This country is destined to suffer another decade of power shortages ,with teeming population,explding middle-class hot on modern gadgets/appliances and no short term solutions.Sadly I don't see any strong leader on horizon who can get a one party rule and a coalition govt will ensure survival of the weakest.
the cost of N-power is way too high. We have tons of hydel power potential in India - something in the tune of 100,000 MW in Arunachal state alone.
Also, separating nuclear facilities will be costly. THE ONLY GOOD PART OF THIS DEAL IS: WE SHOULD GET NUCLEAR TECHONOLY. NOTHING ELSE. INDIAN COMPANIES CAN BECOME PART OF GROWING NUCLEAR POWER TRADE.
There are other negatives as well, as pointed out by BJP: that is surrendering india's strategic nuclear interest.
Overall, this deal needs to be discussed in detail. and Congress and bjp must work together. However, because of muslim votebank, congress is not approaching bjp on this.
