How should we look in the face of the civilised world if we had so turned our back upon our duty and sovereign task?
I am trying to feel my way through the most difficult problem, the most difficult situation that a responsible Government can have to face.
But as I read it, as I listen to serious Indian experts with large experience, it all sounds estrangement and alienation even though it be no worse than superficial.
This is no mere case of barren wrangle and verbal recrimination.
