The fact is that except Karat and Yechuri nobody else knows about this. I very much doubt if they would like to relinquish their bargaining position at this juncture. If they withdraw they stand no where. At the moment they are enjoying all perks without any responsibility. PM is stubborn because he wants his name written in the history with at least one action - right or wrong. There is nothing else in his credit for this period of 4 years.

you are right ... these commies will give threats but will not withdraw support ... because who will fear them after they have drawn the support.
there needs to be a movement in bengal and kerela to reject commies and vote some other party ... I don't care if it's BJP or congress or laloo's or mulayam's party that wins from bengal and kerala ... just not these commies.

9% growth for 4 years consistently is a stupendous achievement.
Near 4% agriculture growth for 4 years is even more stupendous achievement. This is why there is no food riots in the country unlike other parts of the world

Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has to bring a split in the BJP by offering the BJP MPs crores of rupees per head as the BJP MPs are taking bribes for asking questions in the parliament. So that his government will survive for the remaining period of 9 months.
I think bjp will support congress/ upa for the remaining time till election if congress immidiately passes common civil code gets rid of article 370 scrap the sacchar report hang afazal ban commies get a real PM

There is a famous proverb in Sanskrit stands like "Even if you make a dog king still he will chew the shoes"
These idiots are bypassing most important issues like inflations, rising cost, stock market crash etc. They (UPA and Lefts) are real traitor of the nation.
UPA-Congress did not place the draft into the parliament and seek concensus of the house. BJP is in the opposition in the house, so they should be respectfully managed by Congress which is not done by Sonia-MMSingh.
If lefts dare to withdraw support to UPA they should do it today (july 1) instead of making any more drama. although I dislike communists, I support their opposition to puppet PM, MMSingh's (and Congreess) stands to deal N-deal. Had their been PVN Rao or Vajpayee the situation would have been different. Most likely they would picked any left leader (jo jaada baat marta hai) to represent IAEA. That's the lack of vision of puppet PM, MMSingh.

I think all the nationalist parties like BJP are for the deal. As they have said in the past they are trying to push the govt harder to negotiate even better clauses favorable to India. Infact congress dragged it feet and waiting to complete its govt term. They gave preference to be in power than some thing beneficial to the country. The real culprit here are the commis who are in love with china and do care more about Chinese security thans India’s. soniya is hopeful that is they seal this deal there will be something to show for UPA ‘s achievements otherwise Upa government is one of the worst one India has ever had (along with VP singh, devegouda and gujaral also)

You dont know? its not my job to educate you but for example they created the 'golden square' highway project. they started the discussion on the n deal, when they were in power the inflation was well below what it is now more imp they did not try to divide people by appeasing minority they did some mistakes too (like kandahar, peace with pak etc) but india came out stronger in the end

You see everyone in India thinks the Inflation is a dial that is controlled by the Congress. How literate of you. Please google the spike in food grain prices, oil, gold, precious metals etc. and you will see the reason for the Inflation. If you think the BJP will come to power and wave a magic wand... dream on pal.

McLaren...what was the amount of loan waiver given recently by our govt.? 60,000 crores right? did your fav. PM and UPA chairman sign cheques from their personal savings account?
You go and drive a mclaren, let the people travelling in smaller cars think about housing budget and what policies can set that right.
RE:RE:commis

you see loan waivers which are sunsidies to poor farmers and demand a similar subsidy for rich urban people who need cheaper fuel for their cars.
how much subsidy will the govt. give? they have already overspent on loan waivers ... now people want them to subsidize fuel, steel and cement too

RE:commis

chidambram has zero control on international prices ... this prices are totally out of control .. he cannot subsidize oil, wheat, sugar, copper, steel, aluminum which are getting more and more expensive ...
why should govt. pay for stuff, so you and I can get it for below cost?
If Lefts want to withdraw support from UPA, then why do they wait untill 5th July after IAEA meet, they should withdraw before that, even now (July 1). Isn't some short of drama (give and take) going on ? UPA and Lefts are pathetic. Although I hate communists, but I support their view of N-deal (provided they do not appease muslims and china).
BJP and only BJP can give a meaning ful government. Otherwise India is doomed. Intelligent capable people are there only in BJP. Other parties have crooks idiots and criminals and spineless useless and clueless scholars who wil ltake the country to disaster.

The people of India are the only ones who can give a meaningful solution to the problems that plague the nation. By voting the Congress to majority.

Congrss majority? dont even dream of that they dont have 150 now! any way who will be the PM ? will they buy real dog or just get away with using some one like MM?
I am no BJP agent, but guys lets vote BJP to majority as it would be very difficult to develop india with many party coalition govt, we have tested Cong and their muslim apeasement, no doubt BJP has some thugs in them but their ratio is small compared to other parties, lets give them a free hand for next five years and see what they can do for us, they were never able to make single party govt.

BJP has been a failure in every aspect ... they slept and let kargil happen .. they failed to handle the IA hijacking properly ... they promised to build ram mandir, but never their word ... then they tried to woo muslims by praising Jinnah in pakistan .... I mean they have never been right on any issue of national interest.
The luck is with them today as people are fed up with inflation and so will vote for a change. While BJP should do better this time, I doubt thta they will get more than 175 seats and will enter into a coalition with regional parties to stay in power ... same linda mess that UPA is in.
Clause 103-b-4 states "Secure India’s full and active participation in United States efforts to dissuade, isolate, and, if necessary, Sanction and contain Iran for its efforts to acquire weapons of mass destruction, including a nuclear weapons capability and the capability to enrich uranium or reprocess nuclear fuel, and the means to deliver weapons of mass destruction."
The clause is pro-India. We cannot have another nuclear neighbor. China & Pakistan is bad enough.
This clause is the reason why the Left and BSP term the agreement as anti-Muslim. The question is why the BJP joins them in opposing the deal - for a few Muslim votes?

The BJP is not opposed to the deal in fact they will sign it in a matter of days if they come to power. They are deriving political profits by not supporting Congress.

What I mean is that in the name of National Interest the major political parties of India can work together and ensure the deal goes through. You cannot imagine how much China and Pak have spent to block this deal. We are almost a superpower and this will make us one in a matter of years. We need power to grow. But the BJP wont back the deal now. It will wait for the govt to collapse, try and win the election in the name of religion and anti-incumbency
