This is blackmail pure and simple.India should consider alternatives.one is not clear as to the benefits of the so called N-deal.Did we get into a trap? N-deal or no N-deal,we should not surrender our choice of what is best for the nation.If necessary the N-deal can be declared a No deal. Govt should take the nation into confidence or else the public opinion is unlikely to be in favour of the Govt.There is the possibility of the Left being proved right S.Ramaswamy
