Nagpur: Union Minister for roads, transport and highways, Nitin Gadkari who was dropped from BJP parliamentary board, said in Nagpur on Saturday that one should never indulge in use and throw.
He was addressing a gathering of entrepreneurs when he said a man is not finished when he is defeated but is finished when he quits, according to a report in India Today.
Gadkari added that human relationships are the biggest strength in business, social work or politics.
The BJP leader recalled an incident from his days from being a student leader, when Congress leader Shrikant Jichkar asked him to join the Congress for a better future.
Gadkari told Jichkar he would rather die by jumping into a well than join Congress because he does not like the ideology of the party.
He urged young entrepreneurs to never give up, asking them to remember former US president Richard Nixon's words from his autobiography that a man is not finished when he is defeated but is finished when he quits.
