I have no idea. I haven't yet looked into any papers. But there is going to be no witch-hunt. We don'tbelieve in that. But we are going to put things that went wrong, right. We have to do things in theinterest of India, not in the interest of a political organisation or a particular party. The foreign policyof India is not anybody's private enterprise.
What about the exercise of Pravasi Bharatiya Diwas? Are you going to modify it anyway?
We have now appointed a ministry which is under Jagdish Tytler, and he's going to look at it. I will tell you,in the first meeting that took place, Mr L M Singhvi was the moving spirit. Sir Sriddath Ramphal --a mostdistinguished person from the West Indies, Guyana, of Indian origin, who was the secretary-general of theCommonwealth for 15 years, and had been foreign minister--was not invited till Manmohan Singh reminded Singhvi:please do something. A booklet was brought out about those who visited Trinidad, Tobago, Guyana. There wasjust no mention that Indira Gandhi visited in 1968. I went with her. The only Indian Prime Minister to visitTrinidad, Tobago and Guyana was in 1968. This is distortion, and displays a total lack of historicalknowledge, and of understanding the roots of India's foreign policy.
Do you agree with the joint statement that was issued when Vajpayee met Musharraf in January?
Well, you see the thing is this. Vajpayee went to Kathmandu where he was like a sour individual. WhenMusharraf shook hands with him, Vajpayee did so reluctantly. We should have the bigness to say, fine, we are abigger country. Then the flip-flops. On May 16, 2003, Atal Behari was in Gangtok. There he said that he willhave no talks with Pakistan until cross-border terrorism ends. Forty-eight hours later, Vajpayee was inSrinagar and said, 'I want to extend the hand of friendship.' What has happened in 48 hours? No answers.
