Transcript

00:00There is not a single person in this country, in this Sadhan, outside the Sadhan, in that Sadhan, who says that he has not lost any acquaintance.

00:09I say with conviction that I am speaking on behalf of lakhs of people who want to speak here.

00:14Now listen to me today.

00:31And first of all, apologies to all those people whose death we are not even acknowledging.

00:40Who we know will die.

00:43So this apology is not just mine.

00:46I am saying this because in the month of May, I wrote six articles.

00:50The parliament was not running.

00:52Where do you take your complaints?

00:54To whom do you say?

00:55Many friends of the BJP called me.

00:59Congratulations.

01:00I respect them too.

01:02And I say that this trust is of this Sadhan.

01:05That we should all send an apology to those people whose dead bodies were floating in the Ganga.

01:11Out of any two weapons, 50 people have never been identified.

01:17In the history of the parliament.

01:19Rajiv Satheb's age did not know from this world.

01:22Raghunath Mahapatra.

01:24Whenever we met, we hugged and said, Jai Jagannath.

01:27People are not there all of a sudden.

01:29This pain is personal.

01:31I don't want to say the figure.

01:33My figure, your figure.

01:35Find a figure in your pain.

01:37There is not a single person in this country.

01:39In this Sadhan.

01:41Outside the Sadhan.

01:42In that Sadhan.

01:43Who says that he has not lost any acquaintances.

01:46People used to call for oxygen.

01:49We could not arrange.

01:51People think that oxygen will be provided in the evening.

01:54In 100 phones.

01:56In the whole day.

01:57We used to sit and watch in the evening.

01:59Success rate 2.

02:00Success rate 3.

02:02Which figure will someone tell me, sir?

02:05I don't want to talk about any figure.

02:08We have to see that those who have gone.

02:11They have left a living document of our failure.

02:14I was not talking about you, sir.

02:16You will say that nothing happened in 70 years.

02:19I don't want to go into that.

02:21This is a collective failure.

02:23From 1947 to now.

02:25Of all the governments.

02:27What have we made?

02:29I did not know.

02:31What is the relationship between a hospital and oxygen, sir?

02:33I say honestly.

02:35I do not come from a medical background.

02:37People used to see from the morning.

02:39Oxygen.

02:40Oxygen.

02:41Remedies.

02:42I even checked the pronunciation of medicines in the beginning.

02:45How will I pronounce?

02:47This condition.

02:48And then we are talking about numbers.

02:50Then we are talking about this.

02:52Thank you, sir.

02:54Sir, I am leaving here.

02:57There is a lot of advertising.

03:00Free vaccine.

03:01Free ration.

03:02Free treatment.

03:03Sir, one minute.

03:05I have no one.

03:07No, please.

03:08Please.

03:09Please.

03:10I don't want my time.

03:12I am not speaking on behalf of any party today.

03:15I say with conviction.

03:17I am speaking on behalf of millions of people.

03:19Who want to speak here.

03:21Now listen to me today.

03:23I am not complaining to you.

03:25This is a welfare state, right?

03:27If someone is buying a bag of soap in a poor village,

03:31then he gets a loan of equal to Adani Ambani.

03:34You are calling it free.

03:36Free vaccine.

03:37Free treatment.

03:38Free ration.

03:39No, sir.

03:40Nothing is free.

03:41It has a stake.

03:43This welfare state has a commitment.

03:45Don't denigrate it.

03:47How did this country spend that one and a half month?

03:50Some people from our state came out of trouble.

03:53I will not name them.

03:55How has the whole country spent that time?

03:58It seems like a nightmare, sir.

04:00It seems scary.

04:01And what was said in between,

04:03that the system failed to spread the government.

04:06Sir, what is this system?

04:09I have heard since childhood that there is a person behind the system.

04:12There is a structure behind the system.

04:15If that system has failed,

04:17whether in Delhi or in the streets of a village,

04:20then the governments there have failed.

04:22Don't give it the name of a system.

04:24Because this is what they make the system.

04:26I am hungry.

04:28I want to awaken myself and you too.

04:31Because if there are floating corpses in the Ganges,

04:34Sir, we need dignity in life.

04:36We need more dignity than that in death.

04:38We have witnessed undignified death.

04:41And if we do not correct this,

04:44the coming generations will not forgive.
