Manipal (Karnataka): former Atomic Energy Commission chairman Anil Kakodkar on Saturday termed the agitation against Kudankulam Nuclear Power Plant as "unfortunate".
Kakodkar asked the protestors not to link the issue with Fukushima Nuclear disaster in Japan.
"To link Kudankulam plant controversy to Fukushima is uncalled for. It was tsunami which destroyed Fukushima nuclear plant, not technical glitches in reactors," Kakodkar said.
Addressing the gathering after inaugurating Innovation Centre and Manipal University Technology Business Incubator, he asked the agitators not to panic over safety issues and said the KNPP had state-of-the-art features and was a great boon to the future generation.
