Shivraj’s train journey to Gadkari’s free will-Modi 3.0 shows signs of return of democracy to BJP 

without industrialisation and manufacturing, India is a ticking time bomb.

DK you deliver more substance in 10 minutes than what Lallantop does in 2-3 hours.

May be the elections took BJP back to pre-2014. But, this happened for good. That Nadda guy should be demoted for his arrogant mouth against RSS. It is not Modi but it was Shah who was trying to become stronger by getting rid of Modi's equivalents from potential competition. Gadkari ji did not get his due respect. Khattar ji, Mama ji... many more such leaders were insulted. I still cannot digest how BJP can can deny RSS's influence? But, very very glad that RSS is back to show who is the real force.

Shivraj also lost 2018 election, yes Shivraj is great but MP's growth is now becoming similar to Punjab too much agriculture not enough Industry.

Nice analysis... No judgement... No labeling... No far fetched conclusion... Just analysis...

Chauhan removal was a good idea. MP needs industrialisation

This results could actually be the best thing long term for the BJP because unlike popular belief the bjp workers/supporters actually will not vote for corrupt candidates etc. ie they are ideological and want what they are promised to be delivered.

NHAI's statement, denying the guest house facility at Patna, has another meaning that is, the NHAI is not connected with RJD or NEET criminal

Why the BJP is shamelessly bent before Modi

The party that won is turning humble. The party that lost is becoming arrogant. Let them be arrogant and be in the opposition.

Thanks DK. This was an excellent analysis, deserving an applaud.

Congratulations. Well-weaved & critically presented narrative on Shivraj's performance, persistence, and promise as well recording the winds of much needed changes in BJP's command structure and internal democracy. Thank you, DK.

But the issue is-such democracy is only seen in BJP not in Congress which still only guve chance to Gandhi's 🤦🏻‍♂️😔Congress don't have any other leader????

I am extremely delighted to see Mr. D. K. Singh of Print has mustered courage to speak what many leaders of the BJP party are scared to speak. Hats off to Mr. Singh.

Good for democracy in India.

Woh. Winds of change in BJP after getting 240. What about congress after loosing 3 national elections consecutively, how much winds have changed.

What you're calling 'Chief Ministers were dumped and changed on whims,' was a way to ensure accountability! No CM should feel invincible, they are servants of people and representatives of the party. Stop treating CMs like they have a birthright to the chair!

Shivraj Singh is Man to watch. Mass leader, excellent administrator, clean image, vision, great orator . A possible PM candidate. He exhibited great teamwork by winning all Lok Sabha seats in MP.

25% of loksabha candidate of BJP this time were from other party and apart from this most of them had corruption charges

Modi love for shah (Shah did a great work in article 370 removal) must not obscure the party….The Party of BJP stood for principles against Dynasty, corruption and impeccable character of leaders (Vajpayee and Advani…)…but BJP slowly turning into Khangress…Just like mummy Sonia want son in PM chair and destroying many great congress leaders Modi also doing the same with Shah…This should stop….RSS must take control now and clean BJP of all malice (in Maharashtra )

What you said about BJP leaders at 1:20 is more than imaginable in parties aligned with INDI.

DK ji, Off late, there is a shift in your shows, very subtle though ! We perceive you as one of the very few Journos and perhaps only one in The Print who understands RSS and BJP thoroughly . With all that knowledge , do you still believe Shiraj and Gadkari etc sulk if they are not in the cabinet ?And , do you really believe Modi ji will be behaving so petty that he will ignore Gadkari's and Shiv Raj's contributions ? Is there some fishing in troublked waters going on to build a narrative to support someone? Apppreciate knowing your honest opinion. Good day.

No one can sideline shivraj chauhan, he is more obc than modi can ever become, for me biggest obc face of bjp, efficient administrator, bit wrong side of 60 to be seen as potential succesor, but for next decade or so he will contribute massively bjp in national politics, him and yogi combination will be deadly, yogi will pool hinduttva vote him getting moderate hindu vote, will be interesting to see after 2029

DK Singh is " Politically Correct", always.

Democracy is not an end in itself. What people want is good governance and reforms to help usher economic growth. Democracy doesn't mean, opposing everything for the sake of it. If tomorrow BJP loses power, will the other side accept blind opposition from BJP ? This is not healthy. Rahul Gandhi has taken Congress towards left like Indira Gandhi and is threatening to derail economic growth. He is disrupting all possibility of consensus on reforms, by spreading Adani-Ambani conspiracy theories, and misinformation on loan-writeoffs, when in fact there should be discussion on evergreening of bad loans under UPA, which left NDA to cleanup the mess.

Precise and to the point analysis. I love it and look forward to your videos sir.

What does it mean whe PM says more action and less slogans?

Great Analysis

Beatiful❤

Pl include. In tamilnadu annamalai also. He took strong position to go independant in elections to build party base

Does it mean before 2024 there was no democracy in BJP?

Why do i feel that this video script is written for National Interest by SG but ultimately recited by Mr Singh

Fruits of democracy.The polity balances itself.

Brilliant

Good 👍

If this course correction continues, then 2029 might be positive for BJP

Exactly, this will be most potent government in India history. Some bit wings need to crip to fly high. If we understand mendet in simple terms people want Modi at centre stage but bit accommodative and as for as Congress is concerned i think this is their best performance because Rahul dose not have gravity

Mr.. I think your analysis and your narration on the facts and people.....even they do not know that they intended to be so..... Clearly this is how the output will be if an Agenda based work is delivered....attributing what the people/leaders never thaught of to be so...

So you are saying that this election not only restored democracy in India but in BJP as well.. Okay

Hopefully internal democracy becomes part of each and every institution of this country, but still it seems a distant dream for bjp as well as all others

BJP needed this.

Shivaraj Chauhan need to improve his English Communication to take on centre stage

blah blah blah …… 😀 every party has its internal ups and downs ….. wats the point 🤔 of this episode

Ajab si fakeeri hai insab logo mai.

I disagree with Yeduyurappa or Vasundhara raje as it was sheer fiefdom than any leadership reinstated of the state, be it strengthening BJP in their respective states, subsequently losing election too.

The Assam example is a little overblown. The BJP and its allies actually gained one seat as compared to 2019. They also gained in voteshare. The Congress may have won a battle(Jorhat seat) but they lost the war in that state. Himanta Biswa Sarma is secure for now.

If someone takes 1 step back doesn’t mean they are weak. Give few months and you would see their isn’t any difference. Modi doesn’t want to stick to chair and appear weak, he will quit if that’s the case and new government will not run its course and when there are elections again you would see he will get majority again.

This is what I wanted. Modi-shah went too much. People taught them a lesson

nothing success like success and flip side, failure brings attention with criticism. Fair enough. Here is my take: Modi delegated too much of party decisions to Nadda and Shah; the former should not have been in the cabinet; Shah continued to run the party on his own- Modi should not have allowed it. Second, 400+ clarion call got too heady: so much that Modi burnt his bridges with Patnaik, a staunch ally for all seasons. Some kind of redistribution of power between Modi/Shah and the regional satraps is good for the party- Chauhan , Yogii are good example. Modi 3.0 cannot roar , may be deliver something concrete -Iterms of economy and settle any suggestion of succession battles - which nearly routed the party in UP.This is like the Corp strategy guy vying for the CEO position with the business head out on the field. That tells you how Corporatised BJP has become with power.

It's actually a good thing if second-rung leaders get to have a say in running the BJP again because it has hurt them having to rely solely on Modi and Shah with all the CMs, ministers etc. not saying anything and not campaigning. On the other hand it must be remembered that these other leaders wouldn't have managed to get BJP up to even 240 seats if they had been in charge instead of Modi and Shah. Gadkari is not well known outside Maharashtra. Shivraj Chouhan may be really popular in Madhya Pradesh but he wouldn't be able to get any votes for the BJP in places like UP or Bihar or Karnataka. For a real 'Double Engine' the BJP needs to have both a strong central leadership and strong state leaders like the above names.

Indian parties should work on building a primary process like in the US for key political and governmental positions instead of having this high command culture.

Yes, what was happening in the last decade was totally unlike the BJP. And, Shivraj Singh Chauhan was also touted as the Prime Ministerial candidate in 2014 itself alongside Narendra Modi. But of course the latter won the day. The two leaders at the top, Modi and Shah should recognise this as you say and allow the party to go back to its original mojo. They should heed Mohan Bhagwat's advice about a Sevak remaining humble. And remember, Modi has always called himself 'Rashtr ka Sevak.'

If the BJP speakers in Parliament debates stop taking Modi's name unnecessarily that would prove that the desired changes have taken place.

ALL in India want the GOOD.. When will Print And Intellectuals realise that n NO DK sir. It is not.*democracy" but VALUES. A variable NOT present in Print. It is going to be the FACTOR at the base of MANY events. Print is missing that factor when it Should be giving a Moral rudder. Sad.

Surely positive criticism is good for every party. Note that BJP is still popular party and if they atleast try to nurture their loyalist or say earlier karyakartas who sticked with them, have good relation with RSS, solve farmers,students and women issues they can get even 350 seats in coming lok Sabha. BJP has seen really positive growth in south which can even make them get 2/3 rd majority if they solve farmers issue,students issue(employment and stop paper leeks) and introduce some more women related schemes.

You forget vasundhara raje

As long as BJP party principle, no one care to listen to you Singh sirjee

BJP party should do some real researching on their losses in the recent elections. BJP should not become like Congress

Well sirji, I sincerely hope that the "whistle of change" is heard at The Print as well 😅 Please be clearly critical of those in power when it is well warranted The whole reason why people like me watch you guys and not the confirmed godi media is that we want to hear honest and brave journalists

1:08 look whos talking about bent spines!

Problem lower level pe hai. Ganvo me Ayushman Card banane me gadad ho raha hai. Awas yojna me 30-35 k le rahe hai sachiv aur pradhan . Ayushman Card me paisa nahi doge to lataka rahega apaka card.😊

Hopefully the BJP will follow the ideals of Democracy and the rude and ugly dominance and dictatorship of Modi and Saha will come to an end.

Bhai kaha ke source se yeh sab baate laate ho yaar…. Jaise tumhare pados mn hi ho raha hai sab… sources tells you

Sorry DKS..Modi will never trust Gadkari in 2014 he was ag.his PM nomination. He is the most popular leader in India n BJPs vote catcher..so question of democracy return.in BJP is left liberal humbug.

Sack Nadda !

I admire you but I accept only 10% of your assessment. Here I am drawing your attention at one point. Vajpayee formed a BJP BSP government government in UP with the formula sx month you, six months us inspite of Rajnath Singh's opposition.

Dk plzz stop trying so hard to create a rift inside BJP they are much Mature Politicians and they work for Party's Upliftment ,Modi Made Shivraj agriculture minister for a Reason Farm Laws will come again and this Time they need a Great Administrator to put it through Agriculture Ministry is one the most Important ministry in Modi 3.0.

Talks like a Congress Spokesperson

Sir you are exaggerating this train journey 😀

Bharat ke log ahankar pasand nahi karate . Ye Yogi ko down karane ke chakkar me khud hi down ho gaye UP me😊

Jump from one issue to another. No clarity. Congress leader mouth not lip locked but gagged.

Nhai doesn't have guest house in patna and BJP was alleging that tejaswi yadav PA booked room in nhai guest house wow what a hypocrisy

Over exaggeration of things

What about Vyapam scam.

I liked some of the videos of DK Singh in the past. But this video is one of the stupidest also like I observed many times in the past DK forgets what he said in a video after 6 months and try to bring out a conspiracy theory in the new video out of lame instances. Anyways, there are numerus examples of Gadkariji saying something independently. Before becoming the DyCM, Fadnavis openly said he did not want to be one and focus on strengthening the party. So saying something openly by Fadnavis is not new. When BJP made a Yadav CM in MP, and asked Shivraj-ji to contest for MP election as part of BJP's transition plan for ex CMs itself it was clear that he was going to become Union Agri Minister. In fact many experienced jurnos had tweeted about this a year ago. In fact he has been given additional charge of Rural development ministry due to the margin of his victory and also due to less # of BJP's ministers in the new cabinet.

Wonderful presentation by DK Sir. Narendra Modi was well on his way to become Indira Gandhi 2.0 That danger has passed. Our country and our culture has always valued the plurality of thoughts. That's what has sustained our civilization. Dissent to good for the BJP and even better for Bharat and it's people.

Sabse bevakufi bhara analisis, BJP main Vajpayee,Advani ke jamane se critic's ko intjar tha,jhori aur decipline tuta ,lekin...Aaj Tak sub theek chal raha hai... Opp. Main dekho Sonia ji chairperson, Rahul leader opp . Priyanka ki GN. Sc....

And other fairy tales

Santulan or balance in statecraft, stemming erosion of democracy and economic discontent were the key messages from the 2024 electoral verdict.

Modi is the captain of a sinking ship. Next 10 years are going to be very difficult for BJP!

Aur Kitna those ki kosis karoge bjp ko anderse😅😅😅

What Modi has done with Shivraj Singh Chauhan is criminal. I always thought he was the best CM in India in the last 30 years, way better than Modi. However, The treatment Fadanvish has received from Modi-Shah, is a SIN.

It seems this analysis of yours is not politically correct.. though am neutral observer your reading is not correct...

Oh boy this anchor could not speak english properly , it seems he is from Bengal. Half of the talk he swallowed it. 😂😂😂

People of India have done great by bringing back the opposition into the system

What ever you people put narrative... It was very clear that nobody other than Narendra Modi could have won Loksabha elections for BJP in 2014 and 2019.

This is the difference between BJP and congress ...

"A week is a very long time in politics" - We have seen that a Day can be a long time in politics on 4th June. Modi has reduced from all powerful to a mere politician in a day.

Wishful imaginary analysis.

DK why are you so nervous of BJP You always tend to get false fault lines in BJP and not in congress

Congress beat reporter DK Singh betraying his masters voice while analysing BJP internal politics 😂😂😂😂 Kuch bhi karle DK...BJP internal access nahi milega 😂😂😂😂

Shivraj singh chouhan, Gadkari, Rajnath singh - all will be looking to replace modi in this tenure

Gadkari, Rajnath, Shivraj and Yogi must revolt.

Fascism only comes after democracy, so we have to be extra careful. Opposition is must in a democracy. Democracies are not easy, so World has seen many authoritarians. These are the warnings, which if we see in India, are signs that India is turning into a regime state: 1. Tell that the citizens powers are being taken by this 'other' smaller group of people in the country. 2. Disdain for the importance of human rights. 3. Inciting “spontaneous” mob to act against their identified enemies. 4. A disproportionate share of national resources is allocated to the military, even when domestic needs are acute. 5. Rampant sexism & treat women as second-class citizens. They are anti-abortion & intolerant of homosexuality, which are codified into laws that enjoy strong support by the religious, lending cover for the laws. 6. The liberal media are under strict control, by labelling them as unpatriotic or by implied threats to the owners of the private media 7. Obsession with national security & their actions are justified under the rubric of “security”. 8. A perception is manufactured to kept up the illusion that the party members are defenders of the faith & opponents of being “godless” 9. Power of corporations is protected to ensure a continued mutuality of interests 10. The poor, that forms the underclass, is considered akin to a vice 11. Suppression of artists & academicians who are called high-society club "elites". To fascists, art & literature should serve the national interest, or they have no right to exist. 12. Fear of criminals & national traitors, are promoted as an excuse to give more unchecked power to the police, leading to rampant abuse. Obsession with draconian systems of punishment with huge prison populations. 13. Those in business circles & close to the power elite often use their position to enrich themselves. 14. They are also obsessed about deep-secret global plan that is against them.

While it is true that there is a concentration of power in the BJP, can you name a political party that is not power-centric in India?

Happy to see these changes. Please reform yourself BJP, please save India from having Pappus as leaders. Please.

Let end of Modi be the end of Amit Shah otherwise India will be doomed under his leadership.

DK, don’t you think the congress and RG etc should be talking the real statutes that lead a relook than the statues unrelated to the constitution and stop misleading the Nation in much the same way as they accuse the BJP of doing?

Remove sonia and rahul . This country and democracy will run fine

This result is best for bjp 2029
