The mighty 90,000 tonne aircraft carrier USS Nimitz will be docking at the Southern Indian city of Chennai early next month as part of a joint defense exercise. Following the news local politicians made a huge outcry fearing that the Nimitz might be carrying nuclear weapons and also because they thought that radiation from the 23 storey tall ship's nuclear reactor might affect the locals. The Nimitz was given clearance after the defense department confirmed that it was not carrying any nuclear weapons. Even after this a few nuclear scientists had to explain the politicians that docking a nuclear powered vessel will affect the local populations.

I guess politicians are the same everywhere.
