I would like to draw attention of / Government and the House to another matter. After the integration of Cooch-
Behar, there has been a number of small / pockets – they have been called enclaves –some of which are surrounded by Indian territory but belong to Pakistan and some / surrounded by Pakistan territory but belong to India. Something has to be done about these pockets. It is nearly seven /eight years that they have been lying in this position. There has been no administration in those pockets and (500) the people there are living in a most alarming condition. There have been all sorts of crimes, murders, dacoities etc. / No administration is working in those pockets. In our pockets surrounded by Pakistan territory, it is not possible for our/ Government to have any real administration in those areas; nor is it possible for the Pakistan Government to provide proper/ administration in their pockets surrounded by our territory. So people on both sides have been suffering in these pockets.

Then, / Sir, there was a proposal of the Summit Conference. I do not know why America was fighting shy about this (600) Conference. I think, my friend said, that if India was to be invited to the Summit Conference there was likely / to be some complication and trouble that might have come from Pakistan. Pakistan, in fact, protested. Are we to / think that the Summit Conference was abandoned practically to avoid giving any recognition ot India as a big power, as / a moral force? We cannot claim to be big power, from the military point of view. We have no / military strength, no financial backing, no industrial set-up of a big military power. But we have got a moral (700) prestige, and that prestige was recognized at least in some quarters. We have been recognized as friends of all the / weak nations who have been fighting for independence and liberation, and that is a moral asset.

Lastly, I should say / that our foreign policy has been more or less a success. There may be difference of opinion in minor details. / The foreign policy of India, we can say, is not a party policy, it is the national policy. That is / the general attitude of all the democratic countries; foreign policy is not ideology, but it is formulated on the basis (800) of national interest. Our foreign policy has also been formulated on the national basis, not on the basis of any / party ideology.
