Wonder why journalists are not asking tough questions to Dulat.
1. In 1990, there was significant reports that the kidnapping of Rubiya Sayed was stagemanaged. The incident was used by Mufti to release many hardened terrorists who later executed the ISI policy to cleanse the valley of Kashmiri Pundits. Dulat plays the Mehbooba song of blaming Jagmohan but does not even mention the trigger.
2. He mentions Robin Raphael but not the question of her being an ISI agent in Washington. Apparently, she needed a Presidential pardon to stop investigation into her assets and their finances as much was preliminarily traced to ISI.
3. Dulat comes across as a Musharaff admirer. Musharaff only kept traping Indian governments into giving unilateral concessions while continuing to support terrorism. He was finally forced out by the Americans funding his removal protests due to his policy of clandestinely supporting terror while accepting American funds to fight terror.
Absolutely agree. He hides all blunders, communalization of valley society, Kashmiri civil society's romance with terrorism, shameful horrible collaboration with terrorist in ethnic cleansing of KPs. He gives clean chit to muftis and infatuated with Abdullas. He also gives clean chit to ISI for its role in KP driving out of valley. The sheer ungrateful nature of Kashmiri valley who quietly loot excessive Central help and are always alienated and biting theb hand that fed them. J&K contribution to national income but received maximum aid and still hate Indians. The Danda given by NSA Dival was badly needed to drill sanity in this society.
True, these things gives me felling that, elite people park their minds away from reality
for people at the highest and secretive positions, there are no favorites. they will observe and learn from everyone - mushraff, the americans, etc. mushraff won his game against india even if they didnt win too much territory - they took lives and once more exposed the stupidity of the indian intelligentsia largely stifled by spineless politicians and inadequate resources in a world env. that was hostile to india - it was the 80's and 90's , before the sw boom and liberalization that got in intl biz into the country. and yes - the indian crab mentality never goes away AND his own admission of being 'operational incompetent'!
A truly Sly Spymaster.
Ii
We really don't know what you mean by stellar career. Mr Dulat was IB's man in Kashmir when exodus of kashmiri pandits happened. He was IB's special director and incharge of Pak desk when kargil happened. He was R&AW chief when kandhar hijacking happened. And he was in PMO when parliament attack happened. Don't you feel there is too much of coincidence.
look into RN kao biography maybe u find coincidence there too
Bjp was government that time
No wonder why there was so much of bloodshed in 1990s you were such a cluless guy and still is
He is most casual , ill-informed , pathological bad officer🎭🎭😭😭
This govt babus are curse on india🥲
2 million subscribers and still there's no topic wise time stamp in the video.
The birds of entitlement flock around Rahul.
No such documents should come out from R&AW, IB and Defence minister. This is what I feel
Amarjit Dulat does not want to make anyone unhappy. He is happy that his books are selling well.
Talks about Kasjmir in 80s and 90s but totally ignores the forced KP exodus when he was based in Kashmir. Defines Dulat and his ilk to the T.
Dulat, the worst guy i saw in intelligence. His book Kashmir was such a farce.
Superb interview Praveen. This shows how important is the quality of interviewer, not just the interviewee for a great conversation.
No where near to great…. Not even 1 tough question… this guy is a bufoon!
Interesting talk PS... Thanks
Have read Dulat’s book on Kashmir. Will read this book as well. Looking forward to it!
Ah, Farookh Abdullah's man in delhi. I am not saying this, he himself claimed it.
should be in jail.
Great interview
Thank you The Print for getting such an incredible personality of Indian intelligence onboard that to twice in a week... it's pure bliss to listen to him. 🇮🇳🙏
This man is traitor , who published his book with Pakistani ISI retired chief , what a shame ,
@@shailendrapatil9836 so true…. You gotta remember… it will never be a 2 side war… you always have internal elements like Daulat! Make it a 2.5 side war! Jutte se petai honi chahiye daulat ki!
“Cobweb of the mind. Threat is from the right, not from Communism” - words that seem to come STRAIGHT from the Comintern & KGB.
Earlier policies were to pamper Hurriyat and a communications channel was always in place with numerous meetings with all stakeholders finally, the results were zero. After 2014 what we called "Dovel doctrine" with an iron fist, the Hurriyat ecosystem was demolished, the stone pelters were out and for the first time, millions of tourists went to Kashmir.
Daulat should be ashamed of himself
amazing talk!
1. Why did AD colab with the ex ISI chief for a book?
2. Why does AD take a pic with 2 alleged honey trappers of ISI?
3. Why did AD and his family go shopping in London along with the family of ISI chief?
4. Why is AD vary of Doval's ambition, being ambitious is okay?
5. Why is AD comparing himself with the popularity of Doval with his ex boss? Was AD then competing?
6. SG, why don't you and reporters like you ask tough questions to such people? Tough questions are for the ruling parties?
An Intelligence professional with a political axe to grind is actually akin to a subversionist. Intelligence guys can't be the one who dictate what actions to be taken with the intelligence collected! It's a great relief that things have matured and more professional now.
He was the head of The Intelligence and does not know any thing ? Either he is a Duffer or he is Lying
Daulat was failed in all jobs .
Hello Praveen, Nice one. Though the interview deserves double the time that was given. We can also do with little less interruptions. The elder gentleman deserves to be allowed an uninterrupted flow. You could edit-out things post the recording. When the interruptions are too many it becomes like TV Interview or Jyothy Malhotra's Interview 🙂
Guys just for reference, this guy joined RGs Bharat jodo yatra yesterday, now you can take his words in context, he is part of the same lutyens Delhi who allowed KP genocide to happen.
Please check the audio quality before recording, Praveen's voice is echoing coz of dual mics.
😂😂😂😂😂
Dulat...wasn't he chummy with his counterpart across the border?
Insightful. Many people misunderstand him.
He cannot be trusted .
Tum he logo ne desh ki ye halat ki hai. Samajh ata hai
PS is awesome find by TP
J&K police and state administration was full of moles and under this Govt cleanup started and Govt has been successful,still, some lone wolf exists to carry out "assigned activities"..
1. AD is mking a serious point that our counter intelligence may be not up to the mark now. We have so many foreign funded anti national initiatives going on with the help of 'jaichands' in our country and somehow IB or RAW or military intelligence is clue less. 2. AD is no doubt Abdullah 'chmacha' and one wonders he himself was a security risk!! Pravin asks him questions phrased very politely but the point is the same- he was favoring secessionists rather than hard action. He was chasing chimera that Pakistan will mend its ways and secessionist Kashmiris will give up anti India feelings. 3. Pravin bowls a google to Dulat when he asks him if he would write a book on what he did in Kashmir!! Perhaps that itself could be a spook played on us.
Inefficient, incompetent,worthless and solely responsible for situation in Kashmir. He has failed to understand Kashmiri psyche. It is Modi ji and Doval who set the things right
Currently i am reading the book of AS Dulat
As much as I appreciate him on his detailing on the major issues of the 80s and 90s especially how India lost control over kathmandu due to the negligence of Indian government, I think he has a rather soft corner for pakistan. As much as I have respect for him but his way of whitewashing pakistan's image is kinda pissing me off.
He also criticized the rather hadline approach by the current government's way of controlling militancy in kashmir. According to him militants and terrorists should be used for gathering intelligence and not executed, but we have to understand this firm policy of the previous government's was a major setback which eventually resulted in increase of militancy.
We haven't heard of any major militancy in kashmir valley since many years and I appreciate the current government's approach towards that.
And I also thank AS Dulat for his point of views as well it helped me to understand what were actually the issues that caused the insurgencies on that time
Two Pakistan and Taliban loving people having a chat, what a great show.
A Traitor beyond Compare. A Key Conspirator who was responsible for the Genocide of Hindus in Kashmir. His closest friends were the ISI with whose chief he wrote a book
Why narayana made governor.? From nsa
I still remember how Kashmir burns while he was raw chief...and cozy up with Pakistani
Isko phir Bula Liya...bhai nhi sunna iski backwas paise diye hain kya isne tumhe
Stellar career😂
Praveen swami is one awesome journalist..I used to read all spy stuff he used to write in Hindu paper..
Dulat was a failure as RAW chief. Probably the weakest link in national security of his time.
Israel's role in Indian Affairs is being deliberately ignored!!!
What's a DIB?
Director -Intelligence Bureau, I guess.
I don’t agree with Doval on Kashmir.. but he’s right on Abdullah’s .. They are free bees 🐝
The deep fracture was there when he was at power .. not now.,
i am drunk Af did i hear espionage as an effective stool at 1:26
Just a suggestion - If you are taking notes, it's better to just type it into a laptop rather than try to write on a book
The only remaining outstanding issue regarding Kashmir is the return of POK by Pakistan to India. Pakistan should also return to India Kashmir's Shaksgam valley . In 1963 Pakistan had sold / gifted to China 8000 km of Shaksgam valley
Ms Aarti Tikkoo has exposed this man thoroughly. Question is - What was the agenda of this man?
Masterpiece
Praveen swami seems anti doval editor I guess if he is doubting that Mr Doval was key to operation Thunder storm I think he should leave this work
Fantastic !! Daulat + Praveen ❤
Also this is the first time I have seen your left hand, dear Praveen 😂
Bore and overcautious with mixed outcome..Firmly believe things were spoiled because of all 'back channel' talks..Pak's threat was deliberately made larher than life by our incompetent officials.
Both of you look alike you know
Long live Dulat Sir.
Jai Hind.
You must be a muslim with a fake ID or a congressi. No wonder you are a cheergirl for an enemy mole
He is a bitter old man who knows his policy of appeasement failed. Doval fixed it and that upsets him.
He is a traitor
This is openly criticised Mr Doval , he is traitor ,
Iss adami ko limelight main rehne ke siva koi kaam nahi......apni books sell karne ka chakar hai...
He has said nothing or he has nothing to say?
I disliked this video.
Praveen is subtly trying to portray that Ajit Doval's Golden Temple operation was a fake & mythical one. A.S. Dulat showed statesmanship in answering the question.
Low standards of journalism.
This man is quite a softy for an intelligence chap
Speak softly but carry a large stick.
@@mithunkartha but this guy didn't carry any stick..... He has said same in other interviews
He is traitor
old officers will defend their own ways, dont welcome any new initiative
The book is hardly worthy.....he loves farooq....musharaf.....so his presentation of kashmir policy is as per his vision.
This man just trying to sell his book
Please start print hindi channel
Please create jobs in India , surprisingly there are no jobs in India , please follow Canada model of job creation . please appoint an economist to create jobs in india . there are no jobs in main cities of india .
ISI Stooge's memoirs
This fellow is 0.1% useful to INDIA. Just given post because he works like congress party fellow,no wonder he joined political party now.
DId nothing for nation or its security or to protect national intrest, People can sense who works for nation and who enriches using nation.
The print walo sun lo agar tum sache imandar ho to mager gaurav arya ko bulao ak bar
World should officially recognised Kashmir as part of PAKISTAN
Kashmir is an integral part of Pakistan whether someone likes it or not
india is a natural country with geographical features as its boundaries. pakistan is artificial with man made agreed boundaries. its agreed boundary did not include kashmir, so kashmir is not its part. this has nothing to do with religion, wishes of kashmiris, etc. the only territory of pakistan is the one with which it was created by mutual agreement.
Are you sure not part of China?
Guys just for reference, this guy joined RGs Bharat jodo yatra yesterday, now you can take his words in context, he is part of the same lutyens Delhi who allowed KP genocide to happen.
