RE:India is morally bound not to test.
by Lalatendu Deo on Aug 06, 2007 11:19 PM

Whatever Indira said here were hypothetical. Here are soem posers. First of all, whether we are testing any device any more? And if we are, then whether the treaty can stop that? Could NSG and IAEA stop our first one or the second one and can it do in our third phase, if we wish to? And whether Pakistan's test of a purchased device is at all important for our scintific community? Yes, it may be for our strategy to a small extent.

And whether the strategic interest of US or China in Pakistan has any thing to do with our huge energy requirement in the forseeable future?

The point is plain and simple. We need to boost energy production and nuclear one will part fulfil it. We shall have to look out for other sources and those are not readily available.The agreement reached with US is fairly acceptable with several strings attached. This is understandable. We were not forced sell our house to get it.

I think I have made it clear as to what I understand from all these. Any comments please.
