Modi is marching forward on the basis of the BJP's philosophy.

It is the daydreaming of some people who live in a make-believe world who think you can make roads, hospitals, and railways without any social impact!

From an organisation point of view, I want the BJP to be the bright national political party in all the states of India and having an impact on social life.

BJP is ready to go to any extent to protest for the rights of Ayyappa devotees. Beliefs should be respected. Man-woman equality is must, but gender equality cannot be established by giving entry to men and women together. There are several temples that deny men entry.

Democracy is an extraordinary adventure. It's difficult, full of daring and risk and danger. But it's the greatest gift we have.

Democracy is not simply a question of structures. It is a state of mind. It is an activity. And part of that activity is honesty.

For me, democracy must deliver a better life for the people.

I very much favor democracy, but when there is a contradiction between democratic and Jewish values, the Jewish and Zionist values are more important.
