- Watch Palki Sharma, a prominent Indian journalist, deliver a compelling speech at the Oxford Union, arguing why Prime Minister Narendra Modi's India is on the right path. With references to John Kirby's statement from the White House and backed by statistics, Sharma explores three major developments: financial inclusion, internet and mobile penetration, and increasing airport traffic.
Contrasting the narrative of a "self-doubting India," Sharma paints a picture of a confident nation inspiring and leading the world. She describes India as a "soft-power giant" and a democracy that no longer tolerates terrorism or betrayal.
Sharma's arguments are supported by data, showcasing India's doubled per capita income since 2014, plummeting inflation, and record-high foreign direct investment and trade. She attributes this progress to political stability and a focus on connectivity under Modi's leadership.
Dispelling Western narratives, Sharma asserts that India is a consensus builder, not a troublemaker, and highlights its balanced approach in global affairs, including the Russia-Ukraine conflict and assistance to Sri Lanka.
In conclusion, Sharma asserts that India's path is about charting its own destiny, not conforming to Western standards. She challenges portrayals of India as a poor democracy, emphasizing the respect for the Supreme Court and the people's mandate by the Union government.

There is no need for the debate on India's growth and prosperity in terms of every aspects, the west and the whole world knows India's progress , we are the vishwa guru .
In the digital coliseum of TH-cam, a recent Oxford Union debate has become a rallying cry for a brand of manufactured outrage gripping Indian journalism. While clarifications regarding the debate's timing and format have been offered (it occurred a year ago, speakers were assigned positions beforehand), a one-sided narrative, fueled by podcasts like "Beer Biceps," (not that Ranveer is to blame) has taken root in the public consciousness. This tendency towards a "wholistic consumption of knowledge," as it's deceptively termed, betrays a worrying decline in intellectual curiosity within the Indian public sphere. This analysis dissects this manufactured patriotism and the shallow reception of the debate.
Firstly, the very title of the debate - a loaded question if ever there was one - demands an opinion on the ruler, deified to a near-godlike status, rather than the concept of the state itself. Labelling those who oppose the motion on a global platform as traitors undermines the very essence of debate. A coin requires two sides, and to demonize those assigned the opposing view by chance is intellectually bankrupt.
The Oxford Union has a history of hosting debates on taboo subjects - religion, God's existence - that would be unthinkable in a nation supposedly on the "pioneering" path. Here's the stark reality: prime-time news in India routinely silences dissent on live television, a blatant assault on the fourth pillar of democracy. Given this stifling environment, it's unsurprising that a platform offering a semblance of openness attracts dissenting voices. To equate dissent with maligning the nation is a convenient deflection from the crux of the matter - the nation is an entity larger than any individual, and the debate's subject is precisely that individual. This strategy of "putting the West in its place" is as shallow as it is transparent. As long as such tactics garner applause, blind patriotism can be conveniently claimed, while dissenters are branded "anti-national."
There's no moral courage in blind loyalty. Self-proclaimed flag-wavers conveniently overlook the plight of university students languishing in jails under draconian laws designed to stifle dissent. While rulers sow the seeds of hatred and division, these "nationalists" become self-appointed brand ambassadors, peddling a distorted definition of patriotism. Comparing farmer and student protests to international riots reveals a shocking disregard for the democratic process. The average Indian citizen, grappling with daily struggles, is unlikely to be well-versed in worldly affairs. Yet, the mainstream media has successfully constructed a narrative that portrays our own farmers and students as "anti-national." Were this energy directed towards safeguarding our borders, perhaps territorial losses wouldn't be a concern. These journalists, exhibiting breathtaking hypocrisy, have the audacity to accuse others of "double standards."
The rise of technology has ushered in a sinister form of intellectual debasement. Critical thinking and reasoned analysis have been replaced by pre-formed opinions, fueled by ever-shrinking attention spans. In this "part of the world," as such journalists fail to mention, civilization seems to have regressed due to linguistic and religious
differences. Preconceived notions of who is a "patriot" or an "anti-national" dominate discourse, leaving no room for reasoned debate based on facts.
Blind praise for nationalism is as hollow as demonizing dissent. Such reductionism is intellectually bankrupt and a betrayal of education. Singling out the Oxford Union for its "White-West" demographic mirrors the current government's approach: dwelling on the past to deflect from present failings. A healthy democracy thrives on questioning, dissent, and a healthy scepticism towards authority. Had these journalists provided a platform for dissent within India, perhaps the need for an international forum wouldn't have arisen. Wielding power from their armchairs, these "nationalists" indulge in racialized "anti-West" rhetoric, promote a warped sense of patriotism, and selectively ignore dissent. This does not grant them the moral authority to dictate the terms of nuance in such debates. Operating within their protected bubble, they remain oblivious to the simmering pressure cooker of dissent building up in the nation. Equating dissent on TH-cam with a vibrant democracy is another dangerous reductionism. The rulers' ambitions extend far beyond securing votes; they seek to control minds. These journalists, with their obfuscation of facts, are unwitting accomplices.
Excellent presentation 👏

Jammu and Kashmir is divided
2023 March , 300+ churches burnt down in Manipur, India.
Modi : Mother of Democracy
(us congress speech)
CJI : Murder of Democracy
(Chandigarh Mayoral
election)
GDP, QR code , vaccines , aiding Sri Lanka etc ..... Yes , she is right about it , Modi govt had done certain good things we all know.
But, the people of this country are being threatened by the present Regime as Communal hatred had been spread throughout the Nation accompanied by lots of horrible violence, as a result many lost their lives.
Political opponents are being put to Jail/House Arrest on false allegations.
Democracy had been down to a rock bottom level , Judiciary is failed.
Young ladies were paraded naked and gangraped.
FIRST AND FOREMOST we want peace and then Development comes next.
(Readers can go to youtube , FB etc and find out the truth about our India)
Godi Media (Govt sponsored media wouldn't say anything bad about the regime. Eg : North Korean Media)
