Islamabad, Aug 10 (Inditop.com) Pakistan Monday claimed its civilian nuclear technology was better than India’s.
Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission Chairman Ansar Pervez made the claim while speaking to reporters on the sidelines of a seminar here, Online news agency reported.
Pakistan had the infrastructure and effective systems to run nuclear power plants, he said, adding the country had received civil nuclear technology from China in 1970 and was itself manufacturing fuel and parts of atomic power plants.
Speaking about the future, Pervez said the under-construction Chashma Nuclear Power Plant II (CHASNUPP-2) would be functionalised by 2010 and would start generating 340 MW of electricity by 2011. Of this, 315 MW would be fed into the national grid.
