Kajolika, every single person in this discussion along with our hon'ble MP's deserve to be called headless chickens. Mr. Sen has clarified that he did not use "headless chicken" to describe our MPs but the journalists who are running here and there for a comment or two. He has erred in publicly airing his dissension, regarding an issue about which the parliament is debating. Being a Public Servant he should have exercised more restraint. Now let us all show more maturity. Whatever u might say about the MPs they are elected by the people , people like u and me. If they are useless, it is reflecting upon ourselves, our inefficiency to make a change our incapability to create good leaders, and our failure as a society to nurture a culture of honesty and service. Yadha Praja Thadha Raja is what I have to say. Let us have more debates rather than propaganda war. Let the parliament debate about the issue. Let us have more facts before we make judgements. And by the way please read the interview with Dr. A.N.Prasad, available in rediff.com. Someone other than the Left and BJP is also voicing his apprehensions about the N-deal. I hope unlike the politicians a scientists voice will have some credibility.

This deal is not about Congress, the Left or the BJP. This deal is not about communism or socialism or capitalism. This deal is not about personal ego or politics morons. This deal is about India's future. Her (India) ability to carry out nuclear tests and still be part of the NSG. Her (India) ability to secure her long term energy future without compromising on sovereign rights. Her (India) skill to get into a deal without compromising her future. All those moro..ns out there and equate China with evil, US as saviour and BJP as stupid opposition are grossly mistaken. This is not about china or US or any other states. It is pure and simply our ability to get into a deal in our terms. Dont blame the left, dont blame the BJP or communism or capitalism or socialism. It is purely a test for our netas and babus (the current ruling ones) to strike and get into a deal which doesn't compromise our ability to do a nuclear test as everyone might remember that we are not a signatory to CTBT and / or NPT. The deal is off if test is done and we agree to it, it tantamounts to signing the CTBT indirectly. All the 5 veto weilding nuclear countries have a one - sided law favoring them and India should become 6 with ability to test and still be part of the NSG PERIOD!.
