 SHRI LOKANATH MISRA(Orissa); The United States of America has betrayed all the democracies of the world by chasing after chou-En-Lai's favor who is an aggressor thereby ultimately supporting Yahya Khan, which has given Pakistan, rather which has emboldened Pakistan to throw a challenge to India for war. Our Foreign Minister is very complacent when he says that in case of war we shall take up the challenge, we shall defend ourselves. I do not know how far the gentlemen sitting by the side of the Foreign Minister is in agreement with him even though outside Parliament House he makes all sorts of statements saying that we are prepared to face anything. That s what we were also hearing from. Mr. Krishana Menon before 1962. And since the Minister gets protection from the Chair in regard to our defense preparedness in the garb of national interest, all this is concealed from the House and no Member of the House really knows what the Pandora's box contains in the shape of fence preparedness.

 SHRI P.C MITRA (Bihar): You know that India has got no capacity to defend.

 SHRI LOKANATH MISRA: Extra smartness of Shri Mitra will carry him nowhere-neither here nor in Pakistan.

 Let me go on with my own queries. Pakistan has already given us a warning. This morning during the Question Hour our Foreign Minister said that we have also been served with a warning by China. To that particular warning. I have my greatest of objections. India is not a student in a Chinese class room where the Chinese Government could serve India with a warning. We should have rejected that warning and thrown it in the waste paper basket. That apart, since Yahya Khan has been emboldened to issue this threat, supposing he cooks up a case.

 SHRIA.P. JAIN (Uttar Pradesh): That is very hypothetical.

 MR. DEPUTY CHAIRMAN: You do not reply to interruptions. You put your question.

 SHRILOKANATH MISRA: I object to shri Ajit prasad Jain's remark. He had the experience of being a Central Minister and still he becomes irresponsible. Therefore, I take objection to that. People of his status should he a little received on matters like this. He should not be flippant like other standing in the queue for Ministership. He should not be that flippant.

 SHRIA. P. JAIN: I said it is hypothetical.

 SHRI COKANATH MISRA: I should have that reply from Sardar swaran singh and not from shri Ajit Prasad Jain till he becomes a Minister. He does not count now.

 MR. DEPUTY CHAIRMAN: You put your question.

 SHRI LOKANATH MISRA: shri Ajit prasad Jain, so far as government of India is concerned, is insignificant, whatever might be his loyalty for Shrimati Indira Gandhi.

 SARDAR SWARAN SINGH: In this respect, you are wrong.

 SHRI LOKANATH MISRA: He may be somebody in the Congress Party.

 SARDAR SWARAN SINGH: He counts a great deal-much more than you count in your Party.
