India need not be Scared of US -Rahul Gandhi


Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday said it was time India stops being scared of the agreement this against the backdrop of Left parties and BJP's opposition to the Indo-US nuclear deal.
"On the Indo-US nuclear deal, my thinking is that in India we need not be scared or lack confidence in dealing with anything or anybody," Gandhi said while talking to students at TMA Pai Institute organised by National Student Union of India (NSUI).
Gandhi said that in fact other countries have now realised the strength of India. "I speak to foreign leaders and I get the sense that have realised and recognised an united and confident India," he said.
On a campaign trail in poll-bound Karnataka, he said "a united and confident India is the course for everyone, including students, the IT industry or the manufacturing industry." Gandhi asked the student community to be the engine of advancement of the country and help to the poor.
