MR. DEPUTY CHAIRMAN: I think h has already replied to this question about recall of our Ambassador. Let us not repeat the same question to which the hon. Minister has already replied.
SHRIA. G. KULARNI: I have raised it in a different context.
MR. DEPUTY CHAIRMAN: Whatever it is he has replied that the Ambassador will not be recalled.
SHRI A. G. KULKARNI: That question was regarding the dismissal of the Ambassador. I have asked for the recall of the Ambassador temporarily.
SARDAR SWARAN SINGH: Sir, I do not think it will be wise to recall our Ambassador. We must not forget that this suggestion generally in made and experience shows that this does not help. We have not recalled our Ambassador-our High Commissioner-even from Pakistan and even in Peking we keep a mission. Therefore, it is not proper for us, merely because we do not agree with the policy of a particular Government, to recall our Ambassador. That is not a very practicable suggestion. That is all that he has asked.
MR. DEPUTY CHARIMAN: Mr. Lokamath Misra.
SHRI BIJU PATNAIK (Orissa): Is the Minister in a position to give an assurance..
MR. DEPUTY CHAIRMAN: I have called Mr. Lokanth Misra please.
SHRI BIJU PATNAIK: I was just asking for a clarification...
MR. DEPUTY CHAIRMAN: But I have to follow the list before me.
SHRI BIJU PATNAIK: I am not making a speech. I am just asking for a clarification.
MR. DEPUTY CHAIRAMAN: I think Mr. Misra is also seeking a clarification.
SHRI BIJU PATNAIK: I only wish to know from the Minister.
MR. DEPUTY CHAIRMAN: No, no, please sit down.
SHRI A. D. MANI (Madhya pradesh): Sir, he comes very rarely to the House. You should please allow him.
MR. DEPUTY CHAIRMAN: After all, we have to follow the list first.
SHRI V. ANANDAN (Tamil Nadu): It is not a question he is asking. HE is only asking for a clarification and you can allow him.
SHRI BIJU PATNAIK: I wish to know from the Minister if he will kindly clarify.
SHRI A. P. CHATTERJEE (West Bangal): On a point of order. I hope my friend will not take it otherwise the practice has been that you call the list first and thereafter the list is exhausted, if anybody else wants to ask for clarifications he can ask. I think the honorable Member there can ask for clarifications. Certainly he is entitled to ask for clarifications.
MR. DEPUTY CHARIMAN: All right, Mr. Patnaik, please sit down. Now Mr. Misra.
