If you want to have an exchange of population, then you must change the whole basis of not only this Government but of all that we have stood for these thirty odd years and during the movement for freedom in this country." in the context of "Jawaharlal Nehru in a speech in Parliament, New Delhi, on 7th August 1950." to mean that wisdom is timeless.
