True France owns 68 reactors and produce 70% power out of nuclear.it has advantage of holding collonial rule on west african countries niger, nambia,male ect which control 15% uranium production.hence france invested in above countries reprocessing plants and brng back to france to make fuel fissonable isotope ready to be used in their rectors.it has technology to process,enrichment and reprocessing of spent waste fuel ect and hence it edge over america and other countries in fuel supply position and you can not compare with india where uranium production is just below 1% in jaharkand,andra megalaya which our govt did not concentrate much america has totally 104 nuclear reactors and get uranium from canada,brazil,australia and has its own mines. due to supply difficulty america did not invest further on nuclear reactor. Nuclear deal with america is good on face value if one see the benefits alone.if you see the negative side,we surrender to west/america and can not produce nuclear war heads in future and high cost of power production and heavy investment will make power tariff very high compared to conventional thermal,hydel power units which govt could concentrate with 1/4 of investment likely to be made in nuclear power.
