INDIA’S PRIDE ‘CIRUS’ SHUTDOWN

REACTOR SHUT DOWN

THE CIRUS REACTOR WAS SHUT DOWN PERMANENTLY ON FRIDAY MIDNIGHT i.e. ON 31st DEC 2010.

THIS 40 MW REACTOR, OPERATING AT A CAPACITY FACTOR OF 50-80% WAS PRODUCING 6.5-10.5 Kg OF PLUTONIUM PER YEAR AND USED NATURAL URANIUM FUEL WHILE USING HEAVY-WATER(DEUTERIUM) AS A MODERATOR (a medium that reduces the speed of fast neutrons and turning them into thermal neutrons which are capable of sustaining a nuclear chain reaction) PLAYED AN IMPORTANT ROLE IN THE FIRST NUCLEAR TEST IN POKHRAN-I (codenamed SMILING BUDDHA) IN 1974.

THE FIRST NUCLEAR CHAIN REACTION (CRITICALITY) WAS ATTAINED ON 10th JULY 1960.

THE CIRUS (CANADA INDIA REACTOR UTILITY SERVICES) WAS AN ICONIC SYMBOL OF INDIA’S INDIGENOUS NUCLEAR POWER PROGRAMME FOR CIVIL AND MILITARY. THE PLUTONIUM FROM ITS SPENT FUEL WAS USED AS A PART OF STRATEGIC NUCLEAR POWER PROGRAMME OF THE DEPARTMENT OF ATOMIC ENERGY. THE BARC (BHABHA ATOMIC RESEARCH CENTRE) MAINTAINS THAT URANIUM FUEL WHICH IT PROCURED INDEGENOUSLY HAS BEEN FULLY UTILISED BY SLOWLY DRAINING OUT OF HEAVY WATER IN THE MODERATOR. HOWEVER, THE PUMPS STILL CONTINUE TO RUN TO REMOVE THE DECAY HEAT AND ALL OTHER PROCESSES TO REMOVE THE RESIDUAL HEAT FROM THE CORE FO THE REACTOR WILL BE KEPT OPERATIONAL FOR SOME MORE TIME, PROBABLY UPTO ONE YEAR. AFTER DECONTAMINATION, THE REACTOR WILL NOT BE DEOMMISSIONED AND WILL BE USED FOR STUDENTS’ TRAINING. ALSO A PLAN TO CONVERT IT INTO A NEUTRON PRODUCING SYSTEM FOR SUB-CRITICAL EXPERIMENTS IS ON THE ANVIL. THIS FIFTY YEAR OLD NUCLEAR REACTOR, COULD HAVE LIVED FOR TWENTY MORE YEARS, WAS SHUT DOWN IN SEPTEMBER 1997, REFURBISHED, AND RESUMED IN 2005(SCHEDULED TO RESUME IN 2003), BEFORE PERMANENTLY SHUTTING IT DOWN.

NOSTALGIC RBI MOVE

NOSTALGIC RBI MOVE

AN ICONIC DECISION BY THE GOVERNMENT OF INDIA MAY HURT MANY SENTIMENTS FROM JUNE THE 30th, 2011.

THE COINS OF VALUE DENOMINATION 1-(ONE) PAISE, 2-(TWO) PAISE, 3-(THREE) PAISE, 5-(FIVE) PAISE, 10-(TEN) PAISE, 20(TWENTY) PAISE AND 25(TWENTY-FIVE) PAISE WILL NO LONGER BE A VALID DENOMINATION.

EVEN THOUGH THESE COINS VANISHED LONG TIME AGO, WHATEVER COINS WERE MINTED AND WERE IN CIRCULATION WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED IN TRANSACTIONS. THE MINTING OF THESE COINS WAS STOPPED BECAUSE; THE COST OF MINTING THEM WAS MORE THAN THEIR FACE VALUE. NOW THE GOVERNMENT OF INDIA HAS DECIDED TO WITHDRAW THEM FROM CIRCULATION ALTOGETHER AND WILL CEASE TO BE A LEGAL TENDER IN THE COUNTRY AND THE MINIMUM DENOMINATION COIN THAT WILL BE ACCEPTED AS A LEAGL TRANSACTION WILL BE 50-(FIFTY) PAISE COIN. ALSO THESE DENOMINATIONS (1,2,3,5,10,20,25 PAISE) WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED FOR PAYEMNT ON ACCOUNT i.e. THE ENTRIES IN BOOKS OF ACCOUNTS, PRICING OF PRODUCTS, TAXES, SERVICES ETC. WILL BE ROUNDED OFF TO FIFTY PAISE OR WHOLE RUPEE FROM THE DATE THE PROCEDURE FOR CALL-IN WOULD BE NOTOFIED BY THE RBI. THE FINANCE MINISTRY HAS REALLY WIPED OUT WHATEVER LITTLE VALUE THESE COINS HAD. NOW NOBODY CAN CALL AS ‘CHAVANNI CHAAP’; AS THIS WILL ALSO BECOME HISTORY.

WELCOME 2011

WELCOME-2011

GREETINGS

I WHOLE HEARTEDLY WISH TO ALL THE READERS OF MY BLOG A VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR 2011.

ANOTHER YEAR AND ANOTHER CHANCE TO GIVE A NEW START TO OUR LIVES. THIS TIME LEAP OVER OLD BARRIERS TO HAVE A REAL BREAKTHROUGH.
MAY GOD BLESS US ALL WITH A LOT OF HAPPINESS, JOY, PROSPERITY, SUCCESS, AND ABOVE ALL PEACE (WHICH ENTIRE MANKIND IS IN SEARCH OF).
THE WORDS BRIGHT, BLISSFULL, MINDBLOWING, TERRIFIC, EXTREMELY, GREAT HAS NO MEANING, IF THERE IS NO PEACE.

THE YEAR 2011 IS UNIQUE IN MANY WAYS. LOOK OUT HERE :-

1-1-11, 11-1-11, 1-11-11, 11-11-11, 9-10-11, 13-12-11, 7-9-11, 5-8-11, 3-7-11, 1-6-11.

AND WHAT MORE, THIS YEAR IS A REPEATITION OF YEAR 2005—WATCH THE DAYS AND DATES MATCH EXACTLY.
EARLIER A ONE NUMBER IN ITS DATE MONTH AND YEAR WAS 4 TIMES IN 2001, WHEREAS IT IS 6 TIMES IN 2011. THIS COMBINATION OF DATE MONTH AND YEAR COMES ONCE IN A CENTURY. NEXT TIME IT WILL BE AFTER 100 YEARS IN 2111. THIS IS THE UNIQUENESS OF THE YEAR 2011.
