    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I think it is important that even when you look at Article 10(2) of the national values, it states: “The national values and principles of governance include patriotism and national unity.” You cannot get national unity when we are all talking in our 42 languages in matters of public offices. It states: “The national values and principles of governance include patriotism, national unity, sharing and devolution of power, the rule of law, democracy, participation of the people.” Again, how do people participate if they all talk in their own mother tongues? Again, the whole of Article 10 allows us to appreciate what was the spirit of the drafters of this Constitution. The spirit was to ensure that while respecting the diversity of the nature of our country, we still have to build the nation. You cannot build the nation when we are in such a fragmented situation."
