Quotes by Kuldip Nayar (?)

“Over the years I have felt that both the IAS and IPS have developed a kind of feudal class consciousness that does not go well with the service to the people that India needs. Their initial idealism begins to diminish within a few years of service and they gradually become part of the furniture.”
― Kuldip Nayar, Beyond The Lines: An Autobiography

“इन्दिरा गांधी इस आधिकारिक रिपोर्ट से भी प्रभावित थीं कि उनकी लाकेप्रियता अपने चरम पर थी। इसलिए उन्होंने इमरजेंसी में कुछ ढील देने का फैसला किया। संजय गांधी ने जब उनके इस फैसले के बारे में सुना, और यह भी कि वे चुनाव करवाने की सोच रही थीं, तो वे आग-बबूला हो गए। वे आनेवाले कई वर्षों तक चुनावों के खिलाफ थे। माँ-बेटे में काफी गर्मागर्मी हुई, लेकिन जब संजय ने देखा कि वे अपने फैसले पर अटल थीं तो वे कुछ ढीले पड़ने लगे। चुनाव करवाने के पीछे इन्दिरा गांधी की कुछ भी बाध्यताएँ रही हों, लेकिन यह इस बात की स्वीकृति थी कि कोई भी व्यवस्था लोगों की सहमति और प्रोत्साहन के बिना नहीं चल सकती। एक तरह से यह इमरजेंसी के दौरान लोगों के धीरज और सहनशीलता का परिणाम था। और सच्चाई यह थी कि आखिर में यही अनपढ़, पिछड़े हुए और गरीब लोग विजयी होनेवाले थे।”
― Kuldip Nayar, एक जिन्दगी काफी नहीं

“भगत सिंह मानते थे कि अगर अंग्रेजी हुकूमत की समाप्ति का मतलब केवल शासकों का बदलना होगा तो लोगों की दयनीय स्थिति जस-की-तस बनी रहेगी। भारत की घिसी-पिटी व्यवस्था को समाप्त किए बिना कोई सुधार नहीं हो सकता। यही व्यवस्था थी, जो तरक्की के रास्ते में दीवार बनकर खड़ी थी। दार्शनिकों ने इस दुनिया को अलग-अलग तरीके से देखा-समझा, लेकिन असल मुद्दा इसे बदलने का था। यह केवल क्रांति से ही हो सकता है।”
― Kuldip Nayar, Bhagat Singh Ki Phansi Ka Sach: A Historical Account of the Trial and Execution of Bhagat Singh by Nayar, Kuldip
