If we need cash, we go to bank and bank imposes conditions. If we want nuclear power we need to go to USA and it's natural that USA impose conditions. If we do nuclear test then USA would take away the technologies that it had given us, but it would not take away any thing that were our own. If USA did take away the technologies then we can always go ahead with the knowledge gained from the association with American technologies and build our own capabilities indigenously.As it is if we do not sign the pact then we have to do with present indigenous technology and if we do sign the pact then we have access to modern technologies. It's a win-win situation for India. Then, why the Left & Right are crying foul? Is it all about politics of vote ?
