He has sought the votes of convicts, indulged in horse trading and tied up with the likes of Amar Singh. Why is he a nice guy? He is another crooked politician.
Myth #11: India needs more nuclear power to assure its energy future.
Fact: Nuclear power has been virtually insignificant in India’s energy mix in the past, and will be no more important in the future. India has been generating electricity with nuclear reactors for more than 40 years. Yet, reactors supply only 2% to 3% of its electricity today. India has not built more reactors because they have not turned out to be as safe, or as clean, or – most important – as economical as originally thought. Even if India were to achieve a 50% increase in nuclear power generation (which is unlikely) such a step would only increase India’s overall electricity output by one percent at most, and would only increase India’s overall energy output by a fraction of one percent. That is not a significant increase in the energy available to India and would not decrease India’s demand for oil and gas.

He is not politician thats why he has always worked for country unlike crooked politicians. In fact he was always opposed by all the political parties in the past also. He has already created history by opening Indian market and this nuclear deal will be his second best gift to country.

You are a man for gifts obviously..... You actually should be wary of unknown people bearing gifts.... such as the Bush variety ...
who keep badgering you to accept this fabulous gift.... .. ready to give it to you even if it means signing a deal with a monority government etc.... :-)
You aren't a good bargainer I see.... you must constantly be getting duped by salemen of differing descriptions throughout your life... :-)

Infact he does not need to be a nice guy. He knows what is doing and why he is doing so.
