Both India and China got sovereignty back from foreign occupation about the same time, and both with about the same number of population. Today India still has millions living in extreme poverty, while China managed to alleviate extreme poverty within a few decades. It would seem to be a good idea for India to be a little humble and learn some things from China, which can really help India solve many of India's challenges.
India was never shackled by uS/uN sanctions after getting sovereignty . China was shackled by the sanctions for nearly 25yrs of getting sovereignty.
This India political system will never allow!
The caste system limits the ability to.
@@gregwang8628 point is why no political will to tackle the problem that obstruct progress ? They dont have great revolutionary leaders to bring real change
China lost 30m people in WW2 and what 2020 super poper bha RAT ever did??? 😂😅😂😅
First! So excited to watch, I have been waiting for Radhika’s analysis on the Indian election! And with Prabhat Patnaik too - awesome!
Thank you guys for the work you do.
PM Modi took office in 2014, just 2 years after President Xi. Except for the Ambanis and Adanis(nobody ever heard of him before 2014) the living standard of the people still remains the same, if not worst. In fact the country has seen more divisions and crisis than ever before. Modi masters the art of delivering long speeches while Xi brought 600 million Chinese out of poverty. Modi is a curse for India.
He is a disaster and a horrible influence on the country .
And yet Xi is always called the dictator. I'd say people like von der Liar act more like dictators.
Exactly. I keep seeing western and Indian media trying to lionize India and insist that India can become the next "China". I say a system that can produce a leader like Modi and oligarchs like Abamni and the Adani family will never be able to replicate China's success.
Well Said 💯 %.
Salient point .
Good insight. I was hoping he would include the manipur issue which was one of the factors for his defeat but no one talks about it. The problem India has is the arrogance and status quo.
It's nice India has 6 national parties. The US has only two major parties and both are neoliberal and/or outright pro-corporate/big business
wishful thinking; apart from the cpi(m) all others are pro capitalism
@@user-em4kb3gm8g - in the US it doesn't matter which party you vote for you still get the same results, that is what you don't want.
That is a good reason for the independent party to not to be allowed to get any traction.
With the fall of the US dollar i expect that ro change. I wish you well.
@@JJuniverse1111 yes, you're correct. With either party in the US, Americans get "the same results". Those results are neoliberalism and further corporate control of American political arena. But, i don't want this, nor do most average Americans. But, Americans are easily led astray by a blatantly propagandistic media, which itself is composed of only 5 or so corporate monopolies. (Propaganda in the US is a huge multi-billion dollar industry. It was openly called "propaganda" before WWII. After the war, it was called "public relations" because of the bad connotations associated with "propaganda" during the war by the German fascists.) Consequently Americans led astray with side issues, relatively less important issues, about religion, about abortion, about trans-gender rights, gun ownership etc, etc. List of distractions is long.
Can PM Modi read?
...yeah - but so could Reagan and Thatcher. 🤷♂️
Curious, why is this the 1rst time i have found this in my utube feed? I would have thought it would have shown up sooner with over 200k following. My best to you.
You must be looking at more left leaning content, the algorithm tries to pander to your proclivities.
All content is first class - Ben Norton usually hosts most shows.
Radhika and Hudson usually have very analytical content on geopolitics, which proofs the actual state compared to opinionated narratives.
@@myresponsesarelimited7895 , no left leaning content for me thanks.
Modi's party on it's own won 238 out of 543 seats. That's not even 44% of the total. 🎉If you are truly the "most popular Prime Minister/leader of the entire world" like what the Indians had proclaimed, you would be winning at least 75% seat just like Maldives's Miuzzu who won 71 out of 93 seats (76%)? Looks like the Indians were caught lying again. (Source: ASTHA RAJVANSHI TIME).
240 seats he won not 238

Thank you Prabhat Patnaik. Thank you Radhika. Send love to Michael.
What Indians said before Madives's elections and India's elections in year 2024:
1) Maldive's "India Out" campaign has "backfired" and Miuzzu is losing support. Maldives is begging India for tourism and money.💪
2) Modi is the "most popular Prime Minister/leader of the entire world"💪
What happens in reality, after India's election and Maldive's election:
1) Modi's party on it's own won 238 out of 543 seats. (Source: ASTHA RAJVANSHI TIME). That's not even 44% of the total. Indeed, he is the "most popular Prime Minister/leader of the entire world" with only 44% support from his people. 🤭
2) Maldives's President Miuzzu won 71 out of 93 seats (76%). Indeed, Maldive's campaign for "India Out" has backfired. 🤭
Dishonest breed.🤭
Patanaik said something few in the west know!
7:00 in and he says that half of India's people are outside capitalist production. They are peasants and artisans.
India is in a unique situation because its government seems to be trying to de-industrialize under neoliberalism *before* fully industrializing to begin with.
bingo!......back to feudalism under modi/bjp.....they have no ideas for India...😔
Few months ago, Indians were saying that Muizzu's "India Out" stance has backfired, implying that he will lose in the Maldives election of April 2024, on all social medias. Fast forward today, "Maldives President Mohamed Muizzu's party has won 71 of 93 seats in a landslide victory in parliamentary elections.".... *Landslide Victory* . Looks like winning 71 out of 93 seat is an indication that Muizzu's "India Out" stance has really "backfired"😏.
You got a Patnaik! Amazing. Would love to see Utsa on here as well.
The roof of the New Delhi Airport Terminal collapsed and killed people recently. Also, 4 bridges have collapsed in just 10 days in the eastern state of Bihar … So much for infrastructure.
Really great discussion with Prof Patnaik. Thank you for setting it up 🙏🏼
Interesting conversation. I wish to understand it nuances better. I'm am not from India, and all the acronyms used here are difficult to understand.
His analysis is always so prescient. Would love to hear him more , go into more details. Absorbing everything he has to offer as a student
Where is Michael Hudson? Haven't seen him for a while. Hope he is doing well.
He did an interview with Ben Norton earlier this week. He seems fine.
Prof.Radica ,thank you for such a very smart,wise thinker
Maldives's sovereignty over its country was 100% assured when Muizzu made good of his word and enforces "India Out". Remember the Indian debt/death trap of Nepal in the " year 2015 Nepal blockade"? Remember how Sikkim was annexed by India through a farce election/referendum after they had invaded Sikkim in year 1973?
India under the BJP economic policy - the rich get obscenely richer, and the rest stay mired in poverty, just like the recently Hindujas slave labor convictions, one of the richest families in the world, paid their servants less than what they spent on dogfood.
Dreadful. Probably fled in the dark of the night and back to the safe protection of modi.
youre both heroes of mine. opened my eyes and changed my life
Questions you need to ask yourself based on these historical facts, and think logically with an open mind:
1) If the sovereign country of Sikkim is willing to become one with |ndia in year 1975, is an invasion of Sikkim necessary in year 1973?
2) Why are there Indian troops stationed in Sikkim when the election/referendum took place and what psychological effect has it had on the voters?
3) What is meant by "Akhand Bharat"? India's expansionism policy?
Wonderful talk
Why Rajnath Singh, Gadkari, and Nadda do not see these types of videos? And understand these common sense points.
32:34...'modi has a one point plan....to do whatever the capitalist class want'.
Dr Radika Desai.

brilliant, funny and true however very very, very sad...😑
India should be ashamed of using "democracy" as a disguise for their real system of governance "facism". India 's system of governance is facism, never democracy. The 79.8% Hindu majority country, India, is never democracy. Real democracy never had a Hindu Caste System that oppresses the lower caste. Indians say that there are no caste system in India? But what are "caste related violence" and why is it still happening? What are the Musahar people and what are their dietary? Explain what are Caste Certificates and why everyone in India has to get one?
Bourgeois “democracy” is never democracy. Whatever country you live in you don’t live in a democracy.
@@nicholasszegho6768 Don't claim that you're democracy if you're not democracy, Indian. Stop being a scammer and hypocrite.
Great guest. I'm a fan of his articles. Thank you🙏🏻
Modi's ego is hurt when India was being "India out" out by Maldives. Now Bangladesh wants "India out" too. Thus, he needs some ego boosting news, true or not , it's all ok. 🤭2 points to consider by intellectuals against the face-saving propagandas from Indian bots claiming that Maldives is begging India for money/tourism. Point 1: (Before) If Muizzu needed the Indian money, why would he initiate the "India out" campaign? Point 2: (After) If he really needed the Indian money, why wouldn't he retract his stance from "India out" and change to "India in"? Think logically, think smart.

Smell the coffee ☕
As of 31 July 2019, SBM-U achieved 97.22 per cent of its target of construction of IHHL.
Community and public toilets have achieved more than their intended target. As of 31 July 2019,
107.94 per cent of the target set for public and community toilets has been achieved.
On 2nd October 2019, the 150th birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi, India celebrated the end of the first phase of the five-year Swachh Bharat Mission (SBM), The country had the remarkable achievement of providing toilet access at home to over 105 million additional rural households in just five years, which meant that over 500 million people across 630,000 villages had the opportunity to be pulled out of the practice of open defecation. This feat is something that all can be proud of, and UNICEF is pleased to be a partner in the effort.
@@TranshumanistBCI UNICEF 2014 report on sanitation said that |ndia has the largest population of people, around 597 million, practicing open defecation. 🤭. Having a hard time coping, PM Modi of |ndia launched the |ndian national toilet program, "Swachh Bharat toilet Mission", on year 2014 with the goal of ending open defecation over a period of 5 years by attempting to make 110 million toilets for 600 million |ndians. 110 million toilets do not magically appear. You need time to make. Modi in early October 2019, announced to a crowd in Ahmedabad city that |ndia is now free of open defecation with 110 million toilets built in five years and 600 million people gaining access to them. From October 2019 to March 2024, is only 3 months + 36 months + 3 months = 42 months, which is only about 3.5 years ago. |ndia has the largest population of people, around 597 million, practicing open defecation UNTIL they have toilets, which is merely 3.5 years ago. |ndia is the #1 open toilet and #1 open defecation country. Fact.
Always good coverage, thanks.
42:35, Kashmiris, if they can afford, travel days to visit loved ones who are held without trial...😔
It's very insightful. Thx you.
Excellent work as always!
35:29, China is waterfying desert and India cannot feed Indians.....under modi/bjp
In this Indian election, Modi used arrogant and vulgar language to manipulate the conflicts between divided ethnic groups, which disgusted most of the people and led to a tragic victory!
Thank you .
Revolt of the farmers didn’t prevent him from the PM seat, strangely.
india live off agriculture right?
❤❤❤❤
I think middleclass like me also rejected Modi
The middle class is disappearing all over the world. The elites just want the elite class and the peasant class now.
India is not Maldives it 140 billions
Main thing this saffron party want make india to banana republic and hindutuva.
We hope that Modi & any other government will:
create employment, growth & development for India/indians but not by being a proxy/pawn of USA
make peace with all countries especially China & Pakistan
focus only on trade - NOT on defeating Pakistan, containing/comparing with China or any other country
stand tall with Russia & China
never use religion as political tool as it disrespects/makes valueless both the religion & the person
let us remain as Indians & human beings.
we hope 🤞🏾
Looks like God just taught Modi a lesson.

This. Was expected. Too communal
India 's system of governance is facism, never democracy. You simply don't send "buttonmen" to target non voters and political opponents.
1) did a 8 x Bollywood MI6 in Qatar?
2) did a "Hardeep Singh Nijjar" in Canada?
3) did a "Nikhil Gupta" in USA?
4) did a "Constable Chetan Singh" to the non voters in India?
Constable Chetan Singh: If you want to live and vote in |ndia, I am telling you it's only Modi or Yogi......or ELSE 🤭🤐☠
5) how many more "buttonmen" has he got to "fix" his political opponents and non voters?
These facts should tell you whether the Indian voting process is fair. 🤭😅🤣😂Think logically, think independently, think with an open mind and think smart.
What is the alternative? The incongruous INDI alliance with their horrible, corrupt leaders and different views in their alliance? Such a government would destroy India and collapse quickly. The opposition needs to step up because right now Modi is by far the best option with record infra spending, record welfare spending, decreasing fiscal deficit, inflation under control, world's best performing central bank and digitalisation and modernisation of government services. Before Modi, India was in the top 5 fragile economies in the world and had lower GDP than Africa.
Lol😂😂. Which world are you living. Modi did literally destroyed economy of india through his foolish economic policies like demonitisation. High inflation especially for items like food, high youth unemployment, highest income and wealth inequality even greater than the times of British rule. India has already been in the top 5 economy by GDP ppp before even Modi came.
Spoken like a true Modibot.
@@basfinnis that's unfair, modi has pretty eyes👀.....he has to because he has no brain for running a potential game changer like India 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Ruzzkie shill channel?
56 minutes of BS. Seditious.
facts hurt less than modi/bjp failures...😒
Still, Modi won, in spite of all the attempts and interference on the part of the West, and the UK more specifically which finds Modi - let's say - disagreeable.
The corrupted Modi sides with America, otherwise he wouldn't have been elected again, again and again. Any enemies of China or Muslim is America's best friend!
GDP doesn't tell how well the people live in India...the corrupted government takes the profit away from the general public and enriched the top 3% of the population. Poverty, income inequality, human rights inequality, brain drain, medicare failure and terrible education system in India are substandard.
Do they? Or do they want India to be neolibral? Remember they invented neolibralism, aka Reaganism (America) ...aka Thatcherism (England)
All the same thing which they would obviously want India to be because then they can can come in and PRIVATIZE your state owned assets due to DEREGULATING your economic protections, all the while peeing on your upward mobility and telling you it's raining with their bs TRICKLE DOWN ECONOMICS.
That austerity- currently called neolibralism. Ruined my country, but good luck with that.
It’s the beginning of the end . The BJP is a cancer for India and should be banned
😂😂😂😂😂.....the uk loves modi, he makes wealthy richer! 🤣🤣🤣
