‘NEW DELHI, Aug 17 Reuters – An Indian parliamentary panel will on Wednesday recommend changes to a bill aimed at opening up a $150 billion nuclear power market, including more compensation for accidents and extending liability to private suppliers.’
‘The panel will recommend the liability cap be trebled to $320 million, a member of the panel who asked not to be named, said.’
