It cannot be laid down in the Constitution itself because that is destroying democracy altogether. (Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar)

The Americans should stop insulting us, I'm not going to be an accomplice to the depopulation of the land. It's not up to the Americans to tell us how to organise our farm policy and the balance of our society. Their attitude is to treat the EC as if it had the plague and then encourage the rest of the world to join in. View quote
