not afraid of anybody or any power. We are still living in Eastern Pakistan and we are not running away. We are telling our brothers not to leave Eastern Pakistan and not to give up one inch of land. The position in the Western Pakistan is different. There the non-Muslims have left. But we are determined to stay on. As for behavior, it depends upon the majority community by their behavior to get the Confidence of the minority people. The minority people cannot create by their conduct confidence in the majority. The majority people should behave in such a way that the minority people may not be afraid of them and may not suspect them....
Dr. Ishtiaq Husain Qureshi: On a point of personal explanation, Sir, I never said, or implied in my speech that my friends on the opposite side were suffering from the fear of the seen. Unfortunately, they have been suffering from the fear of the unknown and my point was that the Objectives.
