This is a case of biased journalism especially as it came on the day of trust vote on N.Deal. US obviously has some un-resolved issues with Iran. But that does not mean they would place close relations with India at stake, especially when US companies stand to gain business worth billions after N.Deal. Iran has helped India in UN and also OIC many a time when Pakistan tried to raise issue of Kashmir. But then Iran has also voted against India on Kashmir issue once. So India need to take those steps which are in India's interest without bothering about such articles and also the domestic political compulsions of some political parties.
