KUDANKULAM is the place where India has built one of its latest Nuclear Powered Plants for the production of Electricity, with the help of russia.
And the People of Kudankulam do not like it all. Fears of a nuclear Disaster have made them Protest against the Plant for More than 10 Years.
I have repeatedly written that nuclear power plants are Not all that dangerous. Okay, Okay, I do Know about Chernobyl and the Japan disaster, as Others, and that Many, Many Western Countries Opting out of nuclear plants. What I mean is that Submarines are powered by nuclear power, and yet Sailors remain in them for Months at a Time. ...That russia has a Very bad record of nuclear safety is another story.
What Worries me, and What Most People are not paying attention to is the fact that the Disposal of the nuclear Waste is such a Hard and Tricky business... Particularly for the Coming Generations.
With all this, here is the Latest (as of Yesterday), of the tamil nadu gorement's way of handling the protests... Electricity is Switched Off, Cell Phones are made In-Operable, Cases of 'Anit-National Activity' and Charges of 'Setting Off Country Bombs' are made against the Leaders of the Kudankulam Protest, notably Uday Kumar, a Gentleman if there ever was one. By the way, the tn gorement has very kindly denied Bus Services to the People of that area for a Very long time.
'And Brutus is a Noble man,' and India is a Democracy.
