Don’t link Fukushima disaster with Kudakulam row: Kakodkar via IBN Live

Manipal (Karnataka), Nov 12 (PTI) Terming the agitation against Koodankulam Nuclear Power Plant as “unfortunate”, former Atomic Energy Commission Chairman Anil Kakodkar today asked the protestors not to link the issue with Fukushima Nuclear disaster in Japan. “To link Koodankulam Plant controversy to Fukushima is uncalled for. It was Tsunami which destroyed Fukushima nuclear plant, not technical glitches in reactors,” Kakodkar said. Addressing the gathering after inaugurating Innovation Centre and Manipal University Technology Business Incubator at Manipal University here, he asked the agitators not to panic over safety issues and said the KNPP had state-of-the-art features and was a great boon to the future generation.
