Section-123 of the United States Atomic Energy Act of 1954-establishes an agreement for co-operation as a pre-requisite for nuclear deals between the US and any other nation. We ,the common people of India do not know the pros and cons of this deal.Govt should disclose the facts and figures which are hidden in the agreement and benefits that we derive from the agreement and its consequences.Govt should ensure that the agreement will not prevent India`s future ability to develop and pursue Nuclear Technologies for the benefit of the Nation. This deal aims to give India access to US Nuclear fuel and equipment for the first time in three decades.We should not sacrifice our National interest at the cost of other nation. The deal should be discussed in the parliament and evolve a consensus which is needed for our developmental activities and progress and prosperity of the Nation.

Dear Sir, We must thank Left,who has opposed this deal out rightly.Please do't misunderstand,it is the only party in INDIA,where inner party democracy exist.What it means that the leadership has gone through threadbare.It is not CONGRESS where 'FATHWAS' are issued to Dr.Singh to do or leave. In the present conditions the opposition of Left is being admired through out.

It is the UPA policy of covert and hidden drafting of the deal which is causing the bottleneck. They have only themselves to blame.
