INDIA- A
NUCLEAR POWER
Today we are in the 21st
century. And the world have reached its
peak in science, technology and nuclear development. This is a nuclear era. The
word nuclear defines producing of energy that is created when the nuclei of
atoms are split apart or joined together commonly known as nuclear fission or
nuclear fusion.
Nuclear energy is used for making
weapons, generating electricity or making nuclear bombs.
However nuclear power plants are
highly expensive and dangerous as nuclear energy releases radioactive waste which
is highly dangerous for humans and all the organisms on this earth. So,
radioactive waste needs to dispose correctly. Any type of carelessness to
nuclear power plants can cause destruction to the whole people living or
working in and around the place. In fact it can create problems for the next
generations also. So, nuclear power plants needs highly security and carefulness.
There are many countries who have
taken big steps in the field of nuclear era including India.
In fact, nuclear energy is the fifth
largest source of energy in India after coal, gas, hydroelectricity and wind
power.
It was right for India to make a move
toward credible nuclear deterrence by conducting five nuclear tests on May 11
and 13, 1998 named as pokhran tests.
After this tests India declared itself
a full fledged nation. The pokhran test made an incredible impression on the
political powers of the world, specially the countries which is in the nuclear
club.
AFSARA is also its one of the biggest
success as with this India become the first
ASIAN country outside the erstwhile soviet union to have designed its own
nuclear reactor.
Dr. Homi Jahangir bhabha is called the
father of atomic energy in India as he had played a major role in making India
a nuclear power.
It was necessary for India to project
itself as nuclear power to meet the challenge coming from the neighboring countries.
Weak countries have to compromise willingly or unwillingly to so many
discrimination among all other developing countries. They have to sacrifice
their [progress, do away with self respect. Despite so many painful experiences
and defeats from other nations today India proudly stand sixth among the
nuclear power and the credit for the crowning glory goes to the vision
scientists. Nuclear status has won us respect and India has elegantly occupies
the position behind highly developed, so called nuclear self sufficient countries
like America, Russia, China and France.
However India has clearly declared
that it will not use its nuclear power for any bad purpose.
Presently India has 22 nuclear
reactors in operation in 7 nuclear power plants and in our coming generation it
will increase more.
It is true that self sufficience in
nuclear power has opened a new door for India in the path of their success and
this success is lit with so many lamps and hope for a golden future.
