- Beloved Osho, in view of the upcoming general elections, the editor of Illustrated Weekly, Mr. Pritish Nandy has requested your views on a variety of issues confronting India today.
- The first question: What in your view should be india's educational policy?
- Question 2
- Since you mention socialism, I have a question. Is socialism viable, and is socialism relevant to India?
- Question 3
- What should be the role of doordarshan with regard to television. And could you please say something about the freedom of the press?
- Question 4
- What in your view, should be government's financial policy? Will you please say something about public versus private enterprise?
- Question 5
- What will be your view about corruption, because people are having a controversy about bofors gun deal in which the middle man took away lot of money. So the question was, should there be a middle man in the defense purchases? And what should be the foreign policy of India?
- Question 6
- I had eleven questions, I have already asked seven. Is it okay? Shall I continue for the last...?
- Question 7
- There is this issue of secularism, and there is a great controversy going on right now with regard to what they call "Ram General Bumi and the Babri Masjid in Ayodhya." Both communities, Hindus and Moslems, are claiming that place. How can this issue be defused?
- Question 8
- Women still feel second-rate citizens. They feel insecure and discriminated. How should women cope up with this situation? And what kind of legal system be created to protect their interests?
- Question 9
- I have only last two questions, Osho.
- In view of this coming elections, what in your view should be an ideal cabinet? And who, in your view, is the ideal prime minister? And I will just add the last question to this.
- Four years ago when Pritish Nandy had interviewed you back at the Ranch, you had said at that time that Rajiv Gandhi should go back an become a pilot, and there was a big uproar. Now four years later, do you think Rajiv Gandhi is fit enough to ride a bicycle?
