The civilian nuclear deal is a pretext by the United States to make India its "outpost" in the region to check the growth of China, CPI general secretary A B Bardhan said today.
At a function to commemorate the 80th birth anniversary of legendary revolutionary Che Guevara here, the CPI leader alleged the US was adopting various means to draw the country into the controversial deal.
"The US is adopting various means to draw the country into a strategic partnership. They have a purpose, an aim. It wants India to act as its outpost in the region to counter balance China," he said.
