disappointing to hear and see this this man. You can tell he came up the ranks hoping on shoulders rather than the ladder rungs
the democratic framework of the country seems like it will soon be for the history books.

Would have liked to have had questions here. What about relations with Pakistan? What about India's Ukraine war stance? What about Hindudva? This is panglossian propaganda and it would have been good for a bit of balance.

India's Ukraine stance is well documented globally. Just look it up. and what about hindutva???? India is hindu in it's ethos. 85% of Indians happen to be Hindu. that is why it is the peaceful country that it is- compare that to it's muslim neighbor!!!
He fails to address the rabid racism that prevails between the communties and also within some of the communities which have plagued Indis for centuries

nothing like the racism that exists in the UK. Yes there is some hatred and bigotry that comes from the minority community but by in large, things are pretty good and under control.

India was indeed split mid 20th century because of idiotic bigotry and fantasies of 'holy land'. It shall never happen again, we shall bicker and argue, but the ethos of this civilization shall remain like it has for thousands of years
Why is India such a poor country despite an abundance of natural wealth and human talent which has fled overseas and also being choked in India
