In a democracy, dynasty politics is wrong. We need to free the state and nation from it.
We do not need ACTS but Action.
We do not need committees but we need commitment. The nation is already reeling under the burden of several committees formed in the last decade.
Good governance needs self-discipline. Only discipline within can ensure discipline without.
Atal Bihari Vajpayee ji gave the mantra- Insaniyat, Jamhooriyat, Kashmiriyat. He based Jammu and Kashmir's development on this, and we need to take it ahead.
Economic development cannot take a nation forward on its own. We need a society and economy which complement each other. We need to take care of the poor, deprived and left behind sections of society.
In this era, I-ways are as essential as Highways...We need both Information Ways and Highways.
Development has to result in jobs. What we need is not just more production, but mass production and production by masses.
Keeping technology at the forefront, we need to further speed up our defence programme & keep pace with the world.
We need to make India capable, prosperous.
This century is going to be linked with the virtual world. Maybe in the days to come we will have virtual malls and digital manufacturing. Change is coming fast and we need our urban areas to keep pace with these changes.
I have seen people wanting to devote their time & energy to nation building. All they need is an opportunity. 'MyGov' is that opportunity!
We should pass the U.N.'s Comprehensive Convention on International Terrorism. At least it will clearly establish whom you view as a terrorist and whom you don't. We need to delink terrorism from religion - to isolate terrorists who use this interchange of arguments between terrorism and religion.
I haven't done anything wrong that I need to make up for. I am what I am in front of the world.
