PRESS RELEASE
Hyderabad, March 17 : Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's statement after the nuclear disaster in Japan that there is no need to be panicky as India will take all safety measures is not only amateurish but also lacks wisdom.
His statement gives the impression that the Japanese have not taken adequate safety measures. What type of natural calamities or man made lapses are in store for us, no one can visualise or predict leave alone taking safety measures against them.
The prime minister who has no control over his own cabinet ministers and has unashamedly wailed in public that he was ineffective due to coalition government, and caused the nation unimaginable and unprecedented loss by allowing mind blowing scams, issuing such absurd statements like taking all safety measures- lacks any tangible weight.
The urgency with which the US authorities issued statement in the immediate aftermath of the Japanese Nuclear power plants disaster urging India not
to abandon Indo-US nuclear deal as India is in dire need of power and only nuclear power can fulfill it clearly shows the ugly face of US business interest over and above the safety of Indian lives.
As a Nation we all wish that good sense should prevail on all those who are at the helm of affairs in taking stock of the nuclear reactor accidents at Chernobyl, Three Mile Island, and Fukushima and our own Bhopal gas tragedy experience to learn appropriate lessons and put full stop to all such death dangling projects. With our corrupt and poor quality practices inherent in the system, it is very dangerous to meddle with such high risk projects. The statements emanating from authorities of the Indian nuclear establishment that we have already handled earthquake and tsunami situations is highly misleading and shallow justification that qualifies as institutional malfeasance. And we are in no way more capable of dealing with nuclear catastrophe, than the Japanese.
