Dear All I am quite baffled with the following paragraph,. If anybody has any information, please let us know. I find it very interesting. Honestly I have no clue of Sam Manekshaw-ULFA angle.
Outlook, July 14, 2008 http://www.outlookindia.com/full.asp?fodname=20080714&fname=Manekshaw+(F)&sid=1&pn=2 Gentlemen, There'll be no more retreat by Ashok Kr Mehta ...............What I was really after was to get the Field Marshal to appear on my TV programme, DefenceWatch. He kept me dangling for years without saying yes or no. Instead, in Room 405 he would regale me with stories he had told me earlier, and new ones. He would parry questions on the 1971 war, his role in the alleged payments to ULFA by Tata Tea, implicating a fellow Gorkha, then Assam Governor Gen S.K. Sinha. ....... Regards Mrinal Talukdar
