India nuclear plant leaks!!

[Spring Onion]

such problems have been the norm in many Indian nuclear plants.

 

[naseebkhanniazi]

Brothers, to be on the serious node,

its genuine concern for pakistan because we live very close to india and nuclear incident can affect us all irrespective of our national identity.

I think its a wakeup call for india to look into the areas of weakness in its programme and strengthen its system of internal control.

Brother Xinix, every system seems falwless unless untill it proves us wrong, and this is what happened in karnatka plant, and the statement of the indian offical clearly mentions the possibility of infiltration or mal-intention of someone from inside.

I want to make a request to the indian govt. not to put it on pakistan like always and try to figure out the enemy which want to capitalize on the enemity between the two countries and put our existance to threat. it might be someone who tried in samjhota express incident or gujrat riots etc.

i just add this

Mods: There exists another thread here on the similar topic: http://www.defence.pk/forums/india-defence/40203-nuclear-panic-kaiga-indias-nuclear-plants-safe.html. Please merge the two threads if possible. Thanks.

Thanks for twisting the title of thread. I hope you know the difference between power plant and Nuclear bomb. However I have always supported Pakistan on safety of its nuclear weapons. I thought a think tank member will do better.

Twisting??!!

i just copy pasted the BBC title! (less the investigation part). Chill, i know it hurts.

Nuclear power plants routinely and accidentally release tritium into the air and water as a gas (HT) or as water (HTO or 3HOH). No economically feasible technology exists to filter tritium from a nuclear power plant’s gaseous and liquid emissions to the environment. Therefore, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission does not require that it be filtered. Source: ROUTINE RADIOACTIVE RELEASES FROM NUCLEAR REACTORS - IT DOESN’T TAKE AN ACCIDENT - NIRS

As it is already found out, it was an act of mischief and those found responsible will be sentences accordingly. There is no need for the involvement of IAEA. Sometimes there are matters that are purely scientific and have nothing to do with politics; such matters must be understood and handled accordingly.

Thanks for the expert opinion.

But even if it was something deliberate, doesnt it speak high of the indian nuclear impregnability/safety?!

Xeric you are comparing a heavy water leak to the safety of the nuke bombs..A think tank like you should know the difference between these two and also who controls a nuclear bombs and a civilian nuclear facility..Is it your ignorance or a deliberate attempt to hide facts to make a cheap shot against India??

Please refer to my post#13. Having said that, I am not totally ruling out the impregnability/safety issue but as the old saying goes "If you hear hoof beats, think horses—not zebras".

we have a saying in Pashto.

Chatray de che kunay kay wee ma yey kullawawa.

(If you have an umbrella embedded in your butt, never open it.)


i.e. don't make smaller problems into HUGE problems, or things will get worse.



i'm noticing that indians are getting on the defensive here lately, at times showing rude attitude to even the senior members. You did your part and shared the article, they are throwing tantrums

Try shaving with Occam's Razor.

However I doff my hat to your ingenious equation:

Nuclear Power Plant = Nuclear Warhead.

im very happy this happened....

just recently india's mr. singh was stating his concerns about Pakistan's (thus far flawless) nuclear safety record.


hilarious....

You r happy that People were sick?
Really? How can any one be happy if some people get SICK in pakistan or any part of world?

Regarding Safety... How safe can u be if some one dissolves poison in ur University water cooler ? Plz Read what EXACTLY Happened.

I am a STRONG supporter of Islamic Preachings, They are so Idealistic :

The holy Prophet of Islam (SAW) says "Every Muslim who visits a sick person is absorbed in Allah's blessings and during the time he is seated by him he sits in the middle of Divine mercy. If he visits the sick man in the morning, seventy thousand angels pray for him till evening and if he visits him in the evening, seventy thousand angels pray for him till morning."

Behaar al-Anwar, Vol. 18, pp.146

Islam orders that when you visit the sick you should ask about their health and pray for them because it is possible that by this their hearts may be comforted.

The Holy Prophet (SAW) says, "Visit the sick and attend the funerals of the dead so that you may remember the next world. Pray for the sick person and say: "O Allah! Cure him with your cure and treat him with your medicine and keep him safe from your calamity."

When you visit a sick person take with you a present for him, although it may be very small. The holy Prophet (SAW) says, "Whoever will feed a sick person Allah will give him the fruit of Paradise."

Behaar al-Anwar, Vol. 18, pp. 145

I think MODs have merged two threads so some of the members on this thread might have missed my post there, therefore, i am posting it here to clear things out...

I know there will be a thorough investigation into this... but regards the concern for safety there have been some people comparing security concerns against an Nuclear "Power Plant" vs Nuclear "Weapons".... Lets not get paranoid about comparing the security for these two.... Agree that there should be fool proof measures in maintaining safety at any facility which is dealing with radioactive materials... but one concerns Power Production and the other Nuclear Terrorism.

I know it sounds kind of demented. But i'll be honest with you, Yes i am.

It proves a point to your prime minister who only a few days ago was getting a bit mouthy about Pakistani nuclear safety.


i think this incident was a nice slap in the face. Timing couldnt have been better.

How can any one be happy if some people get SICK in pakistan or any part of world?

it's wrong.....but in this case, it is too convenient and symbollic to ignore. I'm being honest!

Regarding Safety... How safe can u be if some one dissolves poison in ur University water cooler ?

if i came to know about it, i wouldn't be amused!

I think india should be more careful about the people they hire to work in their nuclear facilities. This is most alarming for the people of Pakistan.

We will be happy to send consultants and provide advice to indians on how to effectively safe guard its nuclear installations

 

[Chanakyaa]

I want to share an experiance at Narora Plant .
The Canteen where majority of people eat and have refreshments is in a separate building than the plant itself.

How is it Justified to call it a "leak" when plant is all together separate from the canteen ?
There was NO MISHAP IN REACTOR BUILDING.

Yes, The major issue is how and with what intentions did the Tritium accessed and used.

No, he is not happy because people got sick but because what happened negates what GOI claims about the safety of her nuclear facilities. At any rate, as I mentioned in my earlier post (#43) of Sodium Azide contamination of coffee maker at Harvard, if some worker goes nuts, no security can stop a catastrophe from happening. This is where the security screening of personnel and personnel counseling come into play, and allow me to say that if that really is the case of a foul play, than the Indian Atomic Energy Commission has to look back into her personnel security screening protocols as well as personnel counseling. Although it is pure speculation but it is possible that some worker (maybe a janitor or maybe a scientist) got pissed off by the harsh and insulting treatment from his superior and went bezerk and contaminated the water cooler with the tritium. Anyway, undesirable they maybe, but unfortunately such things happen and happen in every part of the world. Associating India with such incidents will be a bit of access in my opinion.
