  1. 58:20 Bharat (or some cognate thereof) is just what India is called in most languages in India (though some use a cognate of India/Hindustan, e.g. Kashmiri). How is wanting to use an endonym a case of "distancing itself from Western powers". It's not that unusual for countries to insist on endonyms. One other example is Swaziland wanting the name eSwatini to be used. I don't see why this would have any connection to relations to the West. If, say, Greece suddenly wanted to be called Ellada would that indicate distancing from some countries? Which ones? 1:12:30 "which one never sees around president Putin" Never? Really? What about e.g. that big palace in Krasnodar Krai? Putin might not admit that it's his but it seems likely. Also, many other high-ranking people in the Russian government (e.g. Shoigu) have similar unexplained wealth e.g. in the form of very luxurious housing.
