UPA is hurrying just to divert peoples' attention from real problems of the country. Even if this deal is passed by IAEA, it may not get passed in US due to forthcoming elections and will go to the next President. So it is worth discussing in detail as anyway it will hv to b passed by the next President, who will also sign it as it is very lucrative for the US business.
US does not bother about carbon dioxide emmisions. It only wants business. It is the only developed country, which refused to sign the Kyoto agreement on this issue.
