It is very shameful for you to resort to acts of lawlessness... By these acts you have proved traitors to your country and placed serious obstacles on the path of Swaraj. I want an assurance from you that you will give adequate protection to the Muslims even at the cost of sacrificing your all instead of thinking and acting in terms of retaliation for the happenings in East Bengal.”

I want an assurance from you that you will give adequate protection to the Muslims even at the cost of sacrificing your all instead of thinking and acting in terms of retaliation for the happenings in East Bengal.”" in the context of "Nehru, Speech at Poonpoon on 4th November 1946, Selected Works of Jawaharlal Nehru, Vol 15 series 1, page 59 in Print ‘I am greatly relieved that 400+ Hindu peasants gunned down, balance slightly righted’: How Nehru justified killing of Hindus protesting against Noakhali massacre" to mean that wisdom is timeless.
