Akhand Bharat is what the West wants!:-) :-) Western knowledge of South Asian matters is quite amusing, as this news report in USA Today shows! A snippet from this report: "...While Sharif remained under house arrest Wednesday, Musharraf met with President K.R. Narayanan and a range of politicians. " Talk of Akhand Bharat!!! It would have been more fruitful if he had met with his ally, Sonia Gandhi, instead! She is the only one in India who thought India lost the Kargil battle. usatoday.com
