    10-15K MW Nuclear Reactor would cost around $20 Billion min. Plus since Pakistan doesn't have NSG waiver nor does it itself posses any huge reserves of Uranium therefore Uranium supplies for such large scale reactors also remains questionable. IMO a mix of nuclear + thermal(similar to the...

    Arjun 130 mm gun: DRDO tastes success

    Bcoz there is no TATA or L&T gun in first place itself.:) In Tata's case they r only providing the platform(i.e. Truck) n the gun is from Denel(blacklisted). So all Tata will be doing is licence manfucturing of Denel guns that too only if they win the contract.:wave:

    Strengthening ties: Pakistan offers to set up sugar mills in Sri Lanka

    Punjab has 446m tons of coal reserves

    Why the cost of setting up solar farm so high in Pak, I mean India is also setting up a 4000 MW solar plant in Rajasthan while the cost of first phase of 1000 MW on similar 5000 acres is INR 7500 Cr.($1.25 billion) while in Pak its $2.2 billion, thats almost twice the amount.
