PM to cancel nuke deal debate as opp draws cold shoulder

RELATED NEWS

The winter session Parliament which began this morning saw both houses adjourned after obituary references. The big debate in the coming days will be the Indo-Us Nuclear Deal , but the UPA is trying its best to avoid any debate at all, reports CNBC-TV18.

Prime Minister Manmohan Singh made a last-ditch attempt last night to get some support from the opposition. In a meeting with the BJP'S Atal Bihari Vajpayee and L K Advani, PM said that since there was no visible change in the stated positions of all the parties concerned, a debate on the deal would not serve any purpose.

This demand has not been accepted by the BJP yet, as it has already given notices for a debate. Opposition leader LK Advani is believed to have told the PM that the BJP had strong reservations against certain clauses of the Hyde Act . He reiterated that in its present form, the deal would not be supported by the BJP.
