- We believe in peace and peaceful development, not only for ourselves but for people all over the world.
- India will have to hang down her head in shame if even one person is left who is said in any way to be untouchable.

- We must fight for peace bravely as we fought in war.
- We can win respect in the world only if we are strong internally and can banish poverty and unemployment from our country.
- Our country has often stood like a solid rock in the face of common danger, and there is a deep underlying unity which runs like a golden thread through all our seeming diversity.
