Even if the bribe scandal were true, they had to do this for the sake of the country. I applaud them. Advani is saying he will renegotiate. Is he a fool?. If you had observed yesterdays proceedings in the parliament, he (Advani) says he is not against Nuclear deal. He is saying he is against inflation. This fellow, Advani, what would he have done, if he were the PM in the raised inflation. Do we not know the level of his economic intelligence? What does he know about economy? The same fools objected when Rajiv Gandhi brought the initiative of augmenting IT's utilization in india. Where would India be now if there is no software revolution ? Today you see an average person, he says he is an IT engineer earning this and that.
I would appreciate the hypothetical / real references brought in to the house by Rahul in his speecch.
In short the opposition is crude in its approach, whereas the UPA is determined as to where the country should be heading to.
The BJP (NDA) wants the election now, beccause the inflation is high, they ccan decceive the voters in the pretext of inflation. These fools have nothing to say or propose anything as to how they would control the inflation.
In fact, P. Chidambaram would even give up his portfoilo for Avani, if he can reduce it in a way better than Manmohan, and Chidambaram does.

I know Advani is expert at demolition, Rath Yatra, eleven and seven speech in pakistan (about Jinna), Mass murder (still escaping any kind of legal action - of course this is intelligent, etc,),lost secular credentials, but INDIAN ECONOMY AND ADMINISTRATION.
There is an MP in BJP who does not know the relation between poverty and energy security. He is asking Rahul Gandhi to explain this. Now you understand the economic intelligence of BJP and NDA. - Our fate - such people are sitting in Indian Parliament

Subash:
Perhaps YOU explain the relation between poverty (which for some inexplicable reason still exists despite Congress having attempted 6 or 7 attempts at "Garibi Hatao" to win votes..:-) and energy security?...
Maybe there is a link between nuclear power and sending more tourists to Alaska as well... ??... :-)
Go figure how a below poverty line roadside dweller who lifts loads by the daytime to buy two breads for his family in the oil-lamp lit shanty will suddenly become rich because Rahul Gandhi spoke something in the parliament... :-) :-)

The BJP might have opposed certain reforms in the past. But the good thing about the party is they learn from their mistakes. Don't forget that they were the one's who kicked off privatisation and liberalisation big way.
As for Advani's comments on nuclear deal, I think there's nothing wrong in what he has said. There is no doubt we want nuclear energy to secure our future energy requirements. The question is at what cost? Don't forget, the IAEA inspections on our facilities shall be in perpetuity, the fuel supply may not be...there is enough ambiguity, as pointed out by the experts in the text of the agreement, to prove this point.
What if the IAEA inspectors tomorrow want to inspect BARC? Would you want to allow it? There are legitimate concerns that need to be addressed. The government has a bare simple majority on the issue. That they dare to go ahead with it without evolving a broad national consensus is audacious and dangerous. I am afraid the national faultlines may become more wider due to this....!

Well my dear, its a game of politics! What if NDA were in power and inflation had risen this high? You think the UPA or the parties constituting UPA today would have kept quiet? They would have similarly charged the government with mishandling the situation. But the fact of the situation is, they indeed have mishandled in certain areas of managing food stocks the direct fallout of which is today's food inflation, though much lower as compared to international prices.
As for Advani's economic sense, I don't think he needs that. He can leave it to the likes of Jaswant Singh and Arun Shourie, two people from the NDA cabinet who carried out reforms. What Advani needs as a PM hopeful is a broad vision for the country. Vajpayee was not a trained economist but he had the vision - as famously put by the former NSA Brajesh Mishra - to be the only other person after Sher Shah Suri to envision a grand plan for road construction. The Golden Quadrilateral is perhaps the most ambitious infra project just like the Grand Trunk Road must have been when it was built by Sher Shah Suri.
What has the Congress led UPA done to the GQ? The construction work on the project was so abysmally low that it had almost halted. Now with the inflation and high cement prices, whom would you blame for escalating project costs? the NDA? OK. Blame it on the Left. But the govt's flagship rozgar schemes have attained notoriety for high corruption involved in them...
