*Fun Fact* : Bankim Chandra Chattopadhyay was the author of the book “Anandamath”, from which the song “Vande Mataram” has been adopted. That book talked about a band of rebels who fought an armed revolution to establish a nation based on *Hindu Nationalism* . That book served as an inspiration for thousands of Bengali youths to take up arms for freedom struggle. Maybe that’s why BJP is very keen to adopt Bankim Chandra Chattopadhyay while TMC always maintain a respectable distance from him.
Here're some numbers. *Phases in W.Bengal Election*:- 2021: 8 2016: 7 2011: 6 *Phases in Tamil Nadu Election*:- 2021: 1 2016: 1 2011: 1 Why are they acting like this is some totally unseen and crazy different plan? Feels like a pre-loss excuse to me!

This is definitely one of the best CTC of this year. So much research and hard work must have gone to prove his points. This is the reason I pay and watch CTC. Also, I would like to add one more point, it's just not the cultural Icons from each region, Modiji also calls out and applauds all the common person from different states for their bravery, innovations etc in his famous 'Mann ki baat' show. And whenever I watch that show I see a man telling whole world about India and it's amazing & skillful people, there's just no political angle to it. It's very informative and inspiring to watch. Thank you Modiji for making me aware and proud of my own country.

BJP is doing this because Mamata Banerjee, atleast in rural Bengal has been successful in convincing people that this as a Bengali vs NonBengali election. She has run a “Bengal ki Beti” campaign. This is why BJP has to do this. You mentioned Tamil Nadu. There also the local parties have successfully kept out BJP by painting them as outsiders. BJP doesn’t use this strategy in other states as much.
Mr Gupta in all expansive talk seems to ignore the fact that in this all India exercise of digging out Indian heroes of the past are being truly inclusive, and challenging The Family centrisism of the dying Congress. Also in his run around of accounts Mr Gupta makes a factual error by slight of hand - BJP did not rope Mr E Sreedharan. It was Mr E Sreedharan on his own volition opted to join the BJP. One of the key reasons that Mr Sreedharan offered was that he wanted to save Kerala from the prolonged misrule of both the Communists (LDF) and the Congress (UDF) and that only a government led by the BJP is capable of doing that.

This will definately give us the overall perspective of the great personalities in every part of our Country, instead of bandying a few family members since independence.

@@VVV-wx3ui pseudo or not, his analysis is more towards the centre, Unlike other channels that are pro or anti-Modi. Both are not good for democracy,

yep. While BJP has a non challenged strong hold on hindu votes , the rest of the opposition keeps fighting among themselves for rest votes . This is what makes BJP win
Who had thought of names like Chotu Ram, Rani Gaindalu, Raja Suhaildev, and many more. Atleast names of these personalities has gone into the mainstream now. BJP is now increasing its core votes from Hinduism to now more cultural identities and therefore is becoming more expansive and well established.

*Fun Fact* : Bankim Chandra Chattopadhyay was the author of the book “Anandamath”, from which the song “Vande Mataram” has been adopted. That book talked about a band of rebels who fought an armed revolution to establish a nation based on *Hindu Nationalism* .
That book served as an inspiration for thousands of Bengali youths to take up arms for freedom struggle.
Maybe that’s why BJP is very keen to adopt Bankim Chandra Chattopadhyay while TMC always maintain a respectable distance from him.
It's not just Hindutva, Hindus were concerned seeing Congress opening doing their minority appeasement politics
Here're some numbers.
*Phases in W.Bengal Election*:-
2021: 8
2016: 7
2011: 6
*Phases in Tamil Nadu Election*:-
2021: 1
2016: 1
2011: 1
Why are they acting like this is some totally unseen and crazy different plan?
Feels like a pre-loss excuse to me!
So what's wrong to adopting cluture of that group, it isn't called a nationalist thought to take all with them ? Rather than dived and ruled on based of region,caste,or something you name it.
Kind of sad to see Mr. Sekhar not remembering the name of the writter of Vande Mataram correctly.
@@PS-ej2xn ohh that's why every sanghis are in the comments section everyday. He knows his audience is mostly of right wing....and he plays to the gallery and for the gvt.
He would parrot everything what bjp says.
Correction: Vande mataram was written by Bankim Chandra Chatterjee
Chatterjee and Chatopadhya are interchangeable sir names ... Same as Banerjee with Bandopadhya
Oh thanks! I learned something today!

BJP has real hardworking, smart set of people who think above their family's interests and control. It is foolish to expect a perfect party. BJP is better than everyone else for the country.
I'm not a admirer of Congress, but Kamraj was a great leader and great nationalist. There has been no national leader of his stature from TN since Kamraj
this is one of the most fascinating cut the clutter that i have heard. wonderful shekarji.
Old Congress had lot of Nationalists with Hindu thinking. But today Congress it is sin to be a Nationalist or proud Hindu. Today Congress will call Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi's Congress as communal if he alive.
He is trying his best to defend but reality is something else
This is definitely one of the best CTC of this year. So much research and hard work must have gone to prove his points. This is the reason I pay and watch CTC.
Also, I would like to add one more point, it's just not the cultural Icons from each region, Modiji also calls out and applauds all the common person from different states for their bravery, innovations etc in his famous 'Mann ki baat' show. And whenever I watch that show I see a man telling whole world about India and it's amazing & skillful people, there's just no political angle to it. It's very informative and inspiring to watch. Thank you Modiji for making me aware and proud of my own country.

BJP is doing this because Mamata Banerjee, atleast in rural Bengal has been successful in convincing people that this as a Bengali vs NonBengali election. She has run a “Bengal ki Beti” campaign. This is why BJP has to do this. You mentioned Tamil Nadu. There also the local parties have successfully kept out BJP by
painting them as outsiders. BJP doesn’t use this strategy in other states as much.
It's so refreshing that you are not doing poll prediction. Analysis is so important in today's day and age when there's too much information.
Congress does not encourage their living promising youth leaders & lo BJP is highlighting dead Congress Icons !!!

Great personality doesn't belong to a party only they belong to India🇮🇳
Mr Gupta in all expansive talk seems to ignore the fact that in this all India exercise of digging out Indian heroes of the past are being truly inclusive, and challenging The Family centrisism of the dying Congress.
Also in his run around of accounts Mr Gupta makes a factual error by slight of hand - BJP did not rope Mr E Sreedharan. It was Mr E Sreedharan on his own volition opted to join the BJP. One of the key reasons that Mr Sreedharan offered was that he wanted to save Kerala from the prolonged misrule of both the Communists (LDF) and the Congress (UDF) and that only a government led by the BJP is capable of doing that.
Modi-Shah type of Cultural Nationalism required for India. Diversity in its True sense cannot be better handled by anyone else but these Nationalists. They manifest the 'Bharat to the World'👍
One of the best CTC on BJP's politics n strategy
After scrubbing through a lot of media organisations I can rightly say the level of research and more or less unbiased or libertarian view that Mr. Gupta has is impeccable. Really love your segment “Cut the Clutter”.

@ShekharGupta Please shift your uncut series to a new RUclips channel as that video series is dragging @ThePrint 's RUclips analytics because you feature political leaders which gets a lot of dislikes, you might not care about like/dislike ratio but RUclips sure does.
I was going through your analytics and it became apparent that your uncut series has a lot of dislikes.
BJP really works from ground up and builds its politics from ground up, rather than the top down approach of all other political outfits in the country. That is why they are winning, till others don't start doing the same, BJP is going to keep winning.
Waiting for BJP to claim Abraham Lincoln, because there are claims that he mentioned Maharana Pratap.

Actually you are right bjp as a right wing party also need to claim on Margaret Thatcher and Ronald reagen free market policies and also should apply them in India .PM MODI currently talk about privatization in their speech

@World of ticktalkers You need not be sorry Sir, but Shekhar Ji is a journalist, he supposed not to comment like that, as he is not from West Bengal, and don't know how respected still is Dr. Bidhan Chandra Roy in our state.
Nehru/Ghandhi family oppressed other top leaders in the party. What is wrong if BJP uses Kamaraj and other leaders.
