India US Nuclear Deal

I was going through the New York Times yesterday's edition and was going through the way the media there was skeptical about the concessions given to India for producing nuclear fuel.The media is saying that although India has not signed Nonpoliferation Treaty why is it being given permission to produce nuclear fuel on its own.

But,there is a catch that there has to be separate facility to reprocess nuclear fuel .One thing that is not clear is that America's law states that in case India does another nuclear test then the supply of nuclear fuel to India would be stopped but now the deal does not say anything in particular about such an eventuality.

The Indian National Security Advisor seems to be all to pleased with the deal

Out and out I feel that the United States is now recognising India in its true value.It can now see the benefits of aligning with this country which is the world's largest democracy.

Along with that India can be a strategic business partner too with such a big market and investment opportunities.So its a win win treaty for both the countries with a nuclear deal in hand India can now embark on more futuristic plans for civilian use of nuclear fuel.

God Bless the country.
