RE:The Indo-US nuclear deal
by ravishankar singh on Jul 11, 2008 10:29 AM

my dear jack sparrow,
it is true that to functionalise thorium based reacters uranium is needed but in very small quantity and that much is avialable in india or india will be able to get it.
what i feel that US is eyeing over our vast thorium resevoirs as it has done in Arab over petrolium by providing technical know how US has become masters of the Arabs fuel reservoirs . similarly US is eying over our vast reserves of thorium by traping indian government through its Hyde Act and indian sovereignty is going to hide befor Hyde!
why should we not wait for some time and engage our scientists to exclarate thorium based reacters rather falling into trap of US as it has done in Arab countries for fuel?
