At this juncture Dr.Manmohan Singh and Govt. of India should come up with a strategic plan to develop domestic technology based THORIUM reactors and an investment plan with dedicated implementation plans should be implemented. In the interim, YES it is important to pally with US and get the required technology and fuel by signing for this nuclear deal. Once we achieve THORIUM based energy supply systems, we as Indians can conduct one more nuclear test and then dump this present nuclear deal with US perpetually. This is where PM must show some pragmatism, by creating and implementing a thorium based R & D plan, he can also convince Commies and every Indian. Also commies should remember that "China's interests are NOT (in) INDIA's best interest"

that's needs another fifty years, looking into current indian infrastructure and speding in R & D.. but not a good idea to start and keep other option open till we are independent.

It is indeed better to be independent rather be dependent on any other country and be a puppet country or a begging country in the world. Hum honge kaamiab ek din.
