RE:self-preservation

World has has 442 Nuclear reactors and USA has 102 out of them. What else you want as a proof of US hold over Nuclear Technolgy. Compare that with 20 units in Russia.

Japan & France are better than Russia having around 50 reactors each.

Why do you feel that US is pusshing India.
It is India's complusion that it does not have Uranium (in house)

Regarding Wind power >> India is world 4th largest on this route and growing. next 5 years India will be 2nd largest on electricity through Wind energy.

But Remember >> For wind power generated electricity , one has to have Strong wind blowing. That capacity is being fast consumed in India. Tamil Nadu has already utilised almost 100% of that!
Tamil nadu is not close to coal pits, its Hydro power is under the scanner of Environmentalists , two Nuclear plants are coming at Kunalkundam ( Russian support )
But Russia can supply More uranium only if India goes through IAEA & NSG.

If these things are not known to you than please update yourself.
