I recall a smiling Arun Jaitly washing away multiple provocative statements after sweeping the Gujarat Assembly with something to the effect that the statements made were not intent but part of the impact strategy.
So what are the rules: - Go for impact - Let the small print protect you - No need to be academic.
And the small print does say that India was requested to intercede and had to or be inundated by refugees.
So what Mr. Rahul Gandhi has come up with is a strategic success and it did require courage to make the move and he is holding up against the pressure.

Another small fact: We interceeded because we were attacked. It took an Indira Gandhi to stand up to the presence of the seventh fleet in the Bay Of Bengal. What were they doing there?
