is there a working thorium reactor ? in that case the deal with america or NPT need not be signed. the so called thorium reactor will be produced after 30 years (which wont work just like arjun tank or tejas fighter) and by that time ther wont be any energy for power.
the very few projects that work - brahmos & isaro rockets are done with close russian collaboration.
so konw the limitations of the local science establishment (the best scientist from india are in america), thats imperative.

Your nature is terrible to say the least. You refuse that nuclear energy is CANNOT replace oil and gas else US would not be dependent on Gulf oil.
You have been exposed as an american stooge.
You are free to kiss and lick American BOOTS but we Indians will never bow down to sign any third class agreement.
If you are so in love with america then get the hell out of India.
And Indian scientists have delievered:
It took US and USSR more than 9000 nuclear explosions to be able to design Thermonuclear bomb whereas Indian scientists designed in 5 1 explosions without any help.
It is people like you who have crap names to hide behind and pretend that you are indians. But your game is up.

no they have not delivered, the THERMONUCLEAR bomb test in 1998 did NOT work.
anyway if you don't like america, show by ACTIONS not words....boycott all american & western incvented products such as computers, internet, automobiles, movies, television, satellites, aeroplanes, pharmaceuticals, slectronics etc.

This was a test of reduced yield two-stage thermonuclear bomb using a fusion boosted fission primary, apparently a 43-45 kt design test yield for a ~300 kt weapon. The available evidence indicates that the boosted primary performed correctly, but that the secondary stage failed partially.

India may not have an H-bomb, says scientist P Rajendran
Dr B K Subba Rao may not be a familiar name, not quite in the league of Dr P K Iyengar, Dr R Chidambaram and the like. But this scientist, who once worked on an Indian nuclear submarine project and stymied some bad projects backed by the establishment then, is now calling the veracity of the thermonuclear test at Pokhran into question and demands a parliamentary investigation into the possibility of fraud.
He points out the unnaturally low seismic values registered across the world. An early Chinese H-bomb explosion had yielded six megatons. Even the 1974 explosion had produced a signal of 5 on the Richter scale, in comparison to the 4.7 registered the current tests by the British Geological Survey and the National Geophysical Research Institute at Hyderabad with some international institutes registering higher values, all of which pointed to values between 15 and 25 kilotons.

your article is nonsense,a 40-60 kiloton h-bomb yield is very, very small....its actually the fission a-bomb trigger in the first stage, the 2nd fusion stage did not work which would have yielded 300 kt.
it was designed for 300 kt yield, so the yield is 1/5 of the intended, thus shows it did not work ....just like arjun tank & tejas fighter.

kindly swallow your pride & face reality, the march to greatness is first accepting ones limitations.

So now you call the prestigious magazine NewScientist as rubbish. And you selectively half-quote scientists.
Again your lies are exposed. You are like people who speak half truth which is nothing but lies.
We Indians are proud of our achievements and unlike you american thevies (who stole rocket and nuclear tech from german scientists) we have worked hard to achieve state of art even with less than 0.5% of research budget.
So you can maintain your stupid american ignorance.

you are lying again as the output was 60 and not 45 kt
The respected New Scientist magazine confirmed the near 60 kiloton yield and set at rest the controversy whether or not India exploded a thermonuclear device.

againwe tell you that you will not be allowed to spread lies

AEC chairman Dr R Chidambaram had said the low values were due to phase differences -- as happens when waves cancel each other out -- when the three devices were set off together.

Ya ya for non scientific people like you I can understand the difficulty in understanding wave difference in sesmic disturbances and distructive interference.
