".. we can't control what people think, but we focus on what we believe in."
"We are in the struggle, and we aim to finish it, even during the campaign period if necessary. Our candidates will be more like commanders leading a struggle, not just participating in elections."
"We fought hard for it. People may think we were just lucky, but we truly fought to get here."
"We believe that this frustration can be channeled into action to earn the freedom we have long yearned for."
"We cannot allow our country to be run through arbitrary decrees that turn into laws and policies. It’s time for every Ugandan to take responsibility, especially the young generation. They must ensure that this struggle ends with them so that no future generation has to face the challenges we have endured."
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.
- Gopal Mukund Huddar
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.
By the time he came out of Franco's prison, Huddar had relinquished many of his old ideas. He displayed a worldview completely different from that of the RSS, even though he continued to remain deferential to Hedgewar and maintained a personal relationship with him.
