The United Progressive Alliance (UPA) Government is in minority in Parliament as far the nuclear deal is concerned. The Government will not be able to get the agreement ratified in Parliament. The Left only oppose the deal in Parliament categorically and decisively. They must go to people and mobilise them against the deal. UPA will pay a heavy political price, if UPA still wants to pursue the deal. Not only the Left parties, but also of people as a whole oppose the Nuclear deal.
The nuclear deal cannot be seen as an isolated incident. It was part of a larger strategic alliance that the U.S. was trying to forge with India. UPA should clarify to people what was the common strategic goal of India and the U.S.
The U.S. launched its onslaught on Iraq as part of its designs to gain control over the oil reserves in West Asia. It is with the same goal that it is now targeting Iran. India must not share the same intentions.
UPA seemed to be thinking that India could become a "great power" with the support of the U.S. But they forget the price that India will to pay to receive the U.S.' assistance. UPA tries to make India a junior partner of the U.S.-led imperialist alliance.
The previous NDA regime started the initiative in forging a strategic alliance with the U.S., and the present UPA Government appeared to be completing them. And yet, the Common Minimum Programme of the UPA does not mention anything about strategic partnership with the U.S.

dear sahadevan
u leftists r only paper tigers. u have agreed for discussion in parliament under a rule, which does not call for voting. so there is no question of minority and majority in nuclear deal.
u people do not want india to tilt towards usa, but u do not want to vote against this issue, as then the central govt will fall, which u don't want to happen in the name of secularism. in india anti hinduism and pro minoritism is secularism unlike anywhere else in the world. it is discriminatory. though leftists r said to b non religious, u take sides of muslim fundamentalists for votes.

10000000000% right bhai..i know their plans very well. If one read carefully on Praksh Karat wordings then the answer is there itself. They are biggest traitors than terrorists. Even Bin laden is better than these communists. At least he survived for the last several years...

Mr. Kapil, if we want to call biggest traitor, then it is the present congress leadership only. Indian National Congress established for getting freedom for Indians, but the same Indian National Congress now begging to rule India by a foreign lady.
When President don't have any work to do on daily basis or even monthly basis why do we need another supporter as Vice president for Idle people, seems India is wasting tons of money for these kind of Political unemployed people.
