During Karan Thapar's Wire Dialogues interview, Guha had called the comparison of today's times with the Emergency "phony", because otherwise "we wouldn't be having this conversation in Delhi".

The liberal elite doesn't get it: they're not the threat to the fascists!
Chandrashekhar Azad of the Bhim Army was a threat, and he's been locked up for months now.
The Bhima Koregaon activists were a threat and they're still in jail.
Bajpai's show which had a huge reach because it was in Hindi became a threat. Three journalists have lost their jobs over it.
Kejriwal was a threat. That's why a third of all of his MLAs have made trips to jail and half of his Cabinet has been raised by several agencies.
The fascists are slowly and steadily destroying any credible opposition that comes up, whether it's in the media or in politics. The 'civilised' journalists prostrating before Amit Shah for interviews are not a threat. Nor is Ram Guha, no.
