Our mass movement will shatter this communal, fascist and autocratic center.
Musharraf is a good man and wants to improve relations with India.
Why should I tell you where I am going to get funds from? If I were to do that then all the vested interests would get alerted. You must be aware that railways are full of such elements and my fight is against them.
