Certain words/phrases have been printed in bold to
help you locate them while answering some of the
questions.
Twenty years ago, on May 11, 1998, India took a leap
into the unknown world of nuclear weapon powers with
the tests at Pokhran. Though the decision was taken
after great deliberation and with preparation, how the
reaction of the world would affect the future of India
was unknown. But today, it is certain that the action
was timely and inevitable. India has reason to be
satisfied over having accomplished many of the
objectives of Pokhran II. Indian diplomacy triumphed
in turning a grave crisis into an opportunity by securing
legitimacy for its nuclear arsenal and removing
obstacles in generating nuclear power. But the hasty
enactment of a liability law, which inhibited nuclear
trade, and the setback globally to nuclear power on
account of the Fukushima disaster stood in the way of
India benefitting fully from Pokhran II and the
subsequent agreements reached. The fact, however,
remains that the 1998 tests and the subsequent
nuclear deal have brought India to the nuclear
mainstream and opened up the global nuclear market
for development of nuclear power without signing the
Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons
(NPT) or the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test Ban Treaty
(CTBT).
The tests shocked the world, particularly because they
were done with utmost secrecy and the India-U.S. ties
hit rock bottom. For nearly two months, the U.S. refused
to have any dialogue with India and implemented the
Glenn Amendment for the first time. Newer sanctions
were imposed, and at one point it looked that relations
would never recover. The talks between U.S. Deputy
Secretary of State Strobe Talbott and Foreign Minister
15
IBPS -22024
Jaswant Singh over the next two years were the most
comprehensive dialogues India had with the U.S. on
its nuclear policy, including the threat perception and
future plans for security. India was anxious to have
the sanctions lifted, but Mr. Singh sought to delink
sanctions from the security dialogue, not to be
pressurised to take quick decisions. Mr. Talbott began
by insisting that the objective was to get India to sign
the NPT. Then he listed five benchmarks as non-
proliferation goals to normalise relations: signing the
CTBT, halting production of fissile material, strategic
restraint, strengthening export control regimes, and
normalisation of relations with Pakistan. These were
strongly rejected by India, but the talks proceeded on
the assumption that India’s security concerns should
be fully understood and that India would take certain
measures to suit its new status. But, in effect, India
met the U.S. demands more than half way, leading to
an understanding, which led to President Bill Clinton’s
visit to India and Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee’s
visit to the U.S. in 2000. India refused to sign the CTBT,
but declared a moratorium on testing; agreed to join
the Fissile Material Cut-off Treaty negotiations without
halting fissile material production; reaffirmed minimum
deterrent without giving any number of warheads; and
agreed to strengthen export controls. Additionally, India
declared no-first-use and commitment to disarmament.
Though no deal could be struck, the foundation was
laid for what became the nuclear deal in 2008.
Though India placed its civilian nuclear facilities under
perpetual safeguards, its nuclear assets remained fully
insulated against external scrutiny and interference.
India secured rights to receive uninterrupted nuclear
fuel supplies as a trade-off against safeguards. It kept
open its right to acquire advance enrichment and
reprocessing technologies, although it would require
bilateral negotiations with the U.S. and others. India’s
sovereign right to test a nuclear device in the future
has remained intact, although the deal would be in
jeopardy in such an eventuality. Presidents George W.
Bush and Prime Minister Manmohan Singh remained
committed to the deal throughout the negotiations and
made decisive interventions at crucial moments. Apart
from the specific gains in the nuclear area, the new
India-U.S. partnership, which promised investment and
high technology, was a turning point in Indian foreign
policy. On the negative side, the deal generated mistrust
in Russia and China, which had to be dealt with in

IB S : SCO – 128-129, Top Floor, Sector- 34 A, Chandigarh. Phone: 9316068310,9316488310
future years. Ten years after signing the deal, its gains
and losses have proved much less game-changing than
it was hoped in 2008. Though not a champion of the
deal as a Senator, President Barack Obama committed
himself to the implementation of the deal as part of
his strategy to build good relations with India. But his
personal affinity to the NPT and non-proliferation made
him reluctant to interpret the 123 Agreement liberally.
The expectation was that the prospect of nuclear trade
with India would be a great attraction, but in 2009 Mr.
Obama gave clear indication to his advisers that he
would not sacrifice his non-proliferation agenda for
commercial reasons. Much has happened since then,
but the fact remains that there has been no nuclear
trade till today. India’s nuclear liability law, forced on
the government by critics of the deal, became a smoke
screen for the U.S. to not supply nuclear material to
India.
The repeated declarations about a way out of the
liability law and plans to set up American reactors in
India after Narendra Modi became Prime Minister have
not changed the lack of enthusiasm in the U.S. on
nuclear trade with India. In any case, the situation
has become more volatile after Donald Trump became
U.S. President. Another major event that has shaken
confidence in the value of nuclear power in India’s
energy mix was the Fukushima disaster. It has changed
the global nuclear power scenario beyond recognition,
though India has maintained that it is “business as
usual”. The government’s recent decision to build more
indigenous reactors points to the fact that the dream
of imported nuclear reactors dotting India has
disappeared. India’s focus has rightly shifted to solar
and other new sources of energy.
