Virenji,
I do appreciate your considered views on the impasses that got exchanged between me and another interlocutor in this forum. I am of the view that this forum needs to be kept as distinct as possible from tea shop talks, as it is a medium for exchange of views among civilized people. Without going into the various allegations and name calling, I have a strong feeling that my presence in this forum is a source of provocation for certain individuals to be abusive which in turn degrades the standing of the forum itself.
I have served this nation for a little over three decades, particularly in the field of international relations and has virtually seen Indiaâs rise from an improvised South Asian Nation to that of a major economic and military power. Today we stand with pride for our achievements of the last sixty years. Having said that, you will agree that our system is yet to be perfect so that all the citizens can have an assured descent lifestyle. Therefore, we should turn a blind eye to the outstanding social and economic problems of the nation.
I will soon be leaving for an assignment as Indiaâs representative in another country and as such it may not be perhaps appropriate for me to get into mud slinging exchanges with other bloggers. So I take leave of you and my fellow bloggers in this forum.
Wish all of you all the best
Jai Hind
