New Foreign Secretary
by Pravin on Sep 03, 2006 04:41 PM

I wish Mr. Menon all the best in this tough job. Except the Nepal fiasco, Saran also did well. I call Nepal policy a fiasco, because India ended up supporting the Maosit rebels. These Maoists are linked with the Naxalites running amok the entire northern belt of India itself. It could have been avoided. There was no reason for India to be overly emotional about bringing democracy in Nepal, afterall the Nepalese politicians are known for their ungratefulness and corrupt practices. They forget about what India has done the moment they come to power. We hope to see a tougher grip on the Naxalites through a stronger approach towards the Nepalese Maoists during the tenure of Mr. Menon.
