Mr. Elba. I really need to have the answer to this:

What's your favourite ice-cream flavour?

Indian here.

I agree with that, but a lot of the Indian tension is more with militant insurgency in Kashmir and the 'inability' of the ISI to stop it. Relations between India and Pakistan are flawed only because political conditions and years of brainwashing has made it so.

Educated commoners in India do not harbour such fanatical hatred towards the Pakistanis, and the reverse is also true.

Thus, the prospect of an all out war does seem a bit unlikely, no matter how tense the current situation is... :)

There are a lot of countries that have the capability to produce power using a nuclear source, but choose not to, and rely instead on sources like coal, etc for power generation.

What are the pros of nuclear power generations that far outweigh its cons?

Ah. Thank you, But in terms of mass of product consumed versus energy production, wouldn't nuclear energy be a better and more feasible option for the long run?

So why is there still so much taboo regarding its use?

Believe me when I say this - India is a very wealthy nation, and we have enough money to build on nuclear power.

Unfortunately. A lot of our money is siphoned off by corrupt officials, which in turn hurts our nation's development.

Also, India is heavily investing in hydroelectric and tidal energy projects, but the hydroelectric projects are damaging the environment to a great extent, which is why nuclear energy would be a better source of power generation!
