Possible talking points for D Raja:

 Defining Anti-Nationalism: D Raja could start by providing a clear definition of


what constitutes anti-nationalism in the context of the AIPPM. This could
involve discussing issues like:

o Violation of national sovereignty and territorial integrity: Actions that


undermine the independence and territorial integrity of a nation could
be considered anti-national. This could include acts of
aggression, interference in internal affairs, or support for separatist
movements.
o Promoting hatred and violence against citizens: Inciting or supporting
violence against one's own citizens, based on factors like
religion, ethnicity, or political beliefs, could be seen as anti-national.
o Undermining national security and interests: Actions that compromise
national security or harm the country's economic or strategic interests
could be considered anti-national.
 AIPPM's role in scrutinizing anti-nationalism: D Raja could discuss the role of
the All India Progressive People's Movement (AIPPM) in identifying and
criticizing nations that promote anti-nationalism. This could involve
highlighting the AIPPM's:

o Research and advocacy: The AIPPM could be presented as an


organization that conducts research on anti-national activities and
raises awareness about these issues through advocacy campaigns.
o Engagement with international community: D Raja could mention the
AIPPM's efforts to engage with the international community and build
pressure on nations promoting anti-nationalism.
o Promoting alternative narratives: The AIPPM could be positioned as an
organization that challenges dominant narratives and promotes
alternative perspectives on issues of nationalism and international
relations.
 Specific examples of anti-nationalism: To make the discussion more concrete,
D Raja could provide specific examples of countries or actors that he believes
are promoting anti-nationalism. This could involve discussing:

o State-sponsored terrorism: Countries that support or harbor terrorist


groups could be cited as examples of anti-nationalism.
o Foreign interference in domestic politics: Countries that interfere in the
internal affairs of other nations could be mentioned.
o Hate speech and discrimination: Countries with a history of
discrimination against their own citizens based on religion, ethnicity, or
other factors could be included as examples.
Additional considerations:

 Audience: Depending on the audience for the session, D Raja may need to
tailor his language and examples accordingly. If the audience is unfamiliar
with the AIPPM or the concept of anti-nationalism, he may need to provide
more background information.
 Controversial topics: It is important to be aware that the topic of anti-
nationalism can be controversial. D Raja may need to be careful to avoid
making inflammatory statements or generalizations.
 Focus on solutions: While it is important to identify and criticize anti-
nationalism, D Raja may also want to discuss potential solutions to this
problem. This could involve promoting international
cooperation, dialogue, and respect for human rights.

 Redefining Diplomacy: Thakur could emphasize the need for a new approach
to diplomacy in the face of rising anti-nationalism. This could involve:

o Assertive diplomacy: Advocating for a more assertive approach to


defending India's national interests on the world stage.
o Countering anti-India narratives: Highlighting the efforts of AIPPM to
counter negative narratives about India propagated by other nations.
o Promoting cultural diplomacy: Emphasizing the importance of cultural
exchange and understanding in building bridges between nations.
 AIPPM's role in combating anti-nationalism: Thakur could focus on AIPPM's
proactive measures against anti-national activities, such as:

o Exposing state-sponsored terrorism: Bringing to light instances of


foreign nations supporting or harboring terrorist groups that threaten
India's security.
o Advocating for accountability: Pushing for international condemnation
and punitive measures against nations that engage in anti-national
activities against India.
o Strengthening internal security: Highlighting AIPPM's efforts to
strengthen India's internal security apparatus to counter internal anti-
national elements.
 Specific examples of anti-nationalism: Similar to D Raja, Thakur could provide
concrete examples, but likely from a different perspective:
o Cross-border infiltration and terrorism: Highlighting instances of
infiltration attempts and terrorist attacks originating from specific
countries.
o Economic coercion and unfair trade practices: Exposing countries that
engage in economic warfare against India to undermine its
development.
o Misinformation and propaganda campaigns: Addressing countries that
spread disinformation and negative propaganda about India on the
international stage.

Additional considerations:

 National Security Focus: Given Thakur's affiliation with the ruling party, his
emphasis might be more on national security concerns and a strong response
to perceived threats.
 Bilateral Relations and Alliances: Thakur could discuss AIPPM's role in
strengthening India's bilateral relations with key allies and building strategic
partnerships to counter anti-national forces.
 Countering Pakistan and China: These two countries might be mentioned
more prominently as potential sources of anti-national activities against
India, depending on the specific context of the session.

Remember, these are just some possibilities, and the actual content of the session
will depend on various factors, including Thakur's specific views and the format of
the event.
