This article only highlights only the clauses that are in India's favour. The points that India is bound to, are not stressed. Those are important to look at too. Those are the point which the left is trying to stress on. There is a difference between the opposition between the Left and the BJP to the deal. Left's opposition is based on the clauses that are not favourable to India in the long run. One thing people do not understand that US is not giving any technology to India that is new. This technology exists and if not US, someone one else will deliver that to US now since we have become 'important'. Off course US will oppose any such deal. If the only aim of India is to get closer to US then there can be some other deal which is not binding to India! I mean why should we be bound to any US pressure for 40 years? History has shown that US cannot be trusted. So why this deal? Why take a bus which does not take us to our destination of energy security completely and also wastes lot of our time money and self respect? The current nuclear capacity is just 3% and will most optimistically increase by 10%. And for that increase, we will have to dance on American beats, all do not make sense. Lets miss the bus, the other one will be right down the corner.
