As far as regards Vaghdhare Taramati is not possible to accept compensation to give rise to increased nuclear power plant in the world. "If they want the land, let us stand on it-dispárennos-and then stay tuned it," said the determined 53 year old woman, wearing a blue and gold sari and gesturing with a spatula.
Located in the courtyard outside his home, a young man selected for the coveted green mangoes from the garden variety Alfonso family. "Our land is our mother. We can not sell it and receive compensation," said Vaghdhare, who was among the villagers detained during recent protests against the plant.
There is much at stake for India, which suffers from chronic energy shortages. The plant eventually would have six reactors capable of generating nine thousand 900 megawatts of electricity, enough to power 10 million Indian homes. Opposition to the proposed plant in Jaitapur hardened in the framework of the nuclear crisis in Japan, with posters in the village showing scenes of devastation at the Fukushima plant last month and warned of what might happen to this region the Western Ghats north of Goa.
While villagers and fishermen can frustrate the plant, it is unlikely that India give up its nuclear ambitions broader view of the increase in energy demand and the lack of alternatives. India suffers from an energy deficit at peak time of about 12 percent, which acts as a brake on an economy growing at nearly nine percent and generates blackouts in much of the country.
About 40 percent of Indians, or 500 million people without electricity. Prime Minister Manmohan Singh played his political career in 2008 with an agreement with the United States which ended India's nuclear isolation dating back to their tests a nuclear device in 1974, opening up a civil nuclear market worth 150 billion dollars.
India now operates 20 reactors, mostly small, at six sites with a capacity of four thousand 780 megawatts, or three percent of its total energy capacity. The nation expects to increase its nuclear capacity to seven thousand 280 megawatts for next year, more than 20 000 megawatts by 2020 and 63 000 megawatts by 2032 incorporating nearly 30 reactors.
Shortly after the earthquake and tsunami that damaged the Fukushima plant and brought the world to rethink the use of nuclear energy, Singh said India's nuclear program was on track but that regulators would evaluate security systems to ensure that the plants can withstand disasters similar nature.
"I do not think there's any panic reaction product to order a halt to nuclear projects," said MR Srinivasan, former chairman of the Atomic Energy Commission of India, who chose the site Jaitapur. "Some studies, in the case of new projects, the security of these sites and facilities that propose to build there in the context of an extreme natural event of low probability but still possible as the one that occurred in Fukushima," said Srinivasan .
