Protect Gandhi family mission and like always blame Narsimha Rao.
Quote:The Anderson issue showed no signs of abating today with PV Narasimha Rao's son, Ranga Rao suggesting that his father would not have taken a decision on his own on granting "safe passage" to the Union Carbide chief a few days after the 1984 Bhopal gas tragedy.
Contesting the claim made by the then Foreign Secretary M K Rasgotra that Narasimha Rao was instrumental in allowing Warren Anderson to leave the country, Ranga Rao said, "I don't think my father took such a big decision on his own".
"He had his own superiors. He had his own colleagues," Ranga Rao told television channels adding, "to put the entire blame on my father is unfair."
Rasgotra had claimed that the decision to give Anderson safe passage was taken by the Home Ministry under Rao
in consultation with the Cabinet Secretary.
Protect Gandhi family mission and like always blame Narsimha Rao.
