An appeal from greenyatra: The government is going to import untested nuclear reactors from the French nuclear corporation Areva. Areva has a dirty track record of nuclear contamination in the countries where their plants were functional like the La Hague facility in Europe.

Moreover, the location for this reactor is on a high earthquake zone which has been ignored by the environmental impact assessment. The only request is to put the people safety first and personal interest second.The only concern from greenyatra is that these nuclear reactors tobe tested and there should be a proper environmental impact assessment tobe conducted.
