"National consensus in foreign policy is, after all, a legacy of the grand old Congress party."
Is that true? LOL! Did Jawahar Lal Nehru took the nation and its party into confidence when he gave away Kashmir to Pakis by agreeing to UN intervention? Did he do the same when he declined the offer of making India a member of Permenant Member of UN Security Council (and instead suggested China to be a member?).
Even if he says he is a critic of this deal with US, I have my doubts if he is speaking for India's interests. After all, Left and other commies are also against the deal - right?
Where do these diplomats crop up from at such times? Oh, I forget, it is Sheela Bhatt who is interviewing - she is quite apt at locating persons who don't matter :)
