New Delhi, Aug 15: Describing Prime Minister Atal
Bihari Vajpayee's Independence day speech as nothing
"remarkable", Congress today said the reference to Indo-Pak
relations "struck all right notes".
"It was an absolutely pedestrian, prosaic kind of speech. It struck all right notes on Indo-Pak relations and on those issues Congress party has no differences with the government", Congress spokesman S Jaipal Reddy said.
In fact, he said, on Foreign Policy issues, Congress had made it a point to go out of the way and express solidarity with the government.
Stating that huge differences existed with the government on domestic issues, Reddy said Congress did not want to extend it to Foreign Policy area. Bureau Report
