00:00You know, the point remains, one would expect everyone to be on the same page, keeping India first.
00:05But the second part of this debate, look, the International Monetary Fund, IMF,
00:10is talking about India's GDP growth forecast at 7% even for 2027, 2627.
00:17The IMF in the World Economic Outlook report says, and I quote,
00:23India stands out with upward revisions, reflecting sustained momentum and growing evidence of a stronger growth potential,
00:33supported by favourable demographic dynamics, a large and expanding domestic market and continued structural reforms.
00:42But what are headlines in India and about India overseas?
00:47They're being dominated by street protests and political confrontation.
00:51From the marches against the CEC to Cockroach Janata Party agitation over the electoral roll,
00:58the mobilisation seems to have become a parallel arena of political power.
01:03And now there's a Fox News report that set the cat among pigeons.
01:09This report details how a transnational network of, according to this report,
01:15left-wing organisations, activist groups and media platforms,
01:19that together amplifying recent student protests in France and the current unrest in India.
01:27The report states that foreign-funded leftist networks are fuelling protests in India.
01:32The report points to an alleged international network backing leftist organisations and protest movements.
01:38At the centre, according to the report, is a US-born businessman, Nevel Roy Singham.
01:46Now, Nevel Roy Singham is accused of channelling millions into left-wing organisations and propaganda networks.
01:53The report links these alleged funding networks to student mobilisation in India
01:59and draws parallels with protests in France and in Greece.
02:03The report sheds new light on the growing trend of Sadak Par Faisla,
02:09with political battles increasingly spilling onto the streets.
02:13In some instances, as you watch in these images, you have a lot more that's happening.
02:20The government says, Rahul Gandhi, leader of opposition, should explain,
02:27is he leading a band of anarchists?
02:31Look at these images.
02:33Rahul Gandhi, Priyanka Gandhi, Vardra, walking alongside Neha Bora,
02:38AISA president, whose organisation is affiliated with the CPIML.
02:42Now, the Liberation March also threw up some visuals,
02:47as you see on your television screen, you know, people being pushed around,
02:52including the chief minister of Karnataka.
02:54Of course, he has today told India today that he was not being pushed around,
02:59but Rahul Gandhi was advising him to move to a bus for safety.
03:04But again, that question that's being asked,
03:05why this special spotlight on an AISA activist?
03:09A visible face of the CJP-associated protest movement,
03:14the lady's presence alongside the Gandhi's siblings raises a question.
03:18Is Rahul Gandhi bringing a left-linked student activist
03:23into the Congress street mobilisation?
03:26And if so, why?
03:27The optics are very significant.
03:29The Congress's focus is on electoral roles,
03:32institutional accountability, wealth inequality,
03:35caste census overlaps with themes pushed by these organisations,
03:40the left-wing organisations, critics see this as an ideological shift
03:45that's now out in the open.
03:47Congress, of course, could argue that they're building
03:49a broader opposition coalition against the government.
03:52But then, there are allegations that are now being made over
03:55external influence and openly.
03:57So, for example, on the 10th of November,
03:59you had BJP President Nitin Nabeen accusing the India bloc
04:03and the CJP-led protests to serving foreign interests.
04:08At the India Today conclave in Mumbai,
04:10Union Parliamentary Affairs Minister
04:12and Minority Minister Kiran Rijiju,
04:15he warned of alleged foreign influence.
04:19And you also have voices like the Bihar governor,
04:22Lefton General Syed Atta Hasnen,
04:24in an exclusive fireside chat with me
04:26at the same India Today conclave in Mumbai,
04:29he flagged a wider non-military threat
04:32that our nation faces as our stature grows,
04:36economically and strategically.
04:39And very recently, you had Legal Eagle Hari Salve.
04:41He raised claims of foreign funding.
04:44Mahesh Jaitmalani urged closer scrutiny of funding,
04:49that funds that are coming into India,
04:51there should be closer scrutiny under FCRA.
04:54But then, there's another debate.
04:55The India story, the economic rise.
04:59IMF raising India's financial year 2027 growth
05:02from 6.4 to 7%.
05:05They're citing resilient domestic demand,
05:07strong service activities,
05:08structural strengths of Indian economy.
05:10Is that now in the line of fire?
05:13All of these are very critical points.
05:17Is India's economic rise drawing attempts
05:20to undermine India's stability from outside
05:23and from within?
05:25Our powers at play here.
05:28That's a critical question that is being asked.
05:31But first, listen in to Union Minister Kiran Rajiju,
05:34Bihar governor, General Syed Atta Hasnen,
05:35and Legal Legal Harish Salve.
05:39We believe that we are in the truth.
05:41We will follow the truth.
05:42We will move on and call the country.
05:44Now India is very quickly coming in.
05:46This is the increase of the journey of Hindustan,
05:49the Virgisit Baharat's journey.
05:52For those who are going to stop the country,
05:53there are some forces in the country that are speaking open.
05:56Some people come from the country,
05:58some of us are Indians.
05:59They come from the country,
06:01and come from the country.
06:03They come from the country.
06:04They come from the country.
06:05Some people come from the country,
06:25India is the fastest growing big economies in the world.
06:42The world of social media is all about divisiveness. How to create divisions in society? How to use that? And
06:50you don't have to be sitting in India to do that. You can be sitting in any part of the
06:54globe and effect it. Execute your plans.
06:56Cyber security, for that matter. Fake currency. People who are not happy to see India's economic growth will be always
07:05wishing to induct loads and loads of fake currency into India.
07:10So, to my mind, we have to be very careful about the non-military threats, much more than the military
07:17threats.
07:18This prize is funded from outside. It is motivated from outside. It is motivated from outside. And this country, especially
07:31in America, is a great joy in India.
07:33It is motivated from outside. And that day, our finance minister has also told us that there are free trade
07:42agreements.
07:42And with Canada, there is also a lot of advance.
07:46And when I asked about America, they told us that this is a plateau.
07:49There are also a lot of advance.
07:51We will do it again, otherwise we will do it again, otherwise we will do it again.
