Cross-border warmth If only governments could learn from their peoples HARINDER S. SIKKA
I was apprehensive when I was invited to participate in the Kirloskar Golf Cup at Lahore this month. Yet I looked forward to visiting Pakistan for the sake of my mother who wished to visit the country of her birth. It was also a God sent opportunity for both of us to visit the holy gurudwaras at Nankana Sahib and Panja Sahib. |

Mufti hits a hole-in-one It’s only a beginning but peace-through-golf is a clever idea Harinder S. Sikka Hundreds of tiny white missiles were fired in Srinagar this weekend. And mostly by foreigners, many of them visiting J&K’s capital for the first time. No one, fortunately, got hurt. Instead, local Kashmiris got a taste of power golf! The diplomats and heads of MNCs who took part in J&K Chief Minister Mufti Mohammed Sayeed unique peace initiative through golf went back reasonably convinced that the valley was no longer reverberating to the sound of guns. It was also apparent that all the participants were mesmerised, both by the scenic beauty of Srinagar and that of what is possibly one of the best golf courses in the world: The Royal Spring Golf Course. Surrounded by dense jungle on either side, it was a treat to watch jackals, deer and other wildlife crossing the fairways at will. |

WEDNESDAY. JUNE 12, 2002 Dirty money, dirtier politic HARINDER SIKKA PAKISTAN has been successful in waging a proxy war on the Indian soil on three fronts. Firstly, through regular influx of terrorism, it has forced almost the entire Indian military to be on the highest state of alert, simultaneously engaging the police and Para-military forces like never before. Secondly, through kidnappings, ransoms and well-planned riots, it is damaging our country's secular image. Thirdly, by pumping enormous sums of fake currency, it is raising the levels of parallel economy to unprecedented proportions that could cause a near crippling blow to the Indian economy. |

Betrayal by the betrayed? Vishnu Bhagwat's latest book inflicts serious damage on the Indian Navy by LT COMMANDER (RETD) HARINDER SIKKA
 THE book is indeed titled correctly. It' a betrayal-right from the word go. Firstly. Mr Vishnu Bhagwat addreses himself as an Admiral. a title he can no longer use after the sacking as per the Supreme Court directive. The venom spewing 400-paged book. not entirely based on truth. is a rather painful reminder of Mr Bhagwat's infamous writ petition of the 1990s that had run into over 400 pages. On both occasions. starting from the prime minister down the line. Mr Bhagwat has faulted the entire system. But what is even more disturbing is the timing of the book's release, On one side there was a fleet of 80 warships from 25 different countries lined up for the president's review. On the other side was Mr Bhagwat standing at the. Nariman Point distributing his book freely to anyone who even remotely looked foreigner.
