00:00Two visions of the self in India in conflict. One is our idea, the idea of the constitution

00:11and the other is the idea of the RSS. Mohan Bhagwat has the audacity to inform the nation

00:19every two or three days what he thinks about the independent movement, what he thinks about

00:25the constitution. In fact what he has said yesterday is treason because it is stating

00:34that the constitution is invalid, it is stating that everything, the fight against the British

00:39was invalid and he has the audacity to say this publicly. In any other country he would

00:44be arrested and tried. That is the fact. To say that India did not get independence in

00:511947 is an insult to every single Indian person. And it is about time we stop listening

00:57to this nonsense that these people think they can just keep parroting out and shouting and

01:02screaming. Everybody in this room is under severe assault defending the ideas of the

01:10Congress party. Sometimes we forget it. But these people in this room are facing systematic

01:21attack and assault on their lives because they are in the Congress party and they are

01:26not surrendering to the BJP and the RSS. It is the duty of the election commission to

01:32provide transparency in elections. If there is a one crore increase in voters between

01:39Maharashtra Lok Sabha and Vidhan Sabha, it is the duty and the sacred responsibility

01:48of the election commission to show us exactly why that has happened and they are refusing

01:53to do it. And this is something every congressman and every opposition person has to keep in

01:58mind. There is a serious problem with our election system. And it is the duty of the

02:04election commission to come clean and to give us the data of the Maharashtra and the

02:13Haryana elections, to give us the data we are asking for, the opposition is asking for

02:18and which they are refusing to give us. So that is the situation in which we are fighting.

02:27And all the investigative agencies which are supposed to investigate crimes are being

02:31used against opposition.
