‘Transformative Tech Moment’: PM Modi Hails Passing Of SHANTI Bill

New Delhi, Dec 18 (PTI) Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday said the passing of the SHANTI Bill by Parliament is a transformational moment for India’s technology landscape and opens up numerous opportunities for the private sector and the youth.

The Sustainable Harnessing and Advancement of Nuclear Energy for Transforming India (SHANTI) Bill was passed by Parliament on Thursday, a move that will open up the tightly controlled nuclear power sector for private players.
