It is believed that Rice updated Mukherjee about the civilian nuclear issue, including the latest status in Senate. Officials said the good news is that the three Senators who had placed “hold” on the nuke bill have relented, thus, paving the way for the much awaited debate in the US Senate and the voting sometime early next week.
Saran, who had to rush to New York specially for the meeting with Rice, met the Senate Majority Leader Dr William Frist, Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid, Chairman of House International Relations Committee Henry Hyde among others.
