He also quoted former PM, "Defense of the country, progress of the country, unity of the country is our national duty. We may follow different religions, live in different states, and speak different languages, but that should not create a wall between us...all people should get equal opportunities for progress. We do not want some people in our country should be very rich and most of the people are poor." (PTI)
