National Awareness
and Nation-Building

For the development of the country, a programme is essential. But before the programme, the individuals are needed who will willingly adopt that programme.

I said that, at present, it is necessary to foster this awareness among Hindus and Muslims: that differences always exist in every society. We must learn to live together despite disagreements and grievances.

The solution to our country’s problems is the same as what someone once said: Peaceful resolution of conflicts.

For this purpose, we must launch an intensive awareness programme. (Sevagram ka Safar, March 1993)
