The proposed nuclear supply is dodgy at best. The supplier countries are asking so much in return that it might not actually go well for long. France & US only agreed because Indian Army relented to buy a large cache of arms and fighter jets.India can't do that too much, too often to aggravate the already exploding arm's race vis-a-vis China and Pakistan. Thorium is India's best(and perhaps only) hope. That's why it is still betting on arcane technologies like solid fueled thorium reactors, because they have invested so much into it already. The program has "got to" produce 30% of energy needs by 2050 or all is not well for India.
