didn’t go wrong anywhere. We did the right things. But as I can always tell
people: when you bring a change, you fight all those who live off the old
order. They don’t go away; they gang up. And don’t think it’s a straight race
to remove an establishment. It’s a long-distance journey anywhere in the world.
Go and check anywhere, whether you are looking at what happened in India, with
Mandela in South Africa, or America. No change has happened overnight, it takes
time. I urge all of you, if you really want change, we have just begun. We just
have to continue from where we are.
those things we will correct. I assure you we are correcting them without
naming them.
server would not work because it was the establishment that made it so it
wouldn’t work. It’s ours to continue to say that it would work. But there was
no glitch. Amazon came and said there was no glitch. Amazon glitch is noticed
globally – it’s recorded globally. And at that period, we brought down an
Amazon person who said this is the number of glitches we have had since inception.
And there was none that it reported that day. We know it didn’t occur. It was
the glitch of the establishment criminality that was in the system. And we must
one day make it work.”
