dated March 7, 1957: Nehru's apology to Queen
Prime Minister Nehru on March 6 offered his apologies to Queen
Elizabeth of Britain for a "wholly intemperate" editorial note, which
appeared in the latest number of the fortnightly Economic Review,
published by the All-India Congress Committee. The note, strongly
criticising the recent visit of the Queen to Portugal, had described
it as "birds of the same feather flocking together on the eve of
(their) doom." Mr. Nehru, in a statement, said "My attention has been
drawn to a note in the Economic Review on Queen Elizabeth's visit to
Portugal. I was greatly disturbed to read this note. On enquiry, I
found that the Editor, Mr. Shriman Narayan, had been away from Delhi
and this number was issued in his absence and without his knowledge. I
deeply regret the publication of this note, which is wholly
intemperate and in very bad taste. I am particularly disturbed that
the Queen's name should have been brought into this and I should like
to offer my apologies to her."
