Summary
This letter, dated August 10, 1962, is from C. Rajagopalachari in Madras to M. R. Masani, General Secretary of the Swatantra Party in Bombay. Rajagopalachari responds to Masani’s wire and argues that the desired result should be reached through personal discussion and respect for opposing views.
