<br/>The US has said India is committed to the Nuclear Liabilities Bill and it is up to the Government there to figure out how to move forward on it. Assistant Secretary of State for South and Central Asia Robert Blake told reporters in Washington the passage of the bill in Indian Parliament is a crucial step for full implementation of the historic Indo-US civil nuclear deal. <br/><br/>The comments came in the wake of the Opposition objections to some aspects of the controversial legislation in India. He said the US is fully committed in implementing the civil nuclear deal signed with India. Mr Blake said, in all bilateral talks, India has consistently said that it remains committed to fulfilling this commitment under the civil nuclear deal, to pass civil liability legislation. <br/><br/>The Indian Government is facing stiff resistance from Opposition parties over the legislation and has indicated its willingness to hold talks with them. BJP and Left parties have blocked the introduction of the bill in the Lok Sabha, saying the nuclear plant operators were being let off with a meagre liability in the event of accidents.
