Manmohan got N-deal at cost of common man: BJP

New Delhi, October 9:: Responding on predictable lines to President George W Bush's assent to the bill on Indo-US nuclear deal, the BJP and Left parties on Thursday said that history will prove that the accord was a "defeat" for India with Washington remaining "silent" on nuclear testing. But the Congress hailed the   ....Read more

Todays NeedBy: Bhartiya Nagrik | Thursday , 9 Oct '08 17:14:02 PM Reply | Forward Civil Nuclear Energy and technology is a need of today and tomorrow for India, its good that today we are out of the nuclear isolation, as of future nobody knows what's going to happen, so while the sun shines make hay. Morover its not just USA, India can now deal with any country so what's there to be afraid of. As far as cost is concerned, buying new technology is going to be costly, wherever you buy from.
Nuclear dealBy: Kiran Emani | Thursday , 9 Oct '08 16:57:12 PM Reply | Forward Once NSG signed the agreement, we got an OK from France, now the US and possibly Russia. What we gain is getting Uranium supply for power generation - power that many of our states desperately lack for development. Even if 10-15% of our energy supply comes from nuclear - that would be a welcome addition. Suburbs near major cities like Mumbai, Delhi face hours of power cuts stopping industry. Even if Nuclear energy is higher cost and can provide to these companies who are willing to pay for (any) power to keep the lights on in the industry it would be of great help
US-India 123 AgreementBy: V.Muthuswami, PhD | Thursday , 9 Oct '08 16:38:54 PM Reply | Forward India-US 123 Agreement is truly a landmark win=win deal for both the countries; it should help India in its efforts to tackle energy needs of future generation. Whether we make business dealins with US or not IS STILL our choice; but the important aspect is our freedom to deal with other nuclear states, like France, Russia, UK, etc. Opposition stand of BJB is totally idiotic; communists are local agents for China interests, sooner we pack and send them to China, better for India's long term progress. These Red bedfellows are retrograde and a curse to any Indian advacement and their aim is to keep India poor and impoverished for ever. The only saving grace is that they are not as corrupt as other politicos, but that does not make them progressive in serving this country.
India wins, when Bush signs nuclear deal By: Suren Sukhtankar | Thursday , 9 Oct '08 16:17:33 PM Reply | Forward India won. China and Pakistan, and their agents in India lost. Poor, old Advani: change your astrologer! Advani is a senile, old man.
The Historical blunder by Manmohan By: Ram | Thursday , 9 Oct '08 16:13:44 PM Reply | Forward The congress need not smart themselfs under the nuclear deal being signed and approved by a debilitated US congress passing thru one of the worst financial crisis of the century.It would be apt to say that Mr.Manmohan Singh has bailed out Mr.Bush with this multi billion deal benefitting US arms cartel.This deals would rather eclipse the bail out deal of $ 700 billion by the US govt to stave the presnt financial crisis.Manmohan Singh would go down in the history for this historic blunder and bleeding the country .
BJP an ally of China and PakistanBy: Kartar Singh | Thursday , 9 Oct '08 16:00:38 PM Reply | Forward BJP supporting the cause of China and Pakistan who were the only two countries dead opposed to India getting the Nuke deal. Has BJP become an ally of China and Pakistan???
Shut up BJPBy: G Sundar | Thursday , 9 Oct '08 15:33:10 PM Reply | Forward Hats off to Prime Minister. We want to come out of nuclear isolation to achieve greater economical feat. I don't think we can get a better deal since we are not in a position to dictate terms to America. We need this deal more than US that is the reality. Nobody can reason with communists because it bothers their motherland China. But let the BJP should atleast shut its mouth to regain some of the respect it lost in opposing this India specific deal.
indo us nuclear dealBy: Prof MS Loknath | Thursday , 9 Oct '08 14:17:09 PM Reply | Forward This is a welcome deal and India is sufficiently a mature democracy that will not sacrifice the national interests.Our PM has done well.
Thank You - Prime Minister By: Anthony Joseph | Thursday , 9 Oct '08 14:10:53 PM Reply | Forward I simply dont understand this deal, UPA hails the deal, BJP and CPI says the deal is totally a dead deal for India. Pakistan is begging US for a similar deal. Bush is happy with the deal, several parties in the US are unhappy because as per them the deal is tilted towards India's favour. China is against the deal.Now for the analysis, does this deal stop you from further testing of nuclear weapons, yes it does. Do we really want to keep testing nuclear weapons - I dont think so. At the end of it we already have proven technology in terms of developing nuclear arms and our efforts should be now on developing delivery means and methods. At the end of it a nuclear war is a no win game for any country and so its better to limit what you spend on such a technology. At the same time nuclear technology for civilian purposes can secure our energy needs and provide economic development of our country. Our PM has my vote for showing the courage to take the country forward.
