I have seen lot of post here pro on N Deal, but on should not forget it is kind of giving blank check to uncle Sam, before writing something about this please go through the nuclear deal completely, uncle Sam never do anything without their profit, there are lot of ways to generate electricity our f**king leader never show interest on those, simply they want to copy which is coming easily but we have to pay the price for it sooner or later.

I accept uncle will not do any business without any profit. But even if it is going to contribute only 10%, what you are proposing to replace that with thermal power, biomass based power plant? do you know Indian Thermal power stations use Australian coal due to the fact that Indian coal is of low grade? If you want to use biomass based power plant do you know much land, money that is required? So come up with a solution than simply saying we will use bla bla bla

Look at the indian market, required lots of fuel to go faster than we are planning... no one can stop us there. Any other competive nations will worry if we are getting stronger there..
Think possitively, and consider just a business deal. Any signed contract will have a plus and minus, but end of the day we should consider our benefits only.
Why did America invest lots of money in afgan, iraq and other countries? its a business deal that looking for long term returns. Same way, signing a deal with india democratic way they are looking at another opportunities. As long as benefit is minimum 50:50 ratio, we should go for it.
We are the democrats, we can oppose anything. But open your eyes and consider US$ still far below in the market while india running to GDP20 ratio. We need extra enerty to increase to GDP30 ratio.
Our fate is, indians are skilled, knowledge resources around the world with one thing common - our emotion always above our common sense :)
NB: We saw protesters stop building express high way projects in Kerala. Reason? express high way break the kerala in to two! Well, they are the one of the highest moderate peoples in india. Good luck guys!

Yes even the fuel for these reactors has to be BOUGHT at a Unknown price. After that all reactors produced will account for 10% of Indias electricity . My sore point is FMCT (Fissile Material Cut Off treaty) or its content INSIDE NSG agreement. Without Fissile Material there can be No nuke weapons.

The main reason we are getting fuel for this reactors are we DON'T HAVE ENOUGH FUEL. Do you think just for reactors we went for the deal, no buddy we went for the fuel.

And despite all this, China is against us signing the deal... hmm... thats strange.. now why would China care if we went ahead and got the deal if its indeed so bad...
The US needs allies and India is the only democracy that it can trust to give that kind of knowledge. Not only is this deal good for us, it is also good for the world to keep such countries as China at bay... today we dont have half the nuclear technology that our near great neighbour has... try and understand that this is not India giving in to US demands... but the US giving in to India's needs...
Do not doubt the progress we are making... and do not be under the prejudice of the congress bashing, sonia bashing mentality.... as this deal may actually help us here.
