Satinder Kumar Lambah, a respected Indian diplomat known for his work on India-Pakistan relations, left a memoir behind. It explores his extensive career and involvement in backchannel discussions during key incidents. The book highlights the differing approaches of past Indian prime ministers towards Pakistan and emphasises the importance of national consensus in shaping foreign policy. Lambah criticises the Modi government's approach of disengagement and warns against the dangers of ignoring a hostile neighbour. The book also examines the Kargil conflict and the potential for revived dialogue between the two nations. Despite its bureaucratic tone and known content, the book serves as a documentation of Lambah's experiences and offers insights into India-Pakistan relations.
