there was a long tlak about the parliament debating and approving the agreement. apparenlty, that ain't going to happen as the deal is consumated in a smoke filled room behind the scene. congressis can't help but being congressis. time for a ten million people march on nai dillee.
cant help it but we r a CHAMCHA nation where both the PM and Pres. bow in front of the UPA boss..really sad...anyway nice to see our man-mohan show some arrogance in front of the communal fanatics(excluding VAJPAYEE offcourse)..
Whether it is India's Nuclear Deal or else our opposition (principly BJP) will have to take thousand birth to Match the Unique combination of our PM Dr. Manmohan Singh, UPA Chairperson Ms. Sonia Gandhi and New President of India Madam Pratibha Patil, this simple GOD given gift real HINDUSTAN.
It is certainly a proud moment for every progressive thinking Indian, unlike the fake Hindutwavdis and SanghParivar's, who can't think beyond cheating and looting the poor and uneducated Hindu's in the name of Fake Hindutwa.
we are the biggest democratic country and we dont have a system or institution like US Congress or any body to discuss about the deal and the problems the country is facing. we have to totally listen to and belive the POliticians and people in fofice a few burecrats and the media. growup India we need Intellects from all fields to discuss issues the country is facing like 1. security 2.policy making 3.linking rivers etc
The Nuclear Deal definitely benefits India. Not only in civilian energy sector but it is a path breaking deal which will benefit most areas where dual use (civilian & military) technologies are used. In today's era, most technology is dual use. It will immensely benefit ISRO too & will eventually get technology for Indian Defence Industries.
No doubt we have developed a lot on ur own. But tech transfer will benefit us in the long run and in multiple fields.The US needs India as much as we need the US for technology.
My contention to all those who oppose the deal is very plain and simple. If someone has already invented a circle, why should we waste time, money and effort to reinvent the same. Buy off the technology and then use our brains and money to move forward from there. We will reach up higher,faster and surer. We need to think of our growth and of our self interest.
A ship is always safe at the shores or in the dockyard but that is not what it is built for. Let us show more confidence and belief in our own country and in its abilities. We are a strong country and let us take on the world from a position of strength.

Hey genius, are you aware that our nuclear weapons capabilities are not fully developed yet? With this N-Deal, there is the danger that India will not conduct further tests, in order to improve its weapons to deter China & Pak, both of whom have more advanced weapons than India. What do we do then?
Also, don't forget that thorium gives India much more independence, which other powers seek to take away.
After 3 mile island accident in US, ( which did not result in human life loss) but around same time Horrible Chernobyl experience ( Russia has very poor safety records and 3rd grade technology. resulted in loss of a lot of human lives). US pulled the plug on futher expansion of Nuclear power plants.
But since than, world demand on Crude oil and Gas has gone up. Somewhere from 1995 onwards US started closing quite a few of its crude oil refineries also. ( To save its local environment)
So US needs Refined Crude (Gasoline / Diesel etc.) At the same time China / India / Russia are moving up on Crude oil needs. India population is more than 3 times US, if we start consuming oil at the same per capita rate as is US than world oil resource will be wiped out in no time. Hence it becomes important that we go nuclear while trying best to buy as much oil blocks as we can and have.
But remember that BPO job in India or setting up a 100% export oriented Refinery in India saves energy need or Carbon dioxide emmission to the country for whom we did BPO job or Refined the crude.
That is what US will try, it will offshore that work which gives it maximum carbon credits.
US is already pulling out of Crude oil refineries. Most of them will be close to the place where crude oil is produced.
Ofcourse for stretegic reasons US will not close all its Nuclear plants or oil refineries or petrochemical plants.
Wonder who is paying Ms. Bhatt for this one sided reporting of the matter. Read the language ' A BJP leader tole.....' 'A Senior BJP Functionary....', or 'Vajpayee didn't speak, Arun Shourie tried to argue....' or even saying 'deal is done'
