Nuclear
by arungopal agarwal on Jul 16, 2007 10:41 AM   Permalink | Hide replies

We need nuclear energy/electricity for our fields as well as for industry. Coal/gas etc., cannot fulfill our requirements.Without US help, we cannot produce it as we do not have raw material for our nuclear plants. None others have also not offerrred it so far. We should give up false ego problem of left,who has otherwise ruined Indian development and Indian public only, should try to reconcile as far as possible, without affecting dignity of the nation.

Nah!! Dont say we dont have nuclear fuel. We have abundance of plutonium in our own country. But all the advance nuclear reactors available in the world are capable of processing uranium. Thus our long term goal should be to develop indegenious plutonium reactors. In the mean time we can proceed with 123 agreement and get the technological edge from other countries.
