Why India Chose Pressurized Heavy Water Reactors:

[@akhripasta2670]

Because India was not allowed to purchase Uranium & related reactor materials for 34 years, a type of sanction by NSG

India successfully achieved all the goals of stage 2 of nuclear program on 5 march 2024

No country can stop india from growing

[@Sian-v2o]

Yes you're right no One can stop India from growing except India itself. Your lack of investment in education, roads and other infrastructure, and technology. Political abuses such as corruption and nepotism is on another level . Actually its Indians that are blocking their own growth. They are so good at it that you don't need anyone else. Keep going India your doing all right. Now you've lost your only friendly neighbour Bangladesh you should be all alone now.

Jai Hind, If we Indians can get the Stage 3 of our Heavy water breeder reactor right, India will enjoy limitless energy from our Thorium reserves for millennia to come.

Fast neutron reactors are not mandatory in a fuel cyle. It's possible to use plutonium produced from heavy water reactors, and add it to depleted uranium. It's far simpler.

[@Sian-v2o]

It's the radiation they are eliminating thus making power generation cheaper and safer.

Wazzup! 😊

India, lol, what could possibly go wrong.

[@Sian-v2o]

As far as the Indians are concerned everything can go wrong.

Maybe google IAEA reports on how stellar India's nuclear safety record is before you make such a fo0l out of yourself. Specifically the reports detailing Indian reactors review undertaken after the Fukushima disaster. The entire committee could only find one change to be made in one NPP raising the height of a particular auxiliary generator room. That was all. So not only is India's nuclear safety record impeccable, Indian reactors have been shown to not even require any changes in operations or infrastructure despite major reviews such as the one undertaken after the Fukushima disaster.
