Mr.K.R.Nayar who worked in PTI once asked
Lal Bhagadhur Sastri about Indo-Ceylon Agreement. He questioned whether the next
government would honor the agreement entered between Indian and Ceylon by Sastri
and Sri Mao Bandranayake.
Sastri hesitated to answer. But Kamaraj
immediately answered to the reporter which gave him a surprise. Because it was
in clear English , which is given below :
" Don't go and print any such
suggestions in the paper. This is an agreement signed by two Democratic
governments , just as any Democratic government India would honor this
agreement. we expect any successor government in Ceylon to honor this
agreement."
Sastri said with joy , " I agree with
Kamaraj ". It was a proof of his political knowledge about the
international affairs.
There was a Congress conference in February
1966. His foresight was very clean.
He pointed out his talk at the conference of
Bhuvaneshwar about to start new industries to produce essential commodities to
the poor to control price hike.
