Russia suspects that India has allowed U.S. Navy representatives to inspect a Russian-built nuclear submarine called 'Chakra', which India is leasing from Moscow, the daily writes. If confirmed, it would violate the terms of the lease. The incident could also seriously complicate future negotiations on military-technical cooperation between the two countries.

Indian authorities have allowed US naval representatives to visit a nuclear submarine leased by New Delhi from Russia, in violation of the terms of the lease, the Kommersant newspaper reported.

This has strong implications for all current and future acquisitions from Russia including S-400 and SU30's and even Brahmos so that india may get some cookies from uncle sam in return. There is no such thing as loyalty and honesty in the conduct of indian statecraft. World should realise this fundamental breach of mutual trust because I see IAF Rafales getting into the hands of Russians for exchange of some tech.
 
The submarine "Chakra" was hit in early October, which led to the emergence of a gap of about a meter and a half in the front of the structure, according to Indian media, but the Indian Navy Command did not disclose the details of the incident.

Yes, but mostly the Pak-Fa and the lease of another submarine of the same category that is being negotiated..Russian experts say that the visit by US Navy personnel to the Sub won't reveal any secrets, but the act is against the lease clauses..

Can't confirm the authenticity of this source as the OP says Russians "suspect" but IN or IAF should no way allow US personnel to inspect our Russian inventory. There was a report of how a CIA spy got to know of the capabilities of T-72s by inspecting Indian tanks and inviting them on-board something as complex & strategic as a nuke sub is the dumbest move ever if true. That would not just reveal our capabilities but also put Indo-Russian ties in jeopardy
 
IF true, The indian govt is a bunch of buffoons. There goes our relations with Russia and Russia in future will refuse to sell India any sensitive tech. India should do damage control .Else India stands to lose a lot strategically.

nuke subs is a strategic high tech. And it has been confirmed by Tass. I think you don't understand what consequences this can have
 
soviets and Russians have faced such violations in the past and they won't allow it.
US has always been lucky to buy Russia's friends.
