is it not really surprising that this is the same congress which under the stewardship of rajiv gandhi enabled india to develop indigenous rocket engines when india was denied cryogenic engine technology. we developed supercomputers, missiles, nuclear bombs without any outsidehelp.so now what are the compulsions of manmohansingh(ex employee of world bank-read usa), sonia maino nee gandhi to bow back and go against everyone including apj abdul kalam( who has been advocating indigenious thorium based reactors instead of these us uranium ones) for this deal and ready to sacrifice(?) evrything as if they are the only ones who are bothered about the future of india(or rahul/priyanka/rehan.......). time to think R V REALLY INDEPENDENT OR IS IT GOING ANOTHER 60 YEARS TO ACHIEVE TRUE INPNDNCE.......

Our fav President is very much for this nuclear deal. Let's not go by Italian Sonia. Let's go by ApJ Kalam's advice. Is his advice good enough?

For thorium fuelled reactors, we will have to wait for at least fifty years. This technology will take time to develop. As for the other items mentioned by you, the super computers were a hoax and other countries such as North Korea and Pakistan have also developed missiles. In fact, many of these products were not accepted by the armed forces.

thanks for a good and a honest reply prem mohan...on missiles apart from prithvi nothing is worthwhile or working....also a lot of components in nuclear bombs are canadian and US ....only great achievement I feel is ISRO...
