“In a reception some 20-25 years ago, one gentleman said to me ‘You don’t look like an Indian’ to which I replied?: ‘Tell me in one sentence what does an Indian look like?’ “Even the national leadership, be it the BJP or the Congress or any other political party, if you do not know your own country, how can you be a leader?” “Many of these national leaders do not know about their own country, which is very, very foolish. It speaks to the lack of education and patriotism. It also speaks about their feeling of having a superior mentality,” he added.

“They don’t even know that India is populated by at least three major races of the world. Recently someone from Madhya Pradesh said the Dravidians (South Indian) people are very black, they don’t realise that Northern India is populated by Aryans and in the North East it is the Mongoloid people. Besides, there are many aboriginal tribes in our country.” “That is why in the northeast, this regionalism is very high. (Feelings of) Secessionism (sic) is very high because we are not accepted outside the northeast. This is how so-called Indian people treat us,” he added.
