We live in an inter-dependent world. An isolated India is not in our interest.

Through Saansad Adarsh Gram Yojana, we want to give impetus to Demand driven development model instead of Supply driven development model. Let the villages say what has to be done, and what not.

India has always wanted friendly ties with its neighbours, there can be no debate around it. We want to live in harmony and peace.

It used to hurt me in the past years to hear people say they want to leave India. But with the experience of past few months, I can say that we have removed that gloom from the minds of the people.

Dignity of labour has to be our national duty; it has to be a part of our nature.

Whatever position we may rise to, be it of MP, CM or PM, nothing can teach us the way villages can.

Ladakh's Prakash, Paryavaran, Paryatan are a strength for both J&K and India.
