Excellent bureaucrat and precious insights into how to conduct oneself whether you are a public servant as civil service officer or as a politician. Golden words which can make life better for everyone and the country above all. Honesty, integrity and uprightness are hallmarks of Shri Anil Swaroop ji. Wishing him a long and peaceful life 💐👏🙏😊
What is the use of speaking out when he is retired ..we need some one like Edward Snowden who have courage to be accountable to people not to govt while being in office ..I work in govt set up and it is lut pat to full scale and drama of har ghar tiranga ...
He is speaking in favour of pm......u will get retired seat man..its like all decision were made by bureaucrats and pm blindly accepted everything.....😅😅😅😅
I think whatever image Modi has but he has far better work than UPA. Obviously he could have done much more but considering overall eco system and mindset of Government Employees it is good work especially in Infra and ease of doing business But far less on Education quality and job creations
@@nationalist7296 I tend to believe your views on Modi's governance model but when u see in the context of the electoral bonds and the infra projects the whole growth story falls apart. I also believe that govt has done well in many sectors like in promotion of renewable energy and tourism, transport. But again we have to see their means through which they obtain the ends. Their means are illicit and illegal.
You can really feel the grace in his face, satisfaction / happiness / joy in his expressions. Those you can not find from the faces of bureaucrats who surrenders every thing ( Individuality) (duty) to the politicians. I am enough optimistic that upcoming batches definitely take him as inspiration and help the governments to rule in true democratic way.
It’s Modi’s style of working. First allow them to speak to know who is vocal, critical. Signal them out and treat them differently to silent them. Demonetisation was to win elections nearby, never to curb black money.
The limited Economics knowledge of this top IAS officer is clear from his assessment that Demonetization was a good idea. Untrained, and economically semi-literate officers, sometimes self-righteous egoists, run critical economic decisions of this Government. My country will never realize its potential until this institution of UPSC is reformed throughout.
We need more such upright and honest beauraecrats to come up and say what we need to do to clear the mess which we today find ourselves in it. Great bureaucrat.
We are in the best position in our history, all sectors are firing up, I dont know which economics you read, all time high digital payments, millions coming in tax bracket, oil bonds which were created by UPA are now paid, banks are at the best position from UPA govt when they are placed in emergency situation that they had to be monitored, from all time high NPA to lowest NPA in 2 decades. Only mess is in ur brain.
Thank you for the interview, Liked it, it was excellent and appreciate the openness and honesty of the officer. It Sends out good vibes to the readers.
all the black money was accumulated by rich people by exchanging it with bank manager with a 30 percentage cut which I think went into election expense the next year
You can feel and analyse all those points which are often being talked about for a good civil servant. Calmly talking about all the critical issues, indirectly respecting all the points of view. Thanks to the Union public service commission for choosing him for the post of Indian administrative service officer.
Excellent interview and Very candid and clear views reflected!!. Instances, experiences, and logical conclusions espoused in the Interview reflect grit and courage to pen down in a book! Objective analysis based on interaction with Politician, and the views expressed with courage and conviction in past and in the book by Shri Anil Swaroop ji speak volumes! Should enhance Ethics and Moral fabric for next generation Bureaucrats! Country need to be taken to higher level by collective decision making approach between the Ministers and the Bureaucrats !💐
Share this video to those who always ask for facts and true public opinion Interviews can also be done like this everything done by current govt is good no need to check fact
Thanks a lòtfor this conversation. This ɓuilds hope in mind in this darker period of our democracy, gìvès courage to dream again for a brighter India nð growing new hope of positivity
Great interview very candid and clearly objective ! IAS officers like Mr. Anil Swarup are the real unknown heroes of our administrative services. Hope the PMO can help the country to benefit by arranging his services for inspirational training of astute officers our country needs . We need more such revelations by our administrative services to put forward the blueprint of future healthy governance ( if democracy has to succeed healthily ).
This is a very common practice, whenever a leader takes on the position for the first time, he will engage more people initially. Once he has a basic understanding of the system, he will only engage with the select few. I have seen this over and over again. This should not be considered as callousness, indifference or shortcoming of the leader
I worked in PSU Indian bureaucrats fish in troubled water. They do not perform they only create impression of accomplishment. During service they will not advice the political bosses what is good to the country. Most Educated criminals can't be brought under law.
Agree… he didn’t tell us what factually incorrect statements PM was making. Similarly he didn’t understand why 2000 rupee notes were introduced… Senior RBI guy had told me that it was simply ensure that rumor about demonetisation doesn’t get leaked out. Didn’t any not so smart person tell this oversmart Babu.
This interview is example of how good our bureaucrats are in creating “hard working image” but reality is politicians can’t do anything without permission from these people
Many bureaucrats are the sole reason India stayed poor all these days until Modi came. To this day, Bureaucracy works for the British Empire/Commonwealth/India, not for Bhaarat
@@jameammarijr.2248 Man the comments on good bureaucrats amazes me! Lord save this country. 70 years we didnt have the basic provisioning of toilets. Not a modi simp but this man took it on a war footing. And it makes you wonder what kind of advice the IAS earlier were doling.
@@Manoj12345-x In fact if you go deeper, manmohan Singh as finance secretary (working for the West from 1965 after LB Shastri was killed) was the sole reason India became bankrupt in 1991. we were taught he was the savior of indian economy. jai hind brother.

Great insights and amazing clarity of thoughts!! Shows the inner workings of bureaucracy and demonstrates that just having good intentions are not enough, the will to accomplish things with success is extremely important.
As somebody who works closely with their ilk, I am happy to finally come across one who knows that the sun doesn't shine through his every orifice. I honestly wish we'd stop idolizing them. It's grating. India will progress leaps and bounds when their cabal ceases to exist.
Really this gentleman is precious to adminstration when a elected government runs the country and keep a Tab on economy and peoples needs Now feels we are missing his experience and expertise ❤❤
Faith in the institutions are eroding ? Yes ! And why ? The institutions were being manipulated without any scruples by UPA Govt especially the INC. In the present dispensation at the Centre, these institutions are being overhauled to the extent of being extinguished sometimes deservingly
I distrust the bureaucrats. They are wily. No politician can take a corrupt decision without the suitable file notings by the bureaucrat. Please get this straight. No politician exposes the bureaucrat for obvious reasons. When these bureaucrat are out of of power or favour they wear the cap of honesty and spill the beans against the politician who did not favor him. If we have honest and service oriented bureaucrats politicians will behave.
China has a bigger population than India's, yet it is a power to reckon with. Corruption and hypocrisy are bigger challenges in India - surprising, given the grand ancient culture & tradition of India
@@olympiad.2108 India has bigger population than china. Also, China has huuuuge corruption. It's just that there corruption is at the top lovel , but in India it is at all levels
Murakh Indian population good for nothing. We don't even follow basic yama niyama, not interested in learning, no self discipline, no respect for creativity or perfection, we will cheat even our own grandmother's.. what can any politician do???
@@olympiad.2108 bruh i think you forgot one important fact- *China is a dictatorship* of course they would be able to implement policies efficiently because there is no one who can raise their voice against the decision whereas in india the opposition always tries to oppose any and all policies brought forth by the govt. just because their own political gain or agenda. They don't care whether the policy is actually good for the nation or not and try to mislead people into opposing the policy just for their own gain. Now, the people too are responsible for being so easily mislead and opposing a policy just because their fav. Politician has mislead them. A good example of this would be the new farm bills or the POSCO case in odisha.
He is like umpteen number of bureaucrats who are concerned about their careers while in service and become bold and pious after retirement. This reminds me of the resignation letter of Subhas Chandra Bose from Indian Civil Service in which he even returned the stipend he received till then. One of his comments is after demonetization only one hundred rupee notes should have been allowed. Just think of the chaos it would have caused. In rural India where most of the transactions, particularly in the agricultural sectors are carried out in cash. Again when they could not print sufficient number of five hundred and two thousand rupee notes, does Mr. Swarup think it is possible to print sufficient number of one hundred rupee notes? Every one was cursing the demonetization and said it had a profound negative effect on the economy. What would have happened if only one hundred rupee notes were printed and there was a huge shortage of them?
This is the very first time i have seen a sharp, intelligent, fact teller , honest (as per my understanding), brave or most important a fine bureaucrate in my entire life where i also have seen thousands of videos or interviews of IAS officers this is best of all of them .
What a lovely interview. If only more bureaucrats were like this! A real gem - speak your mind before a decision is taken. But once a decision is take, even if it is contrary to your opinion, go full hog to implement it. 👏
My opinion on the points discussed in the interview: 1. The reason there was indecision in the UPA government, and Mr. Manmohan Singh couldn't rule over the ministers maybe because he was never intended to rule over them. The ministers who were put in charge were by the ruling party to share the power between the senior leaders of the party with little to no oversight by the PM. It may have been done so to keep senior leader happy until the party could bring the leader who has born with the birth right to rule over those senior members of the party. 2. The PMO's approval is required for the decision taken by other ministries maybe because the PM understands that the people have put him in charge of the government and feels that it is his responsibility to make sure no minister falls out of line, maybe trying to avoid the mistakes of the government ruled before him. 3. The Demonetisation was executed poorly maybe because they simply couldn't consult with everyone who are qualified enough to guide them before the decision was taken simply because the people guiding the government could very likely be involved with black money themselves and could leak the information even before the decision was taken, hence defeating the sole purpose. Perhaps the abrupt decision to implement it might have been influenced by someone getting the information out, so they announced it before it got leaked. I am entitled to my opinion, so does everyone else. [I highly doubt that anyone would read through this but if you did, then I thank you for your attention. : ) peace.]
There are lots of decisions poorly taken by govt and mismanagement Not only demonetisation, lockdowns, CAA,NRC, Manipur, but thousands of decision are made stupidly
To the best of my understanding, some of the major reasons for indecision were motivated from foreign interference against Bharat's growth by channeling NGOs who were litigating all the major projects one by one.
A very nice, indeed very articulate IAS officer. Shri Anil Swarup epitomises truth and this aspect of his personality is worth thousands of working officers pervading over the country and pathed themselves up with ranks and distinction somewhere.
fellow is trying to sell his book just before the coming national elections... articulate guys are much much more crooked than the others who are not so articulate...
Now brut india this is propaganda 😂😂😂 he said many good things about the modi govt and you put up the thumbnail stating the what went wrong 😂😂 if you want veiws make proxy accounts
Modi bhakts cant even understand the grave concern this guy stated about NDA govt. He made sure to say it in the most sugarcoated way to avoid ED raid. Low levels of IQ and democratic sense of modi bhakts evident .
They're by law made to act that way. On top of that netagiri will come in faster than pizza if they try anything funny. Post retirements all former Netas will see this on TV just like us and can't do anything
Brilliant interview. We need more of such honest bureaucrats who don't bow down to the pressure from the politicians and have the courage to talk their mind. Although, this appears to be an interview to promote his book, it observations are still valid.
You will see all these ex officers coming out speaking so truthfully that you wonder were not having spine while in power. Also you see only those who might not got post retirement assignment only speak truth or so called truth why is that.?
In any government, there should be space for honest opinions and free discussions. In addition beaurocracy should have stronger spine. Unfortunately such utopia doesnot exist in real world specially in India. Even senior ministers also try to avoid their opinions and try to trim their sails according to what they feel is on mind of top leader. It may be Modiji, Rajiv Gandhi or Indira Gandhi. Lastly, Even top men/ women take it personally if you try to swim against the current. Remember how foreign secretary was changed during Rajiv regime. Govindacharya and Nanaji Deshmukh when they disagree with man at helms. A true leader should keep critics next to him, if he want to remain in touch with reality. Unfortunately it is not feasible at leadt in India and fault lies in our attitude of taking easy way out.
The fact that a senior bureaucrat thought that black wealth is equal to stacks of cash shows why we are where we are!! This type of WhatsApp uncle thinking will be the death of us.
@@Bis_D_Gaming, frontline guy farting about black money when nearly 98% of the money came back into the banks. Will you burn your home to get rid of a few rats who crawled into it?.
This is one of the best interviews i have seen in recent times. Mehak was fantastic. I liked the line of neural questioning she followed. So was Mr. Anil Swarup. The glimpses of what went on behind the scenes give hints of truth i didn't know. Wish more IAS officers came up for interviews like these.
As a civil servant he is smart enough to know that printing was challenge, hence the larger denominator. As now we can see that the RBI has got all of them back which is a great thing. We must discourage cash.
The process of 1000 Rs notes converted into 2000 rs notes is called declaration of cash on hand. Once you are compelled to declare cash on hand your black money is declared, and naturally brought into tax account. 2000 rs currency is to reduce the load of paper currency. It was a very good idea, implemented to its maximum possibilities in our so much complex regime. Unlike he said, the effect of demonization is multiple. Most effects are seen on sucessive change in economic and political changes happened. Generally people expected they are going to get back the result in money.
This is one my most liked interview videos I have got a view of the governence untill now. Thanks to Anil sir and Brut for this conversation video. I would certainly try to buy and read the book by him. Kudos!
@@rn96 Modi is very narcissistic but he's gonna win for sure. ✌️🇮🇳. Cry liberals. I don't like his hindutva approach though. The youth is becoming too radical on both sides. Religion should be away from school and politics.
Very good Interview. I am sad Indian Politics is so rotten. Hope more learned and honest leaders come up to take positions of politics. Hope my India my Bharat becomes a Great country where there would be zero poverty and every is living happily. India /Bharat is the the most beautiful Garden in this entire world.
I generally do not have high opinions about IAS officers and it gets further validated after hearing Anil Swarup interview. I am amazed and shocked to hear on the first part of this interview that he felt demonetisation was a good idea as he knew by this the lots of black money a CM whom he knew had made will all be gone. Now can there be a more naive person than Anil Swarup and then he served as secretary to the Government of India in different ministries. I am again amazed why we listen to such foolhardies.
First MOJO, now Brut. This "retired bureaucrat" seems to be part of a toolkit. I hope he doesn't embarrass himself too much. There is still a long way to go for 2024 elections. Just an honest tax-payer here who indirectly has paid for the "speaks his mind" retired bureaucrat's salary and now for his pension.
Indias greatest tragedy today is the lack of spine among people in important positions. A fundamental of a strong democracy. CBI chiefs, ED, RBI, ruling party MPs, CAG, AG, judiciary, IAS officers, long list.

It’s Modi’s style of working. First allow them to speak to know who is vocal, critical. Signal them out and treat them differently to silent them. Demonetisation was to win elections nearby, never to curb black money.

Wonderful and i applaud truth telling by brut and mr. Aniljee
My opinion on the points discussed in the interview:

The ministers who were put in charge were by the ruling party to share the power between the senior leaders of the party with little to no oversight by the PM.

Valid points.
Demonitization was brilliant ly done
There are lots of decisions poorly taken by govt and mismanagement
Not only demonetisation, lockdowns, CAA,NRC, Manipur, but thousands of decision are made stupidly
Demonetisation was executed in an extraordinary manner. It was to take out black money from corrupt people. It served it's purpose
To the best of my understanding, some of the major reasons for indecision were motivated from foreign interference against Bharat's growth by channeling NGOs who were litigating all the major projects one by one.
Very useful discussion useful for the next generations as well. 🙏

@Mvar731 but that's fact. He saved chiddu or why would shah Modi leave him
All politicians take care of each other 😂
Federalism ह ⚓ल⚖️ government
He is being diplomatic.
Perhaps they told him.
Why do Indian bureaucrats suddenly grow a conscience after their retirement?
Correct
They're by law made to act that way. On top of that netagiri will come in faster than pizza if they try anything funny. Post retirements all former Netas will see this on TV just like us and can't do anything
They don't. Have a cup of tea with them and you'll see their public words are made to make you think otherwise.
They expect post retirement benefits
All Indian bureaucrats are spineless.....those with a spine prematurely retire unwilling to toe the line of politicians..... that's the bitter truth 😇
Thanks for posting.
Bureaucracy was invented by the British, however the Indians perfected it.
The interviewer is doing a great job. Thoroughly prepared, well balanced cross questioning. Well done. Her name is not mentioned anywhere.
Mentioned at 0:30 mehak kasbekar
Brilliant interview. We need more of such honest bureaucrats who don't bow down to the pressure from the politicians and have the courage to talk their mind. Although, this appears to be an interview to promote his book, it observations are still valid.
You will see all these ex officers coming out speaking so truthfully that you wonder were not having spine while in power. Also you see only those who might not got post retirement assignment only speak truth or so called truth why is that.?
Andwhy is the channel brut?
We need many more honest and trustworthy and frank Bureaucrats like him for our democracy
Bold interview! Brave and honest opinion by Swarup Sir. Clear and concise.
I like the honesty of this man. India needs more of India in the rooms of power!!
Integrity and ethics- PRICELESS!!!!
In any government, there should be space for honest opinions and free discussions. In addition beaurocracy should have stronger spine. Unfortunately such utopia doesnot exist in real world specially in India. Even senior ministers also try to avoid their opinions and try to trim their sails according to what they feel is on mind of top leader. It may be Modiji, Rajiv Gandhi or Indira Gandhi. Lastly, Even top men/ women take it personally if you try to swim against the current. Remember how foreign secretary was changed during Rajiv regime. Govindacharya and Nanaji Deshmukh when they disagree with man at helms. A true leader should keep critics next to him, if he want to remain in touch with reality. Unfortunately it is not feasible at leadt in India and fault lies in our attitude of taking easy way out.
Fantastic interview.
Some of the finest journalist interviews. Good job brut. Amazing officer
Best journalist because justified govt policies that's what media should do only support govt

Omg!! I thoroughly enjoyed this interview. I could hear him speak all day 👏🏻👏🏻
The fact that a senior bureaucrat thought that black wealth is equal to stacks of cash shows why we are where we are!! This type of WhatsApp uncle thinking will be the death of us.
You cannot deny his point either
This is a guy who were in frontlines of all this things. You are the one who is just a keyboard warrior.😂

Will you burn your home to get rid of a few rats who crawled into it?.
The questions sre silly....
The officer himself wonders about the reason for some of the actions by yhe Govt. And the anchor is asking him "Why?"
This is one of the best interviews i have seen in recent times.
Mehak was fantastic. I liked the line of neural questioning she followed.
So was Mr. Anil Swarup. The glimpses of what went on behind the scenes give hints of truth i didn't know. Wish more IAS officers came up for interviews like these.
Thanks lot for bringing such great personalities and asking relevant questions. Not like barking dogs of present day so called National medias.
Great pearls of wisdom when you have been put out pasture!
Simple language. Modi is power hungry. Power has made him insane
As a civil servant he is smart enough to know that printing was challenge, hence the larger denominator. As now we can see that the RBI has got all of them back which is a great thing. We must discourage cash.
Possibly he is not smart enough to understand this simple matter
Before we depend entirely of going online, Govt should develop a good leash on online fraud
Digital world is a prison. You will not know it till the doors shut
Everything online would be a bigger disaster
Excellent video with a great wealth of information.
Love ❤ this man for his courage, confidence and honesty. India needs such bureaucrats for the democracy to survive!
Fantastic interview , very candid ,transparent and insighful. Its a great pleasure hearing you so open. T
Superbly honest & candid....this gentleman. Wish we had many more civil servants like him
Sir u spoke se well n confidently, i always like to
Listen u even in some lucky dinners at my home🙏
The process of 1000 Rs notes converted into 2000 rs notes is called declaration of cash on hand. Once you are compelled to declare cash on hand your black money is declared, and naturally brought into tax account.
2000 rs currency is to reduce the load of paper currency.
It was a very good idea, implemented to its maximum possibilities in our so much complex regime.
Unlike he said, the effect of demonization is multiple. Most effects are seen on sucessive change in economic and political changes happened. Generally people expected they are going to get back the result in money.
Probably this is the reason, he wasn't a part of the team that advised PM. They can't think out of the box.
This is one my most liked interview videos I have got a view of the governence untill now. Thanks to Anil sir and Brut for this conversation video. I would certainly try to buy and read the book by him. Kudos!
Excellent interview! An excellent analysis on the two govts.
If truths are hidden, that is very bad for our country!

But only modi will win sir … no matter what you guys do
its not about win or loose its about knowing @@rn96
@@rn96 Modi is very narcissistic but he's gonna win for sure. ✌️🇮🇳. Cry liberals. I don't like his hindutva approach though. The youth is becoming too radical on both sides. Religion should be away from school and politics.
Very good Interview. I am sad Indian Politics is so rotten. Hope more learned and honest leaders come up to take positions of politics. Hope my India my Bharat becomes a Great country where there would be zero poverty and every is living happily. India /Bharat is the the most beautiful Garden in this entire world.
I generally do not have high opinions about IAS officers and it gets further validated after hearing Anil Swarup interview. I am amazed and shocked to hear on the first part of this interview that he felt demonetisation was a good idea as he knew by this the lots of black money a CM whom he knew had made will all be gone. Now can there be a more naive person than Anil Swarup and then he served as secretary to the Government of India in different ministries. I am again amazed why we listen to such foolhardies.
Just one word.. Super guy!! Glad that he was selected for the IAS position.
He is a typical bureaucrat. He will tell u everything except the main thing... Still living in British era ..
Awesome interview
Agenda of a bureaucrat can never be taken at face value. What is " Something Happened"
Initially he was very interactive and then he changed. Well, you should know by now why he changed. We can see it till today.
To be true to your self under such trying circumstances - commendable. 👍
Loved the interview, looking forward for more ❤
Very calculated balanced and carefully articulated,ke3ping the respect and speaking ones mind...
Problem with Govt babus, they have solutions for everything when they are outta power like RAGHURAM RAJAN.
True
His honesty evidenced by his views. Very proud to hear from such a person. Every administrator should have him as a roll model.
First MOJO, now Brut.
This "retired bureaucrat" seems to be part of a toolkit. I hope he doesn't embarrass himself too much. There is still a long way to go for 2024 elections. Just an honest tax-payer here who indirectly has paid for the "speaks his mind" retired bureaucrat's salary and now for his pension.
😂😂😂toolkit h 😂😂😂
ofc he is gonna speak his mind since he is retired and elections are near
right unbiased brut who empowered mahua moitra as the best new mp
LOL
Brut is working overtime for 2024 election
Very articulate person.
Indias greatest tragedy today is the lack of spine among people in important positions. A fundamental of a strong democracy. CBI chiefs, ED, RBI, ruling party MPs, CAG, AG, judiciary, IAS officers, long list.
Beautiful Interview I e joyed I am a srilankan what a great civil servant I salute u sir
Amazing interview! Every GenZ should watch this before voting. Understanding politics and how things actually work!
I think GenZ is more involved in politics then millennials and GenX. They understand the politics why better then us.
Brut India : started 3 months project . well done
Sour grapes of bureaucrats who only open their mouth after getting retirement benefits
Exactly what i was thinking. plus modi called the IAs babus. Since then he hasbeen nursing a bruised ego
Looks like you didn't watch the interview and just came down blabbering in the comments.
critics are important
