Dear Uncle Sam India is a soverign country a largest democracy in the world,It has a foreign policy .India is not going to ask you for every action, Indian secular governemnt work on the direction of parliament for the greater causes of its citizen.
Did you ask India or any govt before attacks on Iraq or Afghanistan, You are killing hundreds of innocents every day do you take care of any world human rights organization.
We are a peace loving country we do not interfere in any one affairs and respect the soveirgnity of other country too.
You have no right to interfere in our foreign policy or in any matter, Gas project is much cheaper than your proposed nuclear project by doing the agreement you want to interfere in our affairs indirectly, we have planty of coal and water we can make electricity by its the safe too for humanity.
Since as a human being we also tske care about humanity.
Somehow this myth that Indians in India have that India has become a developed country and doesn't need anyone's (especially US) help needs to be squashed. We are probably a good 75 years behind US or any other western country on all imaginable scales. World diplomacy is not about standing alone but to work with like minded partners who have shared interests. What shared interests or values do we have with Iran? Its an extremist country with ambition to build a nuclear bomb. That will make it one more islamic country with the N bomb in our neighborhood. That aint in India's interest at all.
well if you can manage to get along without your american & western invented computer, internet, automobile, electronics, televsion, movies, aeroplanes, satellites, etc.....then you can be independent of external requirements and dictates.

Totally agree buggs bunney, even the democracy that we boast so much about is invented by the west. Before british, we were all living in autocratic societies ruled by kings.

Yeah the bitter truth is that our total economy is dependant on the consumption patterns of the US and European countries...say IT or Manufacturing There is nothing admirable in having a pact with Iran, After all its an Islamic country and may fall into hands of likes of Osama and then we will face the music...
