Samajwadi Party to vote for N-deal; claims support of all 39 MPs


Tuesday, Jul 8

    NEW DELHI - The Samajwadi Party today said it will support the
United Progressive Alliance government on Indo-U.S. civilian nuclear
deal.


    The party's comments come close on the heels of Left parties'
announcement that they have decided to withdraw support to the
government on the deal issue.


    "We met today to discuss the current political situation and the
nuclear deal," Samajwadi Party chief Mulayam Singh told reporters.


    "I have convinced my (Lok Sabha) members on the India-US nuclear
deal," he said, claiming that all the 39 party lawmakers would back the
government if it seeks a trust vote in Parliament.


    The Samajwadi Party's announcement comes amid reports that some of
the party's Muslim members of Parliament were opposed to the nuclear deal.


    Singh, however, said, "The nuclear deal has been welcomed by
Muslims across the state, including in Deoband, Saharanpur, Varanasi, Kanpur and
Bareilly."


    General Secretary Amar Singh said the party will issue a whip
asking all its MPs to vote in support of the nuclear deal.
