Russia To Build India's Largest Nuclear Power Plant At Kudankulam, Says Putin

At a joint press meet with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Russian President Vladimir Putin said, "We are conducting a flagship project to build India's largest nuclear power plant at Kudankulam. Two of the six reactor units are already connected to the grid, while four more are under construction. Bringing this plant to full capacity will make an impressive contribution to India's energy needs, providing cheap and clean power for industries and households. We can also discuss small modular reactors, floating nuclear plants, and non-energy uses of nuclear technology, including in medicine and agriculture. We are working with our Indian partners to build new international transport and logistics routes, including the International North-South Transport Corridor from Russia and Belarus to the Indian Ocean. There are major opportunities for bilateral trade with the expansion of this corridor, including its key link -the Northern Sea Route."
