Hailing the
Indo-US nuclear deal, Brajesh Mishra, National Security Advisor during the National Democratic Alliance regime, congratulated the government on Friday over the safeguards agreement with International Atomic Energy Agency and cautioned against re-negotiating the deal.
Mishra, who held the dual positions of NSA and Principal Secretary to Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee, said the draft safeguards agreement is "very satisfactory" and
discounted the concerns raised by some quarters over
India's military nuclear programme.
"It is as good as we could have got," Mishra said during an interview on
CNBC when asked about the safeguards
agreement which was unveiled by the government on Thursday.
