123 deal

A shaggy dog gets even shaggier. Even the Times says "By now the so-called Indo-US nuclear deal has become a shaggy dog story: a prolonged bad joke that goes on and on with no end or punchline in sight." I won't add the shaggy ending to the shaggy Times tale, but it involves China.

Cong leadership has stepped up efforts to rope in the allies - the Samajwadi Party in particular and also NCP, RJD, DMK, PMK and Lok Janshakti Party.

At this moment in time, the government appears to have consolidated support for the nuclear deal among allies, even as the Left parties continued with their threat to withdraw support to the UPA government in case it decides to proceed to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).
