• We have to lower cost of doing business, raise ease of doing business. We have to create opportunities for investment.
• I would not like to live in the prime ministe's house, may make it an educational institution. Badshah key tarah nahin rahenge (Will not live like a king).
• I am little disappointed by the way Indian media has portrayed me like a Bollywood villain.
• I really want to fix the India-Pakistan ties through dialogue.
• The main issue between us is Kashmir but blame game can't continue forever.
• If India moves one step forward, we will move two.
• 400 petitions on rigging were filed after previous polls. I had vouched for the issue to be addressed for clean polls this time. We would assist and help investigate claims of rigging.
