Indo-U.S. N-Deal Soap Opera

It is surely perplexing, to no definable extent, as to why the Left Front in India would want to oppose the Indo-U.S. nuclear deal, which by all means, is a deal that will grant India a seat of honour in the international nuclear community, without infringing upon the status of her strategic nuclear programme and in the absence of India having to join the discriminatory Non-Proliferation Treaty. The fact that they don't possess valid, viable, concrete and infallible evidence to back up their vehemently irrational opposition to the agreement is self-evident. The only tangible ground for their outright denunciation of the Indo-U.S. nuclear pact is their unstinted and above-the-nation adherence to Communism and their deference in the direction of dictatorial China, which, after the inevitable dismantlement of the Soviet Union, has become the fountainhead of inspiration for Communists all over the world. Any agreement that will 'impinge' upon China's stature is anathema to Indian Communists, who will got to any length to display loyalty to their ideology and prevent India from embracing a deal very much in her favour.
