America will withdraw the uranium if ever India starts thinking independently. And India will be brought to a standstill with no electricity and riots will break out and that will be the beginning of the chaos and civil war. We are better off without america. We could rather go for other means of energy to fuel our growth than this, cos we will be at the mercy of America for the rest of our life. Give it a thought, do you want your children and grandchildren to be the slaves of white people???

Knickerwallahs like Anup tend to be dramatic. India brought to a standstill, riots, chaos, civil etc, if US withdraws uranium
Why we sign the deal with the US is that the latter commands huge sway over the NSG. It is only through NSG can we get a waiver and possibly a seat in the NSG itself.
The deal recognizes India's right to maintain uranium strategic reserves. Once we get a NSG waiver, we can freely trade the nuclear market. This means we can buy uranium from any country, including the US. I am sure India will diversify its supplier base. So even if we have to return US stocks, the impact is minimal. The deal also makes it imperative that before we return the supply back to the US, they need to make alternative arrangement for such supply returned to them. This too after a fairly lengthy legal process. So no sudden shocks.
Lastly, even after factoring the deal, nuclear power share in total power generated would be a measly 6% by 2020.
So I suggest you Knickerwallahs read before contributing. But then Knickerwallahs like to be channels of disinformation

ALL RIGHT DOES NOT SEEM TO KNOW WHAT COUNTRIES DO WHEN THEIR POSITION IS THREATENED.YOU seem to see the world in rose tinted bollywood fashion.The truth is far from it.
And do you really beleive that if we antagonize US, other countries will still be ready to trade uranium with us. Get a life, son. The moment you antagonise US, you got no friends in NSG. And what do you think is NSG??? Without uranum reserves, dont even dream abt having a seat in NSG. You BJP wallas need more practical knowledge than the copycat printed knowledge from sangh manuals. Get a life, dear.

DUde, Thats why we should continue to research on thorium cycle. Like a business man we should take advantage of all options as well as continue our walk towards self reliance
