Big projects bring big kickbacks. I don't know what deal Mulayam has reached with congress. Please google ' Don't go ahead with the N-deal: Top scientists '. (Summary : there is a great deal of disquiet among the scientific community at large about the deal.) Small hydroelectric power projects have great potential in India, but don't bring kickbacks to politicians, so they are of no interest. Of course muslims have their own reason to oppose the deal - ie Ummahs interests, and commies are following China's interests
