In this country, in 30 per cent of all districts, innocent people have lost their lives to terrorism, Naxalism and insurgencies. Have you ever read in the newspapers that somewhere 15 people died in bomb blasts and the PM could not sleep at night? Recently, in Lucknow, in Uttar Pradesh, bombs were blasted right inside the courtrooms, and lots of people died but did the prime minister say that he could not sleep at night? Some time back there were serial blasts in the trains of Mumbai. Did the PM say that he had sleepless nights? Of course not!
In the terrorist activity of London a boy from Bangalore was implicated. When he saw the boy's mother crying on television Manmohan Singhji says he could not sleep on that day. Hello brother, in this country hundreds of people have been killed, so many mothers have become widows, so many mothers have lost their children, so many sisters have lost their brothers, so many sisters are waiting to tie rakhee to their brothers but, instead, their dead bodies are arriving back home but this country's prime minister is not losing sleep over it. Who is responsible for this? And the PM says Muslims have the first right on the assets of this country. Then what will happen to you, brother? Nothing for you? Tell me what will Miyan Musharraf say? Will he ever say that India has the right over Pakistan's assets? Will he ever say that? Manmohan Singhji, explain to me how can you say such things that mislead the country? Do you want to play vote-bank politics even in this?
And friends, look at their pseudo-secularism. Bangladeshis are living in the lanes and bylanes of this country but no one is ready to evacuate them. Taslima, who is a writer exercising freedom of expression, is being harassed by fundamentalists. The allies of Sonia Gandhi overnight shifted her out of West Bengal and even took her out of Rajasthan. Now they are plotting to send her out of the country. You can't get a worse example than this of pseudo-secularism. The Centre should have some courage. She is a woman who is fighting for the truth. By giving her protection, the government should have set an example of the glorious tradition of India. The Congress won't do that because then fundamentalists will be displeased and it will affect the vote-bank politics of the Congress. If the Centre lacks the courage to give security to her, then I have the courage. Send Taslima to Gujarat; the youth of Gujarat are keen to provide security to her!
Look closely at this 2-rupee coin. Till two years ago, when Soniaben's government was formed, the map of India was inscribed on the 2-rupee coin. Then she issued a new 2-rupee coin where the map was removed and a Christian cross inscribed on it. What are you up to Soniaben? You have erased the map of India? We are not telling you put an Om on India's coins; we are not telling you to put an image of Lord Ram! My fight is against this, I object to this.
