This article clearly shows how the recruitment standards for such sensitive national security positions are so sub standard that we have an ex-RAW secretary speaking loftily about someone who invested a lot in terrorism as state policy against India. Of all people RAW should know how she let loose terrorism against India. It is scary to see the myopic, slavish, fawning obituary written by Sood whose brains, conscience and memory have clearly retired with him. No wonder terrorists are having a field day in India. I wonder if he would write similarly if Prabhakaran, Osama kick the bucket. The congress govt should be proud of its accomplishments in making RAW into a national insecurity agency.

She did not do it.... It was Pak Army did it during herr stint. Even if she would have wanted to stop it, She could not have done it. Army did it and blame went to her. Just like Kargil- Sharrif was blamed

If you are the Prime Minister you ARE responsible! If Pakistan won the Kargil was do you think Mush would have taken credit for it? Sharif would have been shouting from rooftops that he won Kargil!!! If you are the person in charge, you are responsible for the successes as well as the disasters!! If she could not have stopped it, why did she not resign? Pandu, if something bad is going to happen, will you just fold your hands and say I cannot stop it?
