India on Tuesday said it was the “duty” of the US to convince the Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG) under the civil nuclear deal to provide it with nuclear fuel and light water reactors and ensure “clean, unconditional exemptions” for trade in the atomic field with New Delhi.

India is also engaged with the 45-nation grouping to persuade it to change rules and allow the international community to have nuclear commerce with it, Atomic Energy Commission Chairman Anil Kakodkar said. “No post and pre-conditions should be laid and there is a need for clean, unconditional exemptions from NSG guidelines on the import of nuclear reactors,” he told reporters.
