From Bhupen Goswami
GUWAHATI : Large reserves of uranium have been discovered on the discovery of the Atomic Minerals Directorate in the northeastern state of Arunachal Pradesh. With this, the Atomic Minerals Directorate of the Government of India is exploring with the entire team. The Chinese government has become angry after the news was published in international media. China is part of China, “said a Chinese official spokesman. The Government of India has no right to explore uranium. A spokesman for the Directorate of Atomic Minerals and Research, Government of India said today that it did not offend the Chinese government.
Our country will always have our right in our law and our property. However, the Atomic Minerals Directorate has undertaken the exploration of uranium in Arunachal Pradesh for exploration and research. AMD is a constituent unit of the Department of Atomic Energy (DAE). MADM Director DK Sinha told reporters that the agency is conducting a detailed geological investigation for uranium in parts of Arunachal Pradesh. Uranium is used as fuel in nuclear reactors.
Amd was responding to a report on the discovery of uranium in the north-eastern state near the Indo-China border. Sinha said that AMD has the right to identify and evaluate the rare resources of uranium, thorium, zirconium, titanium and others and rare earths containing uranium and thorium in the country’s potential geological domain. To implement its mandate for identification and evaluation of uranium resources, AMD conducts investigations across the country from regional exploration and research centres located in New Delhi, Bengaluru, Jamshedpur, Shillong, Jaipur, Nagpur and Hyderabad. Arunachal Pradesh BJP spokesman Dominic Tadar told the reporter, “We are doing something on our land within our state and if China speaks on it, it is wrong.
We do not recognise such reactions at all. In Shi-Yomi district of Arunachal Pradesh, where uranium reserves are being explored, it is the district of our state. Shi-Yomi is a part of India and Arunachal Pradesh. “Shi-Yomi district is within our state of Arunachal Pradesh,” says BJP spokesperson Tadar. China has always been talking like this. Whenever we do some work in Arunachal Pradesh, the Prime Minister and the President of the country come here, the Chinese government and the people there are not able to tolerate it. China should abandon the bad habits of giving such a response. In fact, the Chinese government, in a news report on the detection of uranium reserves in Arunachal Pradesh published on Wednesday, expressed disappointment that India’s uranium exploration programme was illegal. The Chinese government said, “Chinese experts have blamed the Indian media for sensational coverage on India’s illegal discovery of uranium in south Tibet. This reflects India’s stubborn position of occupying China’s territory.
