India has a chequered history in safeguarding its nuclear stockpiles. Hindu extremists and Indian scientists have been involved in theft of nuclear material and in technology transfers between Israel and India. Stealing and selling enriched uranium has accelerated since 2005 and has now become a norm.
Ravindar Singh, a RAW agent, was caught selling nuclear secrets to other countries. Indian scientists also had a hand in the development of Iran's Bushehr plant. These untoward incidents when seen in context of the huge network of Hindu extremists, aligned with the Indian military, indulging in terrorism against religious minorities in India, to establish the Hindu Raj in India and the depraved role of RAW against all the neighbours of India, indicates the depth of malaise within Indian polity.
156 theft cases of uranium have been reported in India and registered with the Indian police since 1984. These statistics make the Indian nuclear programme most unsafe and a great danger to world security. Christopher Pine, a Nuclear Safety expert working with Natural Resource Council in Washington has branded India's nuclear safe-keeping practices as the worst, with the least safeguards in the whole world.
