New Delhi: Government yesterday (July 26, 2006) told Lok Sabha that India will accept no new conditions in the civil nuclear deal with the US with Prime Minister Manmohan Singh assuring the House that there will be no compromise with the understanding of July 18 last year.

Intervening during the Question Hour, Singh said his government was making efforts to ensure 'utmost transparency' and 'overall accountability' with respect to the deal reached between him and US President George W Bush.

"We will never compromise in a manner which is not consistent with the July 18 Joint Statement," Singh told the Lok Sabha.
