No One Insulted Me Says Vajpayee

Out rightly rejecting Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf's claims on the failure of the Agra summit, former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee has expressed "surprise" on the comments saying clearly that no one ever insulted the general or him in any manner during the summit.

Vajpayee says that the summit failed because the general refused to describe the violence in Jammu and Kashmir as terrorism and due to no other reason as described in Musharraf's new book.

"If General Musharraf had been willing to accept our position in 2000, the Agra summit would have become successful, and the three subsequent years may have proved very valuable to take our initiative forward," he said.

Recalling his meeting with Vajpayee in Agra, Musharraf had said in his book,  "I told him bluntly that there seems to be someone above the two of us who had the power to overrule us. I also said that today both of us had been humiliated."
