Apparently referring to the concerns of Left allies, Singh told the AICC session that there are ‘doubts and misgivings in many minds’ about the agreement.
"I would like to say that the propaganda that is being made that this nuclear deal will any way hurt our strategic programme is totally false," he said deviating from the text of his prepared speech.
"I have stated repeatedly on several occasions that this agreement concerns only civilian side of nuclear energy and that it will have no bearing on the strategic and security programme, which will remain intact without any international interference," Singh said.
He said the ‘propaganda’ that it would affect ‘our sense of judgement and independence of our foreign policy is equally false’.
