Professor Gadgil deserves immense credit for his honesty and transparency. It’s clear that corruption and political indifference are at the heart of this crisis. Human lives are being recklessly disregarded. This must be exposed.

[sudharajasekhar]

Be kind Rajdeep... Not nasty and forceful, and loud and disruptive ... You are dealing with grace and dignity and honesty in a human form in Dr Gadgil....

[lazylucy]

[beeranhusain]

തീര്ച്ചയായും ഇദ്ദേഹം പറഞ്ഞത് ഇനിയെങ്കിലും മനസ്സിൽ ആക്കി തിരുത്താൻ ജനം മുന്നോട്ടു വരിക

[sharonsaji]

PROFESSOR GADGIL is not afraid of government or richer people of the society. He is a genuine person. Atleast this time we should take advice from him. IMPLEMENTING the GARDGIL report may be the best solution.

[imranshamsuddin]

He is a real Indian. Patriot. In this age he can just chill in his home and places. Rather he is still fighting for the land, the people, the nation at this age.

[ganeshjun]

The entire India should take learning from this story.. instead of blame games..

[girishr]

Professor gadgil is revealing exactly the truth.. consequence faced by people in wayanad.. Innocent people have died.. Protect wayanad, protect peoples of wayanad...save lifes...

[comfortereternal]

വിദ്യാ ഭ്യാസം ഉള്ള ആരും ഇല്ലേ നമ്മുടെ പാർട്ടിയിൽ...

[kinsongeorge]

Prof. Gadgil...is a man with integrity and self-esteem..The cronies and their allies can't buy him ....a rare specimen...what a man he is...!

[sumesh]

സർ നേരത്തെയും ഇക്കാര്യങ്ങളെക്കെ പറഞ്ഞതാണ്, അന്നേരം നമ്മുടെ മണിയും അവന്റെ പാർട്ടിയും കളിയാക്കി, , ഇപ്പോൾ പോയത് പാവങ്ങൾക്ക്, , എല്ലാവർക്കും വേണ്ടി പ്രാർത്ഥിക്കാം 🌹🌹🌹

[lisujo]

This man is a genius, he provided the report years ago....about how humankind is destroying our ecosystem and naturally vulnerable parts, especially western for kerala

[clarapereira]

Thank you Sri Madhav Gadgil for exposing the facts behind the landslides in Kerala...Thank you Mr Rajdeep for bringing him to the channel....Hope this will be an eye opener to prevent further disasters..

[athi]

Why any ofd kerala media not inviting him even after so many disasters which proves he was right

[syamsuresh]

മലയാളികൾ ഒക്കെ വന്ന് ഇത്‌ കേൾക്ക്... മനസ്സിലായവർ അറിയാത്തവർക്ക് പറഞ്ഞു കൊടുക്ക്..നമ്മൾ ഉദ്ദേശിക്കുന്ന പോലെയൊന്നുമല്ല കാര്യം.. വയനാട് ഇപ്പോൾ ഉണ്ടായതിനേക്കാൾ ഭീകരമായ കാര്യങ്ങൾ ഇനിയും കേരളത്തിൽ സംഭവിക്കും.

[meghamadhus]

Well said gadgil sir .. Its really true. Your words are true .As a human as a keralite..i agree your words.

[invinsiblewarrior]

What Prof. Gadgil is saying is very very correct. All ecologically sensitive areas have been brought down and destroyed leading to weakening of these more prone geological areas.

[bijoykv]

Population out of control....houses build on river side....resorts build on every cliff....Kerala ....God save this country

[jituladhikary]

Shame on Pinarayi Vijayan, he is the chief minister who did not stop illegal digging. Communist can never be trusted. Shame on communist party in Kerala

[saatyaki]

Govt should have listened to Gadgil Sir😢. And now the common man is suffering!!
