New Delhi: Berating the new changes in the Nuclear Liability Bill brought by the Government, the CPI(M) today said it was not in national interest and asked all parties to oppose it.

Party politburo member and Rajya Sabha MP Brinda Karat said the government has gone against the recommendations of the Standing Committee that went into the Bill for the third time.

"Definitely, it is not in national interest... the latest amendment goes against the recommendations of the Standing Committee of Parliament," she said.

The CPI(M) leader alleged that the new amendments would only help and protect foreign suppliers.

"As far as national interest is concerned, we certainly request and think all parties should move against the amendments," she said.
