why not use the abundant coal to generate power, and produce steel from plenty iron ore. Japan has done that by eating our ore n coal. Curb coal mafia, utilise high quality iron ore, construct India. then think of deals.

They've considered all that and found that to keep up a good pace of growth, we would need to depend on Nuclear power. Otherwise, Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam wouldn't have endorsed it, dude..

DR.APJ kalam is selective talker while he did not open his mouth to denounce RAM SETHU project either on economic ground or environmental problems or ecological problems or saving marine life or faith of 80 millions hindus.but he promptly supported nuclear deal after he came back from his visit to america. so judge what is his motive?

U r the selective talker. Ur party BJP is selective talking party. Without naming the leader, Ur party is accusing. And u r talking about Mr. Kalam who do not have anything. Have u read his book 'Wings of Fire'. Read and then drag him into such dirty politics.

Dr. Abdul Kalam is a noble man. But he is not a politician. Nuclear fuel supply is good for india, we all know. But is that at the cost of our sovereign status or becoming a puppet country? We don't know what is there in the deal and it's implication. I don't think common people like you and me don't have so much of indepth knowledge and experience to decide on this. There are experts, and since this is such an important decision for the country, it's good for us if there is a all party consensus on this.

what wrong in becoming a puppet under a great country like US..
US is just one third in India, and we are scared that they may make us slaves and we will become puppets in their hands??? this is a typical indian's mentality.

Ok... I have an idea, Make His Excellency APJ The President of Republic of India, Under him let the Armed Forces Take over for just 5 Years. No Political Parties, No Congress, No BJP, No BSP or whatever... Then lets see how these 543 goons, mafias & clowns realize their freedom.
