New Delhi, July 31 - India Friday said the G-8 resolution restricting the transfer of enrichment and reprocessing (ENR) technology to countries outside the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty fold was 'not a legally binding document' and hoped individual nations would implement civil nuclear pacts with India on a bilateral basis.
It was a 'political statement and not a legally binding document', External Affairs Minister S.M. Krishna Friday told the Rajya Sabha while responding to concerns over the recent G-8 resolution in the L'Aquila summit that seeks to curb transfer of ENR technology to non-NPT countries.
Krishna underlined that New Delhi will go by clean India-specific waiver granted by the 45-nation Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG) in September last year. He also told parliament that the NSG has not taken any decision on the ENR issue.
