i don't know abt thorium reactor and all that. what i feel is that we should not be controlled by US keeping this deal as a reason. We should have our freedom to decide what we should and what we should not. Just because some great scientists of US have done great things doesn't mean that we should sell our freedom to them. Don't mix these issues. So what if we are not scientifically advanced as US? do u mean that, just because we are not, we should be under their control? Think about it.
