The beneficiary of the much publicised Indo-US nuclear deal is definitely USA in terms of orders for nuclear business worth billions of dollars India is handing over to US. What India gained is its freedom for sometime to buy nuclear-related equipments and nuclear fuel from other countries as well. At the same time, India got into a loop from which it will be difficult to come out without accepting the terms and conditions (some open & some hidden) of the nuclear deal. Some of them are: Signing CTBT, NPT, End user monitoring agreement and accepting to curtail emission of Green House Gases, etc etc. Yes Boss! Yes Obama.
Is the Nuclear deal is really worth India loosing its stand on all these issues which the country fought for decades? It looks India only provided business to global nuclear industry which was without much business for the last two to three decades.
