"“we are not adequately represented in government and that is why we keep pushing and advocating for more inclusion of women in governance. “I believe with this push, more women in the next dispensation would occupy more public offices.”"
"I want to thank you mah and all your executives for putting up this not only for civil women, but for all Nigerian women.."
"And I know, a lot has being said already, so many people have said everything that we needed to hear and what we need to do as women because what I'm taking back home from here is that all the women, all of us must come together, no matter where you are from, no matter your party, no matter what, all of us must come together. If we don't come together, nothing will change. And if we can do it together a lot of things will fall in line. And if women are in position of authority, we will make laws that will suit us and a lot of things will fall in places for all of us to enjoy.."
"Just like Mrs Okoracha has said we have no other country apart from Nigeria, we are from here, and this is where we will stay and to the end of our lives, till the day God calls us home. So all we need to do is to do is to come together, that is why we have always being appreciating sisterhood platform. I love that sisterhood platform so much. It helps bring all the women of Nigeria together and that is exactly what our mother if doing today. So please lets come together. We have a lot, and lot, and lot to pick from what people have said; and we need to even go back to the drawing board to sit dowm=n and make sure all this things come to be. We shouldn't just do the talk and without doing the talk. We shouldn't leave what we have heard today, what we have being told; a lot of people have spoken and just leave it at that door and walk out. Please let's put it into action. Let's implement. let's do it together and we will all succeed. Thank you very much and God bless."

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.
