“You don’t eat something just because it is served to you”

New Delhi: Atomic Energy Commission Chairman Anil Kakodkar on Thursday appeared to suggest that India would walk out of the nuclear deal with the United States if it went against its (India’s) interest.

“If it is going to cause harm to our health, what [should] we do? You don’t eat something just because it is served to you,” he told NDTV.

“What is the other alternative,” Mr. Kakodkar countered when asked whether the deal would be kept aside if it is in a form which is unacceptable to India.

“Let us finish the cooking process [of the nuclear deal], taste it, then see whether it is good or bad,” he said.

Asked what India would do in case the cooked meal is not appetising, Mr. Kakodkar said, “then we don’t eat it. If it is appetising we will eat it.”
