Abstract:
The US-India nuclear deal has been justified as an economic and
commercial imperative that would also help strengthen the nonproliferation cause. The deal, however, has huge strategic significance
and should be situated within the broader parameters of the evolving
convergence between Washington and New Delhi in the post-Cold War
era. Apart from being discriminatory and contrary to the global nonproliferation norms, it has grave consequences for the regional stability
as well.
