Now, the question is why is India still trying to appease US and all the members of NSG to get nuclear energy?

I have been looking at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_policy_of_India#Solar_Energy

I think, the government should take bold steps to make solar energy cheaper and promote more investments there rather than trying to run behind nuclear energy.
