I do not want that our loyalty as Indians should be in the slightest way affected by any competitive loyalty, whether that loyalty arises out of our religion, our
culture or out of our language. I want all people to be Indians first, Indian last and nothing else but Indians. And, religion must mainly be a matter of principles only. It cannot be a matter of rules.
The moment it degenerates into rules, it ceases to be a religion, as it kills responsibility.
