INdo- US 123 Bilateral Agreement*********

The past two weeks have been filled with mixed views on the 123 bilateral agreement between india and US. on one hand we have the government fully backing this agreement and even calling it the next big step in joining the big league. Even our PM. Mr. mammohan singh, the so called rubber stamp, has stoop his ground family, putting his foot down on this deal. on the other hand, the left parties are going all out in making it sure, that the agreement is not made operational.
what the leftists have failed to understand is that the coming millennia will be all about eNergy. already the resourses are falling short than the needs. and this concept of utilization of Nuclear energy cant be refuted by anyone. THE fact is that india needs the help of west and the so called superpowers to get the required nuclear fuel. and what this agreement has done is to make india move in the direction of self sufficiency in eNergy.
The left's arguements that we are selling at the hands of US is hard to concieve. THe comman man may agree with their views only becoz of bush's world hated image. but the fact is that the deal is most profitable for india only. this deal will mark a new beginning in the relations of US and india post the cold war era.

US is beginning to see india as the potential strategic partner and economic ally. the left has to look beyond their views against white imperialism practiced by US. they hAve to understand that communism alone cant take india forward. THe dynamics of whole world have changed. and india has to be flexible while dealing with such axis of powers. the most symbolic power of communism china has shown the path. it itself opened his economy to the world and now is ready for disinvestment.

The deal surely will help india in building its resoures for civilian Nuclear needs and also protect its military facilities of india. the only glitch in this deal was that the PR done by government could have been better.

i m sure no sensible person would disagree that this is the best possible Nuclear deal that any US government will be able to offer us. never before have, we seen such a political will by any US government to deal in such a positive manner with india. and the political bigwigs will surely not like to miss this Nuclear bus, because this will be a missed opportunity.
