When people see how I manage to work my way out of tough situations, it gives them hope in their own life.

It is because of me that today the union government has sanctioned special funds for the development of Bihar.

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.

I know some people say I can be funny. But there is always a deeper meaning to what I say. I am a socialist at heart and have the interests of the poor in mind. When people see how I manage to work my way out of tough situations, it gives them hope in their own life.

I've not given them (the poor people of Bihar) heaven, but I've given them a voice.

I do not rule out the possibility of being prime minister of India one day, but there is still time.

Everyone should play their role in tearing down the wall of hatred.
