A bumpy ride
As the Atal Behari Vajpayee government completes one year, its greatest achievement is that it has survived for so long. It has given a lie to those who had forecast that heading, as the Prime Minister does, a ragtag coalition of over a dozen political parties, he would survive at best for a few months.

Commission & omissions
The Union government, when it appointed Justice D.P. Wadhwa to conduct a one-man inquiry into the gruesome murders of Australian missionary Graham Staines and his two sons, did so with a specific objective.

Reactive to proactive
The government completes a year in office. A review of its foreign policy performance would also involve its responses to specific issues.
