A lot of commentators have raised doubts about the proposed nuclear deal and its dangers (outsourcing India's security to the U.S., scietific community etc.). This commentator gets its right though. This deal represents a huge opportunity for India - a coming of age deal. It represents a seismic shift in U.S. policy. Rejecting it for unfounded national security or swadeshi (whatever that means) reasons would be a great mistake. Dr. Singh is an astute leader and a great visionary who knows that India needs external technology and partnership to blossom into a real power. We Indians have to loose the old baggage and be pragmatic.
