Mr Montek Singh Ahluwalia is a legend. As for Shri Ram, we have a Laxman. I see Mr. Montek as a Laxman to Dr Manmohan Singh. They both made significant contributions towards Indian economy steering the country from a controlled economy at the hands of bureaucrats to a more liberalized economy. The interview is very significant that Simarpreet touched on all necessary topics. Keep up the good work
After 22 podcast have been following you Simar. Now I can say I am not amazed the amazing quality of people you bring to your podcast before Sardar Montek Singh Ahluwalia ji is not amazing he is a true legend. I am not sure how do you manage to get these intellectuals and have an amazing conversation. You are truly blessed. I’ve said in the past your channel will become one of the biggest podcast in the world. Keep it up!!
This video was posted in my family group in the morning, i was born in 2001 and now in my final year of MBBS had absolutely no clue about 1991 economic liberalisation . I am amazed why this is not taught in school. Post the podcast spent entire day reading articles & videos. One of best podcast on the internet i really hope it reaches a lot of people
I’ve been following your podcast closely, and I’m continually amazed by the quality of guests you bring on. Having Sardar Montek Singh Ahluwalia Ji on the show was truly incredible - a conversation on a whole new level. One thing I must say, the episode with your father Saab was something else entirely - it brought a special depth that made it stand out in a different league altogether. It’s my hardest wish to meet you in person one day and personally express my appreciation for the wonderful work you’re doing. You’re truly creating something special, and I know your podcast will only continue to grow🙏
Thank you ji for kind words. Podcast with dad was very very special it’s was my episode 1. Thank you for seeing that, glad you enjoyed it. More such episodes coming soon
This will go down as one of the all time classics. I am school teacher and I feel this podcast should be shown to all school students to deeply understand how India was before 1991 and role that Dr Manmohan Singh & Montek S Ahluwalia played was game changing. Thank you for bringing such a remarkable content. God bless
Always a pleasure listening to Mr. Ahluwalia. Well done! Jaspal Bhatti’s show “Flop Show” is great social satire on the mai baap license permit quota raj sarkar. There is an episode on the telecom department and funerals for dead phones lol. You should interview Swaminathan S. Anklesaria Aiyar for more details on the license permit quota Raj. He has written about how he bought a car under the journalist quota, used it for a few years and then sold it for more than he purchased it. He wrote a nice piece called “socialism kills” which has some interesting details.
People need to understand economic matters in better way and choose our govt. on basis of economic policy & not only on the basis of caste, creed or religion.
Wow, much awaited podcast. Thank you simarpreet for this. Commenting before listening to this podcast, but I am very sure that it will be very enriching and interesting.
Thank you so much ji. Our mission is very clear to produce meaningful & impact driven content. Bring people from all spoke’s of life who have & are creating impact and from their journeys we can all learn something
The government wants an economy that takes 'all sectors' forward. But in reality stagnation & crisis (local foreign) impact our performance. If 'money, investment, manufacturing business, foreign, war, disease etc.' is used as a 'tool or rule' then like the graph on an oscilloscope it's an 'up & down' affair. Reserves loans incentives give the -ve down on the chart graph to balance. So, governments play in foreign economies that's politics. Indian families in the majority rely on 'gold' & that's where the Govt needs to concentrate, Brics is on 'trial' it's not proven like Swift, it will need many 'updates & fixes' before it stabilizes. Here is the danger, some countries are bound to get 'blue screens' and breakdowns. If the CPU can't get the gigabytes from the hard drive or the mainboard has failed, or the graphics fail, it will be a 'sat siri akal' & markets will fall like dominoes !! 😊
