Lok Sabha passes bill to open up nuclear power sector for private sectors
The Lok Sabha on Wednesday passed the Sustainable Harnessing and Advancement of Nuclear Energy for Transforming India (Shanti) Bill, 2025, to open up nuclear power generation to private players.
The bill proposes to permit any company or joint venture to construct, own, operate, or decommission a nuclear power plant or reactor within the country. Currently, only government-owned companies are permitted to do so.
