Anti-nuke protestors seek support of international community [1]

Commissioning of first unit of KNPP was scheduled for Dec last yr but has been delayed due to year-long protests

Seeking to take their campaign against Kudankulam Nuclear Power Plant to a global level, anti nuclear activists today sought support of the international community in their efforts to scrap the project and make the world 'nuclear free'. In a letter to various Foreign Missions in New Delhi and here, People's Movement Against Nuclear Energy (PMANE) said though global nuclear industry tries to promote nuclear power as the answer to global warming and climate destruction, the global community knows for sure that "poisoned Earth with nuclear waste cannot be the answer for polluted air".
