Approved by Prime Minister Modi's cabinet, the legislation ends the government monopoly, enables private sector participation, and establishes a framework to achieve 100GW nuclear capacity by 2047. This strategic initiative aims to strengthen energy security, support climate goals, and create economic opportunities while modernizing the regulatory environment for safe, reliable nuclear power expansion.
