00:00 And you're fiddling. I understand this. You might not appreciate it. But my great-grandfather
00:09 spent 15 years in jail building this thing. My grandmother was shot 32 times and my father
00:18 was blown into bits. So I understand a little bit about what this country is. My blood has
00:27 been sacrificed, not by me, by my great-grandfather, by my grandmother, by my father for this country.
00:33 So I understand what it is. And you are fiddling with something very, very dangerous. And I
00:43 am advising you, stop. Because if you do not stop, you will create a problem. You have
00:55 already started creating the problem. The problem has already started in the northeast.
01:02 The problem has already started in Tamil Nadu. You're not visible. It's not visible to you
01:06 right now. Jammu Kashmir, which I will speak about, which is my third point. Now, what
01:18 you're fiddling with is extremely dangerous. And it demonstrates a complete lack of understanding
01:27 of history. Please, this evening, go back and look at all the empires that have ever
01:38 ruled India. Look at them carefully. You will find that every single one of them is a union
01:46 of states. There's not a single empire. There was a reason Ashok used to go and put his
01:53 pillars everywhere. Because it was a union of states where Ashok, the great king, respected
01:59 everybody. You are disrespecting everybody. Disrespect me, I don't care. It doesn't matter
02:06 to me. But you cannot disrespect the people of this country. Right? Now, final. I think
02:15 one of the more important parts of my speech. Actually, I want to say one other thing, which
02:23 I demand an apology from the Home Minister. And this represents again the idea of a union
02:34 of states versus the idea of a king. Now, a few days ago, some political leader, I'm
02:43 not going to name, came to me from Manipur. And he was very agitated. I spoke to him,
02:54 I said, Why are you agitated, my brother? And he says, Rahulji, I have never felt as
03:01 insulted as I have a few days ago. I said, Why? He said, Rahulji, a delegation of Manipuris,
03:12 political leaders, senior leaders went to see the Home Minister. Outside his house,
03:18 we were told to take off our shoes. And when we went inside his room, we found that the
03:25 Home Minister was wearing his chappals. What does this mean? What exactly does this mean?
03:33 Why is it that in the Home Minister's house, the Home Minister can wear chappals, but a
03:40 delegation of Manipuri politicians cannot? What does this mean? Why? Why? No, it reflects...
03:48 No, I'm not saying anything wrong.
