called us for. So therefore, my earnest appeal to you, Sir, is to somehow work with the<br />

State Governments, with the investigating agencies, with us to rebuild faith in the institutions<br />

that we have setup for the purpose that they have been setup for. Secondly, sir and this<br />

is the last point that I will make, the fact <strong>of</strong> the matter is Sir, those <strong>of</strong> us who are in this<br />

meeting, those <strong>of</strong> us who represent organizations here, if we sincerely believe, what we<br />

say here, if we sincerely believe in the commitments that we make here, if we believe that<br />

communal violence has no place in this country, if we believe that caste based politics<br />

has no place in this country, if we believe the Justice have to be served, then I believe<br />

75% <strong>of</strong> our problem is gone. The problem with us is Sir, that we come here, we make<br />

very nice sounding speeches, we issue press notes after this when we go out to say this<br />

we said all this, but when it actually comes to implementing what we have saying, then it<br />

depends on the circumstances. If the communal violence or the caste based politics is<br />

going to be advantagous for me in an election, then I will be quite happy to turn a blind<br />

eye, nudge it along, wink along, give the process a little bit <strong>of</strong> boost and reap the<br />

benefits from it. And I believe that, Sir, is the biggest danger that we face. Therefore if<br />

we have come to this meeting, we obviously want to believe that National <strong>Integration</strong> is<br />

important to this country and it has to be protected. Therefore, it can’t just be confined<br />

to speeches. It has to be in our deeds as well because words are easy as the they say<br />

words achieved. It is easiest thing to come here and say we don’t believe in communal<br />

violence. It is extremely difficult to live up to that commitment. If those <strong>of</strong> us who are<br />

here live up to what we are saying in this hall, I am sure sir that more than 75% <strong>of</strong> our<br />

problems will no longer exist.<br />

Thank you.<br />

<strong>Home</strong> Minister: Mr. Subba Rao to make his statement.<br />

Dr. S. N. Subba Rao<br />

Thank You. In the midst <strong>of</strong> Chief Minister and others, I come as a grassroot worker. A<br />

couple <strong>of</strong> statements I make, which you may find useful, including those sitting on the<br />

dais. Somewhere I heard this saying “experience is a comb that one gets after one gets<br />

bald” vuqHko og da?kk gS tks xatk gksus ds ckn feyrk gSA cgqr ckj gedks eglwl gksrk gSA fe0<br />

ftUuk us dgk Fkk] just before his death, the greatest blunder I committed was the creation<br />

<strong>of</strong> Pakistan. But that was too late to realize. ysfdu Mr. Khushwant Singh us fy[kk Fkk “It<br />

is not Jinnah who created Pakistan. There are some <strong>of</strong> our Hindu leaders who wanted<br />

creating two nations – a Hindu nation and a Muslim nation. So, we have created Pakistan<br />

and we are suffering, and Pakistan is also suffering. So, from the experience, let us<br />

learn. That is one point I wanted to make. nwljk ,d cgqr vPNk lw= gS & Hkkjr vFkok nqfu;k<br />
