tell us why the hurry in nuclear deal when it just gives us 3% more energy after 20 years. why cant UPA let the public know about the cost of the electricity ( some say it will be 17 Rs per unit ) and the investment ( estimates 19,00, 000 Crores) which will go in.
i sincerely believe there is more to the deal that is the reason bush,Sonia Gandhi( Bofors Scam), laloo (Fodder scam) Mulayam ( Reliance janta Party ) is in a hurry to get the deal done.

Mr Gumpy, There is no doubt that Nuclear power is a long lasting solution then thermal power but Hydel Power is a much better and practically ever lasting solution. But we should not forget the risks involved in generating nuclear power, disposal of waste and continous supply. Any misadventure by any mad nation can cripple our raw material supplies without any fault on our part. We should not forget what happened in Bhopal gas leak case. Nuclear mishap is going to be thousands of times more dangerous.

Kajolika, there is no doubt about the economic reform started by the then finance minister Manmohan Singh, that does not mean that his keen interest in the nuclear deal is a correct move. There are a few nuclear expert (Ex-BARC) who openly expressed their apprehension about this deal. Moreover the exhorbitant cost involves to increse appx. 4 to 6 percent energy is a blunder, I believe. Our politicians play games as per their convenience in life. India is bound to have problems from this deal. The simple reason is that, we will be completely dependent on the suppliers of nuclear fuels like uranium and there they will dictate terms to us. You might say we also import a bulk need oil for our domestic need. True, but in this case if any country refuses to supply the same, we shall only have to curtail our use. In nuclear energy, we need to invest huge in the infrastructure that will not only go waste, the burden of this huge loss would go to the common man.

What about the opinion of Lgendary Scientist Mr. APJ Abdul Kalam? He also supported N-Deal.
