The young bjp lady, when asked about pm's recent speech said muslims should be asked why they are laging behind in progress inspite of the resources being allocated to them, yet when asked the very same question about South tax payers money being wasted in states like up and Bihar, says it's allocation of resources to those who need it! Where is the logic? 🤣 😂

4 minutes of intro. Goodness me.. it is annoying. Please stop adding such long intros. It makes no sense. I always skip to the beginning of the video.

Young BJP Lady here talked about conditions of UP and Bihar, said their condition is very bad etc etc so we (rich states) need to be responsible about them, but the same argument could be extended to castes which are deprived from historic times, which is responsibility of dominant richer caste. The variation of distribution of wealth statewise and caste is real, and arguments and base reason is the same

BJP SpokePerson:" I am too small to comment on Modi's remark on wealth distribution, more children community and mangalsutra...." Hat's off to your smallness Lady.. Hat's off...

भाजपा का प्राणतत्व हिन्दू नही है बल्कि मुस्लिम है अगर मुस्लिम ना होता तो भाजपा का अस्तित्व भी नहीं होता और ना भाजपा सत्ता मे होती ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

I can't understand why this fellow man finding faults of Congress only. Many many more things are to be criticised for BJP. He is totally silent on that. He is totally biased. If you are neutral, you as should be critical of all.

No matter what and how she tries to justify the hate speech of the PM, that's unjustifiable in a sane society!

Modi's BJP is the BJP's doom. The anti-incumbency wave will shred their ego to bits. And kudos to Rahul Gandhi and co. for not deviating from issues that actually matter.

Annamalai is seen as a joke in TN. Don't give him more importance than he really has in TN. It's the godi media narrative, surreal

When Manmohan Singh made the statement in 2006, we didn't have such a polarised society. Today everything is seen on religious basis. Pooja was good at interviewing

It is a disappointment to see Manisha and Pooja didn't have a counter argument against the BJP spokesperson. You just gave the stage to normalise Modi's hate... speech.

The male guest in the beginning said I am not a fan of Modi and then defended everything that Modi does including his communal bigotry.

This man has probably been sidelined by Congress. He is so harping on the same point. Really stressful.

Claiming that what Modi and BJP are doing is smart and we'll thought of politics is just unacceptable to me .Devisive politics will destroy our country as the old saying goes "A house divided against it self can't stand."

Giving money to Gulbarga there is real infrastructure development and human capital development, but the money given to Uttar Pradesh,Bihar is like throwing money in toilet and flushing it.the corrupt politicians and gangsters gobbling up and see no education,no development,no women empowerment..just more communalism,building temples and unwanted metros,so no I d rather that money go in building hospitals or roads in rural Karnataka.

It’s unfair to give a platform to BJP without having an opposition voice. And then blame Congress as your favourite topic.

I am not a newslaudry spokesperson but to all those who are blaming Manisha for not pushing back against the BJP and JDS spokesperson, I would just like to say that newslaudry is also a media outlet and they are not only critiquing other media outlets but also practicing journalism and sometimes interviews like these are an eye opener with respect to understanding the mind set of people who support different political ideologies. Pushing back, cross questioning is good on a TV panel but this is clearly an attempt to gauge the mood of the nation. A pushback would be futile. So please have an open mind and appreciate that this kind of engagement is still important!

Bjp peak has been in 2019 elections from here on u will shrinking you seats

This was a very interesting conversation. The biggest takeaway I got from this was the failure of media. A lot of time was spent discussing the merits of setting the political narrative by playing to the emotions of people while not focusing on the facts. This is the place where the media should have picked up educating the lay person but unfortunately they have completely failed the nation. One example which stood out where Sugata said congress doing fact checking instead of setting the narrative felt a bit disingenuous when you factor in the huge media propaganda campaign is being led everyday. Surabhi being the BJP spokeperson was excellent at skirting the actual questions and I feel even in a conversation the panelists could have done a better job at countering them.

Great conversation ❤ will done Manisha … we need to like this 😊

I am from Tamil Nadu and saying that the North-South divide is a Congress gambit is baseless. It is very real and has been felt in TN almost since the beginning. This has become more marked since 2014 as we have felt BJP's anti-Tamil bias.

This is the first time I could listen to someone from BJP patiently without rolling my eyes in haste. I hope BJP includes more people like her in the party who go beyond the mandir masjid politics and talk about development and real local issues.

As an Maharashtrian I see the North South division is real, nobody can deny this.

Appeasement of few to dissatify remaining will not work ! Time for true secularism.. equality for all ! UCC is the answer 👍

If you all are going to support BJP and call them for interviews, then you will lose support of paid subscribers. Why do we need another channel that calls BJP speakers?

Shorten the intros or put it in the end as a "TLDR", few seconds shy of a 4 min intro FFS

Such a calm and sensible conversation.

Lol !! I get it that the BJP spokesperson in the video defending all the filth said n done by modi without an inch of remorse. but the guy speaking in this video is defending Modi more shamelessly than her. why don't u guys label him as a BJP/JDS spokesperson too? he's truly living in his own 'la la land' without an idea of what's happening in the outside world. and what's wrong with you guys?! what the heck is that Thumbnail ? I thought it was some godi channel before looking at your channel name.

The only video of NL which I skipped😔 Highly disappointing though I'm a loyalist of your channel!

Thanks

This unfortunately turned into a one-sided cushioning of the incumbent BJP government. The whataboutery was inadequately challenged and the two BJP spokespersons were given a free run. (I know the second one was labelled differently but come on now.)

Outstanding discussion hats off to Manisha n team, being a BJP voter from Vajpayee era.. I consume all sides, @manisha, is someone who in the platform is most balanced and calls out both. I also criticise bjp, part of my right !! But larger picture we need Modi

Newslaundry it’s time to give up Congress bashing. I get that you need to appear balanced and all ,but the INC is doing a good job and being led ably. There’s nothing to be done about incidents like Indore and Surat! No party is funding you! So what’s your problem!!???

Nice video, thanks for the information I wish the team of News Laundry all the best for future endeavours.... all the love to you guys ❤

First time I am seeing a BJP spokesperson on Newslaundry 😂

Why is Manish quiet and agreeing to everything the BJP supporters say?

Great discussion

To the BJP spokesperson, Manmohan Singh made those remarks in 2006. He won the elections again in 2009. We had two more general elections since then, so how long are we going to bring that up and twist it each time during elections?

Too little, too late. Thats all my feedback, as I am sure that there are lot more viewers from south and probably thinking to vote between the evil and the devil.

Every issue matters because it exists.

Manisha should has said that comparing anyone to Modi, will be an insult to the other person. After all no one can fall as low as Modi.

Very good conversation with no shouting nor biased opinions. Wish this was done a month earlier. More and more of these balanced conversations should happen. Surabhi, your 52% reference is correct which is BJPs KA vote share in 2019 loksabha elections. One thing wasn’t brought out in balanced way is that with Modi direct target of Muslims. Nobody talked about CONG appeasement politics which is done in blatant way. Specifically, Siddaramaiah and DKS dangerous statements appeasing Muslims.

a interaction of contrasta ..alows us to understand our way .keep it up.

At 46:00 I can understand the spokesperson would defend anything. But this is no joke for Mr. Sugata to laugh it off. I mean come on - a speech meant to appeal to baser emotions of human beings including 'the fear of others' is a master class in political communication. Then Mr Sugata goes on to add 'why Congress sucks'. when probed by Pooja mam about whose fault is it says 'thats not our job' WOW!. What's your job than 'good sir' to pass off devious LIES as genius masterstrokes. I say let them win everything that they want to win and let their genuineness be inscribed in every stone pillar followed by the suffix 'Congress sucks' but all of this at what cost. Will this divisiveness end once they win everything then let them win everything but for god's sake don't analyse things without any regard for norms that you end up saying everything is cool if they win. it's like saying they are right because they are winning. Journalism should also be about pointing out ideals not saying it's right because it's normal. We are here because of this 'Indian expressisation' of journalism where one is trying to be objective at the cost of 'being right and decent'. To be generous and welcoming of 'the other side' is good and welcome as long as one assumes that another person is engaging in a 'good faith argument' and not pass off lies with a villainous laugh.. with each agreeable laugh like this rather than to object ( 46:07) we are incurring massive debt on truth .. and God knows if we now even care about truth.. Mr Sugata may not; he would rather be objective than ideal .. good for him.. but what about the rest of non-DEFEATIST NON-CYNICAL INDIA that is the question we need to ask our conscience. PS- sorry, just to clarify this is not pointed out at news laundry but I guess I was really affected by non-chalantness of that laugh on a lie by Mr. Sugata. Maybe it is just a social laugh and symbolises nothing. But maybe it does. I don't know.

Geert Wilders

I can't fund you as of now but make this reach others.

That respected old lady is completely out of touch of common man ...she has no idea of what ground realities are ... Instead was telling what she feels her perspectives are in the name of voters ... Her politics was stuck in the early 2000

The best and most hilarious part of this whole video was The disclaimer: Non sponsored news Definitely wholly sponsored 😂

Congress will win south will be bjp free south India

Interesting conversation

If he does wrong, we have to allow him to do what a shittttt. You read your book on your own.....

Would love to hear an update after the Revanna scandal hit the news cycle

That person dint answer questions he puts his agenda and takes more time also...

I.N.D.I. Alliance and minority religious leaders in the South India have been conducting seminars, and meetings, in the name of "CUTTING SOUTH"

I understand the importance of this interview but its too exhausting to watch people in the panel getting stuffs wrong propagating things with half truths especially about tamil nadu. I am from tn and I didnt like it when the man in the panel called the dravidian ideology as propaganda.

Good and interesting discussion. And very articulate speakers. But as expected, this / such discussions are for Urban analysts/ arm chair experts . Very ordinary people , those in rural areas have their iwn sources of information, local / sub local / tehsil level media sources . The so called Regional/ National media sources / houses , every where cater to niche / urban people / rural elites . They face intense competition from social media / independent bloggers and Vloggers and hence many top journalists may be finding themselves irrelevant or unemployed or being forced to open their KZfaq channels , with varying results . But good discussion nevertheless, from the South .

And News laundry is sitting a listening 😢to the liars .

This gentleman very swiftly changes the topic when there's an attack on BJP, then says I'm not a supporter of Modi or the BJP.

What is the impact of the scandal involving Deva Gowda's family? Given the composition of panel, it's wiae to post this after voting. Regarding BJP vis-a-vis South, Chandrababu Naidu refusing to use even Modi's photo and moreover he promises reservations for Muslims. It's a myth that Narendra Modi is a good communicator.

This whole panel is a joke I think these clowns are bjp in heart but present to be neutral. U can never understand south. Just a boring show

Comment from.kashmir❤❤❤

The precap was totally unnecessary. We need to stop this please. Thanks.

I am surprised. The host has lost the sarcasm towards Modi and BJP. What has changed in NewsLaundry.

Perhaps people didn't read the Manmohan's written paragraph about having a right into the countrie's wealth. He wrote the all backward jatis including SC , ST, and Muslim have a right into the wealth of this country.

❤❤❤❤❤

"India" oh... "Bharath"

When the panelists say north and south divide is made up my response is that every difference is made up. Muslim hindu, hindi kannada. These are all made up difference.

Masallah

The state financial share divide is going to become more once the representation from the states are going to be revised. We will have less representatives from the southern states because of the population divide. That's what the southern states are opposing.

Are bhai sahab. Congress is not knew, They have track record and current p0arty accepts not do0ing anything, What is your problem?

He's not hugged by international leaders, he falls on them and gives puppies and jhuppies.

RSS/BJP does not want to relieve Shudra from its slavery. Hence opposing cast census! Shudra from the Southern States have mostly set themselves free from this Sanatana Slavary and progressed well. All those who don't wear Janeu are the Shudra population. For Janeudhari Sanatana Hindus of RSS/BJP, Native Indians/Shudra population become Hindus only during elections.

The BJP Representative fought back well against the catty comments from those 2 Congress veterans who were sitting together. They appear to be part of the old Khan Market gang that got punished with the election of Narendra Modi. In spite of only 3 months field experience the BJP Rep outplayed them.

Manmohan Singh's statement was not of routine nature rathet it was the disclosure of Congress' grand political strategy to woo muslim's support.

Now you take the responsibility of your allince leaders grandson have done the crime.

The BJP girl is speaking well great diction and knowledge. But the sentences are long winded, complex and I end up not understanding

In this election PM has to be concerned about the BJP workers not the opposition due to inducting leaders from other parties, especially from Congress. Leaders inducted from other parties given tickets are about 108, ignoring BJP leaders and karyakartas.

Can clearly see BJP correspondents in the panel …. Which kannadiga doesn’t want to get money to the state and these guyz compares it to distribution of wealth 😂. Can see their true colors . Go talk to your boss

Khujliraani cannot keep her hands still.. scratching here and there all through the video

To the BJP representative, yes we will question BJP on the undeclared emergency 'because of" having been through emergency. BJP was voted into power precisely because of the issues that he brought up in 2014 about emergency, corruption and inflation. If it continues to be an issue, if nor worse, even after 10 years of BJP then why should the general population continue to support them?

FEDUP WITH JUMLA BJP..CHANGE GOVT..SAVE DEMOCRACY

@newslaundry How is anyone a NEUTRAL & OBJECTIVE if they are focussing on only one party and not Fact Checking the LIES of other/opposition parties as well. By all means, take everyone to task, but dont leave out your paymasters in your narratives Love it when New Laundry Anchor Pooja Prasanna say at 43.00 minutes, Lets keep CONgress aside for a minute, well both the Anchors have been trying hard/best to keep CONgress aside in this debate & focus is more on the ruling party. Why is Manisha Pande and Pooja Prasanna openly say we are here on the behalf of CONgress Party?

You would imagine that a foreign education would liberate you and empower you to see through a clear cut communal jab. I understand that the BJP spokesperson has a job to do, but she couldn’t bring herself to utter a single word at least suggesting that Modi’s remarks were problematic! I can’t believe we can’t find a single BJP supporter/ worker who finds it objectionable!!

Congress doesn't need more bashing . Give them a break.

1) When it come to wealth redistribution = its our duty to help as we're a union of states ✅ 2) When it comes to reservations = it's NOT our duty to help those in need because it's because of their own problems they are backward! ⚔️😅 3) When it comes to hate speech = it was a MASTERCLASS 🥵 4) When it comes to calling out fake news = Fact checking is NOT good strategy! 😅 5) When it comes to Mangalsutra = it was MODI's counter arguement strategy. No problem. 😅 6) Cultural Integration is better than talking about Education, Unemployment, Political facts. 7) Calling Muslims "infiltrators" = important to TALK about such issues. 8) Communal polarisation = NOT a big issue. 9) INC should NOT talk about economic issues, IT'S BORING. Really????😅 SUCH HYPOCRITES!!! Yeah, there is a reason these people work in the field they are in. It all about MONEY and MUSCLE. Its all about personal gains. If INDI Alliance comes to power, I'm sure these people will come in and praise them for money. No integrity, humility, empathy for the common man.

Rahul Gandhi released a fake video in Telugana that BJP - Amit Shah promising to cancel the reservation of SC/ST/OBC and gave wide coverage in all villages. Karnataka and Teugana gave 15% Muslim reservation which is a loss to SC/ST/OBC groups. To counter the fake message, the BJP had to hit back with the hardest and convincing argument Thus the allegation was made that Mangalsutra would be taken back and given to Congress's vote bank specified by Dr MMS. The allegation is true when Sam Pitroda supplemented the argument with 55% inheritance tax. In Kerala, CPM experimented with the idea. CPM confiscated the land of landowners and distributed it in small pieces. Kerala is now in a debt crisis. There is ZERO agriculture, manufacturing, higher education , health and infrastructure in Kerala. So the experiment failed miserably. BTW, when we study which community is now holding these landpieces, Modi's allegation has come true.

Manisha Pande and Pooja Prasanna have always revealed lack of desire for critical thinking in the expressing the opinions they hold. Manisha's personality is that of a person trying the enter a club thru backdoor, since getting admitting into it from the front door is our of question Of-course I am talking about the Club of Intellectual. Whereas BJP spokes person showed no desire to be part of such clubs. Manisha Pande and Pooja Prasanna kind of people are now disappearing from India, vacating the place for more authentic, more Indian reporters who are not so eager to get counted as "an intellectual" - a totally Western concept.

India economy is a question and no one is bothered.

What is news laundry's strategy shhhhh...😂

25:00 very vague answer. I believe because the allegation is true

Kerala and south Karnataka voted on same day I think this Prajwal sex issues would have given a real jolt in Godwda heartlands where JDS holds sway but ofcourse the Congress was sleeping, missed the train and now trying to encash it in lingayath land,let’s hope it pan out well

Alert: Make sure you get good guests, may be you havent realised, however lot of people in karnataka especially in Bangalore are ClosetBhakts...

I genuinely hope Manisha and the likes are put behind bars by BJP, they deserve this govt.

This time congress wins first two rounds in building the narrative. Modi himself promoted the congress manifesto.. Next when modi after realizing the wind direction, they changed the strategy and again started their usual hindu muslim divide. But again it is also not reaching the people. Luckily Revanba sex scandal which shook the nation is in favour of Rahul. Out of seven phases, two phases over and in our view, two phases are in favour of INDIA.

I know that this is an old interview because the Revanna situation is not brought up lol. You guys have bad reaction times.

Maybe you guys should learn from videos like Ajit Anjums Amethi tea shop video uploaded 3 days back. It is not curated participation and is very free flowing with points and counter points.

So another time Modi???uhh that hurts….))))
