As pm says opposition should not advice him on N deal and economy - since he single handedly raised the inflation to 11.3%. BJP should just declare if the treaty goes through - the first thing they will do if elected is Pokhran-III. end of discussion. Period.

BJP is not so foolish. If they do come to power before the deal is closed, they will hold up the deal, try to get better terms to take credit for a better deal, get rejected and then go back asking for the same terms. They will only conduct another test if it improves our nuclear capabilities. Not because of your whims.

Why talk of hypothetical possibilities - if BJP comes to power before the deal is closed? That's a virtual certainty. It is also a certainty that BJP is poised to sit down in the opposition benches again during the next Lok Sabha.
There was no NSG before Pokhran II. NSG was constituted by the US to contain India's nuclear march forward. So from 2000, we could not get spares and fuel even from our friends - Russia and France, because of NSG restrictions.
So if BJP to prove that is macho conducts another test, it will herald the death bell of our nuclear industry.
Besides BJP talks and rarely acts. In the opposition, senile Advani talked of "hot pursuit into Pakistani terrorists" As Home Minister and Dy Minister of the NDA tenure of 6 years, he not once put this claim into action. So any talk of another nuclear test is for consumption of their kickerwallah cadres

Dear All Right, Looking at BJP's pathetic eagerness to make 82 years old budhuvoo as PM, do not be surprised if their whole leadership goes on bended knees to Mayawati,Jayalalitha,Prakash Karat, Karunanidhi, Mulayam Singh,Sharad Pawar,Laloo Yadav etc., etc., etc. to beg for PM's post and looking at such two stints by Jaswant Singh last year and last week, you can imagine the rebuffs they are likely to get.

Its better to see the repurcusion of Hyde 123 act now then 15 years later, when part of the economy depends on this power. It would be completely impossible to do Pokhran III when it is most needed - since there would be 1000s of job depending on this new infrastructure. So if PM says that there is no adverse effect of our doing the Tests, then let his statement be tested now - and avoid being a handicapt later on. And that is national interest. This govt behaves like there is no tomorrow. First they did not have courage to do a test after 1974, and critisized the BJP govt for doing Pokhran II. And now wants to behave like there is no torrow? why they object to debate on this deal in parlament? Is it democracy ? BJP would and must do the test now. Its not a whim - its national interest for the future.

mungerilal, Advani might be the PM in position, real doer will be the CM of Gujarat, and do you have any doubts as to what he will and can do?
