Maneka Gandhi quotes
I have not done anything to merit being thrown out. I don't understand why I am being attacked and held personally responsible. I am more loyal to my mother-in-law than even to my mother.
Maneka Gandhi
Three years ago, I came to you as a bride. Today, I come as a widow who, with a small child, was thrown out of her mother-in-law's house.
Maneka Gandhi
I mean, winning an election is no big deal. It's what you do with the power afterward that matters. And, well, for me anyway, it's proving you can do something entirely on your own, entirely your own way and for a commitment that is larger than yourself.
Maneka Gandhi
If there are 500 tigers left in India, I'd be surprised. They are even skinning the tigers in Indian zoos.
Maneka Gandhi
Among a certain class this winter, there wasn't a party in Delhi that didn't have cocaine.
Maneka Gandhi
Meat can no longer be protected as a personal choice. If your meat is going to destroy my health and our environment, you ought to have to pay for it.
Maneka Gandhi
Has prostitution come to an end because of warnings against it?
Maneka Gandhi
On the positive side, at least we know now what to stock up with in case of a nuclear war. Also filmstars might consider injecting liquidized McD into their faces to halt the ageing process.
Maneka Gandhi
In India, no power plant runs beyond 58 per cent of its capacity. I believe instead of making yet another plant which is really disastrous, what you should do first is to go in for conservation - that is increase your 58 per cent to 90 per cent. Your power problem would be solved right there.
Maneka Gandhi
For many years, the country has believed these pesticides are vital to keeping away starvation, to advance the green revolution. The main concern was food production and disease control - not public health safety. Some of us believe this must change, but it... will take some time.
Maneka Gandhi
Let me clarify at the outset that this decision to permit hunting of wild boars and blue bull in the wild is not taken for the sake of farmers, but to benefit those private forest lodge operators who have clients from Middle East and other countries.
Maneka Gandhi
Can we afford to let Laloo, whose knowledge of anything except caste structures is non-existent, damage the rural economy further? The long-suffering railway ministry, which has by now lost its ability to resist any absurd decision by any of their ministers, has agreed to budget Rs 250 crore a year to buy kulhars. While all that money comes from your pocket, where will it actually go?
Maneka Gandhi
You have 2,000 girls who are killed in the womb every day. Some are born and have pillows on their faces choking them.
Maneka Gandhi
We are already into the crisis. It will accelerate in the next five years. There will come a time in the next 10 years when it will be irrelevant which party comes to power. The word democracy will be irrelevant when people rush to grab whatever available resources are left.
Maneka Gandhi
One problem is the destruction of the habitat, and the second is this constant catching of elephants for training, for tourism or logging. And this training that we are doing is the most brutal, primitive and stupid in the whole world.
Maneka Gandhi
While I respect culture, this bull-killing ritual causes extreme suffering to an innocent creature and has no place in the modern world. Tradition is not an excuse for cruelty, and many societies have ended or are working to end ‘traditional' practices-such as slavery, cannibalism, infanticide, female circumcision, foot-binding, bullfighting, and fox hunting-that cause animals or humans to suffer.
Maneka Gandhi
When I was studying in Bangalore, temperature would be around 21 degree and now it is 31 degree. The drastic increase in the level of temperature is due to industrialisation.
Maneka Gandhi
We are changing the law and I am personally working on it to bring 16-year-olds into the purview. According to the police, 50 per cent of the crimes are committed by 16-year-olds who know the Juvenile Justice Act. But now for premeditated murder, rape, if we bring them into the purview of the adult world, then it will scare them.
Maneka Gandhi
In all cases that have been investigated, the only time a state government gives permission for nilgai and wild boar shooting is when it is requested by vips, hotel and tourism people or friends of politicians.
Maneka Gandhi
It is so naturally high in fat that it leads to obesity, the cause of all modern disease. Ayurveda actually lists milk as one of the five white poisons.
Maneka Gandhi
The movement I have initiated against the entry of junk food has already resulted in the reduction of sales of KFC in Bangalore to a record low.
Maneka Gandhi
It is a win-win situation for us - no harm to janitors by way of daily exposure to chemicals, and cows will be valued more.
