Will there ever be any consensus on our foreign policies. Just look at what we have:
Communists: Anti USA, anti Israel, pro China and pro all Islamic countries.
BJP: Was pro USA, but after denial of Visa to Modi by USA,their views are bound to be fudged. As for their relationship with Arab and other Islamic countries, will entirely depend on their attitude to Muslims in India. And, of course, in turn how Muslims treat BJP will also determine their attitude. All in all, it is difficult to see them having a clear cut foreign policy.
Congress: Most confused of the lot. They have to appease the minorities, ignore the majority community, appear to be pro-USA, pro-Europe, pro-China, pro-Islamic countries (but pro-Iran will be frowned upon by Europe and USA)and so on and so forth. Where does it leave Russia in the bargain. Just ask Pranab Mukherjee who got a royal snub when he last visited Russia.
All other regional parties: In the direction where the wind blows. In other words, they do not have any policy except to support or oppose the Government in power depending on their constituencies.
All in all, that the result of the nuclear deal in the Parliament will perhaps evolve a consensus among our politicians is only a chimera. They will be as confused as ever.
This is a matter of serious concern that the fate of the nation is in the hand of such party leaders, that are seeing they personal growth with huge bank balance rather than the nations growth, With such a situation, we will never reach our goal to be called a DEVELOPED COUNTRY.
BJP is not against the deal, but it was for the deal and now, its in a hurry to form the government, so its voting against the deal.
CMP: no words, every month atleast 2-3 bhands in Kerala and Bengal, We dont want to live with such a crazy stuff.
Other small time party, want to be noticed and get into power and have good position in the Parliament, so its voting for and against the deal.
Crazy, if you have a problem with UPA, well and good, atleast vote for the deal rather than voting against it.
If you against the UPA govt, good, vote for public interest, not for your bank balance guys.

Well Said Ahmed. The UPA also has lost its credibility in many areas like inflation, clean governence etc. However, the Nuke deal is something that they should win for the future of this country and Gen Next. The pathetic Left has no vision and the regional parties are blind as ever. We need a powerful India with strong secular credentials and a new generation which has a vision to take India to the future and forefront of the world.

WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THE PLOT TO STALL NUCLEAR DEAL(BY THE BJP)?WHICHWAS UNCOVERED ON TV THIS EVENING. ALL I WANT TO SAY IS BJP AND ITS SUPPORTERS HAVE MONSTUROUS EGO WHICH WILL BE HURT IF NUCLEAR DEAL GOES THROUGH WITH CONGRESS IN POWER.THAT MONEY AHA I DOUBT WHETHER ITS A PLOT TO DELAY THE TRUST VOTE .I AM SURE BJP LEADERS ARE SCARED OF LOOSING.
The discussion must be held with all decorum and we must see all sides of an issue before concluding. We should not be synical but to the point since this a matter of country and its future. It seems that leaders and scientists have done good home work and we must move on. Agreement and cooperations are in interest of concerned parties and these keep on changing as per circumstances but we should get into international matters to paly an effective role.
Who cares what is going to happen I am only happy to know that these people who loot the common Man are put to a lot of tension and anxicious moments and sleepless nights and are kept on there toes and full of tension i hope it remains this way 365 days an year so that they fight amoungst themselves like dogs and leave the common man alone to live in peace I only hope that elections come every two years and all these goons are kept on there toes trying to pull eachothers legs to claim the majority but should be pulled down by the other before he settles down in his seat The public also should strive to give vote in such a way that no own gets a majority and every one is kept to fight with each other like street dogs which fight for leftovers thrown out after a feast in a function.

Is it not better for us to ensure that only good people are elected who have the national and "common man's" interests in mind?
Elections every two years - just to keep these people fighting with each other - who's paying for it? And these people have the tendency to get US involved in their fights and we foolishly fall for their ploys.

Public opinion ?? It is we who choose the politicians to power. Stand beside them. And if you lose faith then might as well vote for someone else. What do you know about the nuclear deal ? Leave the decision making onto them. I have full faith in Dr Manmohan Singh.
