Many keen to sell N-reactors

New Delhi, July 30

While several countries are keen to sell nuclear reactors to India, any deal in this direction would be struck only on terms set down by the government, the Minister of State in Prime Minister's Office, Mr Prithviraj Chavan, told the Rajya Sabha. "We are planning to import nuclear reactors. But this would be done completely on our terms, otherwise, not. Many countries are chasing us for giving orders," Mr Chavan said replying to supplementaries during Question Hour. He said after signing the Indo-US civil nuclear deal, India has sourced uranium for its existing reactors from France and Russia which would meet the country's requirements. India is in talks with companies from Russia, France and the US for importing nuclear reactors, he said. - Our Bureau
