(1 votes, average: 5 out of 5)With the Indo-US nuclear deal on the verge of complete collapse, the United States has offered to replace the pact with a deal that is more likely to get passed no matter which Indian political party is at the Centre. In an unprecedented move, the United States has offered to share never-before-shared information and technical know-how on the best and most effective way to produce gobar gas. A deal like this has never been struck with any country and is already expected to ruffle a few feathers of the Pakistan-US lobby. In addition, the Democrats are already calling this a cheap publicity stunt to distract people from the horrors of Iraq.
“I don’t care what anyone else says, a deal like this would secure India’s energy needs for the next century,” said Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh at a press conference this morning, “technology like this needs to be shared between countries since it is the most progressive form of energy regeneration.” Singh is confident that a deal of this nature would break through all the problems the nuclear deal faced both on the social and well as political level. “India is the largest producer of gobar gas in the world with roughly 60% of the population indulging in it, with this partnership, we will enforce our superiority on ourselves,” Singh added.
Under the new agreement, the United States will ship two dozen cows every month for the next decade. While this move is bound to anger fast food chains, the President remains adamant. “It is up to us to help our fellow brothers with cows,” he said, “we are working today for our children to have it easy tomorrow.” The first shipment of cows is to arrive early next week. The Indian government is expecting to organise a lavish welcoming ceremony that would involve the cows being garlanded worshipped. Post the press conference, the cows would be fed and immediately put to work. “Soon, India will not have to rely on anyone else’s gas but their own and that is an accomplishment to be proud of in 60 years,” the Prime Minister said.
