I dont know about the Info-ads and WaPo? Do explain.
1. How is India's foreign relations with Iran domestic affairs?
2. What is the legitimate quid pro quo for Indian lobbying in the US?
3. Indian embassy in the US ran info-ads in the NYT and the Washington Post in the beginning of the Kargil counter-offensive, laying out its position and justifying it to a largely American audience. Why shouldn't the US be able to the same in India?
