Interacting with reporters on Sunday just before delivering a motivational talk to young people, he said that 90% of the graduates in India are not employable. Criticizing India’s educational system, he said that a majority of government school teachers have not completed their matriculate exams and 50% of them do not have blackboards in the classrooms.

Regarding the issue of illegal Bangladeshi immigrants, he said that there are several Bangladeshi immigrants living in West Bengal and Assam, adding that, if this continues, Assam and West Bengal might become parts of Bangladesh and India might have a Bangladeshi PM. 

Voicing his opinion of the judiciary, Mr. Khera quoted Shanthi Bhushan, former union law minister, who had stated that 8 out of 16 judges are corrupt. In spite of this, the judiciary is not taking any measures, he added.
