A political row has erupted over former Army Chief General MM Naravane's unpublished book, with AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi slamming the Centre. Owaisi alleged that the government failed to give clear directions to Gen Naravane during the India-China clashes and accused it of accepting China's perception. Questioning the Centre's stand, Owaisi asked whether this reflected its "patriotism."
