www.intelligenc... Suhel Seth argues in favour of the motion "Democracy is India's Achilles' heel" at the Intelligence Squared debate on 27th September 2011 at the Royal Geographical Society.
Except talking in English what is the contribution of this speaker ...? nothing.. Hence Indian Know very well this is hollow powerful GAS (HP GAS) .. Reliance Group, Tata Group, TVS Group, Bajaj Auto, Adanis .. They have done something -- These Lutyen Delhi-based Journalists ONLY TALK TALK and TALK ..
Suhel Seth doesnt address the issue that India was destroyed for 250 years by Brits and it damaged Indian mentality and its still not recovered as 250 years of rule and hope that it will all be perfect in 70 years.
@@karthikcind1981 we were literally slaves for 250 years it's just that in 1991 manmohan sing opened Indian market for foreign investment we moved our economy and lifestyle little bit.
This guy is a hypocrite. Said that democracy was India's greatest weakness but goes on to say in 2023 that he doesn't mind if dictatorships come to power and wipe themselves along with others(source= TIMES NOW). Flowery words with no substance- rather style without substance is the way to go for Seth it seems.
Proud to born in INDIA ,But few offshoots of britishers still hoping for our balkanization ,But after 2014 loksabha their dream of break india broken into pieces ,We INDIANS should not waste our energy on such elements ,Our development is enough to burn them with jealousy.
Context is lacking here. For all its flaws, India is a tremendous and subtle positive force in the world (unlike some of the terrorist states in that region). Turning around a 1.2 billion person behemoth with one of the most diverse populations anywhere in the world, takes time. Meanwhile, India is really good about NOT terrorizing other countries, and NOT causing the genocide of 300 million native americans, and NOT spreading our values/culture through violent imperialism, in our quest to improve our own bottom line. Anyone that tries to view India through a western lens, or through western language constructs, is missing the point of India, entirely.
Great debate.At this juncture I wish to state that urban voters who are well informed do not take part in polling.Had they cast their votes the country could have fair have representatives.Hence voting should be made compulsory to every voters in India in addition to the suggestion made by Suhel.The very loss of Manishankar elections indicate We Indians do not respect the education qualification and the rich experience one has.
As DR.Ambedkar Who was the President of Indian Constitution Written Committee Know It is the Best Constitution still the person of the govt. who are chosen to practice is good. and If the Person who are practice this constitution is bad this constitution will down the people of India to his history. It is all about the practicing the constitution in manner for what it was return to do..but no political party in India practice true constitution.
When it comes to reforms in the Indian constitutions, the major factor that's hindering it is again the Democracy itself. In a democracy you cannot work without keeping the interests the 1.2 crore Indians that you are talking about. Decision making is always slow in it. Sooner or later we are bound have those reforms. Being in a fool's paradise is totally out of question when it comes to the point that Indian constitution is the best constitution in the world. I really take pride in it.
do not express ur frustration over indians in an english sabha. if u speak good english does not mean you know evrything about democracy & electoral reforms. in reality u know nothing but can only crib in front of the angrez "oh my lord why did you leave me"
It's funny he asked that at the end, I think the British should rule them a second time and clean up the place only this time using todays English, secular norms and values yet still allowing the countries traditions to shine through and I see no reason why they wouldn't allow that. Just an opinion.
He's not wanting the British to come back. What he wants is a Vedic or Indic form of democracy over the Western or American form of democracy which is just anarcho-capitalist consumerism. Our philosophy is the greatest in history, so that should be base in civilizational terms.
This India's Debater speak British English and imitate British English. Now many in India speak British English. Colonial mindset has put India backward. India is failed because it has British colonial past and took British parliamentary system.
