RE:Need for nuclear power
by Ramachandran on Jun 24, 2008 01:01 PM

But there is a catch!
For running our present nuke plants , we are sacrificing our wings being cut throgh this DEAL!!.Our future Energy security lies in Thorium based Fast reactor technology, as outlined and being implemented by Bhabha and follwers. We have big reserves of Monasite sand , sufficent for Future India. This deal deal categorises Fast reactor technology being developed in our country as Military installation. They can inspect our Fast Reactors on suspision and put a hold on developmentof these reactors, as USA has NO fast reactor programme. If they are giving something we should be very careful before accepting. for example they Gave CRAY computer when we ourselves gained knowledge to build one like that.
