In a strong rebuttal of the Left parties criticism on the Indo-US nuclear deal, Congress President Sonia Gandhi today said there was no question of compromising on the country's security interest, nuclear programme and foreign policy.
Apparently referring to the Left parties' allegation that the government was going against the country's interests, Gandhi said without naming any party that "We do not not need any certificate from anybody else, from any party on our interests or our patriotism."
Strongly backing the prime minister, she said the country needs access to latest nuclear technology and fuel from other countries and asked how they could be faulted for trying to provide this to people.
