Mr.Jitendra Kumar, a thorium based power plant is already in opeation at Kalpakkam (world's only one). If you do not know the facts, pl don't ridicule others. As per Kakkokar's own admission we have enough resources for setting up 10000 MWe Nuclear Power plants but the present installed capacity is onl 2740 MWe (all the plants of NPCIL put together).
We are now in the second stage of nuclear power production (Pressurized heavy water). The US has a vested interest in preventing us achieving the next stage (Thorium based plants).
The present deal with US will only help the equipment manufacturers from US as we do not even manufacture STand-by Diesel Generating Sets meant for Nuclear Power Plant (Conforming to IEEE-382 Spec). So every thing is not hunky dory as far as the Nuclear deal is concerned.
