There was no threat to the Congress-led UPA Government at the Centre on Indo-US nuclear deal and some acceptable solution will be worked out addressing the Left parties concern, a senior Congress leader said.
Nuclear deal is in the interest of the country and necessary for addressing the issue of energy security, Ahmed Patel, political secretary to Congress President Sonia Gandhi, told reporters.
Patel, who was speaking after the foundation stone laying ceremony for the conversion of narrow gauge line into broad gauge between Ankleshwar-Rajpipla and Bharuch-Sami- Dahej, said there were many factors responsible for inflation soaring to 11.42 per cent and government is taking steps to contain it.
