At the same time as Dr. Prasad has rightly pointed out, we should not consider ourselves merely as reecivers of techonolgy and stand up to fight for our rightful place. We Indians have done a commendable job in nuclear technology, the only thing was we remained isolated because of denial regimes, now India will find an honourable inclusion. The honour part of it shall not come easy unless we recognize merit and worth our scientists and engineers and fight for their getting wider acceptance. For instance, the US plan for N-fuel visualises India as a 'Recepient nation', factually untrue and a shame on part of those decision-makers, while Russian N-fuel plan considers India as a participant with equal rights and a 'provider' of technology as well. The 'insolence' of West is a glass barrier which will take years to shatter.
