We shouldn't consider smaller countries insignificant. I abide by this principle.

Bharat for Bhutan and Bhutan for Bharat. The colour of our passports may be different but our thinking is the same. India stands committed to Bhutan's happiness and progress.

As students I am sure you have several dreams. If you are determined to move ahead nothing can stop you. Our youth are talented.

Vote bank politics has put the future of our youth in darkness.

Youngsters inspired by Maoism have taken the gun and are spilling blood on streets, but our land needs the colour of progress not the colour of blood. Maoists must not have the gun in their hands, instead they must have agriculture tools and pens so that they can serve others. Raasta kalam, hal aur pasine ka hai, khoon ka nahi.

My development parameter is very simple. It is about how the poorest of the poor can benefit from development.

By getting an opportunity to serve society, we get a chance to repay our debt.
