With space cooperation, nuclear power and defence hardware on his mind, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has rejigged his week-long Europe-Canada tour next month to make Paris the first stop on April 10, followed by Bonn and finally Toronto.
South Block sources said Modi will visit France on April 10-11 after which he will attend the inauguration of the Hannover Fair in Germany where India is a partner.
The PM will then proceed to Canada where the highlight will be a public meeting at Toronto that will be attended by a large number by NRIs.
While India and France signed a civilian nuclear agreement in 2008 with Areva selling 300 tons of nuclear fuel to Nuclear Power Corporation of India Limited (NPCIL), the possibility of a commercial agreement on supply of European pressurised reactors (EPR) for proposed 9,900-MW Jaitapur plant depends largely on economic and technical viability. After India reached closure with the US on nuclear liability issues, forward movement on purchase of six reactors with fuel from France will pivot on commercial negotiations between Areva and NPCIL.
“The supply of EPRs will be on top of PM Modi’s agenda but much depends on the closure of commercial negotiations between the two companies,” said an Indian diplomat..

Courts did acquit him, but pardon my comparison, as have lots of other criminals without the valid evidences, case in point Sajjan Kumar and Tytler (1984). Courts simply work on evidence and proof, and everyone knows how easy is it to botch up the case in favor or against the accuse, especially if you're powerful in India with deep pockets. You must all know how inefficient Indian justice system is.

Current PM Modi was NOT powerful in India between 2002 to 2013. On the contrary powerful people in power and press hounded him ever since the riots backlash occurred in 2002, until 2014.
About riots, religious polarization is acute in India and go back to history for the reasons and also for the number of religious-reasons-riots in India during the past 100 years or so.

In today's Toronto newspaper, there is an article by a Modi-baiter, Dionne Bunsha.
She blames Mr. Modi and his party on the nun rape incident. I have given my comment in the feedback section. Please email Ms. Bunshi directly at her email: "dionne11.AT.gmail.com"
