Swapanda was one of the greatest right wing intellectual many non hindi speaking Indians like me looked up to during the early days of cable television in India. His defence of Hindu interests in the hostile studios of Roy's NDTV and Rajdeep's cnn ibn were stuff of legends. Thank you Swapan da for inspiring an entire generation. From Kerala with love
Yes . From Andhra Pradesh.👍
Totally agree with you
very well said! I hope Swapan da a long and healthy life so that he can continue providing Intellectual rigor to the resurgent Hindu movement in India.
We are all Hindus and we all are better today because of this realisation.
How could you claim that? Are there only hindus in India.?
Super Statement "during Congress times of past, You have to forget being a Hindu, Now we can be a proud Hindu at least for the next 20 years... Hope Pappu & co dont come back to power.
Not for next 20 years But centuries
Exactly, just look young Hindus nowadays they don't shy away from Raksha Sutra, Tilak, going to temples, etc. I think BJP was best thing that happened to Hindu.
BJP is not against Muslim , BJP only against political ISLAM . Hindus those who hate BJP , should understand this subtle difference. Congress and other pollical parties pander political Islam for vote bank. Due to pollical Islam partition of India happened, due to political Islam Hindus in Pakistan, Bangladesh are reducing in numbers drastically due to forced conversion. Due to political Islam , still some Indian Muslims are identified themselves to outside Islamic forces. See the passion , against Isreal but mum on China persecution of its Muslims.
Hinduism is not against anybody. We are only against anybody who are against us. We are People who respect all other Religions and Gods. I bow down before Allah, I pray to Jesus. We Hindus have no problem with Religions, We believe all Religions are Valid and Truth.
Very well analysed. Muslims, it's better you join the mainstream. Be Indian
Someone who has read quran,would know that Isl...is political in its nature !!
You are blaming everything on Islam, don't justify your bjp support by saying this, India's partition is caused by equal participation of communal forces, what about caa act, ain't the political Hinduism the root cause of all such problems you wrote here
@@asifrao6560 Buddhists vs muslims in srilanka and Myanmar Jews vs muslims in isreal Christains vs muslims in Europe and Middle East Hindus /Jains vs muslims in India Yajidis vs muslims in Iraq Shia vs sunni in middle east....!!
Barkha, Shekhar Gupta, Prannoy Roy, Rajdeep Sardesai and his wife have never understood Hindus or BJP because they see everything from the lens of Congress
Not congress but leftist.. communist.
I think Shekhar Gupta did. I have seen him praise the govt when they tried to do the right thing. I think hes the most centerist reporter out there.
Again don't use the term "Babri Masjid" it is not legally accurate. The legally accurate term is MASJID-e-JANMASTHAN! The first FIR was registered in 1858 (against 15-20 Nihang Sikhs from Punjab, who had occupied the masjid and conducted a Havan for Sri Rama & Guru Gobind Singh; they even wrote with coal pieces RAM on the walls of the masjid) by the Mutwali of the Masjid-e-Janmasthan! Whose Janma????
I agree. @@adityadeshmukh6426
Shekar guptha is ok you can’t put him together with pranoy and bhurkha
Some one needs to tell Burkha Dutt that population of 20 crores is not minority anywhere in the world..!!! Anyways Uniform Civil code will soon take out this so called minority victim card forever 🎉🎉
Not 20, 40 crores.
❤❤❤❤😂😂😂😂
She won’t give up because only that sustains the SICKularist , victim card holding fake narrative of her and her Lootians gang.
Everything’s going right for our country…including Barkha! Now we are truly, finally in Amrit Kaal… thank God!
If you think she has changed you're mistaken. She has just changed her tone soft to do soft propoganda in a subtle way. People like her can never change
Watch one of her videos a week or so ago.. her fangs were evident when talking to a BJP spokesperson., she showed her disdain and was looking down at him .. on the contrary very polite with Congress spokesperson.. it was regarding declining the Ram Janmabhoomi investigation..
ikr ,,, muh se baat le liya... @@Abhishek-ef2er
Did you even see the full interview?!
Hear them when they are talking over Coffee in Khan Market at Delhi.
From the time the Kar sevaks told Ram Lala hum aayenge bhavya mandir banayenge to the current times we should consider ourselves lucky to see this happening in our lifetime. A tear rolled down my eye when Swapan ji told about the chant of the Kar Seveks.
I am extremely proud to witness this i used to consider it just like a communal issue but actually it's a civilization issue...heard menakshi jain, hari & vishnu jain the details they provided explain what level of injustice was casted over sanatani yet they fought & fought & fought for their faith & culture even when the media, politicians, academia, influential people's & an assertive aggressive community was against them.. they stood their ground without any fear of personal loss of wealth, family & self.... Massive respect to those fighters 🙏🏽
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Political Abrahamic Faiths can only be successfully challenged by political Hinduism.
Modi is the best PM ever India had
This man has said what was in almost every Hindu's hearts who supported BJP.
Modi has done so very well for India as no other Prime Ministers of India as done . Modi is a PM should govern India as long as possible. He is the GREATEST MAN for India
This guy is so accurate about how we feel ❤
These leftists once argued that the ASI report was wrong and there was no Hindu temple before Masjid but the courts came for the rescue of Hindus and their efforts were ruined ,in real fact every Hindu feel Ram temple ceremony as a pride event which gives confidence and new hope,by cherishing this justice their vision will get expanded
Swapanbabu, just fantastic. You speak for most of us
She also belongs to Khan Market gang, is n’t it ? In my opinion, she is in her rainy days! She is pseudo secularist and now jobless!!! Everybody becomes fused bulb when we retired in our life time.
Barkha is the self-employed, yet jobless
Yes she was and us part of khan market gang...but slowly distancing ...old habits fie hard
No more funding from Islsmic/Vatican/China gang. So distancing herself
Jiski laathi, uski bhains 😂
I Even remember a article written by supan das Gupta in The Hindu newspaper in September 2012 about projecting modi as pm candidate in the title' a sacrifice BJP cannot afford, supporting modi as pm
When every antibjp political parties are prominorities and anti-hindu in their ideology Hindus are proud that there is one party the bjp which is prohindu but not antiminority.
If there is one party which is doing more harm to Hinduism is the BJP ! .... Think ! .... 🇮🇳 ....
@@41ankitt Not really. There's no anti-hindu party like the Con-gress. Con-gress has been responsible for all the problems that Hindus face in India
@@41ankitt make me think? will ya. you dont have any argument you just wanna put words into someones mouth. i see you are not the intellectual type
Yes but in a long term. @@41ankitt

Swapan Das Gupta, all power to you. Keep writing, Keep talking and relating with your ideas. Your mind is like a fertile tract of land; fertile, productive and beneficial to Bharat. Amidst a sea of losers whose only mantra is on how to discredit Modi. I am so proud of what Bharat has achieved since 2014 and continuing. Please keep providing us with your amazing insights to propel and inspire us as we move FORWARD. JAI BHARAT!
Barkha saying she being neutral is the most funny thing…. She should go back and check her we the people shows again
Her desperate position is hilarious, but then she’s gasping for her relevance 😃
Next step is kashi and mathura .... 😅
🙏🙏🙏
Nobody can be as straight as swapan da! Kya suna dala hai Barkha ko! Her whole notorious media life and her kands flashed in front of her in 1 min. And was shamed fantastically! Good job swapan da! 😅😅😅😂😂😂🙏🙏🙏
Dear Barkha, You can't ignore the positive changes in the last 10 years of Modi Era. You are, of course, intelligent, but you need to introspect yourself. India need more 15 years of Modicracy type of democracy if we want to outshine like "Golden Bird". I hope you will start supporting him as I am admirer of your personality.
Bakta can’t but now she has decided there is no choice but flow along the tide He He !
@@chitrareddi7121 now she is surviving on youtube revenues hence flowing with the tide that's all she is the same vulture and will never change
Why does Barkha justify Muslim extension by quoting Hindu extremism. Hindu extremism is rare and not something most Hindus can relate to. Acknowledge where there’s fault. Hindus don’t run away from saying yes there are those that are extreme and we don’t like that.
Fall of Barkha Dutt is unimaginable. From being the top mainstream journo to irrelevant youtube journo.
15 lakh subscribers is not irrelevant
@@Raut-warrior Thats something which a normal youtuber gets
@@Raut-warrior Look at the view count ... It reveals something else
Kudos to her that she came out of that phase. Her programs in new avatars have depth and enriching content. Good to watch.👍
Would agree to @skagwl
Always good to listen to Sapan.
Yes... He is quite unique in BJPs repertoire.
मुस्लिम की आदत है रुठे रहना पूरी दुनिया मे, दुसरे की चीजें ले लेना, हिंसा करना पूरी दुनिया मे देखेंगे हिंदू नही करता, सारी दुनिया मे मुस्लिम जाकर कानून को नही मानते।
Agree with it. They want to lead, they want to be in majority
She looks so sad when Swapan Dasgupta says BJP is coming back for the third term. Means more time in wilderness
Swapan was outstanding in warding off witch Barkha !
Modi is the true Son of Bharat.Once he is long gone I guarantee you there will be temples of him.We are fortunate to be alive in this era.
Definitely 👍
Mandir nirman se Rashtra Nirman.jaihind Jai Shree Ram
Like opposition the left media & intellectuals also miss the bus, their days are gone.
She says "where is the resistance...(to bjp today.).?" aska Madam Barkha... 😅.is she living in this world
Really appreciate the fact that Ms. Barkha is trying to open up to a differing world view. Excellent conversation and extremely impressive guest! Great watch!
He is right, Mandir is coming in the backdrop of so many achievements... 370, Tripal Talaq, Vaccine, economic stability etc.
I am not great admirer of Barkha but this is her best interview which is unbiased and balance where she is not pushing her own personal preference which is really surprising.
No mate her line of questioning is pro muslim just as she is a congress bakht. Leopard cannot change it's spots.
Evn Mojo has to cover Ram templ for sake of viewwership.
Acche din 😊
His praise for Amit Shah 🔥@20:45 from @53:23 press conference Annamalai @43:20
We Hindus say - "Sarvey Janaha Sikhino Bhavantu." (Translation - May all the People of the World live in Peace and Happiness) Hindus have never been in War with any Religion, We don't have a equivalent of Crusades or Jihad. We respect all Gods Whether it is Mahaveer, Buddha, Allah, Wahe Guru or Jesus. Those Hindus who insult any Religion or God, Shame on them, They don't represent Hinduism.
All but Mohammed’s puppet Allah.
But m o h d. called u caafir Do u still respect him?

Then you did not understand Sanathana dharma at all. The dharma respects the truth, not any crap they face knowing that it will someday cause destruction. Sanathana dharma is tolerant of those who follow adharmic ways of preaching as long as they don't touch our integrity. That's the part of "Ahimsa paramo dharmah", while actively participating in dharmic wars when it is compromised as stated by "Dharma himsa tathaiva cha". The respect should be reciprocated. When it doesn't not just Sanathanis but no other religions should become passive. It is any dharma's first right to stay alive and the sense of respect should not question its own existence. There is nothing more idiotic than giving respect thats not reciprocate. As simple as that.
BJP ka agenda 2019 men poorn nahim hua to Ayodhya ka Ram Mandir Nirmaan ka agenda BJP ne poorn nahim kiya karke vipaksh ne aarop lagaaya tha. Ab Mandir ka nirmaan poorn karke Bhagawaan ka moirti men yajn mantrom dwara praan aur shakti ko aahwaan kar raha hai aur tent se Bhagawaan pucca makaan men pratishthit ho raha hai jaisa Bharat ka lakhom sabse gariib se gariib vyaktiyom ko pucca makkaan milgaya ho. Utna aanand ke saath Bhagawan pucca mandir men pratishthit ho raha hai. Rashtr khush hai saheb.
I am Tibeten but India is be Indian we related to ancient India before Muslim invasion we all should proud our past .
I liked Sapan Das Gupta for his ability to serenely beat the sh.t out of bots like Barkha. Aaj bhi unhone bhigo bhigo ke Barkha ko itna mara hai ki bechari dard bhi express nahi kar paayee. Ek ek reply dhyaan se suno, samajh aa jayega. For Barkha, be ijjati to utni hi feel hoti hai ….. jitni aap maano….. right??? Bhai majha aa gaya. 🙏😂😜
Ayodhya toh jhaki hai Kashi Mathura baki hai 😅
Super! Dasguptaji is at his best as always.
It's always a delight to listen to Mr Swapan Dasgupta. Mojo should invite him more to the show to know his views. Thanks Barkha.
Completely agree to your ideas sir respect for you
Barkha 's face 😅 on 370 . Her hubby is a KM . Maza aa gaya 😅😅
Is she married? To whom?
AFTER THE MANDIR, DEVELOPMENT, DEVELOPMENT AND DEVELOPMENT. HEAD INDIA TOWARDS BECOMING A 10 TRILLIUN ECONOMY.
Ms Dutt, the BJP government is trying very hard to assuage the misguided fears of some in the Muslim community. The onus is on the Muslims themselves to INTEGRATE themselves into INDIAN, aka Hindu, society. They cannot continue to be exclusive as currently obtained. If they want to be exclusive, there are the convenient neighbors to their immediate East and the West. They have so many choices in India (only).
Bjp is trying 'very hard' ? What it did to allay the fear in Muslims? And india is not Hindu society keep it in mind, it is mix up of diverse backgrounds, if you think that east and west sides are convenient then buy the shelter for Muslims there first
@@asifrao6560bro I think first you should reply in the comment where you'd replied but now you should complete the debate yk what I think muslims in Bharat will never change their attitude and if they want to be descendants of Mughals or islamic invaders so I'll tell you mark my word yes we were colonized by islamic invaders because at that we had lots of divide in ourselves after 50 you know what it's to be even more worse for you yk what before things get more dirty you guys should realise and change attitude and. Yk what it's just a matter of time mark my words see you soon...
@@asifrao6560 You got your country. But you decided to stay back. Now deal with it. Or leave.
@@PanakaluPoonakam you too follow the same or leave
@@abhisheksoni4576 I think people like you will make it worse for the countrymen, a d by the way what do you mean by Mark my words
Not sure why Barkha feels that if there is no Muslim MP, BJP doesnot care for Muslims?? what is this logic??? Can you explain Barkha???
Just as expected, Barkha very subtly steered the conversation towards her favourite agenda......Muslim problems! Basically, human nature never changes no matter how much one tries! Her obsession with Muslim appeasement is phenomenal. 😂😂
Don't know why,, whenever i see barkha dutt i remember her reporting/justification of genocide of kashmiri pandits.., reporting of 26/11.. Reporting of kargil war,, Reporting of an injured terrorist and the question of why did u do this,,,
Same same same
Mr. Pawan & now Swapan Dass, I can't thank you enough Barkha❤🎉
This should also be available as a podcast .
If Muslims generally don’t join BJP Party on the basis of their perceived Hindumisia, the BJP can’t give ticket to them to be their candidates. No point in agonizing about the low number of Muslim MPs in the parliament when such a condition prevails! There is no rule saying that BJP does not permit Muslims to be their Party members! Choice is for Muslims to consider if they want to be inclusive!
Jai Bharat! Jai Shree Ram 🎉
UPA era rockstar. Now jobless.
Sbko khud k jaisa smjha h kya
Oh man...just like Barkha you need Padmasri then. She is jobless protecting people like you @anty2105😅
Glad to see Lutyens meltdown every day
What do you mean ‘what comes after Ram Mandir’. It’s only the first among 40000 MANDIRS. If you think the beginning is the crescendo, where we can go from here is beyond anybody’s imagination.
Barkha rajdeep gang sinking 😂.....these are some of the very unfortunate anti Hindu, anti India gang of people whose future seems dark now
They hv made fortunes during cong era...they will survive and if time comes they will move to centre right...m already seeing these signs in bharkha
Finding mojo in Ayodhya movement. Well said Swapan Da.
In India there is two types of muslims. One is Pakistanis other is Indian muslims. Defination of Pakistan:- we are muslims. We are different from Hindus culturally, ethnically and our language is different. Our tradition and practice is very different. Arabs, kazak and Turks are our forefathers and we have no relation with Hindus. Idea of Pakistan lives in the mind of 90% muslims. That's why muslims condition is like Pakistan in India. period
Exactly Pakistan is an idea not a geographic entity. More than 80% of "green boys" are Non Resident Pakistanis living in India
In fact in India there are two types of people, those who are hindus and those who were hindus. Rest are migrants.
All of them should've been kicked out in 1947, well it seems historic blunders will be corrected by 2047. It took us a whole century to realise that this traitor Quan are just Pakistanis who never left.
Swapan Das ji, Pranam. Always great to listen to you. Its a matter of belief system and the choice of civilisation we want to pursue, and it should motivate us towards creating such a society by constantly reforming it.
Barkha, what you did in your journalism has created the attitude towards you. You forget that and expect the same to continue. How long one will tolerate. You saw their limits So you became history.
Stop hating Modiji and BJP. It doesn’t make any difference to Nationals. People like you create fear in minds of Minorities.
Bharat should always be ruled by Bharatiya dharma. That's the fight against Islamic and Christian supremacist politics.
😊 Nicely phrased. Bharatiya Dharma. I think BJP will use this word to make a transition from Hindu word to Bharatiya.
Since most of my time spent in different countries, Muslims with their family to stay few weeks in Islamic countries like Pakistan, Kuwait and then compare the conditions of Muslims with India. I think that will open up their eyes that how lucky and comfortable they are!
Refugees suffered immensely after partition and this was witnessed by their children struggling for bare necessities - roti, kapada aur makan, now they are educated, well off but very angry with the congress and liberals. They also witnessed exodus of Kashmiri pandits and appeasement of Muslims by congress and other parties. So it is awakening of Hindus who have been suppressed for centuries. Hindus have come to understand Islam, its history, Gajawa hind, pan Islam, Muslim brotherhood, jihad, sir tan se juda, forced conversion, Waqt board etc all this does not fit in their ideology. Still they don’t hate Muslims and don’t want to harm them.This division is made deeper by media and some politicians.
Swapan Dasgupta has brilliantly replied ti all the questions put up by Barkha Dutt.
Argument of Modi against dynasts is not at all that a politician's son or daughter cannot be part of BJP. His issue with dynastic politics is when sons or daughters consider it their sole right to take on the mantle of helming their papas chairs like Rahul, Akhilesh, Badals, BRS, Stalin, Abdullahs etc
Burkha doesn't understand one simple thing. The leaders she mentioned as the consensus builders and gracious enough to talk to the people across the aisle are not the ones who were on the ground. The current crop of leaders are largely the ground workers who faced the brunt of an ecosystem that served a party and ideology. They know the true face of the so-called Indian liberals.
Barka has to change, as India has changed and united along with Ram.
Leopards don't change their spots
How difficult it is for Barkha to digest ,Mr Dasgupta to digest.
even now you dont realize the significance of Ayodhya and think of it as only a Temple. It is a liberation of our bondage from the past and somebody who has delivered that for us will forever be as equal almost as to Shri Hanuman.
Thank you for an excellent conversation! Enjoyed it ! More power to you!
Swapan dasgupta is a genius , an apostle of growth, harbinger of progress and wisdom, an orator par excellence, ace statesman ,an inimitable personality a colossus , we are blessed to have you Sir
Jai Shree Ram
Wow..... what a civil/polite way of showing a leftist a mirror rightly. Great SwapanDa. Thank you.
👏👏👏
Swapanji Problem is you people are too diplomatic. Pls call spade a spade. For a long time people fed-up with fence sitting arguments. When all Hindus don't vote enblock why it happens only with Muslims.
Dear Barkha, if Modi says breathing is mandatory for living... will you stop breathing in order to oppose him? Why do I think that you would?
Barkha - your interviews are, this especially, is brilliant. It helps that you have an intelligent & articulate individual in Mr Swapan Dasgupta across the table. I so thirst for a civil debate, and this one hits the mark. You are respectful, persistent, non-combative, and unlike a host of your colleagues, not preachy or opinionated. Keep it on, lady. I am not on the BJP camp for sure, but this interview gives a fresh perspective to a whole bunch of issues & viewpoints that may not sway but, but helps me respect the other side. Bravo!
THE GREAT PM MODI HAS LIFTED INDIAN FROM THROUGH OUT THE WORLD. THANK YOU SIR.
Barkha's expression @18.05 as I knew what Swapan would say and he did.
What a wonderful interview by Das Guptaji .it's reassuring to see BD one could say almost a little enlightened about what indians want in the 21st century except for a small disruptive element from a few islamists mind set in the name of religion are held bent to snuff the progress of BHARAT. JAI SHREE RAM
Modi is righteously adding credibility to become Temple Pujari, after his retirement...
Excellent news. You too must continue mastering the intricacies of azaan and hallelujah for your own emotional satisfaction.
@@PS-ej2xn You are getting agitated as if temple pujari is a bad thing.. hahah
@@lavankmuralidharan3663Mastering not only Azan and hallelujah, but also street side cheap psychology! EVR's children from his own daughter are doing a lovely job! 👍
@lavankmuralidharan3663 the way you put it is demeaning. If I say, if your parents are aware that they will produce you, they would never have sex. Is this not demeaning to you?
Dear Swapan I fully agree with you that we need to concentrate on education from 2024 very seriously. Please advise the PM.
Its all whats called "civilizational memory" which means somethings will echo through time and be remembered by generations way down the line. Ours is the 20th generation after the invaders destroyed the temple, if it was not us, next generation would have built it.
Always a delight to hear his thoughts!
'The college both of us attended' at 12:55 was my favorite part of this conversation :D
Good find. I agree
At last Barkha is charging and doing what a honest journalist should do.... Respect
Mr Dasgupta wonderfully expounded every question Barkha put before him,he is a great analyst of situations.
Whata fascinating conversation. Kudos to Barkha and Swapan da. I believe all trolls, IT cells of both sides, should watch this.
This discussion, I must agree, is one of the most indepth analysis by SD. Great interview.
One of the best conversations I heard lately
An intellectual conversation which was conducted very informally and worthy of watching!!
I am a BJP supporter but I like this channel. I nowadays admire Barkha (but same is not the case with the likes of Ravish and that other guy).
Apart from the interviewer,everything was right and excellent

As a Bengali Hindu Brahmin who is enthusiastic about Hinduttva and all Sanatani Hindu traditions and customs and specially Hindu rituals , I do not endorse enforced vegetarianism ..I definitely do not support and rather I feel detested about consumption of beef and pork by any Hindus or who are from the larger Hindu pantheon. . We Bengalis surely love consuming fish and chicken , goat and ducks. ..I see nothing wrong in it ...
