Why should we sign Nuclear deal?

Question

We have enough nature power to produce wind & solar energy

The best as not polluted & long lasting

why to waste money on N-power,

1 50,000 crore requires to use it

2 we will be under watch/control to USA ( who is about to loose its leadership in world)

3 After few years we will face problem of NUCLEAR WASTE which will be extremely bigggggg

4 We have beloved friend Pakistan & terrorists, but we wont be allow to do Nuclear test as if we do so America will take back its machinery, technology which they would have have provide us ... but will not stop controlling them...

Answer 1

USA lose it's leadership?  Then we'll have to quit feeding you useless and worthless morons.  Oh, by the way, if we do lose our leadership role we will be able to act like the other sons-a-b*****s and start invading  and killing you idiots just to do it.  You want China to be your world leader, go for it--oh, but China dosen't have a Trident sub with all the bells, whistles, and other goodies.  Good luck in the new world order.

Answer 2

Why are they stopping us, signing, in our own interests ! & ? 'POLITICAL GAMES' !

Answer 3

We need cheaper power by any means. It is the view of the government that nuclear deal is an option. There are definitely gains in the deal. We are no longer isolated for the supplies. There will certainly be improvement in power situation. We are a galloping economy and our energy needs are increasing manifold. The civil nuclear deal alone is not going to suffice. We need to tap all non-conventional sources of energy like solar, oceanic power. Dependency on coal and gas for power generation should be decreased. There has to be a multi-pronged strategy for producing more power. We should not be paranoid about one source of energy and any agreement that we enter into should not compromise our sovereign right to defend ourselves against our enemies.

Answer 4

Yes of course talks should be held about Nuclear power or any form of production that could lead to the lose of life of people.  

Things to think of, what level of maintenance will the plant have

Would they try some experiment such as the men at Chernobyl done that caused the deaths of thousands

Nuclear power is not safe, how many cities are miles of land are not able to be used now for crops because of Nuclear tests or nuclear accidents.

What protection from fall out do neighbouring states have if something goes wrong.

Such as what is the level of Leukaemia in New Mexico and the Nation of Mexico that could be a result of the nuclear tests over the years. These are things that seem never to be mentioned anywhere.

Wasn't there a ship carrying nuclear waste gong all over the world a few years back trying to find somewhere to dump its cargo. Have not heard anything about that since, I do recall the French Navy, Irish Navy and about ten other countries just watched it and ordered it to keep moving on.

Wonder where she is now, wonder if as I expect they went to some third world country gave the government a few million and a Mercedes and dumped it on some beach.

Answer 5

Since 1998, we have claimed to be a nuclear weapons power, notwithstanding the fact that our arsenal at best consists of no more than a few dozen low-yield bombs whose designs have not been fully tested. Notwithstanding the fact that we do not yet have a missile that can reach even Beijing, let alone continental United States.

Professor Jagdish Bhagwati, Manmohan Singh's fellow Cambridge-trained economist, has an explanation for why we Indians are such silly jingoists. At a lecture at Johns Hopkins University a couple of years ago, he said, 'We (Indians) often confuse the fact that we have thought of something as having actually accomplished something�'

We have only thought of acquiring a nuclear deterrence capability, but we have deluded ourselves into believing that we have already accomplished it.

Thus, India has claimed just after six nuclear tests that it has acquired all the data needed to simulate nuclear weapons and so need not conduct any more tests, that we could indeed simulate nuclear weapons on our computers, that we could now make warheads of 200-500 KT yield, that the H-bomb test had worked perfectly (which it apparently did not), that with just one test -- no matter whether you want to call it a partial success or a partial failure -- we had collected all the data necessary to simulate the H-bomb, and so on and so forth.

All these claims were designed to justify a 'self-imposed' moratorium on further testing, which the government has reiterated every now and then, ensuring that in the last eight years the Indian nuclear arsenal has not amounted to much more than being a 'technology demonstrator' � much like every other Indian military project.

But until now, at least the moratorium and all that jingoism has been 'self-imposed' and self-inflicted. Now, however, this proud nation of a billion people is being asked by its own ostensibly sovereign government to accept a civil nuclear 'cooperation deal' with its principal nuclear tormentor, which has made it a condition that 'cooperation' will cease, and all of India's nuclear infrastructure and investment will be laid waste, if India tests again.

Should we sign such a deal? Should we continue to observe the moratorium?
