Maybe. But if Pakistan is able to prove to the world that it is a responsible state and can transparently account for nuclear material and technology and will never transfer them to anyone else, then I do not see why Pakistan can not get the same deal. Perhaps it is going to be difficult but do-able.



Yes, but even India is not paying for those nuclear power plants, it is all long term foreign investment. So if Pakistan could get a deal then foreign investment will follow. Also I guess India has quite stringent laws regarding the responsibility of reactor manufacturer for compensation in the unlikely event of an accident. Pakistan does not have such a law, so it is going to be even easier for foreign companies to invest if such a deal goes through.

Pakistan does not have such a law because Pakistan does not have a nuclear deal. When deal is signed, its required to put a law, that a liablity will not be on the Manufacturer. India have put the liablity on the Manufacturer, if they are found to be guilty.
And India is paying for those Power Plants. They are going to be managed by NPCIL , PSU. Private Operators of Nuclear power are yet to be seen in India's market.

Chances arr dim..
Coz irrespectve if whether you country is responsible or not, the only thing that matters is if you got the cash. Once India enters NSG you can stop even having a dream of such stuff

I do not think there is any such possibility in distant future, leave alone present! There are quite a few reasons as why PK wont get the Nuke deal in line with India....

very first and the most imp reason is , Pak is a muslim country with very bad track record in the area of Nuke proliferation....

second, gone are the days when Pak was considered at Par with India by western strategists and leaders, Pak is now in totally different league - If not worst than North Korea, not even much better than them...!

So, suggest Pak concentrate on Coal and Hydel energy...Or, take whatever China is giving them under the blanket of Chahsma 1, 2, 3 etc...
