms. We are still administrated by the same bureaucratic structure that the Britishers used to Loot India and make it into a pauper state from the second largest economy we were during Aurangzeb era.
Sanjeev Sanyal is trying to tinker at the peripheries of administrative reforms. A complete over hall is required. For example the Thanadar, Tahsildar and DM system of administration needs to be changed where these officers are not held responsible for any mistakes they make and hold power without responsibility, they have no responsibility to enhance growth. And are rarely punished but have a secure life long security.
As a southindian from andhra state .......tamilnadu is developed in every sector ......despite loosing hyd ....still andhra is 8th richest state .....andhra will be 2nd tamilnadu.....has potential in every sector
I remember reading way back in the 80s a book that also has various books as bibliography. As it was based on actual history of early cholas of 2-3 century think it can come handy. It is a tamil.book called Yavana Rani(meaning foreign queen). It will show yugdi kalpatharu also in its bibliography
BJP person with a biased viewpoint
Won’t help the nation in any way
What a legend, love this pod!!
Thank you for your kind words and glad you liked it so much! Let us know who you'd like to see next on the channel!
This fellow seem to have a problem with TN, the second largest economy performing well on all social sectors!!
He has outlined the problems, yet once again, we see no real solutions. Successive governments have failed to create a solid blueprint for restoring West Bengal’s lost glory, allowing its decline to persist. Ironically, certain so-called intellectuals seem to find a strange satisfaction in publicly criticizing Bengal, perhaps to enhance their reputations. But has Mr. Sanyal, as a noted thinker, truly identified concrete areas where West Bengal could once again lead and contribute to the national economy as it once did?
Pointing fingers at the people and government for engaging in protests and sloganeering falls short of addressing the root issues. We must remember the historical impact of Bengalis in India’s renaissance-challenging social inequalities, advancing education, and producing countless freedom fighters who sacrificed everything for our country. Post-independence, however, successive governments drained Bengal’s resources, diverting them to other states in the name of socialism. Instead of creating shared prosperity, this approach has left Bengal economically vulnerable, while nations like China, though we may disagree with their system, have demonstrated the transformative power of effective policies.
It’s time for an honest reckoning, one that goes beyond superficial criticism and seeks genuine solutions. We need a collective movement to address the structural issues and unlock Bengal’s potential once again. Let’s be clear: calls from certain sections of the public for undemocratic measures, such as imposing President’s Rule or orchestrating a public coup as was done in neighboring Bangladesh, are not the answer. What’s needed is a committed, constructive approach that involves all stakeholders-government, intellectuals, and the people-in charting a realistic path forward for West Bengal’s renewal.
I am from West Bengal and what he is saying is absolutely truth.Left and Tmc ruined Bengal.They are extremely antibuisness.

Who they elect to form government if endogenous; it is not like Maharashtrians installed Left and TMC.
This system of voluntarily closing company offers big industry to close shell companies. Very smart move
He is thoroughly half baked sanghi
Maybe you too.
We need people like him as face for bidhansabha election as opposed to some cross party hooligan. Many such eminent bengali persons are there outside bengal. We badly need educated and clean personalities in wb politics.
As someone from North India, I genuinely feel a deep sense of regret for my friends in the South. It feels uncomfortable to admit, but the truth is that since India’s independence, there has been a disproportionate influence of North India over the South, which can sometimes feel like a form of colonization. I believe the southern states should have the full autonomy to decide their own path and shape their future without undue interference.
TN is a best performing state
North east has been the second class citizen of India. Don’t be surprised if they don’t want to be part of India anymore.
But still better than Bangladesh and Myanmar , for any investment you need stable government and no insurgency, safety then only people will come.
Where in Goa is this ship being built?
i think this has all the rumblings of a faith driven project. there has been 1000 years of expertise that has gone into shipbuilding and we are apparently , arguably looking back, 1000 years. we need to stop fixating on some glorious past . just like when he said 'freight equalization has been revoked 30 years ago, now get on with it'; hope this principle is used and we move on from the atomic bombs and brahmastras of the past
Dude you know tamilnadu??the original sons of this soil??2nd richest state in india
Not really, but yes Tamilnadu is rich. But GDP per capita of Tamilnadu is behind Telangana, Karnataka and Haryana. But all these states + Gujarat, Puducherry, Kerala and Andaman and Nicobar are all considered rich.
Check my other comment I left recently on this video for gdp per capita list of all states, arrange comments by newest.

Hi Sanjeev, hope you are doing good and praying you do well.
In an army formation HQs, I did a similar thing by "deleting" about 700 useless Reports & Returns. So much saving of energy, time, stationary, headache on both ends as well.
@The Neon Show - The day India removes its rose-coloured glasses and steps out of its colonial shadow-recognizing that true independence means making tough decisions for its own future-is the day it will rise once again, like in the days of the maharajas. Then, its billion people can truly take their place in the global community of nations.😎
Tamilnadu ❤
I love Sanjeev Sir's to the point & straight facts. Also loved he mentioned Odisha's Balijatra History, people are taught about, Ancient India & its naval prowess much less, so Odisha's naval history is even less covered.
One point I see is, while agreeing with Sanjeev Sir's views on Kolkata to get revived, I personally & many of my friends from Odisha, Assam & West Bengal, don't see Kolkata, being the anchor point for Eastern India's growth.
What is happening or should be the goal, is the multiple small to medium anchor points being driving eastern India. Kolkata is too much in mud, when it comes to political, economic, forward thinking etc....
Cities like Bhubaneswar, Cuttack, Rourkela, Guwahati, Ranchi etc..... will be much better than multi-diseased affected Kolkata, let Kolkata sort its own mess, which is easily going to take 10+ years if not less, considering if everything goes smoothly, without the current political scene that is damaging West Bengal. East can't wait for Kolkata to gets it act together & then move forward, time for other states to work hard & be on the development path, when eventually Kolkata recovers, east will, hopefully have multiple anchors & not just one.
I only wish for Kolkata's recovery, but its also prudent to know the mess is so deep, it will take considerable time, effort, energy & dedication, and the change will only come when local people take the charge for real & not submit to TMC's goons & past CPI's act, which was similar.
Thank you sir, for mentioning Southern-India (which actually it is)and not south-India.
Irrational attachment to agriculture despite over production is holding India back.
Where is the overproduction???? India is a massive importer of pulses and oilseeds and dairy products.
@@RSh-f5q
Because India has a horribly inefficient agriculture where the farmers will never want to evolve past their feudal systems and use modern machinery, because then for every acre of land 10 people will be unemployed. Can you imagine little Netherlands agricultural exports are higher than India? Shameful.
He is a genius 🇮🇳❣️
It's always an enriching experience to listen to Sir and an even more admiration for the work that he is doing, especially corporatisation of the government sector.
About Goa, there's more to it than tourism, it's also about the culture and ancient architecture of temples and the religious fervor with which certain practices are still maintained. Here though it's the North and South - Goa divide that persists.
Also a special mention needs to be made of Switzerland and many such European countries which have a place on global map mainly because of tourism and dairy farming - there indeed are some takeaways for us as a nation
Where we can see update on that Bali yaatra ship!!
Mind blowing conversation 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
From economic point of view sikkim has highest per capita income. Because of its special status income is tax free, so per capita encode of 8 lakh is actually 11 lakh.. but it doesn't allow any Indian to settle there. Even children of outsiders born in silkkim r not eligible for govt job or to own any land.. So Still it has population of only @ 6.5 lakh..so complete socio-economic data shall be considered rather than only economic data.
Even as Dr. SANJEEV mentions his project to highlight our country s ancient maritime skills.. he only mentions Guptas not the Cholas.. easy to see his blindslide.. if intellectual s like him have biased point of views, how can we expect normal politicians from the center to behave unbiased.. scary to think.. please embrace every part of our culture as over own.. not just your own preferential one's.. this goes both ways.. hope our common citizens evolve in this direction
Thank you for such content.
Hope you were able to gain some valuable insights from the episode and thank you so much for tuning in! 🙏
Sanyal is 100% correct . Submarines, commercial ships , & also Aeronautics, building commercial Aeroplanes.
thank you sir for the concern for kolkata
He is absolutely right.
Did he mention the traditional ship building industry in Beypore, Kerala?
Please remove most of the government jobs from the system, all these years government jobs kept common citizens deprived from all the government services delivery or put them in queue, the government jobs remain a self-serving utility hardly any work delivered by theses government employees without bribes to common citizens. People in lower income hierarchy paid huge price, we don’t need government jobs except maybe security that’s it.
God save West Bengal
Pray to kalima save west bengal
Why can’t we build a new network for the east from Guwahati?? It could cover a lot of NE states. Better suited than Calcutta? Calcutta could join in if and when the govt and consequently policy changes!
What is the National income
One of the major reasons of our poor performance in the shipping sector, is the custom rules and policies...no company can do common sense business in ports due to strict custom regulations for spare parts and goods
Proud of you and initiatives taken and those under progress!!
However I feel the skill India needs more thrust which can result into value addition to our large number of work forces..
We can use our younger generation in large number as assets if they are skilled sincerely not just on paper ..
Mr. Sanyal look like a Tough guy. quite fit also
It was a wonderful episode. However, I'd request you to touch the following topics when he comes back next time on the show.
1. Continuous depreciation of INR against USD and its consequences particularly on direct tax-paying middle class.
2. What do the direct tax-paying middle class get in return after paying 30% direct + 10-15% indirect taxes?
3. What policy changes are Government thinking of to increase the tax base?
It definitely feels nice to see India growing up on several parameters but at the expense of what? Honest tax-paying salaried class?
We appreciate the kind words very much and we will ensure to ask Sanjeev sir these very well-thought-out questions in our next conversation with him. Thank you so much for tuning in! 🙏
What's the price for this piece..? Need one for white washing work.
The British made Bengal and Calcutta a major economy in Asia.
The Portuguese made Goa The most prominent place in Asia & Africa.
For business to thrive 3 things are require Peace, Law & Order.
Even before the British Bengal used to contribute 25% of then India’s GDP..
@@dasaritra007 🤣🤣🤣
Bengal was always rich it didnt lose on prosperity UNTIL the British era! the Anglos created the calcutta -hooghly-howrah industrial network and created lots of wealth there,true ,but it was the expense of the labour,blood and lives of other people in the region,which sucked away the wealth and put everything in the cities, with British gone, the urban wealth was sucked on by the dear good native politicians
