for most of his innings he has been working under the shadow of Corrupt congress leaders like arjun singh and company.... he didnt raise his voice when caste basedreservations were implemented.
But this time.. he has publicly challenged left to withdraw support on the nuclear issue. It seems that success of nuclear deal is close to his dream of making India BIG. A dream that only an educated politician can see.
I dont suspect his understanding since he is the most qualified person to forsee Indias needs vis-a-vis economic and energy security.
Opponents to the use of nuclear fuel often brandish three haunting reminders of nuclear power's fallibility: Sellafield, Three Mile Island and Chernobyl.
No new nuclear power stations have been both planned and built in either the US and Britain since these incidents!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here is another misinformation by Andrews: Three Mile Island happened in 1979, and Chernobyl in 1986...What happened after this... South Texas Project reactors went on line in 1988 in new Reactor constructed at Palo Verde the largest (as of July 31, 2005) in operation now. Chooz B1 (with a net capacity of 1,455 megawatts/electric) , was the first of the four to be completed. It went into service in the Ardennes in August 1996. Chooz B2 reactor is now also in service, went critical in 1997 in Vermont and Rhode Island USA, Japan's Toshiba Corporation has offered to build a 10 MWe reactor to provide light and heat to Galena, a remote Alaskan village on the Yukon River in USA, to be completed in 2008. Russia has planned Two nuclear floating power stations each anticipated to cost $100 to $120 million. The first one will supply power to the city of Severodvinsk, approximately 50 miles west of Archangel. 20% of USA electricity is generated by nuclear power plants. So Mr. Andrew, you may be an agent in disguise who doesnt want India to have cheap and efficient power option. Only Chinese, Pakistanis and Communists are against this deal as they dont want India to attain the Superpower status, but in case elections are held tommorow, people will vote massively for Congress Government as it is the only Government which has done India a great honour.People cannot be fooled by this new found patriotism of the left. We know who is their master.

Do you have any idea the electricity you are using is from a thermal power plant, nuclear power plant or hydro electric.
