Last night for 5 hrs had a phone conversation with a Bhaajipao friend, coming back to India after a yr in US. Here are some main highlights and my observations. Do enjoy @shri_v @frontierindica @Grimmzov @Rishikesh4590 @adarshrjha @Infinitchy @KBAJBT9 @chitrapadhi @Kaalateetham

So chatting began with normal discussion then it turn into Customs & Fiscal currency flow. He was justifying that heavy Custom is neccesary for maintaining difference between Dollar & Rupee and strengthening rupee in international mkt.

but was silent on reducing heavy custm on high precision scientific instruments. was saying that this'll kill indian competitions, though there is no indian company making high precision scientific instruments. so he jumps into deal of Tata & Apple where they make IPhone in India

i could not understand how can third grade service providing company will make IPhone for Apple. he was adamant that in next five yr becoz of tech transfer & royalty removal, Tata will be able to make Indian Mobile phones. by the way only 1 Semi-Foundary cost $3-4 B!!!!!

Then he came to Iran Chabhar port deal where is was good for India to not complete the proj. He said that by lengthening Indians are infilterating into Baloch & Afganistan. I told him that Modiji canceled the separatist movement in Baloch but he defended that

it was for making india good in eyes of west but secretely india is doing very good there. indian RAW agents are infilterating Pak via Chabhar. i told him that Afgan are killing hindus but he was saying that - "Kuch nahi se kuch to acha hai".

then I asked abt current sikh issue and CAA like violence here in India. told him abt raising M in Indian Admin so he was blaming hindus for not preparing well and lack of competitive spirit in hindus. he was accepting the fact that there are some "Bad M" & many are "Good M".....

i questioned him regarding the 1 lakh assistance to M candidate which he defended by saying that they are atleast clearing the pre... he started blaming that no hindu social grp provide educational need to poors and all hindu temples are filling there treasury.

now discussion becoming murkier. he started comparing the caged Temples with tax free and independant SGPC saying SGPC is taking good care of sikhs with overlooking the corruptions & Jatt sikhs monopoly in them. Again bashing hindu temple without considering boundations over them

As I pointed out the Gov interference in Temple administration he pointed out that due to corruption by Pandits it is neccesary. He also included Katha Vachaks in this temple debate!!!
now for devotee also he blamed the common hindus as they donate to temple for Show-Off

While Shikhs were donating for humanetarian cause and their own welfare. Irony just hanged herself...
I asked him for the solution, so he propagated A Central body like SGPC to govern all temples and control them. I questioned him about RSS as those people are in power

and hold many positions in Temple trusts across India. He defended by saying that RSS is a Social Org over which I asked that what a difference between religious org vs social org. he was silent and saying that social and political orgs are organs of a religious org....

so now I asked who controls RSS if its a social org, over which he said that none control RSS. Then he changed the topic that we need a central body for control over which i referred him about 4 Mathas which he directly rejected saying -

they are useless as they could not saved hindus during mugal rule. he said Babar came and destroyed Raam Mandir, over which i corrected him later. He was adamant that before RSS all hindus are leaderless forrest dweller having no self control/power.

He said it was guru nanak who united lower caste and sikhs are highly strong intra-grp ties but he was silent when i quoted him that all gurus are Brahmins and Khatris. He later changed the subject to Lesbianism and Gay marriage by saying they should be legalised

he wants multiple marriage for hindu men as it will decrease divorce cases and family problems. he was saying women are by default prone to Lesbianism and multiple wives of a men will solve this problem. he wants gays marriage to be included into Hindu code bill.

Many other things were also discussed in this 5 hr conversation. will post remaining in next thread.....
