Vice President releases book on experiences of 33 distinguished diplomats

New Delhi, Apr 15 (IBNS)- Vice President M. Hamid Ansari released a book entitled "India and the World – Through the eyes of Indian Diplomats" edited by Surendra Kumar at a function here on Wednesday.

Addressing the occasion, the Vice President said that the book has been very rightly described as a Bouquet of 33 Flowers as it is a fair description of experiences of 33 distinguished diplomats in a book.

The book is a unique treasure of thoughts and ideas of 33 Indian Diplomats who have collectively put in more than 1150 years in Indian Foreign Service, representing three generations- those who joined in 1950s, in the 1960s and in the 1970s.

It is a healthy cocktail of reflections and reminiscences, hard-nosed analysis and dispassionate interpretation and, of course, some crystal ball gazing.

Editor Surendra Kumar founded Indo-American Friendship Association in 2010.
