In bachchon ke sawaal poochhne aur vote dene ka time aa gaya hai (This time, you can't get away with abusing someone else. It's time these young people start asking questions and are ready to vote)."

Is there even one police officer in this country who can stand up and say, 'I won't follow this order because it is wrong'?)."
