Pkl. Thursday ,7th April 2005. Carlyle ,once wryily observed that Mankind has always failed to learn any lessons from past; nothing more succinctly illustrates such dyspeptic humour of the cynical wit than the disgraceful lack of foresight of the socalled mandarins of the Raisina Hill... The IBs, the Security advisers , the echelons of different defence-Services ,working not always in tandem in the troubled and disturbed conditions of crisis infested Kashmir Valley.... This looks like locking the stable as the horse has already bolted... Dharmendra Goel
