Who says we sacrificed our nuclear independence.
India has presently 22 reactors. The deal permits India to separate our military and civilian reactors and place the later under an inspection regime of the IAEA. India has accordingly identified 14 reactors to be under the deal. The other 8 reactors, outside the deal, permits India's military nuclear program to continue unfettered.
The capacity utilization of our reactors are falling every year. We have invested huge amount of money in these reactors and not getting full value from this investment. Soon after the deal, we may get uranium and spare parts for these reactors to increase their capacity utilization
