Any person who claims to have security expert in international relation should have seen what is not apparent at the heat of the moment. Unfortunately Raman is just an arm chair ctitic bereft of intellectual skills. He advised Advani not to go to Pakistan and it will be a big embarrassment for him and the country. But he came out as an acceptable leader in Pakistan, he changed his perception in one go. What Advani did is a master stroke. Actually he subtly told Pakistan, how much they strayed from the vision of Jinnah and the discussion should have kicked up in Pakistan. Moreover he did several thing like kick start the rennovation of Hindu temples in Pakistan, nobody has ever thought of being possible. He said Babri demolition is saddest day, he never said that there will not be any temple there. In one stroke he is become an acceptable leader in both the countries. Problem of the BJP is, it became a pariah after the election. Advani has the intellectual capacity, understanding and he knows the end game. He can take it out, if given a free hand. All allies in congress have no choice currently otherwise both (BJP and Congress) have same number of seats. NDA did marvoulous job
