Dinesh Thakur on exposing Ranbaxy’s fraud | NL Interview 

My goodness! This is eye opening. Dinesh Thakur has set a high standard for ethical corporate conduct.

Dinesh Thakur is the flag bearer for professional ethics. Thank a lot for honouring this country

Thank you for doing this interview and having it fully available for everyone!! This is real journalism

The book bottle of Lies is good. This guy's a hero, but his journey must've been hard and he must have lost a lot inbetween being a normal person to being a Hero . This guy needs to be celebrated 🙏

I am stunned by his integrity, Fine gentleman, and High-quality interview!!

WOW ! This man is great .. respect Dinesh Thakur . God bless him 🙏

I admire newslaundry's efforts! Thanks a lot for looking out for our interests!

Madhu, this is a very scary story. I suffered the side effects of Amoxicillin so badly that for weeks I was unwell. I don't know how much wealth one needs to acquire to live a comfortable, luxurious life. Most of them die with the disease they sowed. My humble suggestion to Mr Thakur is not to venture for a public cause in here. I have seen how uncivilized and uneducated we are with all such highly decorated degrees from here and abroad. Past one and half year has made me think that Winston Churchill was right to predict about our freedom.

Sir, True warrior you are! I have no words to praise you Sir. Men of your calibre and moral are needed in India always! 🤝

Very inspiring story! He is a true hero, fighting off a powerful business must have been extremely challenging. Also, great to see you in action Madhu!! 🙏🏼

An Eye Opener... Hats off to Dr Dinesh Thakur sir !

This all is furious. Thanks to courageous persons like Thakur Sir who stood firm against wrong doings. & Thanks NL for sparing that good time and platform for ugly truth to be revealed. 🙏

My jaw dropped as I was listening to this interview. I have to commend you on the stance you have taken. I am very glad to learn that you received an appropriate return and are putting it to good use. My best wishes to you Dinesh. Thank you Madhu for an excellent interview.

Very inspiring interview... about deficiency of ethics and morals in Indian Corporate culture, especially in Pharma industry. It is also true that AGMs of most Pharma companies across globe takes pride about their annual balance sheets and not as much as to how many patients they touched upon every year!

India is no place for honesty, our chalta hai culture is unbeatable.

It seems this video was hidden and has been "un-hidden" again today.. so the old comments are still there but it shows that the video has been uploaded today.. Anyway, Whistleblowers put a lot at risk knowing how risky it is.. That's a lot ! We are indebted to him... This is the difference when you make your life purpose your career, rather than just earn... Not everyone understands their life purpose, values their education, degree...

Such a well researched interview.. each and every question asked is with understanding the scientific basis.. well done Madhu trehan :) Manipulation of data in non-clinical and clinical settings is something still prevalent in several indian CRO and pharma companies..

NETFLIX should make a documentary on this.Thanks newslaundry

Best Interview I can think of from newslandry , thanks

This man is a hero. He has suffered personally due to this battle.

Great investigative reporting. Revealing the dirty underbelly of corporate India.

This is such a groundbreaking Interview! NL Team, please do publish shorter snippets of this video for greater reach

Thank you so much for this interview. I didn't have single clue of this until I watched this. Great work Newslaundry

brilliant Dinesh and Madhu ! thanks for getting this to us !

Rightly said,people like Dinesh Thakur burn their life for right ethics but then there is compensation.very inspiring conversation.Thank you👍

so glad to know he got well compensated at the end of the long struggle. our thanks beautifully conducted interview by Madhu Trehan..

Great work Sir. As an ordinary person, I feel indebted to you. Great work Newslaundry. I can't expect this interview over any other platform . Why is this interview uploaded recently though when it was filmed in 2019 ?

Thanks Dinesh, You should be proud Yourself being holding your Moral Compass and the reward are Indian People and country in which, I hope it should be rcoqnise. All the best and keep it up for Indian and to the world and there are some people with a wise and good Moral Compass to keep this world near balance.

Can you please restart 'can you take it' where Madhu Trehan used to take interviews of journalists and other personalities. It was a great show and she had so good discussions with everyone. I think this is the time when it is more relevant and I am sure everyone would love it. It wold be great if you could interview some of the same personalities after almost a decade

Eye opener. Indeed our society has people like him who has strong moral values. However our system sieves them and discards them as outcasts. What is left is the corrupt at all levels of governance. It same situation in every field. Even the judiciary and journalists are not exceptions.

she done her home work with every tiny point having proper sequence . and that man "Dinesh Thakur" Thank you we need more peoples like you . at any cost they are stick to the point / truth . because of him other are open their eyes and find what they are doing is totally wrong .

What a fantastic interview :) This is a masterpiece for someone to learn the importance of corporate culture, this fraud could go on for so long because of the "Yes Men" that were there in the company.

Dinesh Thakur is a great person. I am with him always.

Great to see Madhu trehan interviewing someone. It is informative and engaging.

Such a great thoughtful and informative talk, hats off to you newslaundary team!!!!!

I cannot believe that I had never known of this until now. It's crazy how something that shook the frkn roots of India's regulatory system has been suppressed so well - this story needs to be told

Best interview of true honest man. Must circulate this on other channels. Ok

All such valuable videos should have two dates. Date of production and date of upload. This will give true reference to the time when the interview was done. And the date of production should be mentioned by producer NewsLaundry.

Thanks to Dinesh Thakar for being honest and letting us the common man know.

What a gem this interview is👍

Excellent mind-blowing 👍👍👍 he is such an erudite person hats off to Dinesh 👍

1 year old video, I see it before. He is hero. He is the guy who leak one of the medication scam in India.

Read the bottle of lies book.. I'm scared to take any medicines...

I want this host to make more of an effort to introduce the audience who hasn't heard anything about anything related to this scam.

Eyeopening. We need to spread this. My wish is that Dinesh should work with our govt to bring a regulatory change or body that can govt from adultery of medicine - ( something like SEBI for stock exchanges)

This is a great piece of work from both the interviewer and interviewee. Unfortunately in India, we have a large population that is not medically literate enough to understand these things. And with such a large population it will be who cares about a few cheap lives. And with bribes prevalent at all levels in all fields, this is not going to change for a long time. Here they are discussing about adulteration in drugs where as basic needs like staples, dairy products go through large scale adulteration on a daily basis.

I was told by a relative working there , that Ranbaxy used, even procured aged ,expired chemicals to make drugs' and they themselves never used their own Company medicines !

Inhumanity at its worst. A time will come when humans will not trust his/her near ones also. PAC

*#news_laundry** we need strong whistleblower law as usa and high protection and reward too - it's investment for our nation not expenses*

I dint knew Dinesh, now he is my Idol. For long time I haven't had an Indian Idol. Am so happy that I have found one. I also like the interviewer, especially her discussion with Karan Thapar :)

Excellent interview 👍👍

Thank you for this bravery.

Thank you Dinesh Thakur ji.

Reality of India.

Excellent interview!

US fined Rabaxy for 500mn dollars, But India fined for Zero(00000....) Rupees. Such an important issue that directly affects our life and hardly any Indian knows about this. May be only a lakh or two. The fact that it isn't in public knowledge by now you should be worried about.

Wow..after so many years I finally found my hero...you are an inspiration

Thanks NL. Please allow pay per view. Really want to pay for this one.

Good journalism too. Kudos.

@netflix should make this into a documentary

Great work news laundry....

Kudos to such kind of journalism

पढा़ईं खत्म ,कमाईं खत्म ,रोजगार खत्म,और तो और , जीवन बेमौत खत्म ,मोदी है तो मातम है🙏🇮🇳

Thanks for video on this subject

I agree with Dinesh that the drugs and Cosmetics act needs to be modernised and DCGI needs committee of experts

Thank u do much for providing us this interviews this opens our mind as youth to open our startups to correct this asap. I will surely subscribe u next month. Bye i loved it.

Great Guy. May I add one gratuitous comment: Eary in the Interview Mr Thakur pointed out that it was ' Middle Management' who were really executing and guarding the fraud, so to say. Trehan, towards the end of the interview, comments that ' our young people should speak out and change the prevalent corporate culture etc : middle managers and ' young people' are children and grand children of an all pervasive corrupt ambiance, especially if a parent or/and grandparent was a civil servant, government or municipal employee, is employed in a public sector organisation viz. Bank BARC ONGG and probably a thousand more such. Management Schools in India teach them the Two Word Mantra for a successful Modus Vivendi : 'Manage Karo'. That is to lie, cheat, deny, make false accusations, bribe, and do any another form of such deceit as a way of life. That is a reality to reakon with. They understand the reality of Present day India a tad better than the two on this interview. Remember 'The Emperor's New Clothes'.

Awesome work!!

I have watched another interview of his on Lallantop.. He comes across as a wonderful person..

He is a Hero!

He should be made the DGCI of India for Life . Has the board been prosecuted ?

Nice to see Madhu Ji after a long time.. she's the best.

Amazing interview.

can we please see more of madhu? Please... I love her interviews and find them academic

More people need to watch this

An eye opener

Wow , what an eye opener 😳😳😳

These type of interview should be more

Finally.. Madhu Trehan is back!!! 🎉🎉

Buying your subscription is best thing I did. God give your team new heights.

Newslaundry, thanks for such a great interview and blaring things of unethical practice.

Chilling!

Thank for bring up the reality in regulation and malpractices going on in pharm industry, Sir I wanna make a correction that Pharmacist are the most suitable for the DCGI role Because these the only one who are experts in pharmaceutical products stability study's ,Analysis etc Where as medical students are not taught that, So please make correction about the role of pharmacist they play a key vital role

Wao! 🙏🙏🙏 Respect! But I wonder why this video has been uploaded so late! Clearly from the conversations its clear that it was recoded in the last week of September 2019.

Great job mem

You can create small snips of this interview, of important parts, so that people can share this. For example from @12:05 to 8 minutes.

Thanks, how corporate culture, politician sacrifice our moral, culture and life ? Sweet to Know but grively sad how extreem greed and Politician control our world.

Only in India. Incredible how a listed company could get away for tens of years.

Drug controlling Law should be rewritten immeditely,

we strictly need NEW drug regulation laws. Many durgs that are banned by WHO are easily sold by pharmacy in indian villages. Public is usually inclined towards buying cheap but highly potent drugs irrespective of its side effects.

All Indian pharma companies are doing this. It just happened that a man with a pure conscience happened to drop into Ranbaxy and got to do the whistleblowing.

*काश कोरोना भी सरकारी फंड जैसा होता* *आम जनता तक पहुँचने से पहले ही नेताओं मे बट जाता* |

YUUUPPP!!!! "A Cultural Thing"

This continue to happen if things are monitored and controlled by mgmt guys, not by subject matter experts... This is applicable for everything in today's INDUSTRY

Respect for you sir 😍😍

Journalism at its best👍

And Doctors do save Lives even in India.

It was very disappointing to see the way question regarding support from spouse was framed. Its not expected from such a senior journalist to pose such a sensitive question with utter casual & callous approach. I happen to know Sonal for more then 30 years and have witnessed her struggle & unconditional support for the cause during these tough times. Without a strong backing at home front, no one can go for 9 years fighting this battle. I am enclosing a link of her interview where she has spoken about her side of the story. Her balanced approach in every matter speaks of the strength with which she took complete charge of the family front during these testing times. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-x8Jk-owSv74.html

This kind of practice has only given a long rope for Fradulant practice in other streams too ayurveda etc no exception

Wow Madhu Trehan is back..🔥
