No n-deal means 6,000 MW shortfall: Kakodkar
MUMBAI: Atomic Energy Commission chairman Anil Kakodkar said on Tuesday that if the nuclear deal does not go through, India will have to slash at least 6,000 MW from its projected 20,000 MW target for 2020 in the absence of international civilian nuclear cooperation. Meanwhile, speaking in New Delhi, former US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger warned that delays could affect the deal’s prospects. Emphasising the need to do the deal before George Bush’s presidency term ends, Kissinger said: “The new administration in 2009 will negotiate a new agreement and submit it for Congress’s approval and the same steps would repeat.”
