is Uranium is really future of energy needs

God Knows if the Deal is good or not, why did the govt lied to people.
1. PM and congress says that its bound by international law, the US the deal is bound by US law.

2.These guys are telling uranium is required for power generation. whaat a lie, it will take around 5-10 for us to generate the power as out come of this deal and that to will not fulfill 10% of our energy requirements, and current uranium reserves all over the world will last at the max 2 decades to fullfill the energy requirements of the whole world.
so why are we spending so many 1000s crores and national security at stake.
And no county will supply uranium which is meant for military use to India, atleast their political class are not as currupt like indian political class.

Ok this seems to the right for my scribbling..

:) well what we gain is the technology access and that is all the deal is about. I think india is looking for a good mix of fuels & technologies here. Thorium although in abundance we r yet to have the techgly to harness energy out of it. mind you no one has the technology yet as they don't have much thorium :).
One argument was we may be fuel(other than thorium) dependent on NSG. Fair enuff..

Come out of this perspective....

N-deal is just a pawn in the bigger strategic game. Mark my words.
It is now upto India, how it plays its cards. Sardar g started off well. But it is always the end game which matters. Cards to chess :), Well who says the game changes?? Wakeup!! it is a game of games(GOGs - registered :)). The question is do we have the stomach or enuff players with stomach for GOGS. sardarg may one day go for the best of GOGs, curious how looks in GOG(LE)s

Kranti,

Uranium deposits are slated to last 80-100 years and not 2 decades as you incorrectly pointed out.
No one would go through this mess if it was only 2 decades..
Countries will supply Uranium to India for civil use, not military use. This has been repeated so many times by now that it is surprising you ask this..
