Abstract

There is an abysmal degree of ignorance about the status of nuclear power in the country and what the Department of Atomic Energy (DAE) does, although in recent times anti-nuclear activists have been engaged in the herculean task of uncovering its programme and educating the public about this. This stems from the deliberate policy of secrecy and disinformation that the nuclear establishment maintains, helped in no small measure by a critical factor: DAE has been under the direct charge of the prime minister ever since it was set up in 1954 in the time of Jawaharlal Nehru who was a passionate proponent of atomic energy and its use as a nuclear deterrent if necessary.
