As India's negotiation with International Atomic Energy Agency is in its concluding stage, the Communist Party of India on Wednesday said the Left parties are determined not to allow the government to go ahead with the Indo-US civil nuclear deal.

"I don't think that they (government) can go ahead (with the deal) like that," CPI general secretary A B Bardhan told reporters on the sidelines of a function in Delhi.

He was responding to a question on what would the Left parties do if the government plans to go ahead with the deal despite its objections.

He said the standoff on the nuclear deal between Left parties and the government continues.

"The Left is determined not to allow the government to go ahead with the 123 agreement," he said.

The senior Left leader, however, ruled out the possibility of mid-term elections.

"I think there will be no mid term elections. The elections will be held on due time," he said when asked whether the standoff will lead to a mid-term poll.

Releasing the draft political resolution of the Communist Party of India-Marxist last Sunday, party general secretary Prakash Karat said there is no forward movement on the Indo-US nuclear deal as the United Progressive Alliance-Left committee will decide its fate.

"It has gone to the IAEA, it will come back to this committee which we have set up. When that comes we will see. It is not going forward anywhere," Karat had said.
