Amid growing furore, Second part of BBC documentary on PM Modi airs in UK | Oneindia News*Explainer
The second part of a new BBC documentary titled 'India: The Modi Question', aired in the United Kingdom last evening.
The first part of this very documentary had been blocked by India earlier last week using "emergency powers".
A huge controversy had erupted in India over the first episode of this two-part series which tracked PM Narendra Modi's rise through the ranks of the BJP and his appointment as chief minister of Gujarat.
It had also revisited his role in the 2002 Gujarat riot which had broken out after 59 Hindu pilgrims died on a train that was set on fire.
In this video, we explain what were those emergency provisions India had resorted to in order to to block the airing of this documentary and whether this was just a one-off instance or whether there have been precedents to such actions by the government.
But before that, don’t forget to like, share and subscribe to Oneindia.
In an exclusive conversation with OneIndia News, Vlada Galan – Geopolitical Strategist; President & Chair, International Ukrainian Crisis Fund, says that Trump used India as a Pawn to pressure Putin into a Summit. Vlada however clears that the sanctions on India were nothing personal against India and only a pressure-tactic against Putin, which played a role to some extent to get the Alaska meeting in place.

During the live coverage of the historic Trump–Putin meeting in Alaska, a heated debate broke out between Burzine Waghmar SOAS, University of London, and journalist Nagen Singh of OneIndia News. Waghmar argued that Russia’s economy is overheated and claimed Putin cannot sustain the Ukraine war beyond a year. He also questioned India’s obsession with Moscow and the romanticization of Indo-Russian ties. Countering him, Singh accused the West of hypocrisy and blamed the UK and U.S. for India’s deep-rooted closeness with Russia.

In an exclusive conversation with OneIndia, Political Analyst Dr. Ümit Nazmi Hazır, says tat there cannot be any solution without Ukraine’s representation and Europe’s opinion too. Dr. Umit express hope that there will be a second meeting soon referring to Putin’s comments that he is ready to meet Zelensky if the conditions are right. Political Commentator Cliston Brown reiterates the meeting will not yield anything, and even as there are meetings after meetings, the war continues and that is what Putin wants.

In an exclusive conversation with OneIndia, Burzine Waghmar – SOAS, University of London, says that he is not very optimistic of the meeting delivering any big deals or breakthroughs in the meeting. Waghmar adds that this meeting is just a precursor to a second meeting between Putin & Trump, possibly in Moscow and even a trilateral meeting which could involve Putin, Trump and Zelensky.

In an exclusive conversation with OneIndia News, Vlada Galan – Geopolitical Strategist; President & Chair, International Ukrainian Crisis Fund, says that Putin is running short of time and this time around Trump has called out his bluff. Vlada adds that Putin will suffer consequences as Trump is not afraid to impose secondary sanctions on Russia's largest trading partners. Vlada says that Putin is aware that he can't 'make a 'fool' out of Trump and hence there could be a breakthrough at the Summit
