Pokhran-II achieved 100 per cent desired results: Kakodkar

Indore, Aug 28 (PTI) Dismissing a top nuclear
scientist's contention that Pokharan II was not a complete
success, Atomic Energy Commission of India chief Anil Kakodkar
Friday said the tests in 1998 achieved "100 per cent desired
results".

Speaking at a function organised by the Raja Ramanna
Centre for Advanced Technology here, Kakodkar said, "Pokhran
II tests were a complete success and they achieve 100 per cent
desired results."

On Wednesday, Defence Research and Development
Organisation (DRDO) representative for Pokhran II K Santhanam
had said that India should not sign the Comprehensive Test Ban
Treaty (CTBT) as the country needed to carry out more tests
since the thermonuclear tests in 1998 had failed to produce
the desired results. PTI HWP
