00:00Why do you serve people? You don't rule.
00:03You've never heard it from me.
00:06I can't speak it, except for Patil.
00:08Many times people ask us,
00:10Why do you commit so many crimes?
00:12And how do you give them tickets?
00:14We have to tell them,
00:16Baba, he has committed crimes.
00:18But he chooses them.
00:30Music
00:36I find it funny,
00:38that we have never used so many
00:40Shivral languages before.
00:42I feel so good
00:44to hear so many Shivral languages.
00:46Wow, wow, wow.
00:48It's no different than us.
00:50I make a list of words,
00:52and I see my culture in it.
00:54So while using it,
00:56how many words can I use?
01:00We have to take care of it.
01:04If we don't take care of it,
01:06what ideals will we have
01:08in front of our new students?
01:10Do you have any rules on it?
01:14Of course.
01:16You've never heard it from me.
01:18I can't speak it,
01:20except for Patil.
01:22No, no, I'm not talking about you.
01:24Mr. Padanvi,
01:26if we do something wrong
01:28on the road,
01:30you punish us,
01:32break the signal,
01:34and so on.
01:36What have you done?
01:38What do we do about you?
01:40When you make a mistake,
01:42don't we feel bad about it?
01:44Don't we have a problem with it?
01:46Who have we given power to?
01:48This is on us.
01:50But power means,
01:52when we elect you,
01:54we don't have that much
01:56authority in us.
01:58We can't do it.
02:00Two and a half years ago,
02:02we might have been informed,
02:04but three months later,
02:06we don't rule,
02:08we don't govern,
02:10we are going to work as
02:12the servants of the people in this state.
02:14Our ministers,
02:16if a simple municipal servant
02:18is elected today,
02:20why don't we
02:22respect him?
02:24I know
02:26that this is corruption,
02:30but why don't you pay attention to it?
02:34Shouldn't we
02:36take action on it, Eknath Rao?
02:38So,
02:40you pay Rs. 30
02:42as income tax,
02:44Rs. 18 as GST.
02:46After we do all this,
02:48why don't you do it?
02:56I feel that
02:58corruption
03:00is not just
03:02politics,
03:04it is a problem
03:06that is affecting our entire system.
03:08And if the poor
03:10want to end this,
03:12then
03:14they will have to make a lot of collective efforts.
03:16For example,
03:18people often ask us
03:20how we give them the ticket.
03:22We have to tell them that
03:24they are guilty,
03:26but they are the ones
03:28who elect them.
03:30And we have to give them
03:32a clean, beautiful,
03:34clean ticket.
03:36So,
03:38political leaders
03:40cannot change this.
03:42The society will have to change.
03:44And not just the society,
03:46political leaders
03:48will have to change.
03:50This is what I feel.
03:52I feel that
03:54after Modi ji came,
03:56this has started
03:58in some way.
04:00It will take time,
04:02but slowly we will
04:04get rid of this problem.
