Question

Whose Development ?
If, even the idea of what
constitutes development can be
varied and conflicting, then
certainly there can be many
differences about ways in which
developoment happens. The
ongoing protest over the
Kudankulam Nuclear Power
Project in the Tirunelveli district
Fig 2.3: Protest at Kudankulam Nuclear Power Project of Tamil Nadu is one such
conflict. The government of
India set up the nuclear power plant in this quiet coastal town of fisher folks. The aim
is to generate nuclear power to meet the growing energy needs of the country. The
people in the region have protested on the grounds of safety, security and livelihood.
A long struggle has ensued. Scientists, environmentalists, social activists who have
been critical of the project, have stood by the people and supported their protest.
Letters of protests to the government state "You are unable or unwilling to
appreciate that in nuclear energy, we are confronted not only with an immense power,
but also an incredible potential for destruction.
We want our coast and country protected from the radioactive peril. Stop the
project. Look to renewable energy as an alternative." The government has responded
that the plant has followed all the safety measures and, despite protests, is going
ahead with the project. Nuclear energy is considered as a clean source of energy and
alternative energy sources may not be sufficient to meet the demands.
