Well, most of the argument against nuclear deal is based on mis-information. A lot of simple souls are being mislead..

Current economic uranium resources will last for over 100 years at current consumption rates, while it is expected there is twice that amount awaiting discovery. With reprocessing and recycling, the reserves are good for thousands of years.[34]. It is estimated that 5.5 million tonnes of uranium ore reserves are economically viable[35] , while 35 million tonnes are classed as mineral resources (reasonable prospects for eventual economic extraction).[36] An additional 4.6 billion tonnes of uranium are estimated to be in sea water (Japanese scientists in the 1980s showed that extraction of uranium from sea water using ion exchangers was feasible

Where did you suddenly get this information? Are you confusing this with Thorium?

Please research this some more and you will see, India did not have enough Uranium to run even current reactors at full capacity a year or two back when Russia had to stop exports.
