• Vigyan aur Rajniti ko kya khoob joda hai (He has deftly linked science and politics).
A member of the audience at Sinha's speech

•Jab shree Ram ka naara jal di hi sach hoga. Jab tak Ram Rajya nahin aata, Shatrughan se hi kaam chalana padega (Ram will surely come day but till his arrival you will have to make do with me).
Shatrughan Sinha

•Once I asked Advani who is this Ram? Is he a new member of your party? Where can I get him? I would like to ask him if he has asked you to take a Rath in the name of Hindutva, if he has to demolish the mosque.
Jyoti Basu

•Karunanidhi's only achievement is putting me behind bars on false charges. If he's not able to rule the state, he must quit.
J Jayalalitha

• Rajmata Scindia was born in Nepal. Her parents hailed from Nepal, but she became the daughter-in-law of the Gwalior royal family. I consider her to be an Indian and so do others. We should use the same yardstick for Sonia Gandhi.
Sharad Pawar

• The non-Congress parties are playing jokes on the electorate. The country has seen riots. Industries have closed down. Women are being tortured. Democracy cannot be run like this.
Sonia Gandhi

• Those who promote only one religion would only encourage differences for their own selfish ends. This ideology was behind the Mahatma's assassination. Identify these forces and reject them.
Sonia Gandhi
