I am writing to bring to your attention some of the fears and concerns I have for the future. Fissionable material for nuclear power stations is not safe to transport or work with. It is highly toxic and the waste products from a nuclear power station are not safe to store or dispose of for a very long period of time. Accidents happen, and the cost of an accident within a nuclear power plant, or in transporting materials to or from a nuclear power plant, has been catastrophic every time it has occurred. Renewable energy is a much safer option and a more appropriate technology. In a country like India, it will serve the purpose of grassroots development better than a centralised option like nuclear energy. As my representative, I respectfully urge you to do all that is in your power to diminish the presence of the nuclear industry in this country. I request that you make all efforts to promote safer alternatives.
