It is a god observation from Dr. Kalam. But I dont know why he too have to stoop to the level of the Communists and fall for this line of thinking. The reason that everyone is jumping on Thorium is because our country have abundant resource of it. But we need to have proven technology to process it and viable. If so why have we not used this material so far.
Everyone knows the reason which is the technology is not ripe enough. So let us keep up with the pace with the world and move to thorium when it is feasible. In the meanwhile Uranium it is for now.
But the murderous communists all think they are nuclear scientists. May be next they will say that we have a lot of cow dungs in the country and let us make energy with the abundant cow dungs.
Dr. Kalam -> No offense. Never thought that you have to come down and talk in line with the communists.
