Results and Aftermath
The need to improve and perfect the design of first nuclear device required constant testing. As a result, between 1983 and 1990, the Wah Group Scientists conducted more than 24 cold tests of the nuclear device at Kirana Hills with the help of mobile diagnostic equipment. These tests were carried out in 24 horizontal-shaft designated weapon-testing laboratories measuring 100–150 feet in length which were bored inside the Kirana Hills. Later due to excessive US intelligence and satellite focus on the Kirana Hills regions, it was abandoned and the WTL-I was shifted to the Kala Chitta Range.
