All about Nuke deal and Left party stands

The Left party started to pull off the rug from under the UPA government.According to our PM stands not to lay off the Indo-US Nuke deal and also wanted to go forward,negotiation with the IAEA(International Atomic Energy Agency).He is ready to gather the support from the many nations.But the left breached the art and science of negotiations by shutting the doors without any ventilation for keeping the talks open.First of all,Section 123 of the United States Atomic Energy act of 1954 titled "Cooperation With Other Nations", establishes an agreement for cooperation as a prerequisite for nuclear deals between the US and any other nation.This agreement is named as 123 agreement.U.S. will provide access to civilian nuclear technology and access to nuclear fuel in exchange for IAEA-safeguards on civilian Indian reactors.

Why US had chosen India for this Nuke deal?This is because India's strong non-proliferation record and stable democracy further helped justify a nuclear pact with India . This brings India closer to NPT(Non Proliferation Treaty) and IAEA have eye on its nuclear energy activities.

What is the benefit India and US gets in this deal?India is the fast growing country and has a lack of energy to accelerate and maintain the economic growth.The U.S. also expects that such a deal could spur India's economic growth and bring in $150 billion in the next decade for nuclear power plants, of which the US wants a share. It is India's stated objective to increase the production of nuclear power generation from its present capacity of 4,000 MWe to 20,000 MWe in the next decade.But India has already the self sufficient reserves of natural uranium necessary for the largest possible nuclear arsenal it may desire.

Why the left were opposing to the Nuke deal?The left party stated that the nuclear reactor plant will be insecure if the deal made.Also US so far doesn't keep up its words for instance,what happened to the assurances it made after the dissolution of the Warsaw Pact? Where are those declarations today? I will allow myself to remind this audience what was said. I would like to quote the speech of NATO General Secretary Mr Woerner in Brussels on 17 May 1990. He said at the time that: “the fact that we are ready not to place a NATO army outside of German territory gives the Soviet Union a firm security guarantee”. Where are these guarantees?.

Instead of threatening to withdraw the support,provide the rooms to negotiate or to desist from invoking the objectionable provisions of US.On the whole,The Left party should consider the nation's interest and be justify to the statements.
