Russian President Vladimir V. Putin, on a visit to New Delhi, offered to build four nuclear reactors for energy-starved India.

Russia is already building two 1,000-megawatt nuclear reactors in the southern town of Kudankulam.

In talks with Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, Putin also proposed giving India broader access to Russia’s hydrocarbon energy riches. The two nations signed deals on energy, scientific and space cooperation.
