Disappointed with BJP's Stand on N-Deal
by Parth Mehta on Jul 23, 2008 09:40 AM

I've always been a supporter of BJP but I really wanted N-deal to happen. I congratulate Dr. Singh for this great achievement. I sincerely think that this deal was important for the nation. This would end our nuclear isolation & would help us to meet our increasing energy demand in future years. We can keep politics out of it, but when scientist of Dr. Kalam's stature says that this deal is important for India, then it really means something. I still don't agree with many policies of Congress but N-deal really is a great achievement. If we see BJP, they were the one who initiated N-deal process when they were in power & simply opposed it as they didn't want UPA to take credit for it. That's why they kept saying that if they come in power, they would DO THE DEAL after renegotiating. It was never clear what they wanted to renegotiate. Most of the upper & middle class & the educated youth was always in favor of the deal. I sincerely belive that BJP would have won more hearts & trust of people if they would've supported the deal instead of opposing it. They could've asked people that they started the deal & now UPA is completing it & people would have definitely given them credit for it. As far as Left is concerned, they opposed it due to their ideology clash & didn't know exactly what they were doing. This is just my opinion though & I am sure that some people will disagree & write abusive replies on my comment but that is fine. I respect freedom of expression. Jai Hind.
