A look at the nuclear deal By Randeep Wadehra


Indo-US Nuclear Deal by Er. PG Sharma
Pages: 109. Price: Rs. 100’-

The Indo-US nuclear deal is now more or less a part of history unless the Obama administration decides to have a relook at it. The media in India, the United States and other parts of the world has thoroughly scrutinized various aspects of the deal and has generally come to the conclusion that it is good for the energy-starved India and hence for the world economy. There are geo-strategic issues too, but these have remained on the backburner as India has avowedly pursued this deal for reasons other than military. Sharma, a retired engineer, has dealt with various aspects of the deal in small and readable chapters. You may not agree with everything he says. However, where is the need for all those shlokas and jingoistic verbiage in what is purportedly an objective analysis?
