New Delhi, Mar 15 (UNI) Union Minister for Road Transport and Highways, Nitin Gadkari on Wednesday said difference of opinion is not the problem, but lack of opinion is the real challenge for the democracy.
“The honest person with any ideology we always respect him but the people's philosophy is neither we are rightest nor leftist but we are known for opportunism that is the big problem for democracy,” said Gadkari.
