SADHGURU
Founder, Isha Foundation
“Questions cannot be wrong,” he says. “Only the answer can be.” Speaking at the India Today Conclave, the spiritual guru touched on several issues and not just spiritual ones, but also some of the contentious social and political topics of the day.
Welcoming the recent notification of the Citizenship (Amendment) Act, 2019, for instance, he said it doesn’t pertain to any religion. Calling the move “too little compassion coming too late”, he said the refugees who will benefit from it have suffered for decades. “When we left people on the other side of the border post-Partition, there was hope that they will be taken care of,” he said. “There was also a promise in the political space that if there are problems, we will take [you] back. But, over 75 years, they have faced the worst of the worst. Many of them moved here 30-40 years ago, but are still refugees in this country…they don’t have any rights. This is not a controversy. This is a matter of shame.”
