Thanks to NSG's approval..

Twenty four years of long wait is over and the gate for nuclear commerce has been opened for India by lifting the embargo, which was imposed on India for testing its nuclear weapon in Pokhran in 1974. The waiver granted by Nuclear Supplier Groups will open India's nuclear commerce with International community. Whatever the saffron party raises hue against the waiver and however the Reds bark irrationally hailing it a black day, granting of nuclear waiver couldn't be denied as a historic moment for India as India is the only nuclear weapon state given access to take part in nuclear commerce, even though it is not a signatory of Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty(NPT). If this couldn't be deemed as a rare feat, what else could be called so?

It was good to see India raising above its standard and playing a good innings in the International stage in convincing some reluctant members of NSG, hence creating a major break through in our nuclear trade and now we could have nuclear trade with big players like Russia and France, apart from US. Nuclear energy is one of the cleanest form of energy, though serious steps need to be taken for its safe disposal of nuclear waste. And the waiver will grant India access to new nuclear technologies and create the way to get the cleanest form of energy. Though the contribution of nuclear energy to the the total energy generation is small, its time we shift to the nuclear energy.

Indian politicians once again prove unworthy of being a healthy opposition, there need to be discussions with open mindedness and blind opposition to any issue without giving a rational thought over the matter wont bring ant solutions. Of course, there are some serious concerns in the nuclear deal. Though millions of money is to be invested on buying reactors and other stuffs, there is no assurance of continuous supply of fuel and India has been denied the reprocessing rights of the spent nuclear fuel. There are issues that need to be addressed before finalising the deal but playing blind politics in this scientific issue and being so stereotypical only leaves bad impression of the political situation in India in the minds of the observers. Without understanding the real importance of the technologies being transferred and without visualising the real scenario in the future which demands clean energy, it is unfair to raise voice against the deal for the fear that India will lose its sovereign integrity because of its association with USA.

Now the time demands more alertness from Indian side on its foreign policies. US will try to dictate its policies on India, especially regarding Iran nuclear issue, it will seek India's support to impose sanction on the Islamic state. But it is in our hands to overcome the pressure and pursue our own foreign policy. Validity of the deal if India takes further Nuclear testing also remains a debatable issue.

With clear objectives and considering the opposition views and proper negotiations by the Indian government with their US counterpart, this deal will help us to revamp our nuclear technologies and definitely help us to pursue our path to meet our energy requirements. Still we have miles to go to achieve our energy levels but journey of thousand miles start with a single step. chale chalo India!! Hats off to NSG's approval..
