He made the remarks while addressing a workshop of party spokespersons from the states earlier this week when the issue of internal security was being discussed, party general secretary Ajay Maken said today. Former Home Secretary G K Pillai and Prof Radha Kumar of Delhi University spoke on the issue at the workshop. PTI
