Citizens or Beneficiaries? | Report Card Series | Ep09

- It is common for politicians across the board to refer to rights and entitlement holders as ‘beneficiaries’ instead of calling them ‘rights-holders’ or citizens. Such a term makes the government appear to be like a feudal lord doling out charity to people instead of an elected body meant to honor rights of people. The Narendra Modi led NDA government has taken this a few notches higher and has derogatorily referred to many rights as ‘freebies’ and has either diluted social security measures or has made inflated claims about its welfare programmes. The union government’s contribution to old age pensions, for instance, has been stagnant at Rs 200 per person per month for a decade. In this video, we demonstrate the exaggerated claims made by Narendra Modi regarding its flagship programmes of Swacch Bharat Abhiyan and Digital India. We show how alive people have been declared dead and denied pensions by the use of untested technologies. We then show the number of civilian deaths that have happened due to unplanned policies implemented by Narendra Modi without any consultation even with state governments. Taking cognisance of such autocratic and even cruel decisions by Narendra Modi, we end with a call that India needs a ‘serving’ Prime Minister and not a ‘ruling’ Prime Minister.

"You're not here to rule, you're here to serve." Truer words have never been spoken before!!
Starting मे.. M आपको देशद्रोही समझता था.. Ye क्या देशद्रोही तो मेरा अपना मोदी निकला
He is a patriotic indian who is speaking for his nation
Kaash yeh log pehle hi kunal ki comedy samajh paate🥲
If there was no Kunal, Dhruv and few others, there wouldn't have been an opposition to the Govt. and a voice to the people of this country.
साहिब ने कुणाल के शो बैन करवाए तो कुणाल डिटेल सर्व रिपोर्ट ले आया। अब साहेब को समझ नहीं आ रहा है ज्यादा खतरनाक कौन है? कॉमेडी के नाम पर लपेटता हुआ कुणाल या असली पत्रकारिता करता हुआ कुणाल। इसी सिचुएशन को कहते हैं कि न निगलते बनता है और न थूकते। वाह कुणाल जी वाह❤
You are doing commendable work, my brother. There is no shame in exposing the deceitful tactics of the ruling party. However, the heartbreaking reality is that the less fortunate have been neglected under this current government.
I started watching your video after the recommendation of Dhruv rathi sir
"You're not here to rule, you're here to serve." this one message all politician need to understand ... Whether it BJP or Congress .....
Damn that line:"We want a serving PM not a ruling PM" so true man!
truly said, India needs Serving PM not Ruling PM...
I'm not even Indian, but this takes great courage and guts to actually take a stand and speak up that too with facts against ruling government. I hope the nation does understand you're with them and not against.
तुझे सर्वच व्हिडिओ अत्यंत अभ्यासपूर्ण असून आजच्या देशाची परिस्थिती तू अत्यंत प्रखरपणे मांडतो आहेस.
I m Big Big fan Kunal kamra sir 🙏🙏
You are not here to rule but to serve.. True words...
Thanks Kunal for revealing the truth❤
Aapko raja nhi bnne denge PM ji ,apne nagrik hone ki baat karenge is hitting me more😮😮
कुणाल, ही series इतकी उत्कृष्ट आहे की त्याची quality कोणत्याही international रिपोर्ट series chi बरोबरी करेल.
This reminds me of a quote by Martin Luther: "No one is hated more than he who speaks the truth".
I was aware of this truth,poor are the main sufferers bcz of this system, it was very hard for them to link aadhar/ voter, they had very less to no knowledge of digital system, have no digital device access or cafe access due to least income. People from slum who actually need the PDS system are the neglected one from their right to food.
