I think you have a great point ,but the rothschilds complex(committee of 300) which is the banking arm of the jesuits controlling the church is the real root of the control.
The British marketed their opium as " longevity medicine" to the Chinese, got them addicted, and finally broke the massive trade imbalance thru export of opium to China.
by speak like him do you mean his english abilities? to me language doesnt really matter, we've got plenty of eloquent hindi speaking politicians in the country.
What a man! Totally unbiased towards religion but only for the Subcontinent. We need more people like him in India, Pakistan and Bangladesh. Cheers from Pakistan
Anyone who doesn't talk about communalism of Muslim League becomes your hero. Anyways, we in India read history without talking about religion much. In fact, Indian books do not even blame Muslims for Partition even though 95% Muslims voted for partition. Indian history books even remain silent on Islamic invaders destroying Hindu temples and Buddhist monasteries as a matter of religious intolerance emanating from Quran.
@@lovekanaujia345 Blaming the Muslim populace for the Partition would only make India a fool and you know it. Given what Modi has been doing, I have become to see the Partition as the right thing.
@@ajay262134 do you even know how was both the nations partitioned? What was the voting criteria, how many people voted for it. Do you know that? I know their country was made on the basis of religion only, but only upper class people voted for whether there should be partition or not. Now in 2023, India has rich people accounting to not even 1% of the population. What do you think, how many people were from high class at that time? Because only high class was eligible for the votings. People who own lands, paid all their taxes were eligible. At that time, what do you think, how many people owned land or could pay their taxes? And the person who commented, even if his family also voted at that time. Is it his fault? If he thinks differently, then we should appreciate him. Why fighting on this now? Why you are speaking the language of a politician? It was the politicians who divided us, the british and the pro sepratist politicians like Jinnah and Savarkar. Those were the people who divided us, not all of them (the people of pakistan). We civilians are always used as a pawn for their sick ideas to get more power. They used religion to divide us all at that time. If that didn't happen, our countries would be together or maybe we would be like EU. We would be the most powerful in the world, more than US, China and Russia. But we are still fighting. We are still used as a pawn by our politicians of both the countries. What happened after the Revolt of 1857, in which Hindus- Muslims and other minorities fought together against british and then after that we are now divided and shifting blames on each other and in the corner, all the politicians are laughing on us and getting more and more powerful. DON'T FIGHT WITH EACH OTHER. We were looted by british only because we fought with each other when the foreign invaders were on our gates.
@@lovekanaujia345 not 95%, it was around 16% . That was only the high class citizens. The rest 84% weren't eligible for the voting. And we all know, rich and poor have a lot of gap in every aspect of life. It is the same in every country.
Bro it hurts alot but its nature every thing that has risen eventually have to fall just like India Britain Rome time will not always be the same again our time will come soon
Watch Indian historian Zareer Masani Oxford speech about British Empire. Also watch Zareer Masani vs Shashi Tharoor debate on whether British Empire was good or bad.. Indian historians have accepted British rule was good for India. Shashi Tharoor is a politician.
@@alen833 I don't need to rely on some random historian. I'm from India and my own grandfather & earlier generations faced British atrocities. They looted us for no reason. And now they need Rishi Sunak/Indian origin person to bell them out of their miseries! 😄
@@falgunpatil2372 he is right indeed. And WTF this origin means. Hell logic. Even Bhagat Singh was hanged by a Indian Origin person, so what. BRITISHERS r the reason why we people today r indian. Else there were Kingdoma and their was no Nation. 😅
Hopefully the citizens of both countries know that once open a time , what we today we call Pakistan, Bangladesh and India was once Bharat!!! And today instead of working togather, these countries are enemies!!! The legacy of colonial GB is still working….
I'm a British born Indian and I felt deeply saddened and sickened. Once i started to learn about our history I felt I didn't belong to England or endorse their actions, past and present. All my cousins in India want to come to England or Canada or USA where as I want to go back to India and be rid of my britishness. I bought a one way ticket out of UK a year ago , currently I'm in Thailand but I plan to settle down in my motherland and start a family there. Thank you for this speech, very articulate. I felt your words in my heart through to my ancestors. X
Relax I'm Indian-American (fake name cuz reasons). The USA and India have a lot in common. We both hated the British back in the day. A lot of Americans share the same sentiment.
Good to hear you learned about the British rule. Many people in UK don't even know how horrible the colonial past was. We as Indians don't hate UK for the past, we love UK and the people. We want them acknowledge that the colonial rule was terrrible for India and other Commonwealth countries. And we don't want to hear them justifying the British rule, it is in no way justifiable. It's okay to feel bad but don't let it persist. That's history now. Good Luck! Welcome to India!
Really and you are proud of India’s caste system and untouchability. India has much evil in it’s name. Shame on you for supporting India which has books upon books saying only two castes deserve to be called human and only one deserves justice.
@@sirlordhenrymortimer6620 Careful with what you wish for. Post-brexit, your PM is actually looking forward to licking Indian asses so as to sustain Britain economically. Today, if all the Indians were to leave Britain, more than 100,000 people will lose jobs there (source: Grant Thornton UK) . Indian companies in Britain reportedly paid 650 million pounds to your government in taxes (Source: India meets Britain 2016: Tracking the UK’s top Indian companies, a report by CII). The truth is that much of today's Britain has been build on the blood, sweat and looted wealth of millions of people around the world that suffered horrendously under British colonialism. But they don't teach you a line of all this in schools. And after all this ignorant British public have the audacity of making grand claims of how Britain contributed to globalization through colonialism. Some balls you have, I have to give it to you.
As a (white) New Zealander who lives in the UK, I'm always shocked at how little Brits know about their colonial history. It's something so key to how the UK is what it is today - and how it got there. It absolutely should be taught more and the UK absolutely should apologise for the terrible things that were done to India.
What about Africa what about China very what about the native Indian what about the Australia abolition my friend this British Empire did a lot of bad to the hall of human society
Every time I listen to him trust me, it brings tears in my eyes thinking what foreigners particularly British did to our country and Asia, Africa respectively. 😌😭
What a dialogue by shashi taroor sir "the sun never set on the British empire, because even God couldn't trust the Englishmen in the dark" 😂😂😂😂full on swag, dialogue of the year
@@bazmc1153 No they talk about being careful as the government want them to have children in an ageing population.. Our Imams warn them that the rate of STD has tripled over two decades..
One of the best explanation on British atrocities and British legacy left in the region of South Asia . It was valuable to listen Shashi sir . Thanks for unbiased knowledge sir
I am of Indian and British decent. I am Canadian which puts me in the unique position of being from somewhere else. My cherished cousin Gerry, just passed away in his 90's. He had so many stories to tell from his first hand perspective of living in India during British rule......he was the first in my family to describe the British occupancy as tyranny. This video connects me with my roots.....I'm never sure what those roots are but listening to Shashi, I know they proudly include my Indian ancestry.
BRITISH CRIMES IN INDIA. ( my response to dr Shashi Tharoor). ---------------------------------------- 1-By conquering all of India, Britain ended an age-old rivalry, conflicts & bloodshed between Muslims, Hindus, Sikhs & Marathas, and united them into one nation and made them all feel proud to be Indian. 2-saved millions of lives of widows by abolishing the centuries-old practice of Sati. 3- saved millions of lives by abolishing the 1000s of years old practice of female infanticide in which the baby girls would be buried alive by parents to avoid paying dowry. 4- stopped Indians from butchering one another in the name of religion and caste. 5- promoted education and pulled Indians out of the dark ages and introduced them to the age of science and discovery. 6- built roads, bridges, schools and railway tracks and govt buildings like the parliament house and the president house. 7- introduced Indians to sewers, water closets and running water. Indians had been going to the jungle for the call of nature for 1000s of years. 8- gave the gift of the English language that is helping the subcontinent to learn science. 9- gave Indians a single currency. 10-protected the lives of minorities. 11- gave security and equal opportunity to all Indians. 12-stopped discrimination and racism based on religion or caste. 13- civilised Indians and taught them to respect law and order. 14- built army and police for the entire country. 15- introduced democracy in India and taught Indians the importance of secular and democratic values. 16- gave all Indians equal rights to education and jobs. 17- turned Indian society into a model society (watch the videos from that period). ------------------------------------------------------------------- Since they left, the entire subcontinent has turned into a hellhole for women and minorities. ----------------------------------------------------------------- I demand that the British government pay us reparations for the above-mentioned heinous crimes it committed against us, the poor Indians. -----------------------------------------------------------------
@@tejassoora5242 because most of the Indian are busy living their day to day life without seeing who's respecting their country or not. It's noticed we see news or something sometimes when some other countries praise India.
I did listen to his speech in Oxford Union on the topic of repartition. It was an eye opener. For the first time I realized about the harm the Brits caused to the people of the subcontinent.His book ‘Inglorious Empire’ is worth reading.
Indians prior to British rule caused enormous suffering to each other..as they do today..blaming the British is similar to Hitler blaming the Jews, but done under the flag of 'peace and philosophy '.... as an example the Air Pollution in the Ganges plains kills 2 million people per year and 1 million stillborns...Is their a Western Nation that would allow this? Or the infamous raping of goats? In Haryana alone eight (8) men gang raped a pregnant goat until it died. I have never heard of this in a Western Nation....
I'm from DHAKA & I'm feel peace in my mind for this person Who has revealed the truth in front of everyone, We know much more about what the British did to us. Everyone should know these truths. **And one thing, last year We were able to make that muslin cloth again🙂😎
I have never heard before any speech by Dr Shashi Tharoor, but this one was so excellent. It was very captivating as well as enlightening. Initially I thought 5 minutes would be maximum, but I listened to the entire video. Yes, I fully agreed to Dr Shashi's suggestion that colonial history be taught in schools. Very fluent and very historic in nature. Very much respect. 🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇
Because he is a charlatan....blaming the British for the problems of India is like Hitler blaming the Jews for the Germans Losi g WW1....this guy is a Charlatan par excellence...but still just another Indian scammer....
For 200 year rule on India we just want UK apologize to us , but only one country debating again and again but none of country come with India to force Britisher just becouse they don't want any problem in visa like indian
Yep you said right mate he delineated all facts which we need to know and taught lesson them that they should let universities to allow students to read colonial history.
one of the best line of the speech :: "you just missed the bus of industrial revolution well i am sorry but we missed the bus because you threw us under its wheels. ".
Industrial revolution was happening there when our india industries were forcefully shutdown / our people were forced to work for british in india! They took our business money and skills to artificially create industries in some years! Industries may come in some decades. But skills to invent magic of production, trade and business takes centuries from human existed. We have created and you have taken out! Industrial revolution there is nothing but what has taken from our indian hands! 😭
It is not just his vocabulary but his immense knowledge about everything he says. It is about his bold attitude and supreme command of emotions, facts and speech that make him stand out amongst the rest. To be able to speak like that and to have been invited there took something extraordinary. What we see is the final product. Imagine the kind of efforts, dedication, time and passion he put into to be THIS.
@@piyushjaiswal9283 In 1750, India had 23% of the world's GDP because it had 25% of the world's population. However, Britain was already a wealthy country even before it colonized India. If we look at the per-capita income of India and Britain in the 1750s as per Angus Maddison data, Britain's per-capita income was three times that of India, and India's per-capita income had been declining for a century before Britain won the Battle of Plassey. Comparing the total GDP of India and Britain in the 1750s to argue that India was richer than Britain is like saying that Uttar Pradesh is richer than Goa today. Later, the Industrial Revolution occurred in the Western world after the Scientific Revolution, with the invention of machines and technologies like the steam engine, and their wealth increased exponentially. Meanwhile, India's global share of GDP dropped to 4% in 1950. The same thing happened in China, which was not directly colonized. In fact, China's per-capita income was even lower than India's at the time of independence. During the 1750s, China's per-capita income was higher than India's. Therefore, if we say that Asian countries are poorer because of colonization, then what happened to countries like Nepal, Bhutan, Ethiopia, and Liberia, which were not colonized? It's worth noting that Nepal has a similar history and culture to India, yet it is the poorest country in Asia. The fact that Nepal was not colonized by the British undermines the argument that colonization is solely responsible for a country's level of poverty.
He is not the real thinker. He is only narrating the thought he acquired by reading books. The real thinkers are those who's books he has read. By all means appreciate Tharoor for talking about it, but always give credit to the thinkers who's narrative he is presenting. Dada bhai Naoroji is one of them. When I first heard Tharoor's Oxford speech, I recalled Dad bhai's drain theory. I had come across that term in Economics in my college days.
You can also read the same books and try talking like him at least for an hour Bhavin Ji...there is grace in acknowledging somebody's abilities...Everybody acquires wisdom by reading books from kindergarten....did you acquire it any other way?
Can't agree less, and I wonder why Dr Tharoor is not brought to the fore and entrusted with the highest designation and responsibility in governance and what a delight that would be, to have him lead.
Hi, I really like listening to the thoughts of Mr. S. Tharoor. One of my great grandfather was a freedom fighter. He died at Jail in Lahore, after a hunger strike for 63 days in 1929. He was only 24 years old then. His name may be forgotten in today's world...but in my heart I know, that he showed the world that Indians wouldn't be dominated. What British did in India is still unpardonable. Money can't compensate that. What Mr. Tharoor said in laughter is quite serious in nature.
Pl name your great grand father. Why I am asking this question is My understanding is that Jatin das sacrificed his life on 63 rd day of fasting My curacity is did you belong to Jatindranath Das lineage. Your reply will be much appreciated
@@mukundank4458 Yes, his name is Jatin Das. I am not his direct descendant. He born at his mother's house at Hatibagan, Calcutta and was raised there until he was 8. His mother's house is my maternal uncle's house which is above 350 years old building.
Bijay Khaitan I see Dr. Tharoor as Prime Minister of India in the future. One of his speeches in none other than Oxford University was so accurate I bet they never expected to get such a barrage of facts and serves them right too. In social media there are many Indians who are very proud of his brilliance including me. Gentlemen who have worked so hard to be well educated and lead their people are hard to find. God Bless Doctor Tharoor.
Thank God he is not we don't require such a guy. You are carried away by his excellent articulation skill and his English. He is otherwise a sold out to Nehru Sonia family unless he comes out of their shadow he cannot be counted. His silence and subsequent objection to an inquiry to his wife's death is also an enigma.
@@dharamewada6922 A man is innocent until proven guilty. It is quite possible that Shashi Taroor's wife did commit suicide because she was told she had Lupus which is not curable. I admire Mr. Taroor and I hope some day he does become Prime Minister he has all the makings for a successful Prime Minister. The fact that he speaks well is an added bonus. Get with the times!!

Great respect from a Chinese. Both India and China, along with other non-western countries greatly suffered from Colonialism. The conflict between India and China or other neighboring countries is also rooted in the mess left by the British. Hope the conflict can be peacefully resolved in our generation and the legacy from Colonialism will no longer haunt us 🙏 🙏 🙏
@@AvanRoyOfficial that's true. The current conflict is unfortunate. Both countries are great civilizations and I think there should be a smarter resolution

This man is just more than a genius soul. I always fall in love with his narration, with his humorous way of dialogue delivery, his influential and powerful words along with symbolic expressions, his authentic knowledge and grip on history and more than that, being so courageous standing amongst them and showing the true colors of their ancestors, is something which makes him totally a different personality and equally makes u love & respect him. Last but not the least, his rhythm, fluency and continuity of connecting it next to next, are all just exceptional and verily make him second to none. Wish there would be more sensible people aroud. In plan to read few of his books soon... Love and respect from Pakistan🇵🇰
@AOD yeah, i dont understand why congress just make him their leader, i think he would have crashed the elections and would have bring a lot of reforms to india
I felt so betrayed by the British curriculum, teaching me lies about my motherland. The imperialism continues as the British schools are still teaching the same lies. Speaking with family and hearing from the respected Mr. Tharoor, I have been able to get a more accurate picture of what really happened.
@@KiranKiran-ni6sl🤣🤣🤣 they ll never give it back.. they made our Raja Maharaja common man, took away their thrown. but they still have The Queen Elizabeth😝😝😝 And royal family.. rest in India ,u know what is going on.. they are now all politicians.
Even the Kohinoor diamont fitted on the crown of your queen was looted from India. If u start paying back what you have looted from us in monetary terms...the entire United Kingdom would go bankrupt.
I could not go past 20 minutes of this video, because it is very painful as an Indian to know the reality of what happened during British rule in my motherland.
Well, it's 2023, and India - united - is stronger than ever before, under impeccable leadership, and having overtaken the UK in global GDP rankings. There are at times dark chapters in history, but the people overcome it to emerge more victorious and glorious than ever. Jai Hind! I salute my people and my Indian ancestry ... for a more successful and brighter future to come!

It’s shocking that schools don’t teach British colonial history - it’s why England and the UK had Brexit and is now a third world state. A failed state. Atonement.
Beautifully articulated Dr. Tharoor. "Sun never sets in British empire because even god doesn't trust an English man in the dark". Respects and admirations for you from Pakistan Mr. Tharoor.
Some people are asset to nation.Having such a clearity of thoughts.Create great impact and influence on the August platform . So spontaneous in his expression.Great.

So true.... I am a teacher and have been teaching internationally for a long time. I can say the Indian mind is exceptional. They would have been better without Britain's intervention. I have students from the UK and have discovered from teaching them that they are operating from a mindset of privilege. You can see it even in their school curriculum - where students are not even expected to work as hard, their excuse is there needs to be school / life balance. And I realize this is largely because after school they already know they will most likely land the better jobs, them being British seems to be enough to get all the best opportunities even with very little effort. Most of my students studying in British schools do not show the same resilience or intellectual ability in comparison for example to my students going to an Indian or Asian or American school. The kids want to do very little things but since their parents have the better paying jobs, their privilege to travel, access to expensive things (ipads etc), expensive social activities etc help them improve their mediocre abilities. This needs to change. We are in a different time. I really don't even understand why wealthy Indians prefer British schools, to train and act like Brits. India doesn't need to do that. Based on population alone, India can survive on its own. They are on their own a big economy. After teaching so many Indian students, I really stated to love their culture and just how great they ara as human beings. I am not Indian by the way.

Ignore these two, one is probably not an Indian, and the other doesn’t even live in India and didn’t even study in India even tho he judge Indian educational levels.
As a Indian I think British Raj contributed lot's in the development of INDIA into a single state ,like railways , education system, HealthSystem and many more
I live in Belgium and I had seen in Yper the name of Indian soldiers on the walls like India Gate. Even still Belgium govenment invites grade childern of these soldiers on the day of Armistise. A stute of mahatha Gandhi was here in Brussels in a Park.
@@arshturna2441 Not "your" money. Nobody owns you anything. As Shashi Tharoor said the reparations can't be valued in money as it was more in value than money can buy.
I am dumbfounded of the questions that followed after this great speech, thats the best we can do on actually try to find other important events or subjects that someone might be curious about & ask this very knowledgeable person on this topic?
I feel proud that may be the audience aren't enjoying his jokes because they are ashamed of the truth of their history.... Love this man's speeches. He has taught them about their history more than their books can👍👍

@@thetirelesscrusader4745 1)Right. England is that "great" country that introduced the world to democracy but is ruled by monarchs itself. The hypocrisy!😂 2) I recommend you to read about the Indus Valley Civilization in detail. It was one of the earliest civilizations in the world and had immaculately planned cities, with covered drainage and well maintained sewage system. So Indians were not unaware of these knowledge. 3) The whole world is turning to Ayurveda and Yoga. Were those written in English? I don't think so. Because they weren't! They were written in Sanskrit. So no. English is not necessary to learn science!🙄 The countries where people don't speak English also have medical facilities. 4) The Britishers had no equality and no regard for the religion of the Indians. Please read about the cause of rebellion by Bhagat Singh. 5) The Hindu King, Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj had already started building a strong navy in 1670s. So I don't know what knowledge of Navy or Army you're talking about. So basically, you are still unaware of many aspects of the history. Also, all of these do not, can not, and can never nullify the fact that the Britishers murdered, tortured, and looted half of the countries in the world and still feel no remorse or guilt for that. If massacring hundreds of unarmed women, men, old people and children in a village fair doesn't count as a heinous act for you, then sorry, but you need to seek some help. URGENTLY. And also, get your facts straight before commenting on how many countries suffered under the cruelty of the Britishers.
They're not really showing the audience and it's just his mike - you're making a weird assumption. Also, whilst witty and amusing, they're not exactly knee-slappers

My ancestors are from Bangladesh and I had been told so many times regarding British brutality, tortures, murders and the atrocities that had happened in Bangladesh, then India. Some of my Grandparents told that so many of their Parents fingers had cut off as they were involved in Textile business producing Maslin, Fine silk, Exclusive wools and Design clothes. They were being even forced to stop seedings rice or wheat instead of beaten to planting indigo or dahlia plants for clothes dye in order to boosting Britain's cotton industry. And, very sadly lots of my GRANDPARENT'S RELATIVES had died on the GREAT BENGAL FAMINE.... How would you forget all those pains, sad memories????????
Thats true fam dhakai muslin was incomparable to any fabric ever created. It could hideously be folded inside any space as large as a matchbox. My ancestors 200 years ago lived near sandwip, chittagong and my father told me they later moved out of that area for getting less or no prices for their salts. How I wish our ancestors were stronger and united and could defend this country like they should have had. I have no grudge against the British. They were opportunists and took the benefit of our weakness.
@@imdeep5839 hahaha I had hindu best friends ever since I was a kid and I still have plenty of Hindu friends. I don't know from which source you get these information but hindus are treated very well in Bangladesh. They hold high govt official ranks and have a overwhelming majority in the police force. You are invited in Bangladesh to see it for yourself.
Your Ancestors were Indians (Bengalis), not Bangladeshi's dude. This is what people of Pakistan and Bangladesh do not appreciate as they were brainwashed to forget who they were.

Anyone who doesn't talk about communalism of Muslim League becomes your hero.
Anyways, we in India read history without talking about religion much. In fact, Indian books do not even blame Muslims for Partition even though 95% Muslims voted for partition.
Indian history books even remain silent on Islamic invaders destroying Hindu temples and Buddhist monasteries as a matter of religious intolerance emanating from Quran.
Strange to hear such words from a citizen living in a country made on the basis of just Religion.
@@lovekanaujia345
Blaming the Muslim populace for the Partition would only make India a fool and you know it. Given what Modi has been doing, I have become to see the Partition as the right thing.
@@ajay262134 do you even know how was both the nations partitioned? What was the voting criteria, how many people voted for it. Do you know that?
I know their country was made on the basis of religion only, but only upper class people voted for whether there should be partition or not. Now in 2023, India has rich people accounting to not even 1% of the population. What do you think, how many people were from high class at that time? Because only high class was eligible for the votings. People who own lands, paid all their taxes were eligible. At that time, what do you think, how many people owned land or could pay their taxes?
And the person who commented, even if his family also voted at that time. Is it his fault? If he thinks differently, then we should appreciate him. Why fighting on this now?
Why you are speaking the language of a politician? It was the politicians who divided us, the british and the pro sepratist politicians like Jinnah and Savarkar. Those were the people who divided us, not all of them (the people of pakistan).
We civilians are always used as a pawn for their sick ideas to get more power.
They used religion to divide us all at that time. If that didn't happen, our countries would be together or maybe we would be like EU. We would be the most powerful in the world, more than US, China and Russia. But we are still fighting. We are still used as a pawn by our politicians of both the countries.
What happened after the Revolt of 1857, in which Hindus- Muslims and other minorities fought together against british and then after that we are now divided and shifting blames on each other and in the corner, all the politicians are laughing on us and getting more and more powerful.
DON'T FIGHT WITH EACH OTHER.
We were looted by british only because we fought with each other when the foreign invaders were on our gates.
@@lovekanaujia345 not 95%, it was around 16% . That was only the high class citizens. The rest 84% weren't eligible for the voting. And we all know, rich and poor have a lot of gap in every aspect of life. It is the same in every country.

I'm a British born Indian and I felt deeply saddened and sickened. Once i started to learn about our history I felt I didn't belong to England or endorse their actions, past and present. All my cousins in India want to come to England or Canada or USA where as I want to go back to India and be rid of my britishness.

Good to hear you learned about the British rule. Many people in UK don't even know how horrible the colonial past was. We as Indians don't hate UK for the past, we love UK and the people. We want them acknowledge that the colonial rule was terrrible for India and other Commonwealth countries. And we don't want to hear them justifying the British rule, it is in no way justifiable.
It's okay to feel bad but don't let it persist. That's history now. Good Luck! Welcome to India!

@@sirlordhenrymortimer6620 Careful with what you wish for. Post-brexit, your PM is actually looking forward to licking Indian asses so as to sustain Britain economically. Today, if all the Indians were to leave Britain, more than 100,000 people will lose jobs there (source: Grant Thornton UK) . Indian companies in Britain reportedly paid 650 million pounds to your government in taxes (Source: India meets Britain 2016: Tracking the UK’s top Indian companies, a report by CII). The truth is that much of today's Britain has been build on the blood, sweat and looted wealth of millions of people around the world that suffered horrendously under British colonialism. But they don't teach you a line of all this in schools. And after all this ignorant British public have the audacity of making grand claims of how Britain contributed to globalization through colonialism. Some balls you have, I have to give it to you.

As a (white) New Zealander who lives in the UK, I'm always shocked at how little Brits know about their colonial history. It's something so key to how the UK is what it is today - and how it got there.

@@piyushjaiswal9283 Well I don't agree completely with him. There are many mistakes in Tharoor's speech.
@@piyushjaiswal9283 In 1750, India had 23% of the world's GDP because it had 25% of the world's population. However, Britain was already a wealthy country even before it colonized India. If we look at the per-capita income of India and Britain in the 1750s as per Angus Maddison data, Britain's per-capita income was three times that of India, and India's per-capita income had been declining for a century before Britain won the Battle of Plassey. Comparing the total GDP of India and Britain in the 1750s to argue that India was richer than Britain is like saying that Uttar Pradesh is richer than Goa today. Later, the Industrial Revolution occurred in the Western world after the Scientific Revolution, with the invention of machines and technologies like the steam engine, and their wealth increased exponentially. Meanwhile, India's global share of GDP dropped to 4% in 1950. The same thing happened in China, which was not directly colonized. In fact, China's per-capita income was even lower than India's at the time of independence. During the 1750s, China's per-capita income was higher than India's. Therefore, if we say that Asian countries are poorer because of colonization, then what happened to countries like Nepal, Bhutan, Ethiopia, and Liberia, which were not colonized? It's worth noting that Nepal has a similar history and culture to India, yet it is the poorest country in Asia. The fact that Nepal was not colonized by the British undermines the argument that colonization is solely responsible for a country's level of poverty.

He is not the real thinker. He is only narrating the thought he acquired by reading books. The real thinkers are those who's books he has read.
By all means appreciate Tharoor for talking about it, but always give credit to the thinkers who's narrative he is presenting. Dada bhai Naoroji is one of them. When I first heard Tharoor's Oxford speech, I recalled Dad bhai's drain theory. I had come across that term in Economics in my college days.

You can also read the same books and try talking like him at least for an hour Bhavin Ji...there is grace in acknowledging somebody's abilities...Everybody acquires wisdom by reading books from kindergarten....did you acquire it any other way?
D Krishna no doubt he is a shining star 🌟 of a society which is becoming intolerance society
Shashi is a great educated person respect for him
Can't agree less, and I wonder why Dr Tharoor is not brought to the fore and entrusted with the highest designation and responsibility in governance and what a delight that would be, to have him lead.
Hi, I really like listening to the thoughts of Mr. S. Tharoor. One of my great grandfather was a freedom fighter. He died at Jail in Lahore, after a hunger strike for 63 days in 1929. He was only 24 years old then. His name may be forgotten in today's world...but in my heart I know, that he showed the world that Indians wouldn't be dominated. What British did in India is still unpardonable. Money can't compensate that. What Mr. Tharoor said in laughter is quite serious in nature.
Pl name your great grand father.
Why I am asking this question is My understanding is that Jatin das sacrificed his life on 63 rd day of fasting
My curacity is did you belong to Jatindranath Das lineage.
Your reply will be much appreciated
@@mukundank4458 Yes, his name is Jatin Das. I am not his direct descendant. He born at his mother's house at Hatibagan, Calcutta and was raised there until he was 8. His mother's house is my maternal uncle's house which is above 350 years old building.
So proud to say that I am from the same place as this great legend is... I sincerely hope he become the prime minister of India one day 🙏
I have tremendous respect for his oratory skill. He will prove to be an excellent foreign minister of India.
He was the foreign mininster of india but he cannot say anything wrong about pakistan as his girlfriend is from neechstan
That's true. He is good in deceiving his auditory
Bijay Khaitan I see Dr. Tharoor as Prime Minister of India in the future. One of his speeches in none other than Oxford University was so accurate I bet they never expected to get such a barrage of facts and serves them right too. In social media there are many Indians who are very proud of his brilliance including me. Gentlemen who have worked so hard to be well educated and lead their people are hard to find. God Bless Doctor Tharoor.
Thank God he is not we don't require such a guy. You are carried away by his excellent articulation skill and his English. He is otherwise a sold out to Nehru Sonia family unless he comes out of their shadow he cannot be counted. His silence and subsequent objection to an inquiry to his wife's death is also an enigma.
@@dharamewada6922 A man is innocent until proven guilty. It is quite possible that Shashi Taroor's wife did commit suicide because she was told she had Lupus which is not curable. I admire Mr. Taroor and I hope some day he does become Prime Minister he has all the makings for a successful Prime Minister. The fact that he speaks well is an added bonus. Get with the times!!

BRITISH CRIMES IN INDIA.
( my response to dr Shashi Tharoor).
----------------------------------------
1-By conquering all of India, Britain ended an age-old rivalry, conflicts & bloodshed between Muslims, Hindus, Sikhs & Marathas, and united them into one nation and made them all feel proud to be Indian.
2-saved millions of lives of widows by abolishing the centuries-old practice of Sati.
3- saved millions of lives by abolishing the 1000s of years old practice of female infanticide in which the baby girls would be buried alive by parents to avoid paying dowry.
4- stopped Indians from butchering one another in the name of religion and caste.
5- promoted education and pulled Indians out of the dark ages and introduced them to the age of science and discovery.
6- built roads, bridges, schools and railway tracks and govt buildings like the parliament house and the president house.
7- introduced Indians to sewers, water closets and running water. Indians had been going to the jungle for the call of nature for 1000s of years.
8- gave the gift of the English language that is helping the subcontinent to learn science.
9- gave Indians a single currency.
10-protected the lives of minorities.
11- gave security and equal opportunity to all Indians.
12-stopped discrimination and racism based on religion or caste.
13- civilised Indians and taught them to respect law and order.
14- built army and police for the entire country.
15- introduced democracy in India and taught Indians the importance of secular and democratic values.
16- gave all Indians equal rights to education and jobs.
17- turned Indian society into a model society (watch the videos from that period).

So true.... I am a teacher and have been teaching internationally for a long time. I can say the Indian mind is exceptional. They would have been better without Britain's intervention. I have students from the UK and have discovered from teaching them that they are operating from a mindset of privilege. You can see it even in their school curriculum - where students are not even expected to work as hard, their excuse is there needs to be school / life balance. And I realize this is largely because after school they already know they will most likely land the better jobs, them being British seems to be enough to get all the best opportunities even with very little effort. Most of my students studying in British schools do not show the same resilience or intellectual ability in comparison for example to my students going to an Indian or Asian or American school. The kids want to do very little things but since their parents have the better paying jobs, their privilege to travel, access to expensive things (ipads etc), expensive social activities etc help them improve their mediocre abilities.
This needs to change. We are in a different time. I really don't even understand why wealthy Indians prefer British schools, to train and act like Brits. India doesn't need to do that. Based on population alone, India can survive on its own. They are on their own a big economy.
After teaching so many Indian students, I really stated to love their culture and just how great they ara as human beings.
I am not Indian by the way.

@@thetirelesscrusader4745 1)Right. England is that "great" country that introduced the world to democracy but is ruled by monarchs itself. The hypocrisy!😂
2) I recommend you to read about the Indus Valley Civilization in detail. It was one of the earliest civilizations in the world and had immaculately planned cities, with covered drainage and well maintained sewage system. So Indians were not unaware of these knowledge.
3) The whole world is turning to Ayurveda and Yoga. Were those written in English? I don't think so. Because they weren't! They were written in Sanskrit. So no. English is not necessary to learn science!🙄 The countries where people don't speak English also have medical facilities.
4) The Britishers had no equality and no regard for the religion of the Indians. Please read about the cause of rebellion by Bhagat Singh.
5) The Hindu King, Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj had already started building a strong navy in 1670s. So I don't know what knowledge of Navy or Army you're talking about.
So basically, you are still unaware of many aspects of the history. Also, all of these do not, can not, and can never nullify the fact that the Britishers murdered, tortured, and looted half of the countries in the world and still feel no remorse or guilt for that. If massacring hundreds of unarmed women, men, old people and children in a village fair doesn't count as a heinous act for you, then sorry, but you need to seek some help. URGENTLY. And also, get your facts straight before commenting on how many countries suffered under the cruelty of the Britishers.
They're not really showing the audience and it's just his mike - you're making a weird assumption. Also, whilst witty and amusing, they're not exactly knee-slappers

17- turned Indian society into a model society (watch the videos from that period).

Since they left, the entire subcontinent has turned into a hellhole for women and minorities.

I demand that the British government pay us reparations for the above-mentioned heinous crimes it committed against us, the poor Indians.

BRITISH CRIMES IN INDIA.
( my response to dr Shashi Tharoor).
----------------------------------------
1-By conquering all of India, Britain ended an age-old rivalry, conflicts & bloodshed between Muslims, Hindus, Sikhs & Marathas, and united them into one nation and made them all feel proud to be Indian.
2-saved millions of lives of widows by abolishing the centuries-old practice of Sati.
3- saved millions of lives by abolishing the 1000s of years old practice of female infanticide in which the baby girls would be buried alive by parents to avoid paying dowry.
4- stopped Indians from butchering one another in the name of religion and caste.
5- promoted education and pulled Indians out of the dark ages and introduced them to the age of science and discovery.
6- built roads, bridges, schools and railway tracks and govt buildings like the parliament house and the president house.
7- introduced Indians to sewers, water closets and running water. Indians had been going to the jungle for the call of nature for 1000s of years.
8- gave the gift of the English language that is helping the subcontinent to learn science.
9- gave Indians a single currency.
10-protected the lives of minorities.
11- gave security and equal opportunity to all Indians.
12-stopped discrimination and racism based on religion or caste.
13- civilised Indians and taught them to respect law and order.
14- built army and police for the entire country.
15- introduced democracy in India and taught Indians the importance of secular and democratic values.
16- gave all Indians equal rights to education and jobs.
17- turned Indian society into a model society (watch the videos from that period).

My ancestors are from Bangladesh and I had been told so many times regarding British brutality, tortures, murders and the atrocities that had happened in Bangladesh, then India. Some of my Grandparents told that so many of their Parents fingers had cut off as they were involved in Textile business producing Maslin, Fine silk, Exclusive wools and Design clothes. They were being even forced to stop seedings rice or wheat instead of beaten to planting indigo or dahlia plants for clothes dye in order to boosting Britain's cotton industry.
And, very sadly lots of my GRANDPARENT'S RELATIVES had died on the GREAT BENGAL FAMINE....
How would you forget all those pains, sad memories????????
Thats true fam dhakai muslin was incomparable to any fabric ever created. It could hideously be folded inside any space as large as a matchbox. My ancestors 200 years ago lived near sandwip, chittagong and my father told me they later moved out of that area for getting less or no prices for their salts. How I wish our ancestors were stronger and united and could defend this country like they should have had. I have no grudge against the British. They were opportunists and took the benefit of our weakness.
@@kamrulhasan3468 now Hindus in Bangladesh facing the same thing ,either convert or die ,how are you batter than the British is also a big issue there
@@imdeep5839 hahaha I had hindu best friends ever since I was a kid and I still have plenty of Hindu friends. I don't know from which source you get these information but hindus are treated very well in Bangladesh. They hold high govt official ranks and have a overwhelming majority in the police force. You are invited in Bangladesh to see it for yourself.
@@kamrulhasan3468 Stop lying.
Your Ancestors were Indians (Bengalis), not Bangladeshi's dude. This is what people of Pakistan and Bangladesh do not appreciate as they were brainwashed to forget who they were.
Amazing speech, one must listen to understand the British empire in India.
most intelligent person by india. proud of you sir...
The biggest joke of this century is people like Rahul Gandhi is Congress leader not Shashi tharoor.
@Ivan Zaytsev I can understand your feelings..
@Ivan Zaytsev the fact is Indians have no choice.
@Wargolldur Deva nowadays everyone is senior advisor.
@Ivan Zaytsev modi won terms after terms in state election he won this too. Advani was given his chance.
Congress is a party subservient to the Gandhis. The party serves Gandhi-Nehru family intrests not the other way around. Bound to happen when the family is bigger than the party.
