Dr. Srinivasan is certainly one of those persons who knows what he is speaking about, being close to 80. He knows how and why the search for uranium was slowed down while the pace of building nuclear reactors were accelerated. After all, he was in-charge of all this at one time. Now when the power stations are starving for fuel, what alternatives we are left with. And apart from nuclear isolation, we can hardly afford isolation on fronts of export of mangoes and many other farm based products. We have the farmers and their starvation due to lack of power to be concerned about. Therefore we should concentrate on issues related to cost of power rather than on testing bombs which we all know are never going to be used.
