This is so much different from when I joined the Indian Foreign Service in 1984. Then, foreign policy and external affairs was largely considered as an esoteric and strange subject, and diplomats were thought of those lucky guys who lived in great comfort abroad, wining and dining and occasionally let slipping a lie or two on behalf of the nation. From the early 1960s until the late 1980s, India was battling its many challenges at home and had little time or patience for foreign affairs. The only ‘foreign’ object of envy and welcome in our homes in those days was the NRI or PIO brother/sister/uncle or aunt and his or her bag full of goodies like imported chocolates, cookies, perfumes, toiletries, wines and cigarettes, the likes of which were rarely seen then in most Indian homes.
