- It's the looters, gangsters, and squatters who are eying someone's house, land, or gold and not a Hindu or Muslim. For these lowly people, it is just another day of loot. It does not matter whether a Hindu killed a Muslim or a Muslim killed a Hindu. For them, it's another field day. Unfortunately, these people were being used as bait to divide us. - Each invasion influenced the country's culture as part of the natural evolution process, but the basic fabric never changed. It instead strengthened the Vedic philosophy, the main foundation of Hinduism. - When politicians let their followers be butchered in the hands of their opponents for the sake of chair, humanity is traded like a commodity. - Two partitioned, fractured, defeated and demoralised nations inherited scores of unresolved legacies of the past and a newborn constituency of refugees on both sides. - The Radcliffe Line chiselled not only their villages and homes but also their soles and forever etched 'refugee' on their foreheads. - Ammi Ji wept inconsolably when she held two gold bracelets that she had buried in her kitchen wall before leaving Mianwali eight years ago.
