With India having recently approved eight sites for new nuclear power plants, the state-run Nuclear Power Corp has set itself a target of 63,000 MW of atomic energy over the next 25 years, its top official has said.

"By 2032, we will be able to generate 63,000 MW of power. This will be done with a mixture of indigenous technology and foreign collaboration," S.K. Jain, chairman of the energy major, told IANS in an interview.
