The Jaipur Dialogues Podcasts

Md. Iftikharuddin of the IAS (1985, UP cadre) has been caught with his pyjama down and skull cap on his head. Reprehensible as the exposè is, it does not surprise people in the only Muslim majority ex-State and now an UT, J&K. Tito Ganju, Editor, Epilogue News Network, tells Sanjay Dixit that this is done openly in J&K even today.

The 'unstable' Sidhu has resigned. Resignation has not been accepted. State in charge first planned a visit to Chandigarh to meet him, then they cancelled the trip.

Sanjay Dixit examines the challenge to nullification of Art. 370. The challenge is based on the argument that Art. 370(1) cannot be used to remove Art. 370, that Art. 367 cannot be amended to redefine 'Constituent Assembly', and it could not be done without the elected government being in place. Dixit looks at 5 Constitution Bench Judgments to give his opinion.

Dr. Rajeev Mishra joins Sanjay Dixit to look at the key concepts proposed by Huntington and how they square up in today's situation.

Indians are a successful immigrant community in the US. A majority of them are Hindus. Their contribution is acknowledged but more often than not we are taken for granted! Which party is more amenable and supportive of our concerns and needs?

The time for political correctness seems to be over - at least for these two CMs - Yogi Adityanath and Himanta Biswa Sarma. Yogi became the first political leader in such a position to call the Moplah riots for what they were - a massacre of Hindus by fanatical Muslims of Malabar. Himanta Biswa Sarma, on the other hand, got down to the hard task of removing the encroachments of Bangladeshi Muslims over indigenous lands. Sanjay Dixit explains.

Sushant Sareen joins Sanjay Dixit to look at the geopolitical imperatives for India today, and whether Modi's visit to USA and UNGA made the correct moves towards some of them.

We never had any doubts about the Panchmakkars, but the so-called 'Right Wingers' turning woke and looking at Sanatana traditions and rituals from a Western-Marxist-Individual Rights Lens is a curious phenomenon. Prof. Bharat Gup joins Sanjay Dixit to discuss the regression of such RW Sanatanis from the plane of Consciousness to Intellect and the consequent deracination in the context of the recent Kanyadan advertisement by Maanyavar.

Kaleem Siddiqui of Jamia Imam Waliullah Trust is an alumnus of the same Nadwatul Uloom of Lucknow that the Jaipur Dialogues exposed. He is an expert of Da'wa, the same faculty of which Syed Salman Husseini Nadwi is a Dean of. Sanjay Dixit explains why he is the most important catch in independent India and is equal is status and notoriety to Maulana Saad.

Continuing from a call for changing India's foreign policy towards Pakistan, Sushil Pandit and Dr. Ajay Chrungoo dwell on the fact that Pakistan is not a territory, but is an idea. This fact is very important to understand to be able to understand the activities of the AMM fifth column of Pakistan in India. The tendency of the RW organisations to get duped by Wahiduddins, Saad, and Kalim Siddiqui is linked to this inability to understand the amorphous nature of 'Idea of Pakistan'.

As the Congress moves to commit harakiri in Punjab, Capt. Amarinder has resigned and set the stage for the party's ouster from Punjab for good. BJP too suffered a set back as its MPs have started their march into TMC. BJP's central leadership's abandonment of its workers in West Bengal is coming home to roost, probably beginning of its erosion in WB politics.

Sardar Ravi Ranjan Singh joins Sanjay Dixit to provide encouraging inputs about the progress that has been made in dismantling the Halal monopoly with the sterling efforts of the Indic and Dharmik people.

In the fast changing AfPak theatre, things have moved at a fast pace. Haqqani group staged a coup to oust the Quetta Shura, and putting paid to Western hopes of any inclusivity. TTP has upped the ante, and terror attacks inside Pakistan have increased. India has made its reservation towards recognising Taliban clear, with the West and US likely to follow suit. Add to the comedy of errors the withdrawal of New Zealand from a cricket tour. Major Gaurav Arya, Editor-in-Chief of the Chanakya Forum joins Sanjay Dixit to discuss the issues.

As Narendra Modi proceeds to the USA tomorrow, for a 3-leg visit to attend Quad (China, Afghan, AUKUS, Covid), a bilateral with Biden (CAATSA, Covid and Pakistan) and address to the UN General Assembly (Global security, UNSC reforms, Covid), the wails on Pakistan TV are to be heard to be believed. It appears as if India is snatching away a global power status from Pakistan, which they always seem to have had.

From Capt. Amarinder Singh to crypto Charanjit Singh Channi, is the Congress simply jumping from the fry pan into the fire. Ramnik Mann joins Sanjay Dixit to discuss whether this step of removing the CM so close to the election is likely to have any effect at all, specially when the stamp of Navjot Sidhu carries the risk of Congress being subbed pro-Pakistan.

After the disastrous attempt to destroy things Hindu - what must Hindus do to protect and defend their rich heritage and ‘parampara’! Or are we going to become complacent after this win! The enemies are not sitting idle - they are plotting and planning- may be time to set the house in order!

The entire edifice of prohibition of child marriages is stuck in a legislative quagmire. Prohibition Act lacks teeth, has a gaping hole. Similarly, the Rajasthan Act for Registration of Marriages has a similar hole. The debate should focus on making the laws effective, rather than having them just for form's sake. Sanjay Dixit discusses.

In the 2nd Episode of Lessons from Hindu History by Sandeep Balakrishna, he tells Sanjay Dixit two more lessons to be learnt - 1. Hindu Generosity syndrome that turned brilliant strategic victories into defeats, 2. The origins of Hinduphobia.

He joins up with Vibhuti Jha and Sanjay Dixit to talk about a holistic strategy to counter the anti-India propaganda in the West, particularly in North America.

The Rahul-Priyanka bravado is likely going to boomerang on the Italian family. Punjab's suspect operation has only created more problems in Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh. The Italian dynasty is eager to show that they are in command. The exhibitionism is going to make their fate worse than ever. The inimitable Bhau Torsekar and veteran Omkar Chaudhary join Sanjay Dixit to discuss the new assertive turn in Congress politics.

Syed Suleiman Hussaini Nadwi, the influential cleric of the Nadwa seminary of Lucknow, which is a Deoband style seminary has come out fully with his Pakistan agenda of separatism. Like the new Jinnah, he is telling Muslims not to vote for any Hindu led parties but to vote for Muslims only. Fayaz Ahmad Fyzie is with Sanjay Dixit and he calls it the latest Ashraf separatist tactic towards compartmentalising India again.

Even as Economy recovers strongly after the Covid shock, the clueless opposition continues to attack the Modi govt. on all the wrong issues, such as asset monetisation, and of course the farm laws. Added to that are the smaller issues of privatisation of public sector, and maybe they will also have a problem with the breather given to the telecom sector yesterday. Harsh Vardhan Tripathi, the well known broadcaster, joins Sanjay Dixit to discuss one of the two silver linings in the Modi 2.0 dispensation. (The other being Covid handling).

Even as Manish Sisodia and Sanjay Singh take out Tiranga Yatra in Ayodhya and promise to bring Rama Rajya in UP, the Kalnemi CM Arvind Kejriwal once again bans firecrackers in Delhi, saying that he wants to save lives. These lives were not his concern when he was allowing Oxygen, concentrators and medicines to be stockpiled by his own MLAs and friends, and was only concerned with putting his own government in the dock. Sanjay Dixit exposes his duplicity.

Indian Foreign Policy towards territorial Pakistan has been characterised by 2 maxims, i.e. We cannot choose our neighbours, and a stable Pakistan is in India's interests. The territorial Pakistan, on the other hand, follows the Quranic Concept of War. There is the other ideational Pakistan within Indian territory, towards which the Indian State has a laissez faire policy, even as the AMM class is firmly set on its long term policy of conquering India through various forms of Jihad. Sushil Pandit and Dr. Ajay Chrungoo join Sanjay dixit to argue for a reset in policies of Indian govt..

Jayant Kalawar, a Life coach with deep studies in European Enlightenment and Advaita Vedanta as well as in inter-relations between Physics and Social Theory, joins Sanjay Dixit and Vibhuti Jha to propose a new framework to rescue the world through Hindutva.

In the first episode of JD Legal, Sanjay Dixit discusses two recent developments, first the Tamil Nadu Bill to exempt the Medical students of TN from NEET and its constitutional validity, and second the issue that the Supreme court is discussing in the 3-Judge Bench of Justices Rao, Khana, and Gavai regarding making provisions for reservation in promotion for SC/ST in the light of the 9-Judge Bench Judgment of Indra Sawhney, and 5-Judge Bench Judgments in M Nagaraj and Jarnail Singh.

Uttarakhand is witnessing a change in demography through systematic land grabs by funnelling Zakat Money. At the same time, the people who were at the helm in Uttarakhand say that 20 cr cannot be pushed into the Ocean, making it an excuse for keeping their eyes closed. This is also impacting BJP's electoral prospects in the State.

Sandeep Balakrishna begins a 5-Episode series on '10 Lessons from Hindu History' with Sanjay Dixit. In the first episode, he talks about 2 lessons - 1. Loss of Aryavarta Consciousness, and 2. Lack of Correct Identification of a New Enemy.

Minorityism in India is basically majoritarianism of big minorities, specially the largest minority, which should rightfully be called the 2nd majority. Sachwala and Azad Ground, belonging to a miniscule minority of ex-Muslims cannot come out in the open because of the threat to them by this majoritarian minority that still believes in capital punishment for apostates (Q16.106). They join Sanjay Dixit to discuss this contradiction, which would not exist in a HIndu Rashtra, but continues in a secular State.

Abbajaan is a perfectly parliamentary Urdu word for father, then why does Yogi remark on children of different Abbas drawing so much flak from the Panchmakkars? Sanjay Dixit traces Yogi's first dig on Akhilesh with that jibe and how the term has caused consternation from SP and Congress to Owaisi and Liberal-Leftist-Islamist axis.

Abhijit Chavda joins Sanjay Dixit to cull out seven important lessons from Indian History that should go into informing every walk of political, cultural, social and economic life. Starting from Maharani Nayaki Devi and Prithviraj Chauhan letting the terrorist Mohammad Ghori to escape with his life to the present day.

In a departure from convention, a Sikh, Iqbal Singh Lalpura has been appointed as Chairman of the Minorities Commission, called NCM.

However, Dr. Ambedkar said that by their very faith, a mussulman can never accept India as his motherland, and Veer Savarkar said that this 'third party syndrome' of the British being responsible for Muslim-Hindu divide is a Congress superstition that led to many of its errors. Sanjay Dixit tries to find out which of these 3 are correct!
