"Time has come to redirect efforts into preparing women that are preparing to be mothers to feed better and prepare for healthier babies."
"We must focus on women before they become parents. In our plans, we must prepare early so that by the time she is pregnant and finally giving birth, she should be healthy. Then we will move on to when she is pregnant and ensure that she eats a balanced diet"
"We have to stand together to hold accountable and punish child abusers. We have to save the lives of these children because their lives are life of the family and the country in general in the future. The family and the community should be at the centre of combating the vice because the crime takes place in the community."
"We can approach this from different angles but since there is already political will, we can go ahead and provide our communities with information on proper nutrition and emphasise to our communities that fully understand the long term advantages of giving both the mother and child proper nutrition,"
Young though he was, his radiant energy produced such an impression of absolute reliability that Hedgewar made him the first sarkaryavah, or general secretary, of the RSS.

Largely because of the influence of communists in London, Huddar's conversion into an enthusiastic supporter of the fight against fascism was quick and smooth. The ease with which he crossed from one worldview to another betrays the fact that he had not properly understood the world he had grown in.
Huddar would have been 101 now had he been alive. But then centenaries are not celebrated only to register how old so and so would have been and when. They are usually celebrated to explore how much poorer our lives are without them. Maharashtrian public life is poorer without him. It is poorer for not having made the effort to recall an extraordinary life.
I regret I was not there to listen to Balaji Huddar's speech [...] No matter how many times you listen to him, his speeches are so delightful that you feel like listening to them again and again.
