[00:00:00] where we will talk about everything from AI to entrepreneurship, [00:00:03] from sports to cinema and from comedy to [00:00:07] politics. [00:00:07] BMC [00:00:14] 570% is going to impose tax on these theaters [00:00:18] that will be played in Mumbai 70% more. So what is your take on [00:00:21] that, ma'am? Who will watch films then? No one is watching them anyway. Really, [00:00:25] if you have to go to watch a film, your two-three thousand rupees will be easily spent. Popcorn alone costs a thousand. Who [00:00:28] will eat it? Going to a theater is such an [00:00:32] expensive experience now. And it's also very classist, I must [00:00:35] say, because those single screens are gone. So you've already [00:00:39] alienated your audience. There are a lot of people who find going to a [00:00:43] theater very intimidating, because they feel that they don't [00:00:47] fit in there. So you have already alienated them, and this is very sad, it shouldn't be [00:00:50] the case. Is social media censorship needed today? [00:00:53] Absolutely, but how will we do this, because [00:00:57] there are so many faceless bots, or people who [00:01:00] don't take accountability. They will question you about your looks, [00:01:04] about 50 things, when these are the people whose [00:01:08] bio says "live and let live". [00:01:11] But whenever they talk about someone else, they talk in a very [00:01:15] dirty way. So I genuinely feel it is [00:01:19] time to take accountability. Until there is that fear of law, [00:01:23] that person will not change. And it's not just public figures, [00:01:26] there are many such people, especially girls whose accounts [00:01:30] are open. They get so many messages from boys who say [00:01:33] bad things. We are still older, we know how to tackle it, but the younger people, the younger [00:01:37] generation, they even take wrong steps. [00:02:06] three people raised their hands for fast bowling. [00:02:53] girls who had declared on the internet that we are [00:02:57] quitting. The kind [00:03:00] of effect cyber crime is having on the impressionable minds of [00:03:04] youngsters. Cyber crime is no longer a crime, cyber crime has [00:03:07] now turned into cyber terrorism. AIIMS, [00:03:10] JNPT, cyber security departments, IB, [00:03:14] RAW, all have been victims of cyber attacks, and let me tell you, when [00:03:17] India launched Operation Sindoor in the aftermath of [00:03:21] Pahalgam, India faced more than 10 [00:03:24] lakh cyber attacks, and out of those, [00:03:28] about 1% were also successful. [00:03:30] The government could not present [00:03:36] If you are advertising pan gutka, then first you [00:03:39] eat it, right? Make your children eat it. Let it [00:03:43] be a habit. If you are saying that it contains saffron, then you would want to eat saffron, [00:03:47] right? So let them eat it. Eat it in your family, then tell other people. Why [00:03:51] why other way [00:04:41] efficient, to remain up to mark, its [00:04:44] mobility must be the best, and that is the [00:04:48] target which we have kept in mind. So, whatever work is remaining [00:04:52] now should be completed in the next two to three years, and in that, our [00:04:56] transport experience is going to [00:05:00] substantially change. Connecting with today's youth, how much civic sense [00:05:03] they have, and what can our youth do to keep Mumbai clean, [00:05:07] and tidy? I think first everyone should own their city. [00:05:10] We clean our houses [00:05:42] had come and their movement became so big [00:05:46] that a minister had to go home. So there is a voice, [00:05:49] there is a platform, it is being heard, but is an opportunity being given? [00:05:53] Yes, an opportunity is being given. What the youth think is being implemented. [00:05:57] If it were being heard, then we would not have had to [00:06:00] come out on the streets. So I think the proof is in the [00:06:03] pudding. We are the people who are willing to [00:06:07] question the old system that we don't believe in, and we [00:06:11] can't always do that from home. That's why we come out on the road. So when we come out on the road, [00:06:14] people notice that children have come out on the street. First of all, [00:06:18] the question is why did children have to come out on the street instead of school, [00:06:22] instead of colleges, instead of institutions? I [00:06:25] want to move to digital media a bit. On digital platforms, during the Jantar Mantar [00:06:29] movement, after that, a very big question arose regarding [00:06:33] whether this time elections will be fought on Instagram? [00:06:37] Because even political parties have to come on that platform. [00:06:39] 12 years ago, 13 years ago. [00:07:12] unique in 2013 we have 250 unique today. This [00:07:16] is what builds India's image. Our country had 250 startups, according to DPIIT [00:07:20] data. Today there are 24,000 startups in the country. This is what builds our country's [00:07:24] image. The youth in tier 2, tier 3 cities are [00:07:27] aspirational, they want to create startups, they want to go and innovate. [00:07:31] This is what builds our image. The world feels India is a bright spot. [00:07:35] We were a fragile five economy in 2013. We became a fantastic five [00:07:39] economy in 2026. Freedom [00:10:03] dilemma stage whether we need to choose safe [00:10:06] career or your passion? So I can [00:10:09] suggest if you are very passionate about doing something, [00:10:13] so definitely you should try, otherwise you will have that [00:10:16] regret with you, not doing it. If someone believes [00:10:19] you, you work hard and prove them they are right. If [00:10:23] someone doesn't believe in you, [00:10:47] I think it's a very good time to be an entrepreneur in the country because you have [00:10:51] the whole ecosystem, you have resources, you have ChatGPT [00:10:55] Crow, it can teach you the basics of what entrepreneurship is, even [00:10:59] if you do not have any background in it. You can learn everything from coding to how a [00:11:02] manufacturing machine works, all at your own level. [00:11:06] You have resources for financial backing, you just have to find [00:11:09] it. [00:12:55] The two biggest faces of Uttar Pradesh politics [00:12:59] are face to face: Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and Samajwadi Party [00:13:02] President Akhilesh Yadav. The battlefield is Ayodhya. [00:13:06] Yogi and Akhilesh [00:13:10] are preparing to weigh each other's political power in the scales of victory and defeat. [00:13:13] They are taking the name of Ayodhya, the city of Lord [00:13:17] Shri Ram, for this duel. Shri Ram Jai Ram [00:13:21] Jai Jai Ram. Ever [00:13:25] since we have declared [00:13:28] our candidate, [00:13:30] the Bharatiya Janata Party is conducting [00:13:33] surveys after surveys and is falling behind in every [00:13:36] survey. [00:13:39] It is being heard that [00:13:41] they are not even able to find [00:13:44] a new [00:13:47] candidate in Ayodhya. And [00:13:51] those who make big claims, [00:13:56] and [00:13:58] those Chief Ministers who make big claims, [00:14:01] if they are so confident, [00:14:04] then they should contest from Ayodhya [00:14:07] themselves and show it. [00:14:09] And the public will expose [00:14:13] those who make false promises of separating [00:14:17] milk from water this time. [00:14:19] And they tell me that the Chief Minister should contest [00:14:23] from Ayodhya and show it. [00:14:26] I offer you, [00:14:30] come, you also file your nomination [00:14:33] in Ayodhya, and I will also [00:14:36] from Ayodhya. Let's try our luck once. [00:14:39] Let's decide. You also come and I also [00:14:43] come. It was only a matter of Yogi's response [00:14:47] coming, Akhilesh's reaction also came. [00:14:51] In Ayodhya, a young PDA guard [00:14:54] is enough to defeat the thieves who take offerings, donations. [00:14:58] Those who give clean chits to thieves are accomplices. Has milk been separated [00:15:01] from water? No. This time the public will take down all the arrogance. [00:15:05] Have you forgotten the Lok Sabha? Akhilesh Yadav himself [00:15:09] had started this political battle in the name of Ayodhya. [00:15:13] He had gone to Ayodhya on October 8. Two months before [00:15:16] the assembly elections, he had attended Bhagwat Katha at the house of Pawan Pandey, [00:15:20] who had already been made the Samajwadi Party candidate, and from there he had challenged [00:15:24] Yogi. Yogi had responded three days later [00:15:27] from the land of Balrampur, but he had already [00:15:31] become aggressive. [00:15:33] If Shri Akhilesh Yadav ji has the courage, [00:15:35] though decisions are made by them [00:15:38] themselves. If he has the courage, then he should come [00:15:42] from Ayodhya, and our Chief Minister [00:15:45] will also come from Ayodhya. And if he [00:15:48] wants to fight, he should definitely fight and realize [00:15:52] how popular he is and [00:15:55] how popular Yogi ji is. Yogi ji will go to his house and win. [00:15:58] He will leave Ayodhya wherever he [00:16:02] tells him. The dream that Akhilesh ji has harbored [00:16:04] of forming a government will remain just [00:16:08] a dream for him. But when Yogi entered [00:16:12] this battlefield of verbal war, I was in the [00:16:26] US for 13 years and when I was in the US, [00:16:30] people in the US eat more packaged food than in India, so [00:16:34] I felt that I have to do something about it. Why don't I? [00:16:37] The US and I raise awareness about this thing in [00:16:41] India. In India, people are educated [00:16:44] but not health literate. Four baby MNCs of the world [00:16:47] have sent legal notices against you. So I have one line for all these [00:16:51] brands. If you send me a legal notice I will [00:16:54] get you publicly [00:20:25] Gen Z today is the death of real [00:20:28] intelligence. Since AI is something people [00:20:31] use every single day, they stop using their own brains. [00:20:35] I mean, this is a double-edged sword, right? How many of you [00:20:38] are ready to share your data? Even in my [00:20:42] company, I keep telling people that get better at these two things: a, you [00:20:46] should have as much context that people would not want you to leave the room. [00:20:50] And second, judgment. I think what Ishan also said, right, that today [00:20:53] real intelligence is more important and what is extremely important is if you can be the [00:20:57] judge of what is good and what is bad. So I would just say, develop these [00:21:01] two skills: have like great judgment and have so much depth and [00:21:05] context that no one can tell you that I can do this without you. [00:21:08] As you know, the Nimaya Foundation teaches AI to thousands of women. [00:21:12] So, there is a college in Haryana where [00:21:15] we asked a girl, "What did you do after [00:21:19] this course?" So she said that, "I made a 'Dadi Dada Bot'," [00:21:23] I asked, "What is that?" So she said that [00:21:26] I noticed that in my village or community, there are very few grandparents. [00:21:30] So I trained ChatGPT or whatever platform she used [00:21:34] so that it talks to her youth like a grandmother/grandfather, [00:21:38] tells them stories." So from there I got a thought [00:21:41] that for people who don't have degrees, for people who don't have formal training, [00:21:45] AI is like a paintbrush, and prompting [00:21:49] is like the skill, and the canvas is empty. So with human judgment, [00:21:53] human creativity, but this power that now through AI [00:21:56] you can create what you could only think of before, [00:22:00] that is the [00:22:03] power. [00:26:41] Jabalpur bench of the Madhya Pradesh High Court has quashed the law made in 2019 [00:26:45] under which OBC reservation was increased from 14% to 27%. [00:26:49] The court has declared the 2019 law, which provided 27% [00:26:52] reservation to OBCs in state jobs and admissions, unconstitutional [00:26:56] and has completely quashed it. The court has clearly stated [00:27:00] that reservation for Other Backward Classes in the state [00:27:03] will remain 14%. Along with this, [00:27:06] strict orders have also been issued to fill the recruitments stalled on the 13% disputed [00:27:10] quota after September 29, 2022, [00:27:13] within 3 months from the unreserved category. Now you [00:27:17] should understand what the court's order means [00:27:21] and what this whole matter is about. Let's understand it in simple language. [00:27:25] Suppose there are 100 posts vacant in a government department. Before [00:27:28] 2019, OBCs, i.e., Other Backward Classes, [00:27:31] had 14% reservation in government jobs, [00:27:35] meaning out of 100 seats, 14 seats would go to OBCs. [00:27:38] But in 2019, the Kamal Nath government increased OBC [00:27:42] reservation to 27%, meaning out of 100 [00:27:45] seats, 27 seats started going to OBCs thereafter, [00:27:49] while the SC quota of 16% remained the [00:27:52] same, and the ST quota of 20% also remained the same. If we [00:27:56] add this up, before 2019, the social quota [00:27:59] was within the 50% limit prescribed in the Constitution. But after [00:28:03] increasing the OBC reservation limit to 27%, the total reservation became 63%. [00:28:07] After adding the EWS quota to this, the total effective limit [00:28:11] of reservation reached 73%. [00:28:14] This was because after adding SC, ST, and OBC reservations, [00:28:17] the total reservation was going far above the 50% limit. [00:28:21] On this basis, many students and candidates knocked on the doors of the court. [00:28:25] The Madhya Pradesh High Court's leading judgment, which is [00:28:28] running into 159 pages, this judgment in itself [00:28:32] will set a legal precedent that no, you cannot [00:28:36] breach 50%. So, [00:28:39] in this, the students of the general category were waiting [00:28:42] because they were facing a problem, they were getting overage, [00:28:46] even after the result came, they were not being given appointments [00:28:50] by MPPSC. So for the last seven years, not a single person [00:28:53] in Madhya Pradesh had been given an appointment. Now, [00:28:57] after this decision, the High Court has said that they have written a fixed [00:29:01] date, by this date you declare their results [00:29:05] and appoint them. The basis for this was [00:29:08] the Indira Sawhney rule of 1992, in which a nine-judge bench [00:29:11] of the Supreme Court had decided that social reservation cannot [00:29:15] exceed 50%, unless there is an extremely extraordinary [00:29:19] or remote difficult circumstance. In the hearing of this case, [00:29:23] the court said, "Extraordinary circumstances were [00:29:26] not proven in the matter. The matter is not about giving reservation, [00:29:29] but about the extension of reservation. [00:29:33] any solid extraordinary data to prove that [00:29:36] the 50% [00:29:37] limit..." [00:29:46] Hearing in the Supreme Court on restrictions in Delhi regarding CJB's protest, [00:29:50] Supreme Court's comment: People have the right to peaceful protest, [00:29:53] but the method should be within the ambit of the Police Act. Notice issued to the Ministry [00:29:57] of Home Affairs, Delhi Police, DMRC chief. [00:30:00] CJB leaders Saurav Das Ranka [00:30:06] and Abhijeet Deep released from Magistrate Court on condition of not disturbing peace for one year. [00:30:10] Will leave to attend grandmother's funeral. [00:30:14] Prime Minister Modi arrived in Chennai, [00:30:17] inaugurated and laid [00:30:24] the foundation stone of projects worth over 13,000 crore rupees. [00:30:27] Traveled in Chennai Metro. CM [00:30:31] Vijay was also with him.
