“The biggest danger to national movements is excluding the poor, middle class, tribals, women. A rising tide raises all boats, but you need a boat to rise with the tide, what does he who does not have a boat do? It’s not enough to rise the tide, we have to give them the boat, the basics. The infrastructure is rights-based, give them the basic minimum on the job front, education front, information front,” Rahul said.

He said distribute the power among billions and billions people can solve their problem immediately.

“Give one individual all the power you want, he cannot solve the problems of a billion people. Give a billion people the power to solve their problems, it will be done immediately.”

Praising the Indian corporates Rahul said, “There is a tendency to look at India as a country. We see India as a national structure. If you go back 100 years, you will find India is actually an energy and a force. The image of India has changed due to our corporates. Nobody says India only has elephants on roads. The spirit of this country is forward moving and brave. We are optimists.”
