There has to be logic in the
propaganda. India Today portrays as if the entire Balochistan population is
affected by the 28 May 1998 Chagai nuclear tests radiation release. Then where
Kulbhushan and company have been working? Were they wearing gas masks during
their sabotage plots in the province? Didn’t such a getup expose their identity
at all anywhere? How stupidly India Today says the generations in Chagai and
elsewhere have “developed genetic abnormalities, because of the release of
radiation; the tests were done in haste. The radioactivity contaminated the
ground water, people are migrating and being treated as enemy; they are living
miserable life.”
Indian propagandist must know the tests were of the nukes, not nuts. It was not
done in haste though in response to India’s own 12 May tests. Pakistan was even
ready to go for nuclear tests in 1984, during the Zia regime. The selection of
site, deep digging of the hills, preparations for detonation, etc had been made
long before 1984. Besides, all kind of collateral damage, aftershocks, effects
and causes had already been evaluated and calculated. The rescue plans are said
to be still ready but the detonations were so sophisticated like that of the
highly upgraded technology Pakistan used that not a single individual of the
provincial population got affected what to talk of generations. Unlike Pakistan,
Bhopal’s Fukushima like nuclear tragedy is known to everyone. Frequent killing
of nuclear scientists across India speaks of the tales which the Indian
propagandists do not like to mention. There must be a method in the madness.
