VERY JUSTIFIED IN YOUR CONTENTION. NO ONE IS APPARENTLY AGAINST ALTERNATIVE NUCLEAR POWER FOR CIVIL USE BUT HOW FAR WE CAN VOUCH ON USA'S CONSISTENCY AS A FAIR PARTNER OF THE DEAL IS CERTAINLY QUESTIONABLE. IN THE ERST WHILE DAYS BY DINT OF NATO ALLIANCE FRANCE AND EVEN CANADA HAVE BEEN DISSUADED TO SUPPLY ENRICHED URANIUM TO US.Mrs GANDHI WAS HARASSED IN MANY WAYS THAN ONE IN RESPECT OF OUR PURSUIT OF ATOMIC ENERGY PROGRAMME. THE US REPUBLICAN PARTY AND THE ADMINISTRATION'S PERCEPTION AND MINDSET HAVE SEEN LITTLE DIFFERENCE IN SPITE OF FALL OF SOVIET UNION AND GRADUAL IRRELEVANCE OF NAM MOVEMENT. THE CONGRESS GOVT SHOULD HV ENGAGED IN A REGULAR DETAILED DIALOGUE WITH ALL ITS POLITICAL ALLIES AND SHOULD HV COME OUT WITH A WHITE PAPER PROVIDING THE SALIENT FEATURES OF THE DEAL FOR PUBLIC TO UNDERSTAND AT LARGE THE RAMIFICATIONS AND IMPLICATIONS SO AS TO ASSUAGE ANY FEAR OR MISGIVING IN OUR MIND THAT THE DEAL IS NOT TRANSPARENT OR DETRIMENTAL TO NATION'S INTEREST.
