- Making a strong pitch again for operationalising the Indo-US nuclear deal, Atomic Energy Commission Chief Anil Kakodkar said on Friday that "history will not forgive us" if it is not clinched.
....
"Here is a chance ... without compromising on our principles, we can bridge energy security for the future," Kakodkar said in a public lecture on "Evolving Indian nuclear programme: Rationale and perspectives", organised by the Indian Academy of Sciences.
Without mentioning the deal but giving enough indications that he exactly meant that, he said: "If we don't do now, history will not forgive us". He termed it (the deal) one of the most promising and viable way of bridging energy security for the future.

He said we have enough fuel uranium to power 10,000 MWe for forty years, but yet we don't have yet 10,000Mwe capacity yet? We also have ten percent of the world coal reserves yet we don't utilize them. We live in the tropics yet no solar energy. He also said without outside help we with commercial scale Fast breeder being made by 2010 we can have as much 500,000Mwe, without outside support because breeder reactor breed fuel.
Further By criminals and lies you cannot change what is written future governments will only be able to interpret what is written and nothing ls. Why the secret in IAEA agreement, why Pakistan and china can inspect our nuclear establishment know our technology they are too part of IAEA, also inspection of nuclear plants used to make bombs. So please tell why we will loose capacity for war, while Pakistan and China does not put any of their reactors under inspection that too international inspection.
Also why are we not guaranteed one once of Uranium by this agreement still US must go by its respective laws before giving anything in this agreement and we know how many times we were sanctioned by US.

All Acting Chiefs of all Indian Depts are Worth Believing (during the BJP tenure)!

Thanks for you Thanks . Would have been a smart comment if you knew that neither Brijesh Mishra nor Kalaam are government employees currently . Both of them dont draw salaries from the government curently .

Prabhat mohanty, Stop being naive. Anil Kakodkar works for the government of India do you expect him to say anything differently.
Nobody is questioning the need for energy security what people are questioning is the 123 agreement and the Hyde Act.
India has refused to sign the CTBT - if all agrees that is right then how does one accept an agreement whereby we are prohibited from testing. Or if testing is not needed - Dr APJ Abdul Kalaam says why not sign the CTBT and get all the benefits that we get with the deal without riders? It is not whether Dr Singh is right or Advani is Right or Karat is right it is question of what is right for the country. As far as history not forgiving us is concerned there are too many things for which history will not forgive us- Messing up the Kashmir Issue, the defeat of 1962 etc etc. I don’t understand what AEC Chief means by saying ' bridge our energy security ' why is he not giving at least ball park figures of how much percentage of our energy requirements will be meet by Nuclear energy ? Or does he accept the figures of the Left- less than 2 % in the next one decade? This is not bath soap that somebody can sell using celebrity endorsement! The Government must come out with details of how India will actually benefit!
