I clearly mentioned in one of my comments way back in September that Congress will give a slow burial to this deal. They have achieved all the political benefits out of this. Meanwhile BJP wanted only a domestic law to overcome Hyde Act in USA and otherwise they supported the deal. Still, from the beginning I was of the wiew that BJP made a mistake in joining the Commies side of the argument. BJP should have rather supported the deal and asked the UPA to go ahead even if Commies oppose the deal. That strategy would have worked politically as well as in getting support from the people.
