Today’s Political and Scientific community’s clash over 1998 nuclear tests has yielded more energy in units of kiltons than the actual nuclear tests.
Everybody be it Missile man Azad or Scientific adviser to Government Kakodkar or scientists are making vague claims of success or failures. Taxpayers need more vivid explanation and answers about past and future tests.
Why all those idiots who are shouting now were silent all these years? What right does Former president Azad has to validate the tests?
Kakodkar is a pure political person. There is no basis for us to take his word at its face value. He initially didn’t support Indo US civil nuclear pact and sided with BJP. However, he later retracted and started supporting the deal. We are still not clear about his U turn.
BJP needs to come out and explain the need to go nuclear in 1998 in a rush.
Credibility less scientific community is questioning the credibility of 1998 tests and our nuclear deterrence. I has a taxpayer ask and also seek the credibility of our nuclear establishment first before anything else. How come you are raring your heads now after a decade? Your salaries are being paid by us and not the political outfit that runs the government. You should be working for us and not for NDA or UPA.
