US and India in tug of war over N-deal

Navtej Kohli — Wed, 10 Sep 2008 10:56:59 +0000

Navtej Kohli reviewed many political incidents, economical changes and threats related to N-deal . Yet its be true that nuclear weapons dangerous for human race and we have to abolish to make and use nuclear weapons but on the other hand use of nuclear in the power is the best one option for upcoming power needs challenges . Navtej Kohli had noticed not only Indian government have to faced to proof its majority but also US president had puzzled by the comments and questionnaires made by congress persons.

Why only two nation head either its be Indian Prime Minister ManMohan Singh and other hand US president looking serious to take this issue and many person blaming that such kind of policies are threats for national securities. Even in India Manmohan Singh government had to face show confidence on the floor while left and some other parties had left National Congress led UPA .

But while considering US , George government also have to face many controversies to take over that issue and many major politicians had negatively marked their concerns over that issue . Many person had also told that US will not give any support to India like technology and other raw material for its Nuclear vision either deal would be signed or not . In India there are also many threats came like many person had told India have to show all its nuclear weapons and resources and work under US Government .

Indian and its politicians concerns are very right. Because after Independence while Indian were living in the paucity of food and cloths and India was fighting against hunger , China and Pakistan attacked and capture India land . Where were the UN and other countries which are claiming that India Nuclear power will be harmful for the world? Moreover question is not that other countries opposition, question arises when there are inner disputes over that issue so how can we place over view rest of the world.
Like when we look the inner politics of the US at this time, while taking words “full court press” as a slogan US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice when met with the most powerful personalities who is Speaker of the House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi, to discus various issue and condition when US had singed on N-deal.

According to a media report quoting Pelosi spokesman Nadeam Elshami, spokesperson for Pelosi maintained that the discussion revolved around the process for considering the accord once it has been submitted. “The Speaker looks forward to reviewing the submission in detail and consulting with Chairman Berman and members of the leadership in determining the appropriate course of action,” Elshami said.

While the Speaker Pelosi had already broke away from a press conference on energy with top leaders of his party and she was going for a meeting with Secretary of State on India which shows that how much that deal is important and urgent for everybody .

Pelosi said before leaving the briefing, according to a transcript “I have to excuse myself as I have to meet secretary of state — I think the subject is India. I’m not sure and I have to excuse myself — but I’m sure my colleagues here will be pleased to answer any questions”

Before that Rice had a meeting with Chairman of House foreign affairs Committee , Howard Berman which was passed off as a “private meeting” by top Congressional aides.
But many experts are in believe that Rice will be discussed any issue and possibilities for wining congress approval for nuclear deal on date September 26, 2008 , in 110th congress .

According to Indian major News Channel NDTV India

Lawmakers have been talking of a Lame Duck session after the November 4 elections, but nothing has been firmed up on the matter partly because many powerful Democrats are against the idea and would like to start with legislation afresh in the 111th Congress.

The State Department Spokesman Sean McCormack maintained that the administration is going to make a “full court press” - a basketball phrase that has to do with attacking the ball before it gets into court - efforts with Congress and that the Secretary of State had spoken with a number of law makers including Chairman Berman and Democratic Vice Presidential nominee Senator Joseph Biden.

“We think there is a possibility of getting this passed this year and we are going to do everything we possibly can,” said McCormack.

“Whether it does or not, it’s not going to be because of lack of efforts” he said stressing the Secretary of State had instructed aides to have the paperwork ready for the Hyde Package in 24 hours to 48 hours.

Nano Dreams Turns Fade

Navtej Kohli — Mon, 25 Aug 2008 07:52:04 +0000

Navtej Kohli liitle bit disappointed after knowing the many obstacle in the way of making the Indians Middle class dream car Nano Which makes Ratan Tata to take hard decision to stop its production unit Singpur . Navtej Kohli said yet Ratan Tata decision was sound enough according to current situation. But matter is Tata dreams “World Cheapest car became reality of not “.
Tata motors cars had launched its world cheapest car on date 10-jan-2008 at Pargati Madan in Auto Expo 2008 . Tata feels very Proud during its launching and told that he had kept his promise what they did with Indians 5 years ago . Most of news paper then published many review and also told that its be “People Car “ or even “Lakhtakia “ . Yet many controversies and comment had started regarding parking and pollution and safety majors.
Tata group chairman not only surprised but also disappoints many Indian who not only associated with the production of Nano car but also millions Indians who are awaiting Nano car a year. TATA Motors chairman Ratan Tata had announced on date 22-Aug-2008 to pull out his company most valuable and 2,000 crore project even when Tata had already spent 1500 crore over this project . Ratan Tata had said the main reason behind this hard step are as “constant violence” and “disruption”, which he said pose a threat to workers and equipment at the project site.
Ratan Tata told to media during this announcement while he was in Tata Tea annual general meeting (AGM) “If any part of the state feels we are exploiting them—first of all, it is totally untrue—we will exit,” also Tata said “If anybody is under the impression that because we have made this large investment of Rs 1,500 crore… we would not move, we say, no. We would move at whatever the cost to protect our people. I can’t bring our managers and their families to West Bengal if they are going to be beaten and there is going to be violence constantly,” .
While West Bengal chief minister Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee said that his govement continues talking with Mamta Benerjee over that matter and we are assuring Tata motors to provide hassle free environment for making one lakh car dream became true and also said that, “The state’s people want this important project.”
Now the talks over that matter had started like , “Will Nano miss the deadline “ and how Tata now survive in Indian market while the investor perspective on lurch . Moreover Bengal is famous for Bandh culture and violence , it is now clear that Tata will not complete his task in October and miss the deadlines .
While Trinamul Congress-sponsored indefinite agitation is concerns , construction work closed or even suspended because of threat of a section of supporters of Singur Krishi Jomi Raksha Committee (SKJRC). Although many labors threaten by SKJRC supporters but no complain had been registered while Trinamul Congress chief Miss Mamata Banerjee said they would not create any law and order trouble at Singur during the agitation, officials of private companies undertaking construction work at the project site are worried as they feel that labourers and engineers would be obstructed to enter the project site from tomorrow by the agitating farmers.
On the other side farmers who are involved in the agitation told they would not disturbing any labors working on the site .

Mr Manik Das, a senior SKJRC leader, said. “We want Tatas to stay at Singur. But we demand the return of our 400 acres of land that has been acquired forcefully,” Mamata Banerjee, who is spearheading the agitation against the Tata project, appears determined to go down in history as a second Subodh Banerjee, whose espousal of the tactics of “gherao” did so much harm to the state’s economic prospects, and deprived a whole generation of Bengalis of jobs that would otherwise have come their way. While we are looking into the past Tata had also walked out of Bangalore Airport proposal due to politics involved in it. Now over the issue of 400 acres land whose owner refuse to take any compensation offered by State government .
The underlying politics is the good showing of the Trinamool Congress in the recent panchayat elections (the local government at Singur is under its control). The political stock of the ruling Left Front is low, the anti-Left vote in the state is gravitating towards the Trinamool Congress, and Ms Banerjee sees the Singur issue as a springboard for launching her bid for power during the next assembly elections. She has been helped by the severe setback suffered by the Left Front in Nandigram in the state over the same issue of acquiring farming land for industrialisation, and the mood all over the country has tilted in favour of farmers and especially tribals, who stand to lose their habitat and livelihood as a result of an industrialisation process from which they gain little.
Left had considering various solution regarding to sort out this problem like , offering alternative land to the farmers which it was unwilling to do earlier .
Orissa, Maharashtra, Haryana and Andhra Pradesh have started wooing Tata Motors even as West Bengal scurries to keep the Nano in its backyard.

Many other invites after this Tata announcement offering best land with good environment which make , Tata Nano dream became true .Like the Himachal Pradesh government invites Tata to set up their plan here and enjoys special category status. Chief minister Prem Kumar Dhumal told while welcoming to Tata “HP has a big reservoir of excellent management power, skilled manpower, uninterrupted power supply and peaceful atmosphere which is necessary for setting up of industrial units. “
After Uttarakhand, Himachal, Maharashtra, Punjab Rajasthan also gives warm welcome to Tata to setup its project here , Chief minister Vasundhara Raje told to media person “Rajasthan is willing to roll out the red carpet for Tatas to set up the Nano car plant in Rajasthan and that her government would provide all required support to facilitate building of the plant. “ The upcoming Honda car facility in Bhiwadi in the state, where the casts are to roll out starting next year, stands testimony to the investor-friendly climate of the state,
On the other hand Punjab Government had decide to invite Ratan Tata to setup its Nano plant in Punjab. Punjab Industry Minister Manoranjan Kalia told to media “I will soon write an offer letter to Tata to formally invite the group to install the small car’s plant in Punjab, for which every possible facility will be provided by the state government,” He also told that he had invited a group of Tata delegates to discuss all the plans .
Some news sources told that Nano new home will be in Pantnagar, Uttaranchal . While Tata had already factory having capability to make two lack unit capacity at the Pantnagar plant for its vehicle Ace, which is not very different from the Nano.
Pankaj Pandey, head of research, ICICI Direct told to media that “Tata Motors can produce from Pantnagar up to a capacity of 30,000-35,000 Nanos,”. “In case Singur fails, the roll-out is expected from that plant; its capacity could be ramped up later on.”
Moreover , Indian middle class dream Car project like to be fade and still have little chance Tata makes new strategy to fulfill Indians needs because Singpur plant had capacity to built 2,50,000 cars in a year which was be increased up to 3,00,000 lakh cars in a year . Will Tata make a new production which can be assure to deliver 1 Lakh cost car . While the cost of Steel , coal had just fourth time till the announcement of the Tata Nano . Moreover many other companies which are also make their plant in Sinpur and having contract with Tata Nano to supply spare parts , having in worse position.
We still want to Tata to make its dream and promise to be true.

N-Deal : Indo-US deal Reality

Navtej Kohli — Mon, 18 Aug 2008 09:51:12 +0000

Navtej Kohli had noticed many famous world news paper found a good one news which they are publishing like famous TV serial episode and debate over this matter but no one know what be real mean of this deal and what be real opinion of those who really make this deal .According to Navtej Kohli there are two sides exist in this deal one side N-deal and other side India even US senator and other major countries watch out for India move with hope that India figure out actual Performa with changes .
But whatever the deal and whatever world politics over this matter, yet Indian politics had seen many changed after this deal induction. Left parties, part of United Progressive Alliance (UPA) government, opposing this deal and also withdrew their support and also moved out from the government and also opposition alliance NDA tearing the deal as “unequal.” .
Left and both NDA alliance which is led by BJP then came into same views when they are opposing that deal and publicly states “while the country would have no assurance of uninterrupted fuel supplies for its civilian nuclear reactors.” While we are taking Hyde Act under consideration which provides legal basis for a 123 agreement , but also having tow faces . Both in turn give off a third dimension that is emerging in the growing US tilt toward India. The heavy lobbying — both for and against — in the US and India on the deal and the personal push of both American President George W. Bush and Indian Premier Manmohan Singh speak of a new thrust and trust between the two nations. Some changes are required before India go for deal , Indian government had cited many times in press conference .Many economist had suggest that India had to just check out his own economical and power needs and then forwarding his step .
India want clean and Green power resources since a long time. Expert had already stated that power generation of India had already below 15 to 20 percent against requirement, the gap between power supply and demand can be slow down Indian economy again. If government want to sustain economy growth above 8 percent over next quarter of century India will need to at least triple its primary energy supply and quintuple its electrical capacity. India had to revised his energy policy and make an effective environment friendly energy policy which be able to sustain Indian economy growth .
Although India had depend upon his thermal power for his needs and coal for making electricity but its be weeel known that Indian coal is very rough quality and take highly expensive infrastructure to clean and moreover using coal in huge amount is not environment friendly . Moreover Indian dependency on foreign oil and natural gas resources , inefficient electric systems and unreliable power grids reason behind irregular blackouts . Many claims had already made by government to sort out this problem by interrupted Gas supply with cheaper rate as well as future nuclear power plants . Moreover India had marked as drag-down country by many economists ,especially since the proposed hydroelectric projects have run into problems, with social and political issues preventing quick implementation..
The experts says that , the N-deal policy having big flaw is that only it forms only three percent of India’s total commercial energy mix and also not clearly define about how much cost for the India for imported fuel, equipment and technology.
Moreover India is also looking to future plan for making energy with like hydropower, wind and solar energy.The detractors also question the fact of foreign dependency. They ask, what would happen to the enormous investments in nuclear power plants and by the end-users of the anticipated power supplies from nuclear reactors if for any reason the US halts nuclear cooperation with India?
Some bad experience like Tarapore when the US halted fuel following India’s explosion of the peaceful nuclear experiment in May 1974. The TAPS-1 and 2 light water reactors (LWRs), built by General Electric of the United States and designed by Bechtel, use LEU (low-enriched Uranium) as fuel and under a 1963 agreement, US were to supply fuel for 30 years. But the US, citing the Nuclear Nonproliferation Act of 1978, denied fuel to the two units.
Experts says that India having little choices and nuclear power can fulfill India energy requirement and India-US N-deal would be ultimate solution for this and also helpful for economy . commerce, trade , development and FDI (foreign direct investment).
Some roughly estimate for this “ for next 15 year power supply India need 10 large size nuclear power plants , India have to exports technology and hardware near about 50 percent of its projects and cost of these plants around $4 billion. India had tied up with a vision of his FDI and other commercial loans . Moreover that deal beneficial for both sides. These deals also open the door for various industries and US also looking for low cost supplier. Moreover India and china also want pack up with each other with this deal.
Besides energy India will be enabling to get money for other needs like infrastructure and manufacturing and can make India new power in the world. India are also in beliefs that in future India have work force as the transfer of technology and knowledge ensues between the partners also US is looking for cheaper and skilled technologist.
Currently Indian nuclear power plants are designed and run by foreign corporation and most of experts says that technology already exists and has proven to be safe, and also a homegrown technology will trigger the need to import critical components — sending India back to the same players. But what is most amazing part of that deal is that India will have be part of trillion-dollar energy club and its full fill India household and farms needs which can changed Indian life and welcoming new power Zone, especially since India would not be stuck with a one-sided Iran-Pakistan-India gas pipeline deal. This would have held India permanently hostage to Pakistan.
But thee are some hard sides also , its the traditional national consensus on India foreign policy , many person are in lurch while deals entails and what be patriotism came .
On the other side US considering India as major political and economical on the world map and want to make his calibration in advance which be beneficial for both countries .
