‘Our Diplomats Tend to Treat Smaller Non Hostile Neighbours Like Errant Schoolboys’ Curzonian blinkers
Much as we would like to exalt Jawaharlal Nehru as the founder of modern India’s foreign policy, like all other major countries our policy too derives its basis from one man, France’s Cardinal Richelieu who enshrined national interest as the only guiding principle to conduct affairs with other nations.
The French have an elegant phrase for it.
Raison d’état. Richelieu rejected the notion that policy should be based on values and sentimental considerations.

Move due to conflicting quota rules
Anna University has suspended admissions to two M. Tech programmes for which students were eligible for scholarship from the Centre’s Department of Biotechnology (DBT), as the rules of reservation governing admissions to these courses were in conflict with the State’s communal reservation rules.
In a circular on its website, the university announced that M. Tech in Biotechnology and M. Tech in Computation Biology programmes would not be offered this year. As the Central government’s rules of reservation were not acceptable to Tamil Nadu, the university was unable to proceed with admissions to the courses, the circular said.
