Q: Assuming that Congress disintegrates, do you foresee a contest for political powerbetween a form of Hindu fascism and communism?

A: A Hindu of my conception is not a fascist, but a real democrat in the true sense of the word. He is also a communist in a way. If all the Hindus who believe in the fundamentals of Hindutva unite, then the question of a contest for a political power does not arise.
