INDIA-FRANCE 2 LAST


The 34-year-old embargo on civilian nuclear exchanges with
India, imposed in 1974 following a series of Indian nuclear
tests, was lifted last year after years of negotiations
between India and the United States.

India currently has 17 nuclear reactors in operation that
supply a mere 2.5 per cent of the country's electricity. By
2020, that figure is expected to rise to four to five per
cent.
The gap between electricity supply and demand nationwide
averages up to 12 per cent at peak times, according to
government figures. PTI PYK
