ಮೇನ್ಸ್
GS-III (Energy) and GS-II (International organisations). Rising demand and energy-security concerns are pushing countries towards nuclear power, which the IAEA projects could more than triple by 2060; India's three-stage programme, civil nuclear liability and safety regulation shape its role. Way forward: expand capacity with strong safeguards, waste management and IAEA cooperation while balancing cost, safety and public acceptance.
