Let history be history. Lets talk about the deal. Why are you so sure whats reported by a newspaper is true? India havent signed the NPT. This deal is more of an acceptance of India's stand. The world powers are ready to give india a special status as a nuclear power. Why should we miss the oppurtunity? Blame the silly politics in the country for all this hungama. And as you said, lets find out whether the deal was good or bad later, if we are alive. decisions will be proved right or wrong only in due time. but decisions has to be taken.
