They both utilise nuclear fission, in which nuclei of U-235 or Pu-239 are split apart which releases enormous energy. In nuclear power this is done at a comparatively slow controllable rate, in a weapon you want a very rapid reaction to create a huge blast of energy.
Some common cons of nuclear power include the risk of accidents leading to radioactive leaks, the long-term storage and disposal of radioactive waste, and concerns about nuclear proliferation and the potential for nuclear weapons development. Additionally, nuclear power plants can be expensive to build and decommission.
No, India has both civil nuclear power reactors and nuclear weapons
"Nukes" is a colloquial term for nuclear weapons, which are explosive devices that derive their destructive power from nuclear reactions. These weapons can cause devastating damage and are considered weapons of mass destruction.
It can produce low grade plutonium that need be extracted from the used nuclear fuel through used fuel reprocessing. However, power reactors are subject to the international nuclear safeguards to prevent its misuse.
The countries known to have nuclear weapons are: United States Russia United Kingdom France China India Pakistan North Korea Israel Germany, Italy, Japan and South Africa have the capability of building nuclear weapons but have not done so. Canada once had nuclear weapons, but has dismantled its weapons and permanetly deacitvated its nuclear weapons program. So far it is the only country to do so.

People Keep Nuclear Weapons As A Sense Of Power.
Japan has nuclear power plants but no nuclear weapons
The first Islamic country to have nuclear weapons was Pakistan.
No, Bosnia does not possess nuclear weapons. The country is a party to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and does not have any known or declared nuclear weapons program.
There is no nuclear power station in Northern Ireland or nuclear weapons.

Nuclear fuel for nuclear power reactors Nuclear weapons
Yes, nuclear weapons can be scrapped. The radioactive materials can be used in nuclear power plants.
nuclear waste is a by product of nuclear power plants, or in the creation of nuclear weapons.
India is already a nuclear power, and they have nuclear weapons on hand. They have already made the decision to "encourage" nuclear weapons, and presumably for increasing their own security.
By 'devices' do you mean nuclear weapons, or peaceful uses of nuclear power?
