To start Thorium Reactor We need Uranium

Thorium is not a fissile material. To start Thorium Reactor we need Uranium. To buy Uranium we need nuclear deal with US

Mr.Kalam seems to be putting the cart before the horse ! Please do your home-work Mr.Kalam.

We have enough uranium rserves to start a Fast Breeder Reactor. We are not totally devoid of uranium. Self reliance is the most ideal policy.

I don't know why kalam keeps rotating around nuke deal. I know all nuke scientists are biased against US. Even Kalam is a sort of thief for US.
He should speak his mind openly and clearly on nuke deal or better be shut.
