Please read the article in full. NaMo had made 5 visit to USA between 1998-2000 , two during Kargil war , and a few visists before and after. In those visists he had requested WB\IMF and US leaders to impose sanctions on Pakistan.
.....
Now what if USA had not imposed sanctions on Pakistan? And what is USa had continued aid to pakistan including supply of Helicopter parts and weapons? And what is USA had forced Israle NOT to supply Bofors shell to India. . Then we would have lost Kargil war. This was the REASON why we accepted US demand for ending the war and allow Pakistanies to pull out safely during 48 hour safe passage.

Hunt for Modi clues in 1999 trip
.
Washington, Sept. 25: Narendra Modi’s hitherto unknown role in the Kargil pullout forced on Pakistan by US President Bill Clinton on July 4, 1999, has thrown light on Modi’s style of functioning as Prime Minister which has confounded his cabinet colleagues, put the bureaucracy on its toes and drawn grudging praise in the media.
....
T.P. Sreenivasan, who was deputy chief of mission at the Indian embassy here during the critical week in the Kargil denouement, confirmed to The Telegraph that Modi rang him up after arriving in Washington in the last week of June 1999.
.......
“The amendment moved by Ackerman that potentially hurt Pakistanis financially in a way that mere condemnation by the US would not have affected them was critical to getting (then) Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif to pull out from Kargil on July 4, three days after the Ackerman amendment passed in the House committee,” a diplomat who handled Kargil matters in the ministry of external affairs at that time said.
........
To his great surprise, Modi told the senior diplomat that he wanted to meet people at the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF). “I was surprised,” said Sreenivasan, who was puzzled by Modi’s unusual request. “Usually visiting politicians from India want to meet Senators or members of the US cabinet and be photographed with them. But here was someone who wanted to meet only World Bank and IMF officials.”
.....
Sreenivasan said the response at the World Bank and the IMF when he offered an interaction with Modi was overwhelming. He realised that in financial institutions, they knew Modi — even then — much better than in the diplomatic establishment.
......
About 50 persons from the World Bank and the IMF responded to Sreenivasan’s invitation to meet Modi, far exceeding his expectations. “I had planned a sit-down dinner because I realised Modi had things to say and the international civil servants from finance and development sectors were very keen to listen to him. But I could accommodate no more than 20 persons at the dining table at my Washington home.”
.....
Eventually, he settled the dilemma by having two events in one night at his home. All the 50 or so invitees attended a reception where Modi mingled. Later, about 20 invitees adjourned to the dining table where they had an interactive exchange with the visiting BJP leader and RSS pracharak whose visit to the US this week these men and women are now looking forward to.
.....
Modi engaged in such persuasion the following day on Capitol Hill, according to Tiwari who helped organise a campaign that put pressure from Indian Americans on the House of Representatives.
Documents on Capitol Hill naturally do not offer records of Modi’s role in the Ackerman amendment because it would be heresy for any Congressman to acknowledge on record that a foreign leader was influencing their judgement or decisions. The US and its elected officials are presumed to be taking decisions solely in American interest of their own free will.
