The reactor is cooled by an inert, fireproof gas, so it cannot have a steam explosion as a light-water reactor can.
From the en.wikipedia.org
The reactor was graphite moderated and water cooled.
From the en.wikipedia.org
It is a tank-type 6 MW reactor that is moderated and cooled by light water and uses heavy water as a reflector.

Even if India is now going forward with a water cooled thorium reactor it is a long way from developing anything truly functional.
From the guardian.co.uk
Initial designs by the Metallurgical Laboratory and DuPont used helium for cooling, before they determined that a water-cooled reactor would be simpler, cheaper and quicker to build.
From the en.wikipedia.org
A boiling water reactor is cooled and moderated by water like a PWR, but at a lower pressure, which allows the water to boil inside the pressure vessel producing the steam that runs the turbines.
