In 1978, Sharad Pawar became the youngest Chief Minister of Maharashtra. Sharad Pawar was in Congress at that time. After coming to power, Sharad Pawar started considering himself above the high command. At the same time Sanjay Gandhi came to Mumbai... Sanjay Gandhi used to go to Mumbai every week because he had relations with many film stars there. Before Sharad Pawar, the Chief Minister of Maharashtra used to go to the airport to receive Sanjay Gandhi on every visit. Sanjay Gandhi was very surprised when Sharad Pawar did not come to welcome him at the airport. Sanjay Gandhi went to Delhi, discussed with his mother, then Sharad Pawar was immediately called to Delhi Darbar. After that no one knew what conversation took place between Sharad Pawar and Indira Gandhi. Then as soon as Sharad Pawar was boarding the plane from Delhi to Mumbai, news was broadcast on Vividh Bharati that Prime Minister Indira Gandhi had just dismissed her own government of Maharashtra for not maintaining law and order properly.😲🫢 When Sharad Pawar landed at Mumbai airport, he came to know that he was no longer the Chief Minister.😔 Indira Gandhi imposed President's rule 35 times in 12 years and 15 times in the next 5 years from 1980 to 1984, in total President's rule was imposed 50 times.😀 Narendra Modi has not dismissed any state government in the last 10 years, but Modi is Hitler for the Congress sycophants.🤔🤔

I bow to Mr Hardee's singh Puri - such an excellent leader -i would say he is our promising leader looking forward to meeting him one day. Jai hind 🙏

Excellent interviewer, exceptional interviewee. Loved the conversation, to the point with dignity and authority befitting a minister.

There's something magical when experience speaks..

Didn't know Hardeep Puri is such a great orator he's articulate n eloquent at the same time and countering BS with facts! 🙂

When beurocrates become Ministers they shine... So happy ❤❤❤

Hardeep Puri ji is brilliant and honest

An interesting piece by Tavleen Singh, The Indian Express 21.04.2024 :- Many things have changed in India since Narendra Modi first became prime minister. But one change that has gone almost unnoticed is that a process of real decolonisation has transpired. And because of this the old, colonised ruling class has been swept away. This is a very good thing. It should have happened long, long ago. As someone who belonged to that ruling class, I consider myself well qualified to explain why this process of decolonisation was overdue and how we failed India as its ruling class. The truth is we were an effete, hopeless bunch. We spoke no Indian language well, but this did not matter to us. We were proud of speaking English well. In our drawing rooms we sneered at those who dared enter without speaking good English. And at those whose table manners were not embellished with western refinement. In short, those who fumbled with forks and knives and preferred eating with their hands and without cutlery. When we travelled to foreign lands, we made a good pretense of being Indian, but we never cared to understand what it meant to be Indian. We pretended to know everything about India’s ancient culture and civilisation, but we knew almost nothing. In the schools and colleges we attended, we learned more about western civilisation, history, and literature than about our own, so it was not totally our fault. When it came to politics and elections, we stuck loyally by the Nehru-Gandhi dynasty and its various heirs because they were people like us. We did not care that Parliament had been turned into a private members club. It was our club. Nor did we care that the Congress Party under Sonia Gandhi’s stewardship had also become a private club. It was our club. In our drawing rooms we talked endlessly of democracy and secularism and saw ourselves as ordained to protect these ideas. Then along came Narendra Modi and the earth shifted beneath our feet. He may not have been personally responsible for everything that changed but he was a vital part of the political change that happened, and this somehow became an essential element of the bigger changes that were happening. Suddenly, almost overnight, after Modi first became prime minister, we became not just powerless but irrelevant. A new breed of Indians who spoke Hindi well and English not at all started replacing us in the high offices of government, as political analysts, and anchors in TV studios, in journalism, in Bollywood movies and TV series. They were not impressed with our skills in English, and we were so impressed by how Indian they were that we tried to emulate them just to belong. Some of us have succeeded, most of us have not. Those who have not but wish to continue being relevant cling these days to Rahul and Priyanka Gandhi and hope that somehow, they will be able to defeat Modi. Some act as advisors to the current heirs of the Dynasty and fill their heads with grandiose ideas like saving the Constitution and saving democracy. But the truth is that Rahul Gandhi’s main message remains the same as it was in the last general election. This is that Modi is corrupt and that he works only for a handful of rich Indians. He steals your money, he shrieks at his political rallies, and he gives it to his rich friends. How exactly does this work? As leader of the Congress Party, he is seen, especially by foreign correspondents, as the only man who can defeat Modi. It is bad luck for him that he seems so incapable of convincing Indian voters of this, despite trying hard to prove that he is one of them. He has worked with farmers in rice fields, transported coal on bicycles with miners, listened to the woes of vegetable sellers and spent long hours with mechanics in dingy shops to show how much he cares about the ‘common man.’ So why is the common man not impressed? Could it be because these gestures come across somehow as noblesse oblige and not genuine acts of sympathy? What is it about ‘autocratic’, ‘dictatorial’ Modi that attracts ordinary Indian voters more? The answer that I got to this question on my recent travels in rural India is that people have seen changes in their lives, and they believe that these changes have happened because of Modi. These are not remarkable changes. They are simple things like roads, drinking water, electricity, and Internet services but because they were not there before, they seem remarkable. Many of these things should have happened long ago. But because we were so colonised a ruling class, we did not notice that ordinary Indians were forced to endure the worst public services. In our drawing rooms and in our entitlement, we did not care about such things because in our privileged cocoon it would have been unthinkable to go to a government hospital or a government school. Modi’s advent burst the bubble in which we lived, and the truth is that most of us have no idea why this happened. We continue to hope that he will be defeated this time and hope that the message that democracy is in danger will resonate with voters. When the results come, we are likely to be disappointed again. I met nobody in rural India who saw Modi as corrupt and autocratic. -----++---+--++--++-----

Smitha ji the first thing I noticed is you half moon bindi and the saree..... thank you for mainstreaming the culture of western coast!!

Singh saab is very knowledgeable and great orator

Smritiji doing khatakhat with that expression😂😂😂😂❤

Brilliant

Great interview. He is amazing communicator similar to all other Modi minister team members.

He is such a good orator...

Any person changing party should be made to serve as a primary booth level karyakarta for 5 years. Election contesting and holding party position should not be allowed for 5 years for any such individual. This should be part of election reforms. Should have been done decades back.

hardeep sir op

I likes Hardeep Singh Puri.

Kapil Sibal less said the better. What sort of ideology he carries. Is he anti India?

Smita madame very interesting mayank

30:03 facts!

Many from the Anu tribe,been inter-related with brihaspati(Jupiter).. Mr Cheema make videos about India topics.. Anu tribe - son of yayati. Anu - Varuna

🪷🙏ஜெய் ஸ்ரீ ராம் 🙏🪷

Mr. Hardeep Puri ji. Even if a candidate wins from 2 seats, he has to resign from one seat and cannot come to Parliament from 11.00 to 2 pm from one seat and from 2.30 pm to 6.00 pm from the other seat.

This is a very unbiased opinion coming purely from a viewer's perspective......Smita ji full maze leti h Congress aur RaGa ka😂😂😂

Smita..when can we have Sunny Leone as the guest ???

Bharat Akhand ho

First time i heard Sachin pilot. He is totally got what is required to be PM. He has common sense.

Sir ji please let people know how AK given bail Where as others who went to jail before AK including Kavitha not given bail

He should be chief minister of delhi or punjab

Y we need unlimited terms 4 MLAs MPs or party posts now? How new talents will emerge as party head or CM or PM choice from dynasty parties coz seldom political leaders stop contesting elections even after enjoying 4-5 terms as MLAs or MPs or both? Amend the constitution, abolish unlimited terms n bring fixed terms. India has enough talent 2 not just depend on a few individuals alone. How the US has survived n progressed with the US Presidents not allowed 2 run 4 White House after winning 2 terms? Does the US depend on their system or individuals 2 run their nation successfully? BCCI will drop Kohli if he fails 2 perform after a concession limit n not like dynasty parties where they r party head or CM or PM candidate as long as the Sun n the Moon exists. Jai Hind 🙏🏼🧿🤞🏼!

Maharashtra rural voters are in confusion

Subramanyan Swami is BJPA neta and seriously talking behind the back of Modiji, also says public should defeat him.

Supeer spon

Did he say 350 instead of 370?

Could Jai Hind be replaced by Jai Bharat!

I have an innocent question here, if constitution was added to make the country secular and socialist then why was the country divided in the first place. If Jinnah would have been given the mantel of PM then the country wouldn't have been divided. If only religion has rights on the country's resources then what is reason of carving west and east Pakistan out of India. Sorry Mr Gandhi I hold you and only your relatives for the division of India.

why is he not campaigning? or is he? he is lot more straightforward about explaining issues - rest, even Modi and Amit Shah - sound like slogans - but this person the way he explains matter of factly becomes crystal clear ... I wish there was these kind of talks during campaign - there are lot of negative perceptions about BJP in people's minds - if explained simply lot of people would feel more confident about voting for BJP

Mr.Puri ji bring petrol and diesel under GST plz

KASPOROV MOVE 😂😂😂😂😂

" MASTER STROKE " IS IT NOT A BIG JOKE ? IF HE WINS SO WHAT ? LAST TIME HE WAS AN MP SO ALSO THIS TIME .

Sir, issue is equally very important that is our '*RELIGIOUS ID*, We, HINDUS are 'minority' Globally, there's no HINDU STATE/COUNTRY Globally, we are gradually becoming a 'Shrinking Nation', like Jain, Parshi's. *INDIA WAS DEVIDED ON THE BASIS OF RELIGION (Nehru vs Jinnah) on 1947. *I would request you to go through & COMPARE then HINDU POPULATION IN W.PAKISTHAN & EAST PAKISTHAN AND TODAY. ALSO JUST GO THROUGH & COMPARE THE MUSLIM POPULATION IN INDIA 1947 & 2024 ( IT IS MORE SIGNIFICANT IN WEST BENGAL WHERE MUSLIM POPULATION GROWTH HAS CROSSED ALL RECORDS. NOW HINDU POPULATION IN E. PAKISTHAN (NOW BANGLADESH) HAS SHRIKED TO ALMOST 04% AGAINST 18.4% ON 1970)* *ABOUT BSS - YOU WON'T FEEL OTHERWISE WHEN MUSLIM RELIGIOUS LEADERS PLEEDS FOR MUSLIM VOTE, WHAT'S THE WAY TO CHECK OUR RELIGIOUS ID?

Jobs generated since 1999 Onwards-Data source- World Bank & Labour Ministry GOI(EPFO) Workforce in India in 1999---36.33 cr Workforce in India in 2004---45.91cr Workforce in India in 2014---46 .96 cr Workforce in India in 2023 -59.37 cr Job generated by PM Vajpayee in 6 years--9.6 cr or 160 Lakh every year Jobs generated by PM Man Mohan Singh in 10 years--1.0 cr or 10 Lakh per year Jobs generated by PM Modi in 9 years--12.4 cr or 136 Lakh per year Why so much discussion about jobs without fact ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Micro Entrepreneurship in Bharat - Mudra scheme Beneficiaries -43 crore Loan disbursed --23.5 Lakh crore ($295 billion) -Mudra loan NPA-2.7%. -Bharat monthly wage employee-24%of total workforce (59.37 crore)

If he is really so great he must not utter about Priyanka,,Italy etc, it dilutes the calibre if exists

All family based political parties in India be scrapped.

Best classical sanghi of this decade spotted 😅😅

Cut that last clip of neerja choudhary

" Till the Cows come home " Is now a sad commentary with the Muslim population growth by about 40% compared to near zero percent growth of Hindus in the same period in India. All the Cow smuggling to Bangladesh Mamta Bano Mookerji and her muslim cohorts are involved in and added Cow fat in Indian Ghee , fat that is retrieved after Cow slaughter. First , the Cows need to be allowed to live to come home.

Mr.Puri should have been prime minister as well of Bharat

Loved n enjoyed

❌❎✊ANl ❤️🇮🇳🙎☑️

Bcci chairman

39:00 onwards slap on dhruv rathee foolish claims and bais

I like BJP but if Hardeep Puri is saying that Brijbhushan didn't get a ticket then he should also explain why Brijbhushan's son got the ticket in place of Brijbhushan. Isn't that parivaarvad? Tell us his accomplishments so we know that he earned that seat.

akinator

Elections mein overtime kar rahe hain Madam 😅
