Frighten the hell out of these politicians'

According to the Britishers, Bhagat Singh was also a terrorist but he had ethics. There are no ethics today. The terrorist of today must have ethics. They can contribute a lot, they can become a positive force, they should frighten the hell out of corrupt politicians, not innocent people.

They will achieve nothing by putting bombs, no government will move -- 50 people died when they put a bomb at Gateway of India but what happened to the government? Nothing. They will go give a speech, put some flowers, incense sticks but you cannot change them. But yes, if you would have put that bomb -- bloody in the Parliament -- then things would change.

After they were attacked in Parliament look at what security arrangements they made. I saw on television that even a truck laden with bombs cannot force itself, a big blockade from underneath comes up and can stop a speeding truck.

Look at the Jayaprakash (Narayan) movement, he was a Gandhian, he got so angry that he called for a total revolution which is

required. Politicians are to be blamed today, they are the number one enemy of the country. I would really request people that if they support a party but see that they are fielding a person who has a criminal record, they should not bring the party to power.

Suppose if I am a Congress sympathiser and in my area the Congress person I am supposed to vote for is not a good man I will not vote for him. Common people have nothing else, the only power they have is that vote.
