India Plans Major Policy Shift to Allow Private Investment in Nuclear Power

India is set to amend its atomic energy and nuclear liability laws to facilitate private sector investment in the civil nuclear segment. The government aims to address corporate concerns about liability and attract global investment to meet an ambitious target of generating 100 GW of nuclear power by 2047. This major policy overhaul is deemed crucial for India's goal of becoming a developed nation and is more complex than the recent opening of the space sector.
