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.

The honest truth is that if this government were to propose the massacre of the first-born, it would still have no difficulty in getting it through the Commons.

Demonetisation was a big flop, and its outcome was negative. The government has done nothing to get back black money.

If I'm president, there are going to be government vans that drive around and pick up people who shouldn't be wearing certain clothing. Talk about lack of civil rights - I'm sorry, I'm pulling you right off the street, and we're giving you clothes that you're going to be O.K. in.

Twenty-first century war adds new risks: more and more often there are no front lines, no central command, no rules of engagement - only a chaotic collision of politics, power, faith and bloodlust. Victims are as likely to be civilians as soldiers.
