Our scientists have been working on the thorium alternative for the last 40 years. We cannot afford to waste another 10 years. For 40 Years our scientists have been in labour and the baby has not been delivered yet.
Since the 123 agreement allows either party to terminate the deal with one years notice.
All we need to do it so setup 6 Uranium based Nuclear plants and work actively on the thorium Reactor.
India has a so-called "three-stage nuclear program". In the first stage, plutonium is created in its pressurized heavy water reactors (PHWRs) and extracted by reprocessing. In the second stage, fast breeder reactors (FBRs) use this plutonium in 70-percent MOX-fuel to breed uranium-233 in a thorium blanket around the core. In the final stage, the FBR's use thorium-232 and produce uranium-233 for other reactors.
The first stage has been realized with India's 10 nuclear power plants. The second stage is only realized by a small experimental fast breeder reactor (13 MW), at Kalpakkam. This reactor has a history with a lot of problems (as has been the case with the 10 nuclear reactors).
This reactor is on top of a list of DANGEROUS reactors in the country, according to a safety assessment of India's Atomic Energy Regulatory Board. The reactor has a lack of safety measures and cooling systems.
Once we are able to meet safety standards we can walk out of the deal giving one year notice.
