asked the Prime Minister what is the present position with regard to the undertaking by the last Government to support the rupee exchange in India?

The PRIME MINISTER

There has been no change in policy.

May I ask if the banking authorities in other countries who came to our assistance were consulted about this guarantee of the rupee exchange?

The PRIME MINISTER

Neither on this nor on anything else.
