And today the West lectures India on Democracy & Human rights be it in Ukraine conflict or many other issues...while in the past they supported many Dictators to achieve their interests...be it Pakistan, China or Arab nation.
@@RSLight-fz6ek first of all get the fact right, poverty and crime during present government has reduce drastically...don't understand what kind of news u r following to cover ur head with garbage....as far as employment is concern, yes because of covid, it has created lot of unemplyment but India is doing fair if u compare to other major economy...so please don't speak bullshit and show ur stupidity here.
Poverty, crime , unemployment ye sab congress k hi den hai, 75 salo se kya g*nd marwa rhe the ,sirf apne parivar ,Gandhi ,Gandhi kr rhe the bc😡
@RSLight Are you braindead? Blaming brits is totally justified because they still haven't accepted their fault officially, while Indians now have the luxury of blaming politicians for the issues in India and, even politicians along with people are at least working on solving these issues, but same cannot be said about the brits.
@RSLight tryin to pass in same rusted thoughts and put the blame back on us . We have and will continue to grow in every sphere whole ur nations are still trying to short circuit our progress with ur stooges so get ur facts right .
@RSLight kinda nice to preach wisdom when you are at the receiving end of history, this reminds me of a saying you must be familiar with “white mans burden”.
"A day without a Western Hypocrisy is a day wasted".
@@RSLight-fz6ekare you stupid….despite all the shit west has pulled on India without any sign of regret, India is doing great…. Do u know what’s the population of India …. Still the people are able to eat survive… the inflation didn’t hit in India thanks to our politicians looking out for us…. Well I can’t say the same for west
@RSLight spoken like a true Brexiter. Of course, deflecting this way will prevent your conscience ever having to do any work. Besides, in a few years, UK will anyway be an economy at the bottom of the heap.
@@RSLight-fz6ek apologise for you sin in colonies and we will forgive you. Because forgiving is good ,forget is not.
Actually an American university has conducted studies to come up with an amount in 2020 that UK owes to India which was around 45 trillion American dollars taking inflation into consideration that amount has probably reached to 47 trillions USD by now.
What utter rubbish you are talking no American university has said that 🙄 🤣🤣🤣🤣👍
@@stevenwheeler5324 Dude seems to be living in a utterly ambiguous utopia.
The 'drain' increased by almost $20 trillion in just 4 years as calculated by the Marxist economist Utsa Patnaik. She estimated $45 trillion up to 2016 and then $64.82 trillion up to 2020 both at a 5% compound interest rate. Also 5% is more than twice the average annual rate of inflation of the GB £ from 1765 to 2023
@@andrewwilliams3137 Where it (the paper of Utsa Pattanaik) was published?
@@DipakBose-bq1vv The $45 trillion is made up almost entirely of interest rates.
The British government doesn't even apologize over Jallianwallah Bagh.
If royalty in Britain gave away all their ill-gotten wealth including what is in the British museum they won't have clothes to wear.
Why should James Cameroon apologize.
It is queen or king who should apologize
I was born in Amritsar and visited the memorial many times. It brings tears to my eyes when think about the brutality of the British power.
They did, lately
@@RSLight-fz6ek India is rising and will continue to rise despite the death and destruction that the british christians brought to the Indian sub-continent. They have white washed their crimes in India, we CAN and WILL continue to bring these facts up for as long as we like. In the mean time Bharat will continue to rise economically :)
@@RSLight-fz6ek, are you British or their slave?
Very nice reaction!
Appreciate you and the way you understood the context and the pain that we have suffered during the colonial era.
The way you summarised and understood is very touchy!
God bless you!
@RSLight bol?
@RSLight Tu apna Gyan apne paas rakh! I didn't ask you for your view lol. Individual opinions are subjected to assumptions based on individuals education level and the way they see fact and evidence.
We all are educated and know how to analyse details, historical facts and evidence and understand issues.
Also, we are not interested in the way you and people like you try to see fact and evidence and try to eat half cook propaganda shi*t lol.🔥
Jai Hind 🇮🇳
@@RSLight-fz6ekyou are copying and pasting the same comment. Have you done anything about it or just a keyboard warrior?
@@RSLight-fz6ek so is he. Stating facts on here does not change anything. Do something about it.
@@RSLight-fz6ek agree with you. The focus should be on what is possible and what is achievable, not what happened 300 years ago and how bad it was. Grow up man!
Indians are obsessed with the past, whether it be the 'great' achievements of ancestors, such as space flight (Pushpak Viman), plastic surgery (Ganesh), IVF (100 births - Kauravas), or what the British or Mughal did in the past.
China gained freedom around the same time as India and now is challenging the US on all fronts, but Indians are just happy Pakistan is in the doldrums.
Individual Indians are successful (CEOs, authors, scientists, artists etc.), but India as a whole is progressing very slowly, because of this mentality.
Truth is , it's like a guest comes 4 dinner n decides to stay indefinitely by throwing the hosts out
Children and future generations of " The Great Britain " will not live proudly for their own British History..,
India, Africa n many more countries may or may not forgive Britain in Future but there's one is certain that they will not Forget.
THE HISTORY WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER AND WILL NOT FIRGIVE.
And people call us third world. Just give it time people..... We will reclaim our place in history
her reactions show that how little british people know about their history surely they were taught that how great was british empire and how they help the people of the world get civilized, well organized and put them on the right path of Christianity.
I wonder if british did not taught how was a british representative visited jaliawala bagh to apologize in 70's.
Indian here, really nice reaction. This video needs to be watched by both Brits and Indians.
I think Alex looks a lot like Alisha Chinoy, the famous Hindi pop singer from the 90s.
Hi alex Mr.THAROOR didnt cover the marine industry in india which has been destroyed by BRITONS . Indian shipping industry was one the best shipping industry in the world .India used to have world largest ships in the world . The ships build by britons used to come to repair every 3-4 years but the ships build by India used to come to repair 40 years. Britons deliberately imposed the restrictions on the ships coming to europe even they tried to destroy ships coming from india. They raped, converted,killed indians. GOD BLESS THEM..
Yes all the Indian ships were burnt and their designs destroyed
Can you point me to some sources? Seems highly unlikely given how weak we were in naval warfare
One more

@@roshanjohnson7467 Johnson We were never weak. its how we treat guest. makes it easy for them to back stab. and betray us.
We were to nice as people. Muslims and christians has taken advantage of that.
❤️🙇 you're the good human being 🙏
It's funny we Sri Lanka also colonised by British but we don't have this kind of anger towards British colonizers.
I must appreciate the outstanding command over the English language Shashi Tharoor has. Whatever be his other merits or demerits, he is a great orator, no doubt.
Totally agree with you when you said colonization has never been pretty, that's an ugly fact. Beside if even i was the brightest orator in the world, i definitely will think thrice before getting on with Dr. Tharoor. He is just a class apart.
I am salute Mr Shashi Tharoor sir this is the reality of Britain and Britain government East India Company I am from West Bengal many people die battle Britain all money of Indian money Nitin all golden Indian gold rate in all gold diamonds and Indian diamonds😅😅😅😅
Personally I don't care about a pity sorry or a force emotional apology. All we need is reparation in thr the form of monetary value. Britain's apology wouldn't bring back the old happy days but that monetary value would assist new India in a far great manner.
Colonialism is not something that happened in the past, it is still happening even now. What France is doing in Africa is extremely immoral. They are collecting tax worth 500 billion dollars from their former colonies. They are still exploiting their resources like uranium and gold paying well below the market price in Niger.
That 20 million pounds payment ended only in 2015
George Orwell reports that Britishers in India would send their unsuspecting illiterate servants to the local police station with a note written in English to the station commander "please give the bearer forty lashes."
Lets make a correction- looters not conquerers ! That’s way you don’t feel unnecessarily superior
@RSLight hi bot
So other empires weren't looters????😂
BE REST ASSURED WEST WILL PAY DONT WORRY. TIME IS NEAR BY
Attecking is ez but says some words is hard 😂😂
MR. BBC, where are you? Why don't you make a full-length documentary on your Head-looter aka the Royal Family of Britain?
Time is over for sorry
Now they definitely pay for it
Ignorance always exists. What matters is if one is willing to resist the temptation to hate and fight (which many don't) or if there is a genuine concern for progress that could help countless innocent sentient beings.
@@MrPeaceGuy54i don't understand bro please speak clearly
@@Santanibalak1 I am sorry, friend. What I meant was that while we should always do the right thing and expect others to do the same, I don't think that revenge or the idea that people who have nothing to do with the actions of those who came before them should be made to "pay". Sometimes, we have to rise above a harmful cycle instead of accidentally becoming a part of it. There is a reason why Swami Vivekananda believed in Advaitic pluralism and the ultimate unity of being (which is also a view that is held by Ramanujacharya's Vishishtadvaita).
@@MrPeaceGuy54 Sorry bro, but I don't agree with you. Because of which more than 100 million people died only in India and uncountable in the world, I cannot forgive those robbers. Vivekananda ji has said right but I give more importance to Gita. Lord Shri Krishna says in the Gita that fighting only for one's own revenge is bad, but war must be fought for the welfare of the world. What do you think British is only in UK no brother in Bretton Woods Agreement only head office of Britishers is from London to Washington, D.C. was shifted.His empire is still the same
@@Santanibalak1 I am not denying that horrors were committed during that period, but it is equally true that the Empire as it once was does not exist. The Bretton Woods agreement created an international currency exchange system that only lasted until the 1970s. There is a difference of degrees between the West trying to maintain its supremacy and the ouright subjugation that existed before. Of course, neither is good, but we cannot pretend as if everything is the exact same. I think that we should not forget, but we should forgive. The Gita is about many things. For example:
'In the Bhagavad-gita (16.3), Lord Krishna declares forgiveness to be a godly quality foundational for liberation and is contrasted with the anger and harshness that characterize the ungodly who stay in bondage.
In the Srimad Bhagavatam (9.15.40), the sage Jamadagni glorifies forgiveness: “The duty of a transcendentalist is to culture the quality of forgiveness, which is illuminating like the sun. The Supreme Person, Hari, is pleased with those who are forgiving.”'
-Gokulhouse
In the Gita, Lord Krishna is willing to let the Pandavas live with only five villages even though they could have conquered the world. The Pandavas could have argued that the final limit was at least a few states, but Lord Krishna went much further than that. Lord Rama sent Lakshman ji to learn valuable lessons from Ravana even though he could have simply left. The basic principle remains the same-one should strive to do good even when others don't always agree with us. We should also remember that the things Lord Krishna and Lord Rama did were during a period in which wars were common. For their time, their actions were unthinkable. Since we live in a different environment, we have to focus more on the Atman of the principle, which, I think, will lead us to a position that is both firm but also accepting and compassionate. In particular, we have to remember that the part does not always represent the whole.
Hypocrisy of the west especially the British isn't that they don't acknowledge the past but they down right chose to ignore it even after knowing all the atrocities thier ancestors did .
We've been out of India since 1947 what's been holding them back since?
Can this Sadhguru's video be done by you,

Its about the save soil, An early response will be highly appreciated. Thank You. We hope to see the upload soon. With appreciation...................
He didn't even mentioned the jallianwala bagh massacre, if you just research a bit then you'll understand....
It done by sikh soldiers on white master order to get their pay on time, same fought against in 1857 revolts on British side, so don't complain
17:29 sure no money is gonna be enough obviously, I don’t want that be used as the excuse to not pay. Let them start paying in small amounts after acknowledging their the debt, and let them pay for 300yrs in small sums. But they have to pay. There’s no making adjustments with that. We been generous, polite and Humble way too much to anyone who comes to our country.
What ?????
No, that's just stupid.
British implemented Final Solution on India, just like Hitler implemented Final Solution on Jews.
And that is only white money, which is told the East India company , real amount is much more.
He even didnt mention violence like jaliyawalabagh were many Indian families were brutally shot at by a british officer and his force continuosly for participating in peaceful rally or hanging people in full public view or feeding dogs live men to teach people lessen.Looting our heritage is anyways known to whole world.
What happened in Jalian wala baugh was not the work of Britisher alone, the Muslim leag
Was equally responsibility for the deaths.
The best reaction I've seen so far
Yes my modiji jai Modiji 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳👍👍👍🌹🌹🌹👏👏👏💯
Mam just a acknowledgements and the kohinoor back. That's all

Those sneaky bastards made the original video private so we can't watch it!
Yes , only Culture speaks, with tailor made shamelessly cultured people, and still have the audacity to display all the loots in the Museum.
1 2 3 indians are coming 😅
Great to see no comments from her😅
the british created india and pak from BHARAT...
I want my money back.
no worries india is back were it was in 18 century bigger economy then uk
Hey Alex : A hillarious clip from a Hindi Movie worth watching ....

He must be the next Prime Minister of India!!!!
He's a great speaker ... speaker doesn't becomes a leader
Now what Uk is begging INDIA for a FTA deal and now world says that its only INDIA that can help Uk tackling recession now Uk is pleasing INDIA for help and to be on their side its just ironic time changes, Table has turned.🇮🇳🇮🇳
Now india crossed UK in terms of nominal GDP 👍🏻 there is no comparison in terms of space tech and missions. UK never send a single satellite from their own land.
Search online for British Space Programme. "The British satellite Prospero was launched from South Australia, on a Black Arrow rocket, making Britain the sixth nation to place a satellite into orbit using a domestically developed carrier rocket".
ya ya , today's so called development of the UK was once financed by india. before feeling proud about your country , remember that your country turned from rags to riches using our resources.@@andrewwilliams3137
Where are aboriginal of Australia ??
Whatever anyone says or comments on video but in real time Brits don't even know their bloody history. Where ever European went did massacre not only in India or Africa also in USA native tribes, Australia.
This Brits will come and talk about moral compass everything but never pressurize their government for that apology, cause Government is formed by people. 😂
I will be happy if they just return the stuff which is in their museum and on the heads of their kings and queens.
Don't say museum. Say British government chor bazar.
Leave aside reparations, isn't Britain ashamed of stock piling its museums with all the Indian artifacts and Indians actually have to pay an entry fee to see the stuff which actually belongs to them, undoubtedly brits are the most shameless in that matter.
The British Museum and other national institutions are prevented from returning items by the British Museum Act 1963 and the Heritage Act 1983.. The British government’s position is that institutions should “retain and explain” any contested artefacts'.

and what about Japan and the atom bombs we dropped atomic bombs on their civilians and the future reparations we will be paying to Russia
What about our looted proepty decorated in their museums.And our KOHINOOR decorated in a jewel in the crown of British Royal family????
They took away prince Dilip Singh from Punjab and gave him to British family so that he could never meet his mother and know that he was prince of Punjab.
Shame on British Colonialism
On April 17th 2016 India’s solicitor-general Ranjit Kuma told the Indian Supreme Court that in the opinion of the Indian government, the Kohinoor diamond had not been forcibly taken but was a gift from the successors of Maharaja Ranjit Singh to East India Company in 1849 as compensation for helping them in the Sikh wars.

Westerners will get their karma
We do not want money. We want the British to teach the real history of their Empire. The contribution of Bengal in industrial revolution, the contribution of India in the development of the UK and the British role in man-made famines, poverty creation and how India declined from one of the most prosperous countries to one of the poorest during the British rule and how the British ruined India by dividing it in 1947 when it departed without taking any responsibility for the human beings. However, it is far cry. I have lived in Britain for many years for my education and some years work experience after completing my education. They never accept their defects or any blames, but they always have a defensive attitude.
Adam Smith, John Stuart Mill, Bentham are the examples of the British attitude.
Ma'am do you have a daughter of age around 20-25 ... I'd love to cherish her if she's taking after you a bit❤❤❤❤
I don’t like uk karma
As if now we are least bothered about a small country with a dying economy and internal islamic issues. Bharat which west called India every type of people from the world tried to invade however we still stand strong and rubbing shoulders.
You're standing tall because of British empire

Fake reaction
Over reactive
Advise - be geniune
After all this British not apologize on JALIAWALA BAG SHOOT OUT.
British Parliament awarded Dyer 26000 pounds in 1920,who killed 1200 innocent in Jaliyanwala bagh.
Official death figures are 379 not 1200 at Amritsar. An official enquiry was set up at the time. Churchill campaigned to remove Dyer from the army. These kind of incidents are tragic but still happen in India such as the Sopore massacre in Kashmir on 6 January 1993 when 55 Kashmiri students were killed by Security forces who fired on a procession.
Its always shock me seeing anglo people not having a clue from his own history
+: I have the feeling that Shashi Tharoor does not want to be more directly, but between 1880 and 1920 the British Empire killed more than 100 million people in India.
If you are interested in knowing more about what British colonialism did to India, please watch the video 'Unmaking of India '. You will get to know the true colours of British colonialism more vividly.
45 trillion sterling.. that's the amount owed by Britain as of now.
The $45 trillion is almost entirely made of interest rates. The 'drain' increased by almost $20 trillion in just 4 years as calculated by the Marxist economist Utsa Patnaik. She estimated $45 trillion up to 2016 and then $64.82 trillion up to 2020.
Useless 😅
Search for "Shashi Tharoor in conversation with historian Zareer Masani" for the truth
When I listen to Shashi Tharoor I am reminded of my grandfather's story. A British soldier thrashed him mercilessly cos he dared to take some fruits from the cantonment/ barracks garden. He still had the lash marks on his back. This is was the general attitude of the British towards Indians. My grandpa remembers the club in the town had a board stating " Indians and dogs not allowed". A small sample of the British rule in India. If anyone tells me British rule was beneficial I wish I could show them my grandpa's wounds.
@@akankshapatwari4167 What happened to your grandfather seems sever to me but that type of punishment was quite common in Britain, I believe even today you can still get flogged on the Isle of Man (TT races). In Saudi he'd have lost a hand. You can find segregation based on ethnicity still today.
@@ganferatab6403 I can't stand people like Piers Morgan or people who support the colonial mentality. Have these people faced the effects of colonialism or atleast felt it second hand. Do read up about the Bengal famine. I read an article about how people would eat slugs and snails from potholes filled with muddy water or under damp logs. If you get a chance see Satyajit Ray's Ashani Sanket movie about the famine. I have even read the novel on which the movie was based. The characters might be fictional but the circumstances they faced were all factual and well researched.
@@akankshapatwari4167 Piers is still a media rat imo, as an ex-newspaper Editor he's marginally less morally reprehensible than an MP. Dr Z Masani is an internationally renowned historian, he has said a few things on the Bengal famine & I have read (listened) to a little more. I presume your angle would be similar to that of Shashi Tharoor?
@@ganferatab6403 Yes, I have read extensively about Bengal famine as I spent my childhood there. You can see Famine's influence on Bengali and Bangal ie Bangladesh's cuisine. They use every part of the vegetable. They have dishes made of potato peel, papaya peel even banana peel etc. They use flowers, seeds, stem, of certain plants etc.
The Moghals gave India only Islam while the British gave us lovely English language, Democracy, Railways, Courts, Freedom, Universities and any technology transfer has a cost hence they took our riches in return..🚩🇮🇳🇬🇧
I loved the British coming to India. They liberated us from the despotic Moghals who destroyed our religion and culture. The British never defiled our women nor desecrated our temples. India is today what it is due to British. Thank you 🚩🇮🇳🇬🇧
I suppose brits took pages from the Romans
Now they're facing an even worse problem. With Islam growing rapidly in the UK, there's no escape.
Britain I will never forgive and forget.
Thanks TO brittain i lost my roots.
I am a Indian born in South-Amerika i Don't know if i have still family in India. i can only see Video's of How great India is and read history what it use to be.
I truly miss my culture and people.
maybe one day i will find My way back to India.
