"Do you expect teachers to draw on the blackboard, how to wear a condom? This would be surely embarrassing to our teachers. The curriculum must be changed to suit Indian conditions."

"This is a machine and anything can go wrong with it."

"If the government is convinced that he is innocent and that he has been a victim of mistaken identity, it should move ahead to save him."

"Historical responsibility is a fact. It cannot be wished away. We are just 2.4 percent of the worlds historical emissions."

"We have to reduce our carbon emissions. But I have not created the carbon emission problems, which have been done by others. But I am not into any blame game. The issue is that I have a right to grow. India and developing countries have the right to grow. These are the emerging economies. To that end, we need to grow. Our net emission may increase."

"No country allows such slogans anywhere in the world. Show me a country and give me some reasons to allow such things. This is never allowed and should not be allowed."
