Defeat Congress's agenda against India
by Chakravarthy Muralidhar on Aug 13, 2007 10:30 AM   Permalink | Hide replies

The 123 Deal with US has finally become the personal agenda of the Congress party, a.k.a Sonia Gandhi, front-ended by MM Singh! At every turn, from the time of entering into discussions to the drafting of the final draft, MMS has played umpteen tricks on the parliament and the nation. He promised "a thorough discussion in both the Houses" in due course after sgning the July 18,2006, Agreement with Bush to engage in nuke cooperation talks with US. During the series of discussions, the Americans blew hot and cold against the Indians, exposing their mal-intent and lack of character. Despite these the talks went on, as MMS had conveyed his resolve to do the Deal 'at all cost'. Now the whole country knows that the Deal is full of glaring flaws, with all commitment from India to allow "halting, capping, rolling back and finally dismantling" the strategic elements of its nuke programme. Most people may not understand, but that is the essence of the 123 Deal. One may ask, how is it so?The answer is: After signing, India cannot add to its strategic (read military and frontier nuke research) nuke programme beyond what it has now.All new reactors (conventional, FB, et al) and reprocessing facilities must come under IAEA purview or direct US surveillance.The current strategic programme cannot be viable in the long run unless it is expanded, intensified and enhanced constantly.This means that advanced nuke research will slowly die out.India will soon lose its leadership in nuke tech.

Yes, it is against India.

Difference is there in some commentators are writing here that when BJP says it is acceptable; when the Left says, it is for China.
