Sonia is in the Chinese capital at the invitation of the Peoplesâ Republic of China (PRC) to attend the inaugural function of Olympics-2008. Significantly, PRC did not find it necessary to officially invite India as a country. Neither the President nor the Prime Minister of its largest neighbour got the invite,<b> while both the President and PM of Pakistan were cordially invited.</b>
Indiaâs foreign minister Pranab Mukherjee had travelled to China (naturally in the governmentâs chartered aircraft) to personally collect the invitation to his party boss. He personally handed it over to the queen mother immediately upon return.
