Yes ,absolutely correct .Though at present share of nuclear power in India is 6 % but in near future to avoid disaster by using fossil fuels and global warming by using more co2 ,India will need allmost 60% in 2050 and our own reserves are dpleting day by day and will be minimum in 5 years from now .Considering India.s need for more powers to maintain 10% GDP growth on sustainable basis ,we must sign the deal at the cost of national interest .Our political parties should resist any politics for this national crisis .It is like 1991 when India had only 1 billion doller forign exchange reserves or just 7 days import .It could have been another ethiopia or rwanda ,or any other african countries who is suffering economic crisis at that time but thanks to P.V.Narsimha Rao and Dr Manmohan Singh under a minority gov which even present day congress leaders were also oposed to economic liberisation ( No body in congress remember PVN )supported by great Atal Behari Bajpai and BJP .Where was left at that time .Now see the economic boom of India after 15 years of liberisationn is the.This nuclear popower signature is second economic liberisation and I am sure people will remember after 15 years from now when our every village ,roads ,factories,homes ,great great malls will be illuminated 24 hours .

I suggest W Bengal / Kerala can opt out of Electricity through Nuclear Power route. Similarly Narora Atomic power station 2x220 MW should be diverted out of UP
Only than Karat & Mayawati people of these states will understand, what fools they are electing to power.

Only Tamil Nadu depends on nuclear power. No other states depend on it, as nuclear contributes only 2 percent of total electricity production.

on World wide basis , 16% of the total power generated is through Nuclear Route. India is nowhere close to that.
