I love how Shivshankar Menon tries as much as possible to ignore what Shekhar Gupta says.

Always a pleasure to hear and consequently learn from Shivshankar Menon. Crystal clear in his and country's views and stands. Draws a clear line between in being true and fair versus the fake rhetorics.

It is a great programme. Every Indian should aim to make India a developed nation and start taking ownership of what I can do for the country than asking what the country can do for me. Without high aims nothing important in life has been achieved. 1.35 billion Indians should make the country a green, clean, united, peaceful, progressive and a developed nation.

A really savvy and well-expressed session. Mr.Menon's non-partisan balanced approach to things is a joy to watch. An exercise in classic understatement, giving food for thought. As a Keralite and also a Menon, I take pride in him. Much different from the long-winded harangues of Shashi Tharoor

Non-alliance movement of India is a big myth created by Nehru for his hatred of West. Nehru aligned with Moscow and China (Hindi-Chinni Bhai Bhai and supported the Chinese occupation and colonialism of Tibet despite Nehru strong European Colonialism ). And as such India remained poor until India adopted the Western system and trashed the Soviet style of State control. Very soon India became a sort of economic powerhouse.

A very balanced view. However I beg to differ with him on his view of the Chinese psychology. They are in a hurry to grow - in fact too much of a hurry. But they are always looking at the outside world. You cannot keep their citizens under gag for much longer and the internal unrest will start the day they remove restrictions on travel of their citizens. Right now they cannot even travel to many parts of their own Country without permission, You cannot have a modern super-power with archaic laws.
