If due to environment businesses flop then we don't look at religion involved in it right? We worry about environment; similarly we have to look at the rural economy. So country's problem is not Modi but a "stagnated perverted mindset". They want to take every issue to that one [communalised] corner.

There was a time when some people said that if the Ram temple was built it would lead to unrest. Such people failed to understand the purity of India's social sentiment. The construction of this temple of Ram Lalla is also a symbol of peace, patience, harmony, and coordination in Indian society.

Those who say religion has nothing to do with politics do not know what religion is.

Philosophy? I am a Christian and a Democrat. That's all.

Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable supports.

I am persuaded, you will permit me to observe, that the path of true piety is so plain as to require but little political direction.
