MUMBAI: India expects assured fuel supply for all its imported reactors from the Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG) including the US, although it has a choice of getting it separately from any of the suppliers after the waiver, a top nuclear power expert said on wednesday. "We are sure of fuel (uranium) supply from Russia and France for the reactors to be supplied by them, and we expect similar assurances from the US, once the 123 agreement is operationalised," M R Srinivasan, Member Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) said at the 21st anniversary of the NPCIL formation day on wednesday. The NSG approved waiver to India early this month.
