To,
Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee,
Hon'ble
Prime Minister,
Govt.
of India,
New
Delhi - 110001
Sub
: Signing
CTBT.
Respected
Sir,
We the citizens of India are looking forward
enthusiastically but
at the same time
cautiously to
the forthcoming visit to
india of President
Bill Clinton
of America. We
request you in the interest
of our country and future generations not to sign
CTBT and
tie their hands and let them
die in
the case of a
Chinese aggression because
that country has already
taken over
40,000 sq.km. of our mother land.
Respected Prime Minister Vajpayeeji, India being a sovereign country and the
largest democracy in the world
it has all the
rights to defend its
borders.
We simply cannot surrender our national
interest and national security
by signing CTBT
treaty which
will allow
India to keep
only a small
number of nuclear
weapons. After
some years a difficult situation
may arise due to
atrocities from the
neighboring countries
and then future
Indian Prime Minister may decide to arm
India with
ultra modern
nuclear weapons, but at
that time this treaty may
come in the way and
countries like America and
China will have legal and
moral rights to make preventive strikes
on our nuclear
facilities if the
Prime Minister
then decides
to make new nuclear weapons.
Respected Sir, you have devoted
your whole life
for the betterment of
the country and I hope you
will not allow foreign powers to fulfil
their aim
of destroying our country.
Your honour, you
have a clear cut logical message
to give to the American President
as the representative chosen by
the American
people in the
Congress have already
refused to allow
the President to go ahead with the signing of
this treaty.
Ask him to get it
approved by the US
Congress &
Senate first and
then only to India in
this matter.
Thanking
you,
Yours
sincerely,

To,
Mr.
Bill Clinton,
Hon'ble
President of U.S.A.

Sub
: "CTBT Treaty"
Respected
Sir,
We are thrilled and anxiously
looking forward to your forthcoming historical trip to India. We hope this visit will bring
fruitful results to the mutual benefit of our two great
democratci countries of the world. We are natural
allies because both countries
follow the same principle of democracy and human rights.
I have only one request to make to you to allow me to meet you
regarding "CTBT treaty".
As you are well aware
India is the largest democracy in the world and it is
surrounded by hostile countries like Pakistan, Afghanistan
and China. China
is the only country here which is
fast emerging as
one of the great economic powers
in the world and by the year
2050 the forecast
is that China's GNP will
supercede that of
America.
China is a communist country and it has imperialistic designs on many of its neighbors. If India is pressured into signing CTBT and allowed to
keep only a limited
number of nuclear
weapons then 20
years from now
India will
not be able to sustain
the Chinese
nuclear blackmail. In
that situation no other country will
be able to come to the rescue of India
including Russia
as it happened in
1962 war with
China when Russia
flatly rejected India's call
for help saying
China was their
socialist brother
and they could not help India
in fighting
against China and in
that crucial historical
moment your
great country played a crucial
role in giving
military aid
to India and
India was able to stop Chinese
imperialistic designs on its
land.
I am sorry to say
sir, today the
situation has totally changed and Chinese economy
has much improved
and now China has financed over 70 billion US$ to the
US treasury as
short term loan and in
a few years it is expected to
cross 150 billion US$. In
this situation even if America
were to ask
China to stop
its imperialist designs
on Inda it will be
a completely hollow
threat because China may
in turn threaten to
immediately withdraw its
100 billion US$ from US treasury
to ruin US
economy. In that
situation the American President
will have no means to restrain China
from black mail. So
Mr. President I
again request you
that in the
interest of both
of our democratic
countries please accept India as a nuclear
power as
was done in the case of France
& China.
When the history is written
you will not be blamed for such
a historical blunder
and please also do not forget that
if India gives into the Chinese threat
ultimately the final target will be your country itself. So
please do not take a decision which
will be disastrous to both
of our countries in future.
Please give India its due
in its development in all
spheres.
Honored President, you should not reject the decision
of US Congress,
the represntatives
chosen by
the American People, who
totally disagreed
with this treaty.
They must have
national interest and
logic behind this refusal. So
please consider this fact too.
I trust your honor will go
into the depth
of the matter and
see the gravity of the
situation.
We should appreciate your
concern with
nuclear proliferation in
India and Pakistan
which may
lead to a nuclear
confrontation, but to
remedy the
situation there are
other means
at the disposal of America but
if there is a
nuclear confrontation
between India
and China your
great country may not be able
to interefere and the
next target of China may be
USA.
Respected President, if
I do not get
a positive response
within two weeks I will be sending this letter to all
Members of Congress &
Senate of USA
so that they
can take appropriate
action in
the national interest
of America.
Thanking
you,
Yours
sincerely,
(P.C Lunia)
