Nuclear energy is expected to play an increasingly role in India due to the following reasons:-
1. India has limited reserves of coal and petroleum. Nuclear energy minerals like Thorium is found in plenty of India.
2. Hence, nuclear energy can compensate for deficiency of fossil fuels.
3. Nuclear power stations can be established easily and conveniently in those areas where other sources are not available.
4. Nuclear power releases tremendous amounts of energy. India can utilise this energy for peaceful purposes such as generation of electricity that can be used to run machines in industries.
5. It is a non-conventional source of energy. After the initial expenses it becomes very economical.
