Pakistan far better than India in civil nuclear technology, says Chairman PAEC

ISLAMABAD: Chairman Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission Dr. Ansar Pervez in unequivocal terms has said Pakistan is far better then India in civil nuclear technology, adding that, under construction Chashma Nuclear Power Plant II (CHASNUPP-2) would be functionalized by 2001.

Talking to media men after workshop on "welding science", he said, Pakistan has infrastructure and effective system to run nuclear power plant. Pakistan had got the civil nuclear technology in 1970 and we are manufacturing fuel and surpluses parts of atomic power plants themselves, he said.

He hoped more development would be done in the field after functionalizing of Chashma Nuclear Power Plant II.

Replying to a question, he said, Chashma Nuclear Power Plant II located at Kundian and the site is situated next to Chashma Nuclear Power Plant Unit-1 would start generating 340 mega watt electricity by 2011 and it would also inject 315 megawatt electricity to national grid.

Replying to a question, he said, it is not possible for any country to give a nuclear power plant to country, which has not necessary infrastructure. There are so many countries in world who is eager to get power plant but Pakistan has infrastructure and effective system to run nuclear power plant, he said.

We are running civil nuclear power plant for last 40 years and we are also running Chinese nuclear power plant safely, he said.
