I was missing him. I love listening to him. Calm humble articulate and truthful, logical, open, only a stupid brainwashed student will not do PhD with a learned man like him. Prof,, good for you,that student didn't deserve you.
fantastic person with a huge clarity of thought.. the most impressive thing about him n our EAM is both are calm ..to the point n puts across their viewpoints very clearly.. gr8
Mr Paranjape was the only true intellectual in this discussion..always proud of u sir !! 🙏 ..thank God 2014 happened else can't even imagine the situation..
Remarkable interview, mostly because Ms. Dutt had little to say and had allowed the good professor to speak. The first audience question was hilarious and the professor missed an oportunity to rebut her angry question about why Hindu civilization needed to be taught when there was 800 years of Islamic rule followed by 200 years of British rule. Because, Madam, there was 2000+ years of Hindu civilization that preceded it. And very possibly another 2000+ years since the Indus Valley civilization was the ancestor of many current Hindu practices and stream of thought. The term "Hindu" as used by the professor broadly encompasses all of the Dharmic faiths and philosophies that are the indigenous civilization of the subcontinent. Much of which has been suppressed or relegated as an afterword or a chronicle of defeats in the JNU telling of our history. Just like Pakistanis, whose history telling starts with the invasion of Sindh, this lady apparently believes India's story only begins with the Islamic invasions, which were devastating and near fatal to the great civilization that existed before. The late, great Naipaul understood this wounding more perceptively than anyone at JNU, and was shunned by them for his troubles. He knew better than anyone that these were half-baked mimic men and women. Caricatures as exemplified by this lady, and Dutt, and Javed Akhtar.
I don't see how "JNU" has suppressed Indian history, or for that matter, the "Left" has done so. The history books I learnt in school DID tell me about the Indus Valley, the Cheras, Cholas, Pandyas, Harsha, Ashoka, all of them. Of course, they also told me about the Mughals, but I don't remember them painting Indian history as a series of "defeats." And I also don't see how the "Islamic" invasions, the way you put it, were devastating and "near fatal" to Hindu civilization. If anything, they appear to have had a very limited impact, given that even undivided India was still overwhelmingly Hindu. The problem stems from the view that you and many from the Right take that the Mughals were "Islamists" and therefore somehow outsiders. Apart from Aurangazeb, who was very recent, the Mughals were not Islamic in the sense that Islam is understood today. Yes, they might have followed Islam, but they were for the most part simply trying to hold on to power. So, well, the fact is, they are not really "outsiders" trying to harm some primordial uncorrupted Hindu civilization. They were just the last, or if you count the British, the second last in a long line of those who came to the subcontinent. Do you think that there was 2000+ years of "uninterrupted" Hindu civilization preceding the Mughals? Given the multiple documented (and God knows how many undocumented) visitors to the subcontinent, both invaders, and those who came in peace, it is highly unlikely. Indians are a mixed lot, and calling a bunch of people who came in 800 years back (if you count the "initial" Islamic invaders) as "outsiders" doesn't make sense. Importantly, what you understand as Hindu now doesn't follow from some unbroken essential Hinduism that has been practiced for 4000 years. Elementary history - even the "non JNU" type, and common sense will tell you that.
Rightly said, Integrity is most important than ideology. Good to see these people putting forth the views so nicely even with opposing thoughts being spoken. Yes, Barkha Dutt was the most admired journalist of her time. The biases she mentioned from the viewers is due to the fact of one sided views being aired to the liking of the journalist and their political inclination most often than not. National interest and delivery to the last and the least are more appropriate ways to assess the performance of the government. Every citizen must be accountable for their actions in nation building before they question the system. Finally, Dr. Paranjape has rightly said, hindus and muslim must learn to co exist, for this the muslims must accept of the vandalism that ruined the Hindu culture in the past and they must feel that they are the citizens like the rest of us rather than living in the vague sense that they are the ones who ruled the country for the last 1000 years and hence superior to the rest.
Thank You Barkha for allowing Makarandji to speak his mind. I don't know whether you people understood what he said ,because the lady who asked the question was so rude and impolite and hateful of one section of society,,she should learn something from Makarandji .Thank you for hosting a sensible talk, a little change from day to day bashing of Modi government and majority community in general. If you read these comments let me tell you I disagree with most of the things you say and dislike them ,but still like to watch your channel because I like dissent which is important in democracy.
India isn't an isolated entity... The same is happening in Bangladesh, Pakistan, Denmark, Norway, France, Britain, America, Italy, Germany, Portugal, Belgium, Holland, Srilanka, Australia, New Zealand etc etc and etc. But it doesn't happen in China, North Korea, Russia.
@@doggystyle98 Sweden, France, UK are shifting from left to the center right due to a certain ideology which stifles any rational conversation and who kill on slander.
*China is foresighted , they understand that these people might become headche for them in future , so they put entire peaceful community in concentration camps to not to create any hindrance in their progress*
@@pravinthombre7610 Easy to pretend you are an idealist and rationalist when you are at the backfoot.This Same barkha dutt justified our exodus in Kashmir by claiming that Muslims were fed up of Pandits being recruited in elite jobs in Kashmir.The same woman who was carrying out a live telecast of kargil war and showing our Army locations to enemy. Since her ecosystem has also narrowed down to the core,he needs something to resurge into prominence.
One of the best balanced interview in today's time. Thanks to Barkha for making it happen. We need people like Makarand to talk & be vocal otherwise we'll really enter the dark age. The fourth pillar of democracy, the media is highly responsible and it's time they need to act from conscience instead of political interests.
She is disinterested in his answer and restless to shoot her next question. She is the journalist who gave away Indian operational details to Pakistan through live reportage....
Burkha even though for most part I lately (after your NDTV career) used to think you are biased towards one side, I have an inkling that you are not really that. Please be your self and continue to have this type of discussion with people like Professor Paranjape, who is. the most open minded critical thinker! Please do this with J.SaiDeepak also!
Please check her op Ed's and interviews to the foreign media after ndtv career u will know which side she is For example she was selected to select one name of top 100 personalities of all eminent personalities from science sports and other fields she choose mamatha banerjee ( I am sure which side she is) And about sai deepak he said his opinion about barkaa in a gathering it is on youtube he is unlikely to accept invitation
I remember barkha interview of Kanhya kumar. Her lines were -- he wears a smile that goes right upto his ears -- her entire body language showed she was infatuated with the poster boy of tukde tukde gang.
The main problem is that Muslims blindly believe that Quran is the word of God and their Prophet was God's messenger. Why did God choose a human being to send a message to other humans? If you were God, wouldn't you send a divine being with superhuman abilities so that humans know only God could have sent him? At least, wouldn't you send a magical book with divine properties so that humans know that it was not created by another human? Or would you reveal your word to a human being without anybody else as witness?
While it's true that Muslims have a literalist interpretation of the Quran, it is also true that Hindus see their texts as the gospel truth as well that's why there is an entire movement and political campaigns around considering mythology as "itihasa". As an atheist, I fail to see how the 2 of you can't be pit in the same category where this is considered.
@@cauliflowerhead2735 How many hindu texts have you read?Atheism is also part of the philosophy of Sanatan dharma.Unlike abrahamic religions,Sanatan dharma is not a single book of laws that every faithful is supposed to adhere to but different set of ideas.There are many school of thoughts who don't believe in god,the group you claim to be part of. You know what's the difference?You wont be able to openly express your disbelief in Allah in a Muslim majority country.So it's kind of laughable and ignorant of you classify two different religions in the same category.
Hands down to the professor. I have myself studied history, polity and philosophy in great detail. Have a global work experience. But I'll come no way near this professor. The effective and lucid way the professor put forwards his points is commendable. His act of balancing both side of the narrative is highly mature and skillful. The first lady which asked the question, seems to have been jittered by the professor. She says that she can quote counter examples but the fact is she can't. On the face of it, she appears to be an elitist with a little knowledge of the subject at hand.
I still remember barkha reporting from Kashmir in the early years of her career. It took me few years before I met Kashmiri families and came to know the truth. After that she is never a journalist to me. I don’t say I hate someone but will never believe her even my life is on line
He is an atheist, islamic atheist is no such thing he criticizes religion as a whole ur hindutva has blinded you of viewing him as antihindu or pro muslim
Great Job m'am. I disagree with most of what you say (or might beleive) - but definitely appreciate your efforts to give space to the other point of view.
Barkha was once a celebrated journalist. Her popularity started going down when she started coming to take interview with certain mind set which is not confirming to her ideology. When she asks asks one such question if the answer is somewhat not confirming her own categorical thinking she will put another question which tries to clearly categorise as other
Madam, The statements made by Makarand Paranjape seems to be coorect in what he is saying. He is saying the facts as to what is happening in our country today.
Makarand, u were just brilliant!! The narrative is why can't the indian muslims be like Hindus respecting the culture & civilisation of their ancestors for which they should ALSO be proud of?
I have closely watched leftist parties crimpling industry in West Bengal during my youth. I hear similar stories of universities being taken over by same leftists. Parents send their wards to universities to learn things and become a better human being, but political parties who have infiltrated these organizations poison the young minds with their ideology. Nothing that they are doing should be criticized but everything they say against the whole world should be accepted at face value. JNU has become what an academic institute should never be. I am certainly impressed by Prof. Makarand. I am sure he must be having a tough time in JNU.
Excellent presentation by Prof Makrand Paranjape. Very pathetic interviewing by Barkha. Unnecessary interjection to push her narrative which was out of place. She started as a very talented and promising journalist but her political ideology overcame her. We as public would want the journalists and media to present the facts not their ideology. That is the work of politicians which we have enough of it from all angles.
At 15:58 Ms. Dutt asks why Hindus want to be like the Islamists they abhor? The recent events underscore the incentive for mimicry. Some weeks ago a DU historian posted an incendiary tweet on Lord Shiva. While there were some muted protests on social media, the system protected the man and even celebrated his invective as a matter of free speech. Just days later the BJP spokeswoman made objectional remarks about the Prophet of Islam. This resulted in violent protests throughout the country, brought international censure, and now even champions of free speech are decrying the "blasphemy". A well-respected journalist like Shekhar Gupta said that freedom of speech should be proportional to to the receiver's ability to take offense! The message is clear, the system rewards roguish behaviour and hooliganism. No wonder the Hindus are mimicking the Islamists.

Generally I avoid anything Ms. Barkha Dutta. It was a disillusionment after long lost of episodes including ***a tapes. My personal conclusion. I watched to see how the discussion has formed. The start itself was extremely promising and brutally truthful. This is what as a HINDU NATIONALIST, I want to see. Credit to Ms. Dutta that she has grown up from limiting responses from asking opinions about her conclusions to asking questions to listen to the response, giving ample space. This format is I want. And I, is the only one. This is the majority. That is how we can dismantle the lies wrapped around the truth. The example of this truth wrapped in truth is the first audience question 'why cannot be India Story'. Obviously she thinks India as British which is not. Appeasing Jinna and Ali brothers did not stop partition. Facing them with brutal truth may.
Her body language shows that she is reluctant to accept the correct arguments made by Prof Paranjape. She never condemns the Tukde Tukde Gang even once. Here is the man who is ripping Marxists ideas apart that too being in JNU. Bravo Professor, it needs great courage to do that in spite of facing the Panch Bakkars on their face. He completely uncovers the JNU for us. I don't why BJP or MHRD looks for VC somewhere else. Here is the guy who knows the system in out. Cudos to Barkha too for providing stage to Professor Paranjape!!
This is the right time for the book to be released, the vessel is hot, hammer it!! Why one think kashmir files, was a huge success, 500 crores!! With the old ppl scratching the wounds again & again, it will take a long time for ppl of india to heal or it might just break india in to many pieces! The kind of knowledge you shared is fantastic but rest assured, many were none aware as very few ppl cared about it to such a large extent, until present govt came in to power! The way you want ppl to acknowledge the history as it is, you have to understand, ppl are of different kinds & may not be on the same page as you! You can share your information but not impose it & it's not about integrity, it's about not being convinced enough! Also old generation is wasting a lot of youths time, let me prove it to you! Lets take the statistics, say ppl with age 0 to 10, they are in school, have you seen the syllabus today, it's loaded as competition everywhere, the students least care about history and just want the grades to look good! No one decides at this age, they want to be historian! Now 10 to 20, they are getting in to their teens, lot of hormonal changes, they are figuring themselves out, trying to impress ppl they like and enjoying their love/friendship period, the last thing on their mind is history! 20 to 40, their career just started, some are still studying, some are figuring it out, some ppl are going international, but everyone is in this race & looking forward to make a meaningful journey, history is not the time now! Now rest of the ppl, who have reached a comfortable position in their life, no loans, their pockets are full, they have good time to wile away and zero goals, retired ppl, they are the ppl who will be okay engaging themselves in history but they have no right whatsoever to corrupt the youth & Gen z who have great plans for their life! Technology, Planet earth, development - self and country should have been the subject but the hot topic is history, religion & i wonder why, hit the hammer when it is hot!!! It is not about right or wrong, it's about sanity which is need of the hour but ppl have learnt the formula of instant success that is hate, let's cash on it before it cools down, so be it the book writers or movie industry, no one wants to lose this opportunity and ppl (with no real goals) as usual, they are drawn to all this nuisance which is a good narrative but won't be helpful in their career or personal life/journey!!!
@@surinderchowdhury i learnt this long back about me, i don't think & talk like other ppl, i always look at the larger picture, perhaps that's the reason very few ppl get me & it takes time for ppl to understand where i come from, no hurry, take your time!
@@setu2712 a country and its people can't escape from its history. Truth will prevail if not today them tomorrow. If one hasn't burried the history there wouldn't have been the point of digging it. people have the right to know who they were and what happened to them. All the Lutyen gang and Marxist cheated this country just for their agenda for decades. They lied and made india a white canvas so, that every one could stereotype and give their own narrative. India remained a bankrupt nation with no mind and soul of its own. It imported the problems and even solutions from West. If you rob people of their identity, they would be left with nationalism. it's relieving to see today these people have no relevance today, not in either state or society. And history and science can go hand in hand. I can walk and chew gum at the same time. Lol
I heard Prof. Paranjape for the 1st time and was impressed with his clarity of thought and a fantastic command over language to express himself. Kudos to him and hope B.D invites more of such guests.
*Mudasir Ahmad Sheikh..."Bindass"...Jammu and Kashmir policeman, who was martyred in the Baramulla encounter...sacrificed his life to save hundreds of lives, we all are proud of you*
Loved the guest.Loved what he said . Loved the way he articulated his views 😍 Dear Makrand Pranjpe, I came to know your name only after hearing you full .
Thanks Makarand, the logic is as good as your language and articulation. Spot on about Wokeism, Liberal, Pseudo Secular and Leftist taking over a fight against humanity and establishments. Jai Sri Ram 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
Barkha Dutt was one of leading voices during the UPA Government. She will try to centerstage Muslims, let the Kashmir dispute continue forever, and play a prominent figure when there is turmoil in India. She will naturally be uncomfortable when India peacefully prospers. Present day is her most difficult time.
I never thought I would actually see thru this podcast fully, but thanks to the guest, Makarand Paranjape ji over an unbiased statement. The new reality of our time has changed : Yes, because Oppression against us according to the Leftists. It is OK because we are a majority and prosperous. Minorities should have special privileges because they have a dozen children and are poor. Why someone from the Left Think Tank doesn't advice special minority to do family planning, have 2 children and educate them, so that they become prosperous too. Hindus are an easy and tolerant target.. go and pick on them and abuse them and their religion over practicing Caste System. For God sake, who practices caste system today. My bosses are SC/SC/BC/OBC,. Thanks to Reservations and cutoffs on percentage marks given to them by political parties, we are bound to follow their decisions, even though their IQ is lower and we can clearly see its wrong. Today, even if we have Cold or Cough, Middle class has no choice but to visit a Private expensive hospital, because all General hospitals are full of RESERVATION Doctors that passed with 30% marks, and we don't believe in their treatment. Such doctors should be treating the politicians who gave them the reservations. Stop taking us for granted and depriving us of our basic rights, it was not our choice to be born Hindu. The rules and privileges should be same for all. We do not want to pay the price of being born in some caste or religion. Thus far and NO further. Criticism should be free of Religious beliefs, its something personal and it applies to all including Left Think Tanks if we can still call them "think tanks".
JNU only awards certificates but teaching of officers of the Armed Forces is NOT done by the faculty of JNU. That’s why these officers remain patriotic !
Very interesting conversation. In spite of Mr. Paranjpe trying to drive home the truths, one could make out that Barkha was subtly taking pro-left and anti-government stance all the time, true to her nature.
It was indeed a delight to see a conversation between two divergent ideology and Prof. made lot of sense and I was definately bowled over by his conviction for integrity and scientific evaluation but I was just appalled when he conformed to the the fears "that one day muslim population will supercede hindu population in India" without any data or scientfic study and when Barkha pointed out her source; he questioned one of the source's " motivation" and his counter arguement was flawed and wishy washy ( talking about south Asia to Arab world), this made me question his own “integrity”. My dear Sir, when someone without being asked or accused says "I am not a propagandist", chances are, they usually are!
It has already superceded in Kashmir and the area they call Pakistan and Bangladesh which were once hindu majority and these are the regions especially Kashmir where Secularism has gone to the dogs with Muslims in majority.If this is not enough to convince you,nothing can.
@@akshaymattoo4456 please check your facts -Kashmir even at the time of partition had Muslim majority, infact so was Jammu (and many muslims from Jammu migrated to Pakistan ). I don’t which year are you referring for Bangladesh cos the reason it became east Pakistan at the time of partition was cos it was Muslim majority. Please check the latest population survey and it’s report about Muslim population rate of growth. Infact Kashmir has one of the least population rate of growth inspite of being a Muslim majority state .
@@ashishchawla4373 Here wo again,more deflection,I am a kashmiri Pandit so please don't try to school me about my own motherland.The history of Kashmir goes beyond 1947 so Does India's. Read Rajtarangini,the history of kings of Kashmir and how Islam set it's foundations there. As I said,"Authentic history".Not the barkha dutt narrative.
@@akshaymattoo4456 how does you being Kashmir pandit add anything to the discussion, if anything it probably adds to your bias, I am not here to debate about Kashmir issue. My simple and limited point- show me any scientific data where it says “Muslim population in India will overtake Hindu population “ till then please don’t make it slugfest here, thanks :)
@@ashishchawla4373 Well you said,Muslims were majority in J&k on which you were proved wrong. You said his reference to middle East was wishy washy which is also wrong since Arab world had thriving civilizations before islamists destroy these civilizations. Back to your point,Muslims obviously won't overtake population of hindus in entire India when they adopt family planning and stop having multiple wives but since they are not ready to reform their existing laws,it's a genuine concern as nobody would have expected them to become majority in Kashmir. Since you know,a Muslim majority area is hell for non muslims,all of us should together be concerned with the growing Muslim population. So again,Please start reading more apart from what they feed you in left echo chambers.
Cow matha meat meal eaters can do wazu (washing feet etc.) on the ultimate God of Hindus Baba Viswanatha and also drill God's swaroop but they can not tolerate indiscript cartoon or some sentence spoken in a discussion or speech.

Professor is very good. Classification on Sanata Dharma is absolutely correct. There are 1000+ Universities in India including Central Universities, which are supposed to lay foundation for excellence in education, innovation, sports and overall personality development. There is lot of unnecessary focus on JNU which doesn't add any real value to the country except rabbler-rousing. Real committed workers come from grassroots across India who have real sense and responsibility for public service. Ideology concept has changed in the current times, very different from French revolution or Marx and students also should evolve. JNU is an overhyped place with many masquerading as self-proclaimed intellectuals supported by so called leftist liberalist media.
Professor, in the primeval and medieval periods, the practice was for the Victor's to destroy places of worship of the vanquished and replace it with their own. The Greek and Roman Temples were replaced by the Churches after Constantine adopted Christianity. After the rise of Islam, the Churches were destroyed and replaced by Mosques in North Africa and West Asia. In South Asia, Buddhist Viharas were replaced by Hindu Temples by the Shunga and Shashank and several Hindu Dynasties after 2nd BC. After Islamic conquests, in Persia and India Temples were replaced by Mosques. We need to ask should we in India still carry on with these medieval practices in modern India? It is not the question of real estate on which a Shivling or Fountain is situated, but the question is whether we in India should learn to acknowledge such medieval practices and move India forward to the future. If the Professor wants to restore pre- Islamic Hindu temples, then why not ask for restoration of pre- 8th Century Buddhist Viharas on which Hindu Temples were built? His argument against secularism being a Western concept is not on solid grounds. The concept of secularism in the context of India as a multi-denominational State requires the State to maintain respectful and principled equidistance with all religions. Secularism in Europe means withdrawal of Religion from matters of State, but the State can interfere if the Religion becomes intrusuve in personal lives of people. In America, where the term secularism was defined, there is a clear separation of Church and the State. In India, the State is becoming an actor in the Religion. It is allowing nationalism or patriotism to be defined by a religion despite India being a multi-denominational State.
State is using Islamists,sickukars and woke leftists as oxygen to push its political agenda........but neither Islamist nor Leftists are ready to acknowledge their false sense of superiority.
About Gyanwapi, can it cease to be a matter of religion but matter of truth, integrity and justice. Hindus won't go about asking for all 1000 temples to be restored, but at least The ones that hold a lot spiritual significance. Gyanwapi is a jyotirling, and ppl are washing their hand and feet. In hindu majority country, it is being reclaimed legally and not forcefully in itself speaks volumes that for Hindus humanity is above religion. And we'll be happy and grateful to muslims who contribute towards serving truth and justice, because they too have to uphold the sanctity of their religion, but in case they don't It will be done through courts. Satyamevjayate
Kuddos to Barkha as well to conduct this interview though I don’t agree with her all the time. And Professor is so well articulated in his thoughts. Simply awesome! Keep it up!
Hinduism is a religion like many others ...Sanatan Dharma has nothing to do with Hinduism , but with Vedic lifestyle. People today like to mix these two things up. Anyone can follow this path of Sanatan Dharma, Vedic lifestyle... also a Hindu.
britishers came and left, muslims came and should have left too. Indians should not even think of dividing the country which originally belonged to Hindus. Anyone who talks about division should be put behind bars
Despite the bias that lurks behind everything Barkha Dutt says, I've been following MojoStory because she is trying to be more nuanced than anyone else - aside from Shekhar Gupta, who is the epitome of nuanced thinking in Indian journalism, not to forget Fareed Zakaria, Ian Bremmer from the global theater of journalism. Finally, if she is able to get past her own biases (she can keep telling us how her left-wing friends are furious at her for doing so :) ), yet we welcome this refreshing change in her attitude. As for professor Paranjape, the clear logical thought process and command over both English and Sanskrit, it is music to our ears!
Five minutes into the interview and Barkha realised she made a mistake in calling Professor. He's so articulate and clear in his thinking unlike Barkha's uncooked theories about majority community
I do agree with abt 95% with what he’s said, the only thing I don’t agree with is what he’s said abt the political motivation behind the sudden interests in these divisive topics. He says it was subdued before but that’s not that case, but ever since modi came it’s become volatile & contentious, whereas before 2014 NOBODY was scared to use the word Hindu nor found it apologetic, however now many of these RW andhbhakts (sorry to use that word) use it as an intimidation which is totally unnecessary. Hinduism is very diverse & it’s NOT an abrahamic religion, it’s far more evolved & accommodating where even an atheist can call himself a “Hindu atheist” coz it pertains to the spirituality of the Hinduism & not idol or figure worship.
Absolutely delightful to listen to you Prof Makrand..i agree with every bit of your logic of rationality.. unfortunately the world is moving towards more polarization and divide.. Hinduism should not be confined to a set of religious philosophy to divide people on an ideology..
He held his ground... We need such intellectuals on our side.

Just like Pakistanis, whose history telling starts with the invasion of Sindh, this lady apparently believes India's story only begins with the Islamic invasions, which were devastating and near fatal to the great civilization that existed before. The late, great Naipaul understood this wounding more perceptively than anyone at JNU, and was shunned by them for his troubles. He knew better than anyone that these were half-baked mimic men and women. Caricatures as exemplified by this lady, and Dutt, and Javed Akhtar.
I don't see how "JNU" has suppressed Indian history, or for that matter, the "Left" has done so. The history books I learnt in school DID tell me about the Indus Valley, the Cheras, Cholas, Pandyas, Harsha, Ashoka, all of them. Of course, they also told me about the Mughals, but I don't remember them painting Indian history as a series of "defeats." And I also don't see how the "Islamic" invasions, the way you put it, were devastating and "near fatal" to Hindu civilization. If anything, they appear to have had a very limited impact, given that even undivided India was still overwhelmingly Hindu. The problem stems from the view that you and many from the Right take that the Mughals were "Islamists" and therefore somehow outsiders. Apart from Aurangazeb, who was very recent, the Mughals were not Islamic in the sense that Islam is understood today. Yes, they might have followed Islam, but they were for the most part simply trying to hold on to power. So, well, the fact is, they are not really "outsiders" trying to harm some primordial uncorrupted Hindu civilization. They were just the last, or if you count the British, the second last in a long line of those who came to the subcontinent. Do you think that there was 2000+ years of "uninterrupted" Hindu civilization preceding the Mughals? Given the multiple documented (and God knows how many undocumented) visitors to the subcontinent, both invaders, and those who came in peace, it is highly unlikely. Indians are a mixed lot, and calling a bunch of people who came in 800 years back (if you count the "initial" Islamic invaders) as "outsiders" doesn't make sense. Importantly, what you understand as Hindu now doesn't follow from some unbroken essential Hinduism that has been practiced for 4000 years. Elementary history - even the "non JNU" type, and common sense will tell you that.
Its really great to hear prof Paranjape.
Rightly said, Integrity is most important than ideology. Good to see these people putting forth the views so nicely even with opposing thoughts being spoken. Yes, Barkha Dutt was the most admired journalist of her time. The biases she mentioned from the viewers is due to the fact of one sided views being aired to the liking of the journalist and their political inclination most often than not. National interest and delivery to the last and the least are more appropriate ways to assess the performance of the government. Every citizen must be accountable for their actions in nation building before they question the system. Finally, Dr. Paranjape has rightly said, hindus and muslim must learn to co exist, for this the muslims must accept of the vandalism that ruined the Hindu culture in the past and they must feel that they are the citizens like the rest of us rather than living in the vague sense that they are the ones who ruled the country for the last 1000 years and hence superior to the rest.
Thank You Barkha for allowing Makarandji to speak his mind. I don't know whether you people understood what he said ,because the lady who asked the question was so rude and impolite and hateful of one section of society,,she should learn something from Makarandji .Thank you for hosting a sensible talk, a little change from day to day bashing of Modi government and majority community in general. If you read these comments let me tell you I disagree with most of the things you say and dislike them ,but still like to watch your channel because I like dissent which is important in democracy.
Beautiful and exquisite conversation, Makarand Sir is a genius
India isn't an isolated entity...
The same is happening in Bangladesh, Pakistan, Denmark, Norway, France, Britain, America, Italy, Germany, Portugal, Belgium, Holland, Srilanka, Australia, New Zealand etc etc and etc.
But it doesn't happen in China, North Korea, Russia.
It's only happening in Indian subcontinent and other equivalent human cesspools.

Hats off to Dr Makarand!! Now we need a solution to set right the balance.
One of the best balanced interview in today's time. Thanks to Barkha for making it happen. We need people like Makarand to talk & be vocal otherwise we'll really enter the dark age. The fourth pillar of democracy, the media is highly responsible and it's time they need to act from conscience instead of political interests.

I love this dude ..we have to give him mileage
The main problem is that Muslims blindly believe that Quran is the word of God and their Prophet was God's messenger.
Why did God choose a human being to send a message to other humans?
If you were God, wouldn't you send a divine being with superhuman abilities so that humans know only God could have sent him? At least, wouldn't you send a magical book with divine properties so that humans know that it was not created by another human?
Or would you reveal your word to a human being without anybody else as witness?
While it's true that Muslims have a literalist interpretation of the Quran, it is also true that Hindus see their texts as the gospel truth as well that's why there is an entire movement and political campaigns around considering mythology as "itihasa". As an atheist, I fail to see how the 2 of you can't be pit in the same category where this is considered.
@@cauliflowerhead2735 How many hindu texts have you read?Atheism is also part of the philosophy of Sanatan dharma.Unlike abrahamic religions,Sanatan dharma is not a single book of laws that every faithful is supposed to adhere to but different set of ideas.There are many school of thoughts who don't believe in god,the group you claim to be part of.
You know what's the difference?You wont be able to openly express your disbelief in Allah in a Muslim majority country.So it's kind of laughable and ignorant of you classify two different religions in the same category.
Hands down to the professor. I have myself studied history, polity and philosophy in great detail. Have a global work experience. But I'll come no way near this professor. The effective and lucid way the professor put forwards his points is commendable. His act of balancing both side of the narrative is highly mature and skillful.
The first lady which asked the question, seems to have been jittered by the professor. She says that she can quote counter examples but the fact is she can't. On the face of it, she appears to be an elitist with a little knowledge of the subject at hand.
There is no doubt you are with Tukde Tukde gang, we never doubt that.
In fact the terms she used for right wing - militant, uncivilized, dangerous -but she demands to be free from labels ?
I still remember barkha reporting from Kashmir in the early years of her career. It took me few years before I met Kashmiri families and came to know the truth. After that she is never a journalist to me. I don’t say I hate someone but will never believe her even my life is on line

Barkha was once a celebrated journalist. Her popularity started going down when she started coming to take interview with certain mind set which is not confirming to her ideology. When she asks asks one such question if the answer is somewhat not confirming her own categorical thinking she will put another question which tries to clearly categorise as other

Madam, The statements made by Makarand Paranjape seems to be coorect in what he is saying. He is saying the facts as to what is happening in our country today.
Well done Professor!!
Makarand, u were just brilliant!! The narrative is why can't the indian muslims be like Hindus respecting the culture & civilisation of their ancestors for which they should ALSO be proud of?
I am an atheist and consider myself a liberal... But this guy has all my respect
I have closely watched leftist parties crimpling industry in West Bengal during my youth. I hear similar stories of universities being taken over by same leftists. Parents send their wards to universities to learn things and become a better human being, but political parties who have infiltrated these organizations poison the young minds with their ideology. Nothing that they are doing should be criticized but everything they say against the whole world should be accepted at face value. JNU has become what an academic institute should never be.
I am certainly impressed by Prof. Makarand. I am sure he must be having a tough time in JNU.
Excellent presentation by Prof Makrand Paranjape. Very pathetic interviewing by Barkha. Unnecessary interjection to push her narrative which was out of place. She started as a very talented and promising journalist but her political ideology overcame her. We as public would want the journalists and media to present the facts not their ideology. That is the work of politicians which we have enough of it from all angles.
Loved to listen professor. He had my voice...
Fun, entertaining, civil and supremely informative discussion..

Professor ,pls donot waste your energy in explaining tothe biased minds You have proved your point ,it's difficult for the biased minds .
At 15:58 Ms. Dutt asks why Hindus want to be like the Islamists they abhor? The recent events underscore the incentive for mimicry. Some weeks ago a DU historian posted an incendiary tweet on Lord Shiva. While there were some muted protests on social media, the system protected the man and even celebrated his invective as a matter of free speech. Just days later the BJP spokeswoman made objectional remarks about the Prophet of Islam. This resulted in violent protests throughout the country, brought international censure, and now even champions of free speech are decrying the "blasphemy". A well-respected journalist like Shekhar Gupta said that freedom of speech should be proportional to to the receiver's ability to take offense! The message is clear, the system rewards roguish behaviour and hooliganism. No wonder the Hindus are mimicking the Islamists.
Miranda, lsr ki randiyaan bhi aukaat se zyaada mooh chalati hai
Generally I avoid anything Ms. Barkha Dutta. It was a disillusionment after long lost of episodes including ***a tapes. My personal conclusion.
I watched to see how the discussion has formed.
The start itself was extremely promising and brutally truthful. This is what as a HINDU NATIONALIST, I want to see.
Credit to Ms. Dutta that she has grown up from limiting responses from asking opinions about her conclusions to asking questions to listen to the response, giving ample space.
This format is I want. And I, is the only one. This is the majority. That is how we can dismantle the lies wrapped around the truth.
The example of this truth wrapped in truth is the first audience question 'why cannot be India Story'. Obviously she thinks India as British which is not.
Appeasing Jinna and Ali brothers did not stop partition. Facing them with brutal truth may.
Her body language shows that she is reluctant to accept the correct arguments made by Prof Paranjape. She never condemns the Tukde Tukde Gang even once. Here is the man who is ripping Marxists ideas apart that too being in JNU. Bravo Professor, it needs great courage to do that in spite of facing the Panch Bakkars on their face. He completely uncovers the JNU for us. I don't why BJP or MHRD looks for VC somewhere else. Here is the guy who knows the system in out. Cudos to Barkha too for providing stage to Professor Paranjape!!
This is the right time for the book to be released, the vessel is hot, hammer it!! Why one think kashmir files, was a huge success, 500 crores!!
With the old ppl scratching the wounds again & again, it will take a long time for ppl of india to heal or it might just break india in to many pieces!
The kind of knowledge you shared is fantastic but rest assured, many were none aware as very few ppl cared about it to such a large extent, until present govt came in to power!
The way you want ppl to acknowledge the history as it is, you have to understand, ppl are of different kinds & may not be on the same page as you! You can share your information but not impose it & it's not about integrity, it's about not being convinced enough!
Also old generation is wasting a lot of youths time, let me prove it to you!
Lets take the statistics, say ppl with age 0 to 10, they are in school, have you seen the syllabus today, it's loaded as competition everywhere, the students least care about history and just want the grades to look good! No one decides at this age, they want to be historian!
Now 10 to 20, they are getting in to their teens, lot of hormonal changes, they are figuring themselves out, trying to impress ppl they like and enjoying their love/friendship period, the last thing on their mind is history!
20 to 40, their career just started, some are still studying, some are figuring it out, some ppl are going international, but everyone is in this race & looking forward to make a meaningful journey, history is not the time now!
Now rest of the ppl, who have reached a comfortable position in their life, no loans, their pockets are full, they have good time to wile away and zero goals, retired ppl, they are the ppl who will be okay engaging themselves in history but they have no right whatsoever to corrupt the youth & Gen z who have great plans for their life!
Technology, Planet earth, development - self and country should have been the subject but the hot topic is history, religion & i wonder why, hit the hammer when it is hot!!!
It is not about right or wrong, it's about sanity which is need of the hour but ppl have learnt the formula of instant success that is hate, let's cash on it before it cools down, so be it the book writers or movie industry, no one wants to lose this opportunity and ppl (with no real goals) as usual, they are drawn to all this nuisance which is a good narrative but won't be helpful in their career or personal life/journey!!!

If one hasn't burried the history there wouldn't have been the point of digging it. people have the right to know who they were and what happened to them. All the Lutyen gang and Marxist cheated this country just for their agenda for decades. They lied and made india a white canvas so, that every one could stereotype and give their own narrative. India remained a bankrupt nation with no mind and soul of its own. It imported the problems and even solutions from West. If you rob people of their identity, they would be left with nationalism. it's relieving to see today these people have no relevance today, not in either state or society. And history and science can go hand in hand. I can walk and chew gum at the same time. Lol

Dear Makrand Pranjpe, I came to know your name only after hearing you full .
It is so sad for loosing long time friends for just being from a different faith. They are tearing the nation apart . Who will save the nation now ?
Thanks Makarand, the logic is as good as your language and articulation. Spot on about Wokeism, Liberal, Pseudo Secular and Leftist taking over a fight against humanity and establishments. Jai Sri Ram 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
Barkha Dutt was one of leading voices during the UPA Government. She will try to centerstage Muslims, let the Kashmir dispute continue forever, and play a prominent figure when there is turmoil in India. She will naturally be uncomfortable when India peacefully prospers. Present day is her most difficult time.
Kudos to Paranjape jee for giving bold answers without mincing words and with clear thoughts and statistics.
Well said ,each word ! Bravo Professor..It should be sleepless night for Barkha Madam.We hope she will be well prepared next time .
Integrity is integral - Thanks Prof Makarand Paranjape
I never thought I would actually see thru this podcast fully, but thanks to the guest, Makarand Paranjape ji over an unbiased statement.
The new reality of our time has changed : Yes, because Oppression against us according to the Leftists. It is OK because we are a majority and prosperous. Minorities should have special privileges because they have a dozen children and are poor.
Why someone from the Left Think Tank doesn't advice special minority to do family planning, have 2 children and educate them, so that they become prosperous too. Hindus are an easy and tolerant target.. go and pick on them and abuse them and their religion over practicing Caste System. For God sake, who practices caste system today. My bosses are SC/SC/BC/OBC,. Thanks to Reservations and cutoffs on percentage marks given to them by political parties, we are bound to follow their decisions, even though their IQ is lower and we can clearly see its wrong.
Today, even if we have Cold or Cough, Middle class has no choice but to visit a Private expensive hospital, because all General hospitals are full of RESERVATION Doctors that passed with 30% marks, and we don't believe in their treatment. Such doctors should be treating the politicians who gave them the reservations.
Stop taking us for granted and depriving us of our basic rights, it was not our choice to be born Hindu. The rules and privileges should be same for all. We do not want to pay the price of being born in some caste or religion. Thus far and NO further. Criticism should be free of Religious beliefs, its something personal and it applies to all including Left Think Tanks if we can still call them "think tanks".
she can't argue with him so stops him every time he started to paint a clear picture
Hats off to the professor for the courage to bring to light the ground reality!
JNU only awards certificates but teaching of officers of the Armed Forces is NOT done by the faculty of JNU. That’s why these officers remain patriotic !
Very interesting conversation. In spite of Mr. Paranjpe trying to drive home the truths, one could make out that Barkha was subtly taking pro-left and anti-government stance all the time, true to her nature.
I respect Barkha for holding this debate! Paranjape sir is amazing like always!
It was indeed a delight to see a conversation between two divergent ideology and Prof. made lot of sense and I was definately bowled over by his conviction for integrity and scientific evaluation but I was just appalled when he conformed to the the fears "that one day muslim population will supercede hindu population in India" without any data or scientfic study and when Barkha pointed out her source; he questioned one of the source's " motivation" and his counter arguement was flawed and wishy washy ( talking about south Asia to Arab world), this made me question his own “integrity”. My dear Sir, when someone without being asked or accused says "I am not a propagandist", chances are, they usually are!
It has already superceded in Kashmir and the area they call Pakistan and Bangladesh which were once hindu majority and these are the regions especially Kashmir where Secularism has gone to the dogs with Muslims in majority.If this is not enough to convince you,nothing can.
@@akshaymattoo4456 please check your facts -Kashmir even at the time of partition had Muslim majority, infact so was Jammu (and many muslims from Jammu migrated to Pakistan ). I don’t which year are you referring for Bangladesh cos the reason it became east Pakistan at the time of partition was cos it was Muslim majority. Please check the latest population survey and it’s report about Muslim population rate of growth.

@@ashishchawla4373 Well you said,Muslims were majority in J&k on which you were proved wrong. You said his reference to middle East was wishy washy which is also wrong since Arab world had thriving civilizations before islamists destroy these civilizations.
Back to your point,Muslims obviously won't overtake population of hindus in entire India when they adopt family planning and stop having multiple wives but since they are not ready to reform their existing laws,it's a genuine concern as nobody would have expected them to become majority in Kashmir.
Since you know,a Muslim majority area is hell for non muslims,all of us should together be concerned with the growing Muslim population.

Professor is very good. Classification on Sanata Dharma is absolutely correct. There are 1000+ Universities in India including Central Universities, which are supposed to lay foundation for excellence in education, innovation, sports and overall personality development. There is lot of unnecessary focus on JNU which doesn't add any real value to the country except rabbler-rousing. Real committed workers come from grassroots across India who have real sense and responsibility for public service. Ideology concept has changed in the current times, very different from French revolution or Marx and students also should evolve. JNU is an overhyped place with many masquerading as self-proclaimed intellectuals supported by so called leftist liberalist media.
Professor, in the primeval and medieval periods, the practice was for the Victor's to destroy places of worship of the vanquished and replace it with their own.
The Greek and Roman Temples were replaced by the Churches after Constantine adopted Christianity. After the rise of Islam, the Churches were destroyed and replaced by Mosques in North Africa and West Asia.
In South Asia, Buddhist Viharas were replaced by Hindu Temples by the Shunga and Shashank and several Hindu Dynasties after 2nd BC.
After Islamic conquests, in Persia and India Temples were replaced by Mosques.
We need to ask should we in India still carry on with these medieval practices in modern India?
It is not the question of real estate on which a Shivling or Fountain is situated, but the question is whether we in India should learn to acknowledge such medieval practices and move India forward to the future.
If the Professor wants to restore pre- Islamic Hindu temples, then why not ask for restoration of pre- 8th Century Buddhist Viharas on which Hindu Temples were built? His argument against secularism being a Western concept is not on solid grounds.
The concept of secularism in the context of India as a multi-denominational State requires the State to maintain respectful and principled equidistance with all religions.
Secularism in Europe means withdrawal of Religion from matters of State, but the State can interfere if the Religion becomes intrusuve in personal lives of people.
In America, where the term secularism was defined, there is a clear separation of Church and the State.
In India, the State is becoming an actor in the Religion. It is allowing nationalism or patriotism to be defined by a religion despite India being a multi-denominational State.
State is using Islamists,sickukars and woke leftists as oxygen to push its political agenda........but neither Islamist nor Leftists are ready to acknowledge their false sense of superiority.
I request you to interview J sai deepak on his best selling book "India that is Bharat".It would be an amazing lesson for audiences here
😃
I respect Prof Paranjape. He says what he has to say without shouting.
About Gyanwapi, can it cease to be a matter of religion but matter of truth, integrity and justice. Hindus won't go about asking for all 1000 temples to be restored, but at least The ones that hold a lot spiritual significance. Gyanwapi is a jyotirling, and ppl are washing their hand and feet. In hindu majority country, it is being reclaimed legally and not forcefully in itself speaks volumes that for Hindus humanity is above religion. And we'll be happy and grateful to muslims who contribute towards serving truth and justice, because they too have to uphold the sanctity of their religion, but in case they don't It will be done through courts. Satyamevjayate
What we think is...
JNU, AMU, JAMIA MILIA, JADAVPUR UNIVERSITIES should be closed down.
Kuddos to Barkha as well to conduct this interview though I don’t agree with her all the time. And Professor is so well articulated in his thoughts. Simply awesome! Keep it up!
can u plz share ur reporting video from Kashmir during the genocide happened there for ndtv mojo madam???
Hinduism is a religion like many others ...Sanatan Dharma has nothing to do with Hinduism , but with Vedic lifestyle. People today like to mix these two things up. Anyone can follow this path of Sanatan Dharma, Vedic lifestyle... also a Hindu.
Will the person who asked first question should answer herself what was before 800 year ago
britishers came and left, muslims came and should have left too. Indians should not even think of dividing the country which originally belonged to Hindus. Anyone who talks about division should be put behind bars
Prof Paranjpe,you are truly inspirational,
What a brilliant brave man talking on real indian history
Despite the bias that lurks behind everything Barkha Dutt says, I've been following MojoStory because she is trying to be more nuanced than anyone else - aside from Shekhar Gupta, who is the epitome of nuanced thinking in Indian journalism, not to forget Fareed Zakaria, Ian Bremmer from the global theater of journalism.
Finally, if she is able to get past her own biases (she can keep telling us how her left-wing friends are furious at her for doing so :) ), yet we welcome this refreshing change in her attitude.
As for professor Paranjape, the clear logical thought process and command over both English and Sanskrit, it is music to our ears!
She is not at all secular , doesn't even ready to agree with a true Gandhian
respect to Makarand Paranjape
Five minutes into the interview and Barkha realised she made a mistake in calling Professor. He's so articulate and clear in his thinking unlike Barkha's uncooked theories about majority community
I do agree with abt 95% with what he’s said, the only thing I don’t agree with is what he’s said abt the political motivation behind the sudden interests in these divisive topics. He says it was subdued before but that’s not that case, but ever since modi came it’s become volatile & contentious, whereas before 2014 NOBODY was scared to use the word Hindu nor found it apologetic, however now many of these RW andhbhakts (sorry to use that word) use it as an intimidation which is totally unnecessary. Hinduism is very diverse & it’s NOT an abrahamic religion, it’s far more evolved & accommodating where even an atheist can call himself a “Hindu atheist” coz it pertains to the spirituality of the Hinduism & not idol or figure worship.
When you are fighting with monster, you have to be monster even if that's not your primal instinct or nature.
See Barkha's face . A clear sign of disagreement when Prof Paranjpe sounds extremely sensible
Thank you Prof Paranjpe
Absolutely delightful to listen to you Prof Makrand..i agree with every bit of your logic of rationality.. unfortunately the world is moving towards more polarization and divide..
Hinduism should not be confined to a set of religious philosophy to divide people on an ideology..
most erudite, cool - My salute to Mr. Paranjape
There exist a right wing leaning centrist,
Who is not a Sanghi but definitely not a communist.
Your article became the basis for Sabarimala ,right mam
Why don’t you write the same for women entry in mosques ????😅😅😅😅😅
Barkha Dutt needs Yogi Adityanath...Period..
Sanatan Dharma is the religion, Hindus are the people who live in the sub continent.
