At last we have people who have national interest who should be a guiding force in future too. Here in India we have a lame duck Prime Minister, running like a slave behind a lame duck President Bush enacting comedy scenes. NAM, Panchasheel and all the legendary Indian foreign policies have been buried by successive BJP -CONG governments. The whole of US and Europe is shutting all its Nuclear Plants and at the same time outsourcing its reactors to the third world.Developed countries want to sell out their nuclear industry junk to countries like India. US is openly cautioning India against signing the Iran pipe line deal. This is bending of our foreign policy by an outside force. Let us not bow to these hooligans. There are enough nuclear bombs to ruin life in this planet. We need no more nuclear bombs. we need no more nuclear reactors.

Only 14% of the world is dependent on Nuclear energy. Imran do u hold a French passport or are u with ur laptop in a Pub. Enough of forests drowned in the name of Dams and development. Enough of accidents in the name of Nuclear around the globe.

Good thought muthu! Mr.McCain offered US 100 nuclear plants. This public announcement is just for the information of India to make India feel that they are for nuclear projects in US. The truth is that present nuclear plants in US are nearing its projected life and are due for 'decommissioning'. They are seriously looking for locations where the old 'junks' could be dumped. Very soon we will see these junks in Indian soil as second hand machineries. India has a Law allowing import of second hand machineries. The ENVIRONMENTALISTS world-over are against the dumping of nuclear waste any where. Rules are enunciated by all most all countries and UN regarding the movement and disposal of nuclear waste.
Can anyone help with details of nuclear projects in 'the pipe-line' in US?
It may be helpful if the details of countries which are against further nuclear plants. Can anyone help?

do you think indian are arseholes who cant make out ajunk from the latest in technology. we need access to technology we can never be forever depended upon any one for leadership we will get access to technology that is near 50 years ahead of us and our govt run reseach laboratories. we dont lack knowledge but we are racing against time we need the latest techn ology to start with so that we can innovate further and master the product rather spend another 50 years just reinventing the wheel. and most important this technology needs to u nversally availiable so that more poeple can apply their minds and develop furhter rather a bunch of govt funded so called scientist with doubtful qualification. Remember the IT techn ology we mastered and are lording over becasue the govt did not even understand what the IT geeks were upto before we arrived on the world scene. so dont worry gopal we are indians if the world supplies us washing machines we will also use them to make lassi. We are after all masters of JUGGAD.
