...elder statesman, Chakravarti Rajagopalachari, leader of the conservative Swatantra Party, demanded that Nehru fire Menon as De fense Minister and take over the post himself. He charged that India's defense policy "has proved to be a miserable failure. It is meaningless to accuse the enemy of cheating-it's the enemy's business to cheat."
