• 7 May 2013 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, first of all, I need to congratulate my friend, Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale, for being the first Senator to introduce a Motion in this House. All of us should follow the queue so that the public can know that we are here for a purpose. Having said that, I think we should not spend a lot of time talking about the past. We have been given the authority by the people of this country to do what we think has not been done before. We should not then appear as if we have discovered that some people ... view

• 7 May 2013 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I think I know better. The honorable friend thinks that I do not know. I came to Parliament before him and I know what I am talking about. view

• 23 Apr 2013 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, first, I would like to thank you very much for giving me the opportunity to address this House and make my comments on the President’s Address, which I think was very important for this nation. For anyone to doubt what he was saying or whether he will implement it or not, I think we will not be doing service to this nation. This is because the President has said what he had and wanted to do in this country. It is now for the Senators also to say their plan of action. What are we going to ... view
• 23 Apr 2013 in Senate: I think I have been here longer than you and so you should wait for me to finish, then something else will happen. But you are a great man. Can you proceed! view
