No scope for change in liability regime, India will tell Obama
On the eve of Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's scheduled meeting with U.S. President Barack Obama on the sidelines of the Asean summit in Bali, Indian officials said they did not know whether the newly notified rules for implementing the Nuclear Liability Act would address American concerns about nuclear suppliers being exposed to claims for damages in the event of an accident but insisted that the “law of the land” could not be diluted. With the subject likely to come up at Dr. Singh's meeting with Mr. Obama on Friday, the officials said neither the liability Act nor its implementation rules were an “obstacle” in the way of foreign nuclear companies wishing to do business in India. On issues likely to figure in the interaction between Dr. Singh and Mr. Obama, the officials said progress on bilateral issues since the U.S. President's visit to India would be ‘paramount.' “The relationship between India and the U.S. is evolving and would keep evolving in tune with the dynamics of the changing ground situation.” On the latest report of the International Atomic Energy Agency on the Iranian nuclear programme, the officials said several drafts on the position to be adopted were in circulation and India was confident that a draft acceptable to all the sides would be worked out in a couple of days.
