The deal is good for India and US. There is no two ways about it. Cold war blinkers need to be taken off by these guys.

Hi Mahes
Interesting & happy to read your true patriotism, but getting emotional is one thing which all of us should stop. There is no gains in getting emotional.

Yes, we have(had) the best brains, but not the best technology NOW. The reason i stress on NOW is because we are in a very competitive world. If we are not able to meet our requirements, we need to have such understandings for our advantage.

By doing so, we are not stopping our scientific research, we can still parallely work on our Thorium enrichment program. The day we feel we are able to make more energy from our resources, that day automatically we stand on our own legs and that day this deal is becomes useless, which is what we want.

Our IT industry has grown so much is b'cos we were indirectly partners with US or partners with all US companies, even today if US market crashes, our IT industry would be hit by more than 70%, are those IT engineers traitors? are u ashamed of this ?

Without this Nuclear deal, we would definitely survive & grow, no doubt on that
But would we be able to grown in such a way that we would become developed nation to get rid of poverty, No
We need to use this deal in smart way.
