In the 24x7 cable news age where political correctness and distortion of facts thrive, there's no dearth of glib-tongued self appointed spokespersons trying to earn a some name and fame in face of tragedy.

The deal is not a panacea for energy security as the government makes us believe. However it is desirable as a part of long range planning to develop alternative sources of energy in view of the finite nature of resources like coal and gas.
The left’s opposition is untenable (or stupid) because in foreign relations, there is no place for dreamy-eyed ideological considerations. A clever nation pursues a foreign policy that suits its strategic interests. The US may be no exception. But we must not forget that it was the US that bailed us out when China invaded us in 1962. It is therefore desirable to have a strategic alliance with the lone super power in view of our hostile neighbourhood.
The alliance with the US can only accelerate our progress in various scientific and technological fields and in wealth creation. No doubt nuclear commerce creates thousands of jobs in the US but will also do so in India.
The BJP’s opposition is untenable because we do not have nuclear resources in the first place and have to depend on others for supplies in the foreseeable future.

For centuries Hindu society has been active in producing intellectuals, philosophers, psychologists, scientists, political theorists, artists, poets, spiritual leaders and life scientists. Islamic invasion, Christian colonialism, destruction of Sanskrit education and Marxist influence had a disastrous influence on Hindu society. The social and psychological conditioning suffered by Hindus lead frequently to the erosion of cultural identity and the depersonalization of individuals. It is therefore, not surprising that the production of intellectuals dwindled. The repercussions of long period of Islamic oppression and colonization , in the wake of social and cultural disintegration and the trauma suffered by Hindus as a whole, persist even today. Everybody seem to agree that Hindu civilization is now facing a crisis. Entrenched forces from within and without have joined together to de-structure or destroy our thoughts , beliefs, practices and values....

For several years dogmatic Marxist ideology has developed many steps closer to its goal of "wiping the Hindu nation off the map". Marxists have joined with several dogmatic, fundamentalist ideologies and British colonialists to de-structure and dismantle Hindu society. In collaboration with our enemies, Marxists have made several attempts to destroy the "oldest surviving culture" and have made several "apocalyptic utterances" and social engineering schemes to restructure Hindu society. But Hindu society with its all inclusive, eclectic philosophy and tolerant attitudes survived and prospered. ...

Observing Pakistan’s unfolding implosion is prompting a pleasing sensation of Schadenfreude for most Indians. But it is a grave mistake to imagine that the final outcome will not be hazardous for India. Nor is it likely that Pakistan’s leaders, harbouring visceral hatred for Hindu India, will desist from harming it while they themselves self-destruct. Indeed there is a strong likelihood of temptation to aim for an apocalyptic endgame for the region should Pakistan itself truly disintegrate. Pakistani society is already deeply divided horizontally, with several regions increasingly estranged from the Federal State and vertically, with a vast constituency enraged by their own shockingly greedy and profoundly foolhardy elites. And the ubiquitous Americans will come up with another surreal plan for Pakistan, without ceding control over its armed forces and the nuclear assets they and the Chinese conspired to implant there in order to bring India to heel....
