Hi, I am your host Siddhartha! I have been an entrepreneur from 2012-2017 building two products AddoDoc and Babygogo. After selling my company to SHEROES, I and my partner Nansi decided to start up again. But we felt unequipped in our skillset in 2018 to build a large company. We had known 0-1 journey from our startups but lacked the experience of building 1-10 journeys.
Hence was born The Neon Show (Earlier 100x Entrepreneur) to learn from founders and investors, the mindset to scale yourself and your company. This quest still keeps us excited even after 5 years and doing 200+ episodes.
We welcome you to our journey to understand what goes behind building a super successful company. Every episode is done with a very selfish motive, that I and Nansi should come out as a better entrepreneur and professional after absorbing the learnings.

Superb !! What an enlightened person Dr Sanjiv Sanyal is . Poverty aspiration it is a harsh reality what mr Sanyal has brought out . This podcast needs to be shown to more and more young lot . An eye opener !! We all are stuck in a situation where in we suffer from poverty inspiration !! UPSC is waste of time it is a fact youngster must carefully analyse this it is self explanatory. If you are talented and hardworking don’t join government jobs unless and until you are very very poor and no other opportunities available
Wasting time for 5 - 10 years behind UPSC is madness. However, if we give atleast a year for preparation, then our entire personality transforms positively. Problem is people can't come out of the preparation cycle. It is like addiction. We don't understand when to stop.
agreed , problem is the projection of these ias ips as some genius, they are generalist that lost its importance in this post modern society.
That's why We have IAS n IPS officers willing to go at any length to please politicians political startup needs.
Absolutely! It's up to us to ensure that this awareness is widely disseminated. :)
Reading arts is wste of time@@vinod.19
Ye admi aata hai, dimag ke dhage khol ke jata hai…
Great Mr. sanyal 👏👏
Definitely!! Aadmi toh bahut sahi sahi hai yeh. 😊
Ghanta kholta hai. Bekar ki baatein bol raha hai. Log khud gareeb rehna chahte hai. Bhai kon gareeb rehna chahta hai. Jab resources hi nahi honge unke pass toh kya hi improvement aayegi. Bolta hai log chhate hai lalu prasad ko chhunna. Bhai Pawan Singh, Akshara Singh, Hema Malini, Smirit Irani, sunny deol, brij bhusan, Smarat Chaudhary insabko ticket dete ho fir bolte ho log inko hi chahte hai. Economist ki gyan kitabo main hi aachi lagti hai practical life main ye gyan kaam nahi aati.
Great description 👏🏻👏🏻
@TheNeonShoww Your are deleting my comment again and again. This shows your pathetic attitude and your affiliation. Can't stand the criticism.
I can listen to him for hours!
I am Bengali.I know the pain of only limited aspirations.
To nijer aspirations baria nao he
Bengalis have won 2 Nobels for India. U guys are geniuses

"We are not just building an economy, we are re-building a civilization…" What a MAN!!
The best!! :)
Without economy no civil society exist man.
@subhasiryour comment is the opposite of whats happening in India.
This statement makes no sense
@@TarunSingh-cg3wpthen you are living outside india
200% agreed with Sanjiv Sanyal. He spoke my mind. By Elon Musk or Ambani, he did not mean that everyone must aim to be a businessman. He rather meant to aim for something out of the box, like Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam or Dr. CNR Rao or Sachin Tendulkar. Why get trapped into mediocre ambitions like becoming a babu and forwarding files, just because relatives in UP and Bihar value it. AIM FOR BIG.
Bro, India is not only UP and Bihar so just don't Gaslight them just inorder to put them blame of all problems of India 🤬
@@suyashverma9060 That was just a metaphor, as these states are the most crazy ones after civil services. In reality, relatives in all the regions of India go crazy after it. Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu are no less than UP Bihar.
If it isn't your ambition then it doesn't mean it's mediocre. The question should be asked to him as an economic advisor yo government how many opportunities, the government has created in state of Bihar, so the youth can capitalize on their skills. Has the state given the youth enough opportunities of education and employment? Probably civil services is the best way to show they capabilities. Aspiring for services is not only an aspirational phenomenon of youth but it's a failure of state to optimize their productivity.
@@dr.shivanshushrivastava1990 "metaphor" atleast don't be hypocritical, you just mentioned UP Bihar as they can be used as a punching bag because they are least developed and have least amount of regionalism rest of your comment is just sophisticated bulls#it
@@suyashverma9060 I have made my point clear. Now if you have free time you can go on adding comments, no worries.i have a lot of work, as I am neither a UPSC aspirant nor a babu.
Dear Sanjeev Da,
We are same generation you are from early seventies and I m from late seventies. I can totally relate what you mentioned. Now Bengal may see a political change but unfortunately there is no leader in Bengal. Dada, please come and rescue Bengal from the curse of " Poverty of Aspiration" I would be the first person to beside you...
i think we need to watch a podcast by College street Kolkata
Titled - why BJP ll rule Bengal
bjp will never rule bengal du to 35% muslism.
I like Dilip Ghosh, and Justice Ganguly is good too. Really don't want Subhendu to lead Bengal bjp. People like him have destroyed WB, just switching sides doesn't change anything.
And I have some issues with Bengal bjp too, although I support them and am gonna vote for them. They're focusing too much on the hindu-muslim issue (it is an issue, but not the most important one). I think they should focus more on crumbling education system, business unfriendly attitude, Gunda raj and corruption.
Yes, Bengal has no good trustable leaders
Being a Bengali that too from Kolkata, I totally resonate with Mr. Sanyal
Stay tuned! We're working to showcase the best of people from India. ❤ 🇮🇳
@@TheNeonShoww Please don’t
As a Bengali NRI, UK from Kolkata, I can totally relate to what SS is touching upon at @36:40. Recall or study about the tragic outcome of the Bengali doctor who invented IVF and the discouragement of “new” by then intellectuals! There's a movie too on it “Ek Doctor Ki Maut”. Won't deny that the same celebration of mediocracy pushed me to leave.
Intresting!! "Ek Doctor ki maut."
@@TheNeonShowwyes, must watch by great Tapan Sinha
yes.. pankaj kapur is the lead actor here.. its available in youtube.. very few people know about such movie
@@TheNeonShowwIt's a great movie on the tragic story of the doctor who created the first test tube baby in the world. He was bullied relentlessly by the commie govt and forced out of his profession.
@@BasakPratikI had seen it around 1986. Extremely thought provoking. In fact the character played by Pankaj Kapur commitrd suicide
Sanjeevji is nothing but brilliant. He is visionary rather than simply economist.
Absolutely, having the right vision makes all the difference. ✅
He should try for rajya sabha seat.
True.
After watching this interview, I can truly appreciate how and why Modi is doing what he is doing. Definitely, there is change in mindset…we are more confident, bold and aspirational and ever before. I wonder if we had this kind of government and mindset since 1947, imagine where we would have been. There is a lot of reading and understanding to be done on how India’s journey has been and how our minds were hijacked and manipulated, else history will repeat itself in an ugly way.
Thank you Sajeev sir for enlightening thoughts, I feel you are more member of EAC to the PM
That's the reason and go and research about modi ...modi is very dangerous...who said our economy is good..just read the articles...and read journals.. everything.....if you don't become a bureaucrat our politicians will play with people's life...rich people survive what about poor..if everyone is educated no one supports modi....and Amit shash you don't know the fucking truths...You will see upcoming 5 years... definitely this time modi win but just wait and watch ..... education is imp..modi is playing with that if modi gives education how North Indian villagers still working in south indians state like 200 300 rupees per day...
What a country of clowns we have become. Getting excited due to changed positive perceptions of India (which is just Modi’s PR) while the reality remains grim, and even more filthier. We as a country at this point are no more different than a mediocre individual making pennies but showing off as elite! So what if the perception has changed? Did the reality change at all? NO. Big NO.
There’s absolutely nothing enlightening in this verbal overdose from Sanjeev Sanyal who has no qualifications at all to be in any EAC let alone PM’s EAC.
Thanks for sharing, Prashanth. 🙏💚
What's about the rights of common people , you want to build a society of dictatorship ( modi) in which jcb bulldozer broke many house in the name of MODI , WHAT ABOUT HUNGER INDEX WHAT ABOUT PRESS FREEDOM , WHAT ABOUT PER CAPITA INCOME
@@brainpsycho4436 first try to get Complete knowledge no body will give you but you will be just half minded don't roam. Acc to you Before Modi there was everything fine No poverty no Press problems, No Black money And nothing ?? What are saying Is without any single knowledge of pre and post periods you must have to take into account to judge or to come at a conclusion. And Houses are broken of Traitors and Invaders on Public property. Don't comment bro with half knowledge it is like we are going in back in years having such mindset in you.
Being in Assam, I can clearly see what generations upon generations of poverty of aspirations can do to a population. I hope we can snap out of this soon.
Assam is good. Extreme Capitalism is bad we donot need in Assam. In extreme Capitalism country people become selfish no time for family no time for old parents this is reality. We donot need extreme Capitalism in Assam. We are happy. If you want to make Kolkata rich we donot have problem.
This is the first I am seeing Sanjeev sir in a slightly more aggressive mood. We need more of this voice.
I grew up in bengal, and lived my first 23-24 years in bengal, and I can relate to each and every thing Respected Sanjeev Sanyal ji spoke of. I am ever thankful to him for speaking these things, which are suppressed in bengal's mind...🙏🙏🙏
Certainly! Make sure to tune in to our previous hour-long podcast featuring Sanjeev Sanyal. :)
Bengalis are good ,polite ,educated. They spoken very sweet to others
Woh toh hai. 💚
This man is an encyclopaedia of knowledge, just blessed to hear him speak on any topic 🤝🏾
I'm glad you enjoyed it! Don't forget to check out his earlier podcast on The Neon Show as well. :)
OMG! what a clarity of thoughts, and this is how the strategy made ten yrs back and Indian citizens started seeing the upliftment. Now as fast as our economy is growing, our institutions shall concentrate on building CHARACTER among citizens in turn change in attitude and aptitude. Realisation of Apana Bharat and protect our assets. Another area for immediate improvement is skill development of highest order to handle high technology and think accordingly and not only building ITIs only. According to me even IITs are not producing good skilled engineers. I wish I was wrong
Apana Bharat. 💚🇮🇳
No one is skilled out of university. People learn on the job. University is for theory and some internship.
So grateful to have Sanjeev Sir back on the podcast again!
Please bring other advisors of Modi ji ( if there are many more)🙏🏻
Always a pleasure to listen to Mr. Sanyal, a true pride of Bengal and Bharat.
A true visionary!! :)
Vision to manifest success is your idea of success. No not a pride of Bengal, please stop handing out awards like that.
What an eye opener. His observation about a population getting the government they deserve is spot on! My home state of AP is the best example. Hope we aspire for better in the 2024 elections. 🤞
Mr Sanyal speaks my mind. Our Bengali society reflects this exact situation, it is not all bad if you learn a thing or two from the Punjabis. It’s time to learn from the so called “Hindustanis” about aspirations.
What the hell you're saying!
Become your fan today. Leaders like you inspire and India aspires...
17:15 That's exactly what Miss India winning Miss World/Universe was about. After 1991 economic reforms, in the second term of Bill Clinton when views on India turned positive, Miss India suddenly started winning International beauty contests one after the other. That was the 'pitch' to sell cosmetics to India.
Not saying that Miss India who won Miss World/Universe were talented enough to deserve it. They were. But talent wasn't enough for Miss India to have won both Miss World and Miss Universe title twice.
Beautiful observation
@@arunsar7893 other contenders were more talented but to get into Indian cosmetic industry and make Indian people consumers of their products... those titles deliberately given to Indian contenders and were biased heavily...
@@Rishi_1990talent kam ho tab bhi chalta Hain yeh sab contest mein. These are highly capitalist in nature.
Two Noble prize winners from Bengal in Britain & USA have got it for highlighting poverty.
As a bihari, i totally agree with Mr. Sanyal. But you've to understand that there are no industries and favourable industrial policies to inspire youngsters. Central government should definitely intervene.
Chutiya govt ko vote kroge. Central govt kya kar sakti he
Central government is shoving rotten Nitish chokha down our throats
I'd blame BJP for Bihar's current bad health
Caste politics is the reason no industries are available in Bihar. I only see a hope in Manish Kashyap.
If you know the laws,, unless the state government wants big companies to invest ,,the central cannot do anything
SS is a true nationalist and clearly capable economist, historian etc. But sir, please take care of your health. Clearly he doesn't sleep enough. Large dark circles around his eyes.
💚🙏💯
Really loved his statement - we are building civilization
Indeed, there are many good lines in the podcast. Be sure to spread awareness within your circle. :)
A podcast which should be listened by all Indians. Sanjeev Sanyal one of the best and logical speakers
Share it within your network, Harsh, and raise awareness. :)
Adda intellectual. So right. Late marriages, poor family relationships so common because of economic issues
Late marriages are choices. If you're conservative, whether you are rich or poor, you'll get married early, otherwise it's a choice.
There are so many problems in India than IAS or IPS preparation.Most of them forgot about those problems after achieving it. I strongly agree with Dr. Sanjiv Sir.
Thanks, Pranab ji. Stay tuned for more conversations on Bharat, and feel free to comment below on who you'd like to see next on The Neon Show. :)
People like me who have to leave West Bengal in order to work in MNCs in other states understand the true cost of Communism, Socialism, Licence Raj and Unionisation.
:(

I have lived in west bengal since childhood, I am from bihar , I love bengal more than my bihar .
I still remember the political fight , I used to study kvs raiganj , horrible chaos and riot between tmc and BJP , from murder to fight , curfew ...and still the condition is the same the bengal demography changed lot since independence, the politics and politicians are the root...
The Communists destroyed every industries in WB some established by British. In early 1990s Jyoti Basu was given the offer to make Calcutta the silicon valley of India but he refused. Now Bengali are compelled to work outside leaving aged parents.
Jyoti basu and leftist government at that time
Were against computer revolution
Not only that party politics in each and every even small industries also ruined the ecosystem at that time
During left regime
Dabur lest west Bengal
Now a days hardly anyone knows that dabur was a Bengal based company
LMAO. the left literally wanted to bring in TATA , remember what happened next? also remember someone by the name of rajnath singh joined the stage with Mamata Banerjee to oppose the TATA plant. Care to explain why the so called industry loving BJP helped out the TMC government back then?
I can relate to it 😢
Leftist are backward thinkers and they are pawn of Cia and west kyuki unko labours chahiye the duniya bhar se west me kaam karne ko it industry or kuch industry me @@unknownwanderer04
😢whats TMC doing?.. same gundagiri as CPM was doing
Question is why do they re elect them? That was deep
Mamata out lefted the left and now there is nothing left
Thats because congresd fucked up and the left promised a lot
@@shouryabhattacharya2284 Well left. 😂😂
@@shouryabhattacharya2284 lmao!! Outlefted the left xD
The way the Aspirational Poverty has been getting out and change is manifested now is truly appreciative of. It is excellently explained in the discussion by Mr Sanjeev Sanyal and is worth understanding by all Indian to improve the quality of experience and quality of life. Normally, it has been observed in last about 40 years in WB - Gur Roti distribution is the way people’s aspiration was suppressed to painful level.
Kolkatta is the best place I have resided. But CPM and TMC have destroyed it. Kolkatta must have a good leader.
The saddest part is that u will have to convert urself to islam within next 20 years if u don't escape from Bengal BCZ ur chief minister is not less than an alkayda or isis terrorist.
CPM noy TMC.
Absolutely right
@@srabanbanerjee7590 CPIM caused deindustrilisation not tmc. Cpm era had trade union problems and hartals not tmc. Although tmc screwed us in other ways too
@@ankushmukherjee3219 Bro u r speaking like typical 4 fail disciples. In order to have trade union problems u need to have trade unions 1st and trade union won't exist without factories. And now no trade union exists bczz no factory exists all are Gate closed. Credit goes to ur beloved chief Minister for closing the gates of Hindustan Motors and driving away TATA MOTORS from Singur and Petrochemical industries from Nandigram.
Wonderful discussion. Morale: Chose a visionary leader always.
Hundred Percent!! Vision is important. :)
Sanjeev sir is back!!👏
I am IITian and I can frankly say mostly (barring few) average engineers from IIT go for UPSC exams. Only those people who knew they would be average engineers. Also, big problem atleast with engineering is there are not enough cutting edge companies in India to inspire engineers; its all body shops like Infosys which are biggest companies.
There was a cunning small minded person like MARTA SEN.... AND THEN WE HAVE this man ❤❤ proud of you sir ❤
amartya sen.
I am a 1963-born Bengali who is out of Kolkata for 38 years and living in abroad for 31 years, totally agree with Mr. Sanyal what he had said about Kolkata. Yes, it was murdered by communist and We, the Bengalees, bear the pain in mind for our beloved city, Kolkata and West Bengal. CPM had murdered Kolkata and West Bengal, but also ruined the Bengali community morally, economically, socially. Surprisingly, now still they are asking votes and some Bengalis cast their votes for them!!!
I appreciate Mr. Sanyal' concern about the issue. IAS is been considered as the epitome of success since the birth of our nation and even before the independence. But my concern is how many middle class youth will be able to find a better alternative in our socio political and economic scenario. What is the percentage of financial help extended by our financial institutions to commence a business. Do we have a level playing field here. We need authentic data to corroborate the possibility of finding a better alternatives. Merely criticising the aspiring youth isn't the solution to a problem.
Well he's trying to say that aspirants should be pragmatic of their life situation, rather than clinging into a one job, viewing it as only epitome of success they can get in their lifetime is quite a low aspiration from their side.
Sir, You are correct in saying young people waste their energy in preparing for Govt exams. But, please do try to understand that liberalisation policies has not created jobs with dignified monthly income. And, for becoming countries of billioniaries, entrepreneurs we should have a very good basic infrastructure like education, health, housing etc. Without making a consistent long term investment in the above areas we are surely going to struck where we are today.
People who are putting eight hours a day and this much risk, and so much family capital in the exam , don't neee to work in monthly wages, they might be more capable only if they embrace insecurity and invest all this time and money, in something of their own.. most of them will anyway won't get that dignified job anyways
It is a hypocrisy that students are willing to take a RISK in preparing for upsc for multiple years, but cant take the same RISK in anything else. This is nothing but brainwashing, propagated by coaching mafias for their own business.
Thats the whole problem , we want the government to set up everything ,it can never happen in country of 1 .4 billion when even a super power with 3 times more land and 5 times more wealth still has homeless in their country.Stop this nonsense of government should arrange , it will only arrange for really down trodden ,if you have access to internet cheap and roof over your house , yoou are good enough to sustain yourself. Frankly its no ones reposisbiity to create jobs , one has to create their own
2-3 part time jobs a week will get you same salary as a monthly salary'.. use that saving to invest in sharemarket, mutal funds, SIP....then save money, make money and start a business
"Monthly income" is a drug given to you every month to keep you in control (subdued) and stop you from aspiring for something big. Why rely on govt for jobs and dignity?
It is so true UPSC or any gov examp after 2 attempts is useless. One should work and simultaneously give these exams in that way at least they have some industry experience
Re Ocean going Boat. A request Mr. Sanyal: Please make a website that will closely track the activities of the project - the milestones covered, the mile stones to go, designs made and changed, the unseen challenges, incomplete understandings, known unknowns, unknown unknowns, ...
I believe what you are doing should be taken to a wider population of Indian engineers and technicians. They need to rediscover the almost erased footsteps of those ancient boatbuilders.
There is a capital starvation problem, the Indian venture capital ecosystem is still primarily dominated by foreign actors and the people in India who actually do have the money would not fund beyond their own cartel. I see this everyday. How do we solve for capital starvation of the people who are willing to risk it and build a business…. A regular person who does not belong to a specific block.
Since so many startups are coming up as shown in previous economic survey map, it's clear that people are able to get funds
we need to stop being negative for every small reason. It blocks growth.
Lack of capital is due to lack of industrialization, as india manufacturers and industrializes more, there will be more available indian capital
@@varunkhugshal9049 Startups are all low-grade ventures into service sector. There will be 1000's of app based services like Zomato but zero investment in something like single crystal super alloy precision manufacturing.
There's no market in India why would anyone build business Zomato most business come from top 2 3 cities
Sir sanjiv is love...fab n fantabulous..he is living to the reputation of his illustrious legacy..💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛
With Due Respect Sir,
Firstly I agree with the few points that you have mentioned.
"Poverty of Aspirations "- Very ingenious term
Instead of glorifying what modi govt has done, just need to focus on
What are leading to Poverty of Aspirations !!! ?.
There are many issues that need to be sorted first
CORRUPTION
TRANSPARENCY
ACCOUNTABILITY
RESPONSIBLE GOVERNANCE
AND MANY MORE
Once we sorted our main issues "people don't settle for less." Else it would become a Vicious Cycle.
Secondly, WEST's problem
I agreed most of the points that some reports were misleading and wrongly manifested. And some organizations/states are not happy with India's growth.
But few of them are very genuine.
Thirdly, India's Rapid growth
Not one political party have had whole credits even PM spoke about it.
From Independence to till date, the policies which were implemented had good results as well as bad results.
We can say the previous government had created a ground for India's take off, it's a process not just one event.
From the Green revolution, LPG reforms and critical political decisions And so on
Lastly, UPSC- Fav Topic
Yeah it's true "Many chasing a few seats", since the demographic dividend is more.
Say approx 100 Seats:1L Candidates, UPSC need to have some reforms especially conducting the exam twice a year.
What led to this much craze bro?
1. To Come out of that poverty aspirations- everyone dreamed getting into service.
As you mentioned, More Competition than in any other field.
2. Due to State PCS irregularities and Corruption, Not a single state government releases the notifications regularly and nor they conduct in a fair manner. Ironically, In India Paper leaks more efficiently and effectively than ground water into the soil. Everyone starts preparing for UPSC
3. And with the advent of ICT, A few more folks are added.
It's good to prepare while doing a job (I Realized Lately)
So Before taking anything into our mind please think twice about what is Right or wrong. Let's build together Greater INDIA ❤
If 1/6 th world billionaires should be in India, proportionally, there should not be huge poverty in India proportionally. If he is to create a civilisation, which era is so free, as of today? Present civilisation is much more better than previous one. If a new civilisation is to be built, that should be headed by the oppressed so far .
Bro that's the point this man is talking about, once you want a government who brings transperency, no corruption and other such essentials then only such governments will come in power, only when you start wanting a government who believes in developing infrastructure then only that will happen, only when you start wanting a society valueing entrepreneurs you will generate employment ( I hate the idea of it being directly government's job to produce employment).
About the previous government's job of laying groundwork I would like to say, they were really efficient only when it was a life or death situation. Green revolution arrived because India was at the brink of mass starvation ( only 2 weeks reserves were left). 1991 economics reforms were introduced because India was at the brink of bankrupsy ( around a weeks reserves left) So saying they did put in the groundwork is an overstatement, they only did what they did so that they can continue filling their pockets.
I don't want to come accross as this government is completely exceptional. You will find a lot of properties bought by relatives of current executives in the government which is simply impossible without curroption, but they did invest in infrastructure and made doing business fairly easier than before ( still miles left)
@@harshvardhanagrawal2225the current gov is safe bcz it’s in power. Ed, cbi and central agencies show that.
@@soultune908 No current govt has worked quite well , ask pvt sector people like me who work sincerely not govt babu (incompetent and corrupt) Northie craps like you .
@@issackokkiligadda9921 you speak of marxist idelogy
Great episode once again Neon Show, glad to see Sanjeev sir back!
Shukriya. ❤q
Being a bengali, I can definitely relate to this! Bengal is dying under TMC rule. WB needs a CM like BJP states
Amazing to have him back .
Always. 🙏
Persisting weaknesses of hesitant Calcutta and easygoing Bengalees, as analysed by Dr Sanjeev Sanyal in this precious video presentation, have been identified so precisely. Accordingly, it's now easier to eke out the ameliorative steps required for regeneration of all round development once again, provided the Bengalees are really serious about their future. The observations made by Dr Sanyal would serve as a road map of sorts for necessary course corrections.
Sanjeev sanyal is among the few people in India worth following.
This is a great personality, attitude and sentence to explain freely is great...... Good 👍 .... From Ayodhya.🚩Jai Shree Ram...🙏
Much awaited!!!
I am working in Kolkata and wanted to buy an apartment in Kolkata, however I later decided to stay in rent because of the brokerage goons out there.
Even if you want to rent out your own apartment you need to pay brokerage. So this way owners do not have full control of their apartment. Then what is the point in investment for an apartment.
Nobody does that in kolkata, stop spreading misinformation
Perfectly said Mr Sanyal. Perfectly said. As I learnt from my father : 'No company can be better than the man at the top of it." That sums up all. We are now going through the rule of thugs. The result of rigging in art form.
Being a Bengali from Kolkata I can relate to this, Kolkata is doomed, we have no idea if at all it will rise from the ashes
#RohingyadsOutFromWestBengal
Totally agree with Sanjeev Sanyal sir.... He aptly mentioned the grim situations of West Bengal and the real reasons for it.
Being a Bengali I can never doubt his clarity of thoughts in this issue.
Remember lee kyuan before building Singapore took inspiration from Kolkata 😂

Thanks for sharing, Ganesh. :)
Reasons for downfall of Kolkata :
1. Partition of Bengal in 1947.
Partition distanced two third of Bengal from Calcutta immediately lessening the importance of the city.
2. Rise of the Communists: Though B.C. Roy the CM of Bengal did quite a lot for development of the truncated part of Bengal, Communists kept gaining in strength capitalising the pains of partition. And rise of the Communists was associated with declining work culture in the state, leading to a decline in industrial relations. After B.C. Roy, freefall of Bengal took place. So did Kolkata.
Timid herd mentality of easygoing Bengalees, lack of initiative and self respect, excessive and fruitless politics for all and sundry, laziness and 'p overty of aspirations' and such social weaknesses have speeded up the decline considerably.

Oh man this guy is a genius, loved the whole conversation!!!
I'm glad you enjoyed it! Don't forget to check out his earlier podcast on The Neon Show as well. 💚
No please ask him to pay attention to Kolkata. Dont abandon it. My heart breaks. I love the city so much. These sons of Bangla must stand beside Buri Ma
This is called poverty of aspiration. Why for Kolkata? Why not for whole Bengal?
Living in a highly capitalist city in India, I felt so much peace and comfort in Kolkata in my recent visit.
This man is slowly changing my whole perspective of looking things with a different lens.
Make sure you watch our previous hour-long podcast with Sanjeev Sanyal. :)
We can feel the energy in you sir. A true Bengali and a devoted Hindutva rastravadi. Thanks for showing mirror to bengali society.
Only development of Kolkata will be when BJP come s in power in West Bengal 🕉️🚩⚔️🇮🇳
I like the way u dream.. 😂.. It's true that change is needed, but we can't expect the change for the worst..
Yes we can expect good old days again only if BJP comes in power in Bengal. Mamta, Congress or Communist can never built it.
@@karthikan2834worst ? There is no potential for development to economic ratio, they don't have plan B, where some tom dick harry comes to change everything, it utter BS, We need to choose the govt wisely, at the moment no political parties are great, 60% good will be BJP only ....like it or leave it
@@pramodborkar5897 bjp receives 42% votes in bengal and can probably go to 45%. Considering hindus to be just 63% of total population, thats max bjp can get.
Sanjeev Sanyal a person par excellence. What a grasp of knowledge. Next governor or finance minister?
The truth is bluntly spoken
Thanks, Amit. Do check out our previous hour-long podcast featuring Sanjeev Sanyal. :)
A big fan of both Sanjeev Sanyal dir snd this channel ❤
Thank you! I wish you all the best for the upcoming cricket season. :)
Hope to see you as a Financial Minister in future, just like Dr Jaishankar in Foreign Ministry.
Oooo bhaaiii Sanjeev sir you are absolutely a gem … whenever I listen to him every time I get to know new stuff … more power to you ❤
Excellent interview. One of the best I have heard. So much wisdom.
Poverty of ambition, aspiring to be a goonda or a local committee leader, Kerala ticks every single one of these boxes. I don't know how to save myself and family from the impending doom.
I have the same problem here in West Bengal. People here are cynically calling it as Waste Bengal
@@dipankarkanjilal6515 As if UP and Bihar didn't suffer humiliation 😂
Brutally Correct...
What a commendable discussion. Much needed for dynamic thinking . Need more of such content .Thank you.
Great!!..the more I hear Mr Sanyal it's benefitting me truly and in TH-cam I look for his presence.. wonderful experience...
Mr. Sanyal speaks well of our aspirations and gives a direction to them. One sees the different skill training programs are also making a Huge Difference across rural India where roads are developing. One such program is the Drone Didi skill programme. In my work across sectors I see a noticeable change in women's attitudes and youth attitudes which are changing households' attitudes and not in a bad way but a very great evolutionary way.🙏🏻
Having the correct mindset along with vision is quite essential. :)
Great continuation from the last episode
Thanks, Vienna. 🙏
Brilliant episode! Looking forward to hear more from Dr. Sanyal
13:34 YOU ULTIMATELY BECOME THE HERO THAT YOU CHOSE ❤
For having 1/6th billionaire we should also have 1/6th of global GDP not just 1/6th population. Literally in PPP terms Ambani and Adani are richer then Bezos and musk without building any globally known/exported brand or products unlike bezos and musk. Most of their business are where government intervention or contracts are needed which clearly shows the crony nature of their wealth.
Excellent ! I fully agree 💯 .
Kuch bhi logic laga de.
India's population is almost four times that of the US so, what is this import/export argument? India had four unicorns in 2014 and now it's over 100. Tu bhi bana le ek startup/unicorn and ban ja millionaire or billionaire. I hope you will create something like "Jio" that revolutionizes the digital landscape of India.
And if you know that Adani and Ambani get a contract delivered from government offices then go to court and get it cancelled.
P.S. India needs more Adani and Ambani because they not only creating infrastructures in India but now pushing out of India too in a way expanding India's sphere of influence.
@@chirag4648 tu kabhi millionaire ban jaayega kya?
@@ChadErenYeager9392 Pappu ke 14, didn't you read the whole message? I'm not opposed to anyone becoming millionaire and billionaire.
US has four percent of the total global population so, by his logic the US share should be four percent of the total global economy, 4 percent of the total millionaires, billionaires, etc., What kind of argument is that?
As exporting Indian technologies goes to the world, it's not going to be easy. It can seen in the case of China (the likes of TikTok, Huawei, etc.) but eventually, it will happen in a few decades. Is it going to be easy? No, it will not.
He talks about government intervention and contracts. Do you want entities like Air India(in government control) again? The government used to spend 20-25cr. daily to keep the airline afloat.
I'm scratching my head to make sense of these arguments but after my reply, I saw that this person watches Ravish Kumar and after that, all of his arguments started to make sense.
Fyi ... PPP terms don't work on billionaires. What are they gonna buy 10 million burgers and 2 million Banana smoothies 😅
The reason people want govt. jobs due to no need for performance, benefits, competition, expectations of quality job performance, corruption, and future portions based on seniority.
Kaafi Sach!! :)
Beautiful podcast...
So deep. Youth must be aspired from poverty of aspirations to possibilty of their abilities and potentials.
A constructive approach to build greater India will certainly happen. This kind of podcast are eye openers to many
Thank you
I’m now a big fan of Sanjeev sir😊
13:29 what indian youth is idolising now is tiktokers/influencers. Not that we don't need them today - but we should aspire to become better professions - industrialists, scientists.
Influencers can be a better profession if they use it in a positive way. I think we shouldn’t see any profession as less. That’s the basic reason why there’s no dignity of labour in India. In western countries, a carpenter or a plumber gets the same respect an engineer gets. There should be no better or worse profession. It should be based on the interests of the individual, even industrialists or scientists can do negative things. It’s not jobs but attitudes of people in that jobs that should looked for
Listening to this on loop, and sharing with friends n family sir sanjiv is such a next level intellect.. clarity of thought n love for country very much evident..huge blessing that he came back to uplift bharat.. I always get swades feeling listening to him..yeh jo des hai tera..
Great respect for him. Being in the government and saying that the govt shouldn't have that much control in private life is really remarkable.
I am relieved that this man is in charge of the nation’s economic policies. Better late than never.
Never thought about things like this. Love this video. Much appreciated
🙏
Every word of this man is very true!!!
Stay tuned! We're working to showcase the best of people from India. :)
Here's an interesting question i think many would love to indulge in:
Q. What if the the Indian Rupee (₹) (hypothetically) appreciate (rises) into the single digits, against the USD($).
I have personally tried alot to find the answer to this, but there is interestingly very little research into this, that I could find.
Some are hypothesising this as a prospective future for india, and Sanjeev ji has talked about it being harmful for our exports on twitter, in response to those.
But what you could do, is explore it more.
This is huge thing either way, good or bad, or both and nuanced.
I say this, because, while the exports will shift to more luxury stuff, our imports (which includes oil) would become cheap by a factor of 5-10 which HUGE, therefore possibly making things mad cheap, and thereby (possibly) boosting the purchasing power of any holder to by several times.
This could be an interesting question i think, and being a economicst and historian, i think he could give alot of interesting views on this.
the exchange rate is a symptom of balance in economies of the world, not the other way around i.e. economies will balance out because of the exchange rate.
if Indian rupee strengthens because the world becomes weak it will not be beneficial for India. If Indian rupee strengthens because the Indian economy performs well then obviously it will benefit India.
An unrestricted system will always move towards equilibrium, when overall world becomes volatile then India will be affected negatively too, and vice versa.
Another possibility is moving towards protectionism(a restricted world), it will be a net opportunity loss. Counties who are free and have better access to means will be better off.
Exchange rates have no real meaning except converting between systems of measurement. Same as converting kilometer to miles, rupee and dollars are just ways to measure the economies of each country.
1 INR is 1.83 YEN still Japan is a larger economy due to their higher output.
Amul butter in india is 400 rupee for half kilo
Similar quantity of butter at Wholefoods or walmart is 5-7 dollar which is slightly higher but only because supply chains are more expensive in the US. This has nothing to do with dollar exchange rates.
Also China intentionally undervalues the Yuan to keep the manufacturing contract negotiations stable and also keep manufacturing cheap and competitive.
If inflation in India is identical to USA and the economic growth is higher, INR will automatically start to grow higher. (Given no external factors)
All these are just examples to justify that exchange rate has no real meaning except measurement of economies and their systems.
It's not that deep of a question.....the one clarification i would ask from you....since u asked the question....is at which time frame are u talking about....is it at a time....when India has surpassed the US in real per capita GDP and hence real GDP....or at the present state of economy the answer will depend on this...
If India produces luxury stuff , that is very less elastic and whole world wants it , then rupee will appreciate. And this won't even hurt us, because we will be able to consume more items without losing on our exports. Whereas if we artificially appreciate rupee (in current scenario), then our trade deficit will increase sharply which will deplete our forex reserves and to artificially appreciate rupee we have to decrease supply of rupee in the market, which will lead to deflation and thus lower economic growth.
Indias exports are rather low or low grade. Plus we have to import 80% of our energy. Additionally, we have terribly low capital investment in precision manufacturing.
Oh God... Mind blowing. Can't imagine this devil design of West. Great sir, need more of you.
The more I hear Sanjeev ,.more I am awed by his logic and narrative structure.
I feel sad for bengal 😢. I know how intelligent they are and their potential.
They are not intellegent, they are pseudo intellegent,
We are still infatuated with commie mindset even though we know it doesn't work. And people of elite intelectual class are most commie of them all. so I don't know what intelligent about that
