The Prime Minister said that with a required economy growth of 10 per cent each year, India needs to find alternative sources of energy. Commending the efforts of Indian atomic scientists, Singh said that the country’s nuclear energy programme has suffered due to sanctions and the nuclear deal would end India’s nuclear isolation. “It will open up new opportunities for trade in dual-use high technologies and nuclear materials and equipment, opening up new pathways to accelerate industrialisation of our country. It will enable us to provide electricity to meet the needs of our farmers, our artisans, our traders and our industry,” he said.

Singh said that to ensure industrial development does not have an adverse impact on rural sector, the Government has formulated a new Rehabilitation and Resettlement Policy and would seek Parliament’s approval for it.
