I added the criticism section to this entry. I'm currently taking a class at the University of Washington wherein Thomas Graham Jr. is a part time instructor. I wasn't quite sure how to cite his argument from 11/16/06.

This does not contain how the nuclear fuel would be tranferred to India

[edit] Operationalization difficulties

I added a section on the opposition from Left parties and their threat to withdraw support to the government unless operationalisation of the deal is halted. Will add sources soon. Amit@Talk 15:39, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] reference check

can someone please check the following claim:

Finally, in a detailed column dated July 31st in the Wall Street Journal, Bret Stephens detailed how the Indian government has been helping Iran's military and energy sector and how former Indian officials had been sanctioned by the U.S. Department of State for assisting Iran's nuclear and rocket programs. He also noted that increasing base-load generation with Coal or nuclear would only increase India's appetite for peak-load generation systems that are generally fired with gas or oil from the Persian Gulf and Iran.

I think it should be removed unless sourced. 125.21.164.251 08:03, 15 September 2007 (UTC) (Amit)
I'm going to remove it for now until a reference is obtained Amit@Talk 06:28, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Merge from Indo-US nuclear deal

Someone had suggested a merge from the "Indo-US nuclear deal" article. I have done that (it was just a single line) and added a redirect there to this article. Amit@Talk 06:34, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

It was me. Thanks. SDas 00:23, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Blog

Campaign Against the Agreement A campaign has been started by the "Campaign for Sovereignty and Democracy". They have set up a websitewww.strugglesonline.org[24] for this purpose which is claimed to be a place for critical examination of the deal. The articles contained in it by and large expose the dangers with in the Agreement.


this looks trivial, there are many blogs which are doing the same, should there be a section for this ? Isnt it automatic that an issue of national importance will be picked up by many bloggers and open forums ? I already reverted an attempt to advertise the same website once.

I agree; this shouldn't be there int the article. Amit@Talk 09:40, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
Removed it Amit@Talk 09:44, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] 15th March

There is a crucial meeting coming up on 15th march, where I guess the stance of the left parties will be officially clear on 123 deal. Jeroje (talk) 00:38, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

No major break throughs were achieved in the meeting,(unfortunately) == Hotsshot (talk) 14:12, 12 April 2008 (UTC) ==


[edit] Link added

Hi. I just added a link I found recently covering the latest view on the United States-India Peaceful Atomic Energy Cooperation Act. They're video interviews taken by students during the Non-Nuclear-Proliferation Treaty PrepCom 2008 (ended yesterday - Fri-09 May). Jossejonathan (talk) 08:32, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
