Safety and Capacity of
Nuclear Power Plant
Ø The
current installed nuclear power capacity in the country is 4780 MW comprising
twenty nuclear power reactors.
Ø The
XII Five Year Plan proposals envisage start of work on 19 nuclear power
reactors with a capacity of 17400 MW.
Ø There
are seven nuclear power reactors, with a capacity of 5300 MW, under
construction.
v Safety
is accorded utmost importance in all phases of nuclear power plants from
siting, design, construction, commissioning, operation & maintenance and
eventual decommissioning. The standards
of safety followed in India are consistent with the best practices followed in
the world. The nuclear power plant sites
are evaluated in accordance with the criteria as laid down in the regulatory
codes. The nuclear power plants are
designed using defence-in-depth approach based on well defined principles of
redundancy and diversity. The
construction is carried out to meet the highest safety and quality
standards. The operation of nuclear
power plants is carried out in accordance with laid down procedures approved by
the regulatory authority by trained personnel duly licensed by the Atomic
Energy Regulatory Board (AERB). There is
a robust regulatory mechanism in place for enforcement of safety in all
activities right from initial siting to decommissioning of nuclear power
plants. This is what the Govt. Say!!

Self Reliance in Printing

Ø Now
we can mint our currency on our own
Ø Total
requirement= 17600 million pieces of Bank Notes of various denominations
Ø These
are minted by Bhartiya Reserve Bank Note Mudran Pvt. Ltd. (Mysore, Salboni) And
Security Printing and Minting Corporation of India Ltd. (Dewas and Nasik)

Why India want to be
self-sufficient when it can just simply outsource the job:
Influx
of fake currency from across the border is a separate issue and has no
relevance to the printing of currency in the country. There is no confirmed
estimate of fake currency within the country
However,
to address the menace of Fake Indian Currency Notes (FICN), several agencies of
Centre and States are working in tandem to thwart the nefarious activity
related to FICN. Ministry of Home Affairs hass constituted Fake Indian Currency
Notes Coordination Centre (FCORD) to periodically review the activities of various
agencies
