RE:what is 123 agreement?
by Milind on Jul 24, 2008 11:08 PM

USA can either hug India or slap India . India will no

India will not ask why are we hugged or why are we slapped. India cannot hug or slap USA for breach of agreement.

The most important requirement for India 's Economic Growth in the coming years will be the power & infrastructure. The argument put forth favouring the 123 Agreement says that we need Nuclear Power Production to be increased to meet the demand. Power Production in India Presently following are the figures:


Thermal Power 66%

Hydel Power 26%

Solar & Wind Power 5%

- Presently Rs.600 Crores are spent for producing this power.

Nuclear Power 3% - If this is to be increased to 6%, it requires additional Rs.50,000 Crores.

Naturally it will be wise to increase other 3 modes of power production rather than the expensive & dangerous Nuclear Power
