Kamal Nath: Well, absolutely likely. It can also be that even the Cabinet doesn't like it. But I normally don't come up with proposals, which others don't like.

Karan Thapar: So, this is an instance where Kamal Nath is coming up with a proposal which he believes make sense from all points of view and you are prepared to a very good extent to stick your neck out because you think this is a sensible thing to try out.

Kamal Nath: There is no sticking my neck out. It's in pursuance of our government's policy. Why do I stick my neck out? I want all-inclusive growth. Industry says we must have all-inclusive growth. So here let's go about it and have it. How do you want it? I enable you.

Karan Thapar: One last question. How confident are you that you will get Cabinet support behind this idea?

Kamal Nath: I am confident that we will come up with a proposal which generates employment in areas where there is no scope. Obviously, people are going to like it.

Karan Thapar: Kamal Nath, a pleasure talking to you on Devil's Advocate.
