00:00To be responsible is to know that your first responsibility is towards your welfare and
00:07not responsible to provide yourself with ample consumption.
00:12But you are surely responsible to do your own welfare.
00:16We need production of the right stuff in the right quantity.
00:20It makes no sense to say that that particular country consumes so much of coal.
00:25What do you use the coal for?
00:28That's the Vedantic question.
00:30And has that kind of usage benefited you?
00:32If not, then why do you keep quoting coal consumption, cement consumption, fuel consumption,
00:38electricity consumption as important indicators of growth?
00:43Has any growth really happened?
00:45We do not want to touch Vedanta with a barge pole, right?
00:48Do not give Vedanta that is the respect it deserves.
00:51And all you will have is this.
00:53You keep passing resolutions year after year and the world keeps hurtling towards the final
00:59disaster.
