Advani got it wrong in his book: Blackwill

Senior Bharatiya Janata Party leader L K Advani appears to have got it wrong when he contends that he spoke to former United States Ambassador Robert Blackwill, seeking Washington's help, to end the 1999 Kandahar hijack crisis. Blackwill, while responding to Advani's contention made in his memoirs My Country, My Life, said he was in the US during the Kandahar crisis and had come to India as Ambassador two years after the hijack crisis.
