THE VICE-CHAIRMAN (SHRI AKBAR ALIKHAN): Thank you. SHRI BRAHMANAND PANDA: Some friend drew the attention of the House to the history of the past. But for me the future is history and not the past. It is the future history that counts. My friends quote so many things from the history. But I look to the future as history. With our statesmanship and with our wisdom we can bring back glory to this ancient. India is a great country. I never say that we are not a great country. I am proud of it.

In their outlook I see nothing but chronic complacency. (Interruption).That is what I am seeing. If you see something else you can tell later. Sir, there are moments in the history of a nation, very rare moments which cannot come back. In my view, Sir, such a moment arose in the month of March, on the 25th of March, when the freedom fighter the leaders of the popular forces, declared their independence.
