Three Arrested With Suspected Uranium in Mumbai

Could it be a probability that it is coming from Pakistan just as you stated.

Indian nuclear weapons are based on plutonium whereas Pakistan's nuclear weapons are based on uranium. Hmm. Makes one wonder, right?

Lolz....

And you think plutonium has nothing to do with uranium?

You mean plutonium would just fall from havens and india has no uranium at all!!

Do you how plutonium is made?
 
.
eh.. 3 guys caught with uranium .. some dudes so good they got hold of uranium brought it all the way to mumbai AND Indian law enforcement caught them lol !they cant even catch regular terrorist i don know who is buying this story certainly not me ""

Plutonium and Uranium are not made. Plutonium is a derivative from Uranium. India's first nuclear weapon exploded in 1974 were also of Plutonium as was also the case of ones exploded in 1998, wheras Pakistan's nuclear weapons were primarily of Uranium origin.

Not just India, many countries have suspicion on security of Pakistan's nuclear weapon facility. AQ Khan is known to be selling weapon design in Dubai. He himself has alleged that he got raw Uranium from China for making weapons. That can be just one of probabilities and locations where these guys might have acquired it.

I am far more confident about India's nuclear weapon storage facility than I would be about the Pakistanis. Also, as we know, during breakup of USSR, lot of things had gone missing probably that is was what was surfacing.

We dont know anything more yet! But before jumping on the gun, let us be sure that it is infact substance of some value.

you have senior nuclear scientists being kidnapped and dumped face-first in swamps....you have staff who (i assume are of some security clearance) are poisoning the water of other nuclear workers......you have people managing to steal computer and electronic components from atomic stations


these are all sites that should be under heavy security, yet you are having breach after breach!


so any talk of "suspicions on security of Pakistan's nuclear weapon facility" are clearly "mis-routed"

;)

Agreed Abu! But wait, all news are published in Indian news and government itself has reported it right? Let us wait to hear more on this.

Well now you know it.

You talked earlier as if as Water if to Fire ~ Plutonium is to Uranium!!

Yes sir,where you find Plutonium, you oughta find Uranium!

India's first nuclear weapon exploded in 1974 were also of Plutonium as was also the case of ones exploded in 1998, wheras Pakistan's nuclear weapons were primarily of Uranium origin.

Duh..!!

What this has to do with the thread?!

And what AQ's proliferation scene has to do exactly with our security?

Dont talk about us, talk about yourself, it's your day. :)

worthy of mention

[W]ith the passage of time, the eastern region of India emerged as the most disturbed, fragile and ungovernable region of the country with a variety of insurgency movements including that of Naxal rebels, emerging in that very part of the country.

According to a map, graphed by India’s own security agencies, the eastern region and some other parts of the country have been declared as “ The Red Corridor” of India due to being unstable,ungovernable and being highly fragile, security wise. According this “Red Corridor” map, there are some 51 districts that are very badly hit by the rebels while the total number of rebel struck districts remains around 164, ranging from Dehradhun to Kerala.

The Daily Mail’s investigations indicate that most of India’s top nuclear and missile facilities are located in the extremely Nexal terrorists struck districts of India, located deep down in the “Red Corridor”. According to The Daily Mail’s investigations, in the direction of Indian nuclear facilities, Uranium processing plant by the name of Uranium Corporation Of India Limited (UCIL) is located in adversely insurgency and terror struck region of Jharkhand where Nexal guerrillas are dominating and are on the rampage, Talcher Heavy Water Plant again in the same area, Institute of Physics(IOP) again in the same area while Atomic Minerals Directorate for Exploration and Research(AMD), Ceramatic Fuel Fabrication Facility(CFFF), Electronics Corporation of India Limited(ECIL), Mishra Dhalu Nigam Limited(MIDHANI), National Centre for Compositional Characterization of Materials(NCCCM), New Zirconium Sponge Plant(New ZSP), Nuclear Fuel Complex(NFC), Special Materials Plant, Uranium Fuel Assembly Plant and Zirconium Fabrication Plant, Seha Institute of Nuclear Physics and Variable Energy Cyclotron Centre(VECC) are located in the most Nexal warriors hit areas of Orissa, Andhra Pradesh and West Bengal. Similarly, Fast Breeder Test Reactor(FBTR), Fast Reactor Fuel Reprocessing Plant (FRFRP) General Services Organization(GSO), Indira Gandhi Centre for Atomic Research(IGCAR), Kalpakkam Atomic Reprocessing Plant(KARP), Kamini Research Reactor, Madres Atomic Power Station (MAPS), Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor(PFBR), Manuguru Heavy Water Plant, Institute of Mathematical Sciences(MSc), Southern Petrochemical Industries Corporation Limited(SPIC), Tuticorin Heavy Water Plant, Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited(BHEL), HMT Machine Tools Limited(HMT-MTL), Indian Institutes of Sciences(IISc) and Super Computer Education and Research Centre(SERC) are located in the areas.

Indian government has included in the most disturbed Red Corridor while Apsra Research Reactor, Bhabha Atomic Research Centre(BARC), Boron Enrichment Plant(BEP), Central Workshops, Plutonium Reprocessing Plant, Purnima 1,II & III Research Reactors, Uranium Conversion Plant, Uranium Enrichment Plant, CIRUS Research Reactor, Dhruva Research Reactor, Hazira heavy Water Plant, Larson and Toubro, Hazira Water Works, Advanced Fuel Fabrication Facility(AFFF), Tarapur Atomic Power Station(TAPS), Power Reactor Fuel Reprocessing Plant(PREFRE), Beryllium Matching Facility(BMF), Construction Service and Estate Management Group(CSEMG), Directorate of Purchase and Stores(DPS), Heavy Water Board, Tata Institute of Fundamental search(TIFR), Rshtrya Chemicals & Fertilizers (RCF), Thal-Vaishet Heavy Water Plant, Centre for Development of Advanced Computing(C-DAC), Kiroskar Brothers Limited and Walchandnagar Industries Limited(WIL) are located in State of Maharashtra, which, though, is not included in the Red Corridor map of India, yet the whole world knows that Maharashtra is the hub of Extremist Hindu Militant Groups where Hindutva Brotherhood, Shiv Sena, Bajrang Dal, Durga Vahini and Sangh Parivar like terrorist organizations are on the rampage for past many years, without any check from authorities and all these Hindu militant organizations are very well known for their extreme anti-Pakistan policies and are full capable of getting hold of any of the Indian nuclear facility that exists in their respective state and region.

Why Abu? Why ? Here you again!

I thought your thread Telagana breakup story for which you had apoligized for having misleading title was bad enough.

Now you are talking poor Naxals (tribes) and comparing to TTP like group. There is no religion like craziness ( what I mean is with religion some people justify any action) and hardly any material support. One has ground force which is attacking PA head-on with RPGs, other is fighting the state police at times with vintage rifles, one kills 2000 people a day while other kills 2000 people an year.

Will let you know when we will have AQ Khan like leader, ISI like intelligence agency and TTP like fighting force, till then :wave:
 
.
well, naxals are also engaging in sabotage, killing public officials, bombing schools, killing innocents, killing police, and smuggling explosives


so i fail to see the difference.....20 of 28 states have medium to strong naxal presence!!!!


AQ Khan, ISI, and Telagana have no relevance here. Thanks for your useless post.

Sorry to dissappoint u mate but here are some valid points

1) three persons have been arrested on charges of illegal possession of five kgs of "depleted uranium" (DU)
DU is useful because of its very high density of 19.1 g/cm3. Civilian uses include counterweights in aircraft, radiation shielding in medical radiation therapy and industrial radiography equipment, and containers used to transport radioactive materials.

2)Report also said that the source of DU --whether from industry or from a reactor --- can be easily determined.

3)Confirming the seized material as DU, Atomic Energy Regulatory Board Secretary Dr Ompal Singh said it, however, did not pose any radiological hazard or security threat as percentage of fissionable U-235 isotope in DU was very minute

Media hype are created on both sides,It dependes how maturally u gulp the news :cheers:

Three arrested with suspected Uranium in Mumbai

Is depleted uranium available at indian super-markets and convenience stores

:hitwall:

Very big difference between them
1) They are not asking rest of the country to change.
2) They are not as sophisticated as TTP (not even 1/4th).
3) They have hardly attacked public, (they have mostly kidnapped police officials and blown railway tracks). In some cases they have attacked police parties.
4) They remain in their area and hardly come out to attack in cities.
5) They do not have a religious agenda.
6) They do not have suicide bomber

I am not their supporter, but they do have some legitimate concern.
India has so far hardly made a genuine effort to tackle this menace(as local politicians support them), Chidmabarm for the first has time is trying to convince CM's and planning to take collective action.

They will soon disappear in few years.

One last thing we are total 28 states and they are not all over for sure.

Numerous sources, most likely industrial. Especially those in medical equipment industry, manufacturing shields for use in X-ray rooms or radiography equipment - wholly civilian areas. Those imho would be the most likely sources.

See what ?

uranium looking substabce?

Yeah and this is exactly why it was sent to Bhaba Atomic Research labs.

Could it be a probability that it is coming from Pakistan just as you stated.

Why should i believe you? does having plutonium bomb justify illegal uranium trade of india?

Have sanctions been imposed on India ? I guess nuclear deal is already up for toss :angel:

Unfortunately.... international media seems to be only one directional!
Pakistani president care less as compare to indian! if Pakistan don't care than who else care?

A lot of times these news fizzle out with no substance in it. Lets wait.
I would say lot of time news does not fizzel out. only 1% news trickel out.

^^^^^^^^^^^

I agree....Media sensalization or truth we need to wait and see....However if true this is grave
Are you seriouis? it is hard to dig this news, despite the fact that all security agencies of india were present at the crime scene.
what are you waiting for now? test report from bhaba atomic lab? or more bomb blast in Pakistan to divert any potential media attention?
