India faces challenges balancing energy security and local opposition in projects like the Chutka nuclear plant and Siang multipurpose project, which involve resettlement and environmental concerns. While India has met and exceeded several clean energy targets ahead of schedule, experts urge setting more ambitious goals aligned with global climate aims.
