Legendary leader and visionary Biju Patnaik Message of Shri S. C. Jamir His Excellency the Governor of Odisha On the Occasion of Odisha Day - 2013 I extend my warm greetings and good wishes to the people of Odisha on this historic occasion of Odisha Day. On this auspicious day of 1st April 1936 Odisha was formed as a separate province on linguistic basis. While observing this auspicious day of formation of Odisha State, we must remember the outstanding contributions of stalwarts who devoted their entire life for carving out a Separate State for Odia speaking people. In this regard we fervently remember great sons of Odisha like Utkal Gourav Madhusudan Das, Utkalmani Pandit Gopabandhu Das, Parala Maharaja Krushna Chandra Gajapati Narayan Dev, Maharaja Sriram Chandra Bhanja Deo, Vyasa Kabi Fakir Mohan Senapati, Swabhaba Kabi Gangadhar Meher, Pandit Godavarish Mishra, Kabibara Radhanath Ray, Pandit Nilakantha Das, Raja Rama Chandra Mardaraj and many others for their noble contribution. On this august occasion we the people of Odisha, pay our humble tribute to those pious souls who have given us a separate identity. Odisha is a land of many splendours with a rich cultural heritage and a glorious history. It has distinguished itself as an integral part of the Indian national mainstream during the struggle for Independence. The exquisite beauty of this land keeps the tourists from India and abroad spell-bound. Odisha’s maritime relation with South-East Asia in the past has been inscribed in golden letters in history. Its ancient monuments and sculptures form a glorious chapter of India’s heritage. This rich and diversified culture and heritage always make us feel proud and simultaneously inspire us to move ahead with time. There has been unprecedented development in Odisha during the years between 1936 and 2013. It has undergone a radical change in every sphere. Odisha has been able to achieve tremendous progress in the fields of agriculture, industries, education, health, IT, women empowerment and social security. With the passing of time the State Government has introduced a number of welfare schemes for the benefit of the common citizens. Recently a special budget for Agriculture has been presented with a view to bringing all-round development in agriculture and allied sectors and also to improve the wellbeing of the farmers. State Government has accorded utmost importance to development of the backward and rural areas of the State. In order to ensure this, programmes like Biju KBK Yojana, Biju Kandhamal ‘O’ Gajapati Yojana, Gopabandhu Grameen Yojana, Cement Concrete Road Scheme, Biju Gram Jyoti Yojana, Biju Setu Yojana etc. are being successfully implemented. Special emphasis has been laid on the socio-economic development of women. In this regard an innovative programme called Mission Shakti is being implemented in full swing. Financial assistance is being provided to the pregnant women through ‘Mamata’ scheme. Priority is accorded to the development of ST & SC communities through ITDA, TDCC, OSFDC & OTELP. The Government of Odisha has adopted a holistic and integrated approach for the welfare of ST boys and girls. Opening of new educational institutions such as Sevashramas, Ashrama Schools, High Schools has enabled them to have residential education. Government has also taken various measures to ensure food security to the poor and vulnerable sections of the society by making provisions of rice at Re.1/- per kg. and taking care of old and distressed persons through Madhubabu Pension Yojana. To provide various services in time-bound manner, Government of Odisha has introduced Odisha Right to Public Services Act, 2012 from January 2013. Odisha has vast natural resources as well as sincere, hard working and intelligent human resources. State Government has relentlessly endeavoured to transform our State into a prosperous one. I have no doubt that the State Government and the people of Odisha will continue to work with dedication and renewed vigour so that the process of development is further accelerated. Vande Utkal Janani. Message of Shri Naveen Patnaik Hon'ble Chief Minister of Odisha on the occasion of Odisha Day - 2013 Today is Odisha Day. It is the most significant day in the history of modern Odisha. On this occasion, I convey my best wishes and congratulations to all of you. On this auspicious occasion, I pay my deepest tributes to the great Odias like Utkal Gaurav Madhusudan Das, Utkalmani Pandit Gopabandhu Das, Parala Maharaja Krushna Chandra Gajapati Narayan Dev and Khallikote Rajasaheb Ramachandra Mardaraj Dev who endeavoured their entire life for formation of the separate province of Odisha. I also pay my reverence and homage to those luminaries who enriched Odia language, literature and culture as well as enhanced the glory of Odia language. The history of Odisha is illustrious. Rulers from the monarch Kharavela to Emperor Kapilendra Dev have been immortalised for their bravery and benevolent administration. The great poets and writers like Fakir Mohan Senapati, Kabi Samrat Upendra Bhanja, Gangadhar Meher and Gopinath Mohanty have glorified the Odia language by dint of their talents. Our dance, music, folk song, folk dance and tribal art have enriched Indian culture. Our weavers and artisans have been fostering the process of our culture through their creations. The years from 1936 to 2013 - Odisha has gained a lot of experiences during these 77 years. Odisha has achieved success in several spheres. In some sectors, Odisha is placed in better position than many other States. Today Odisha has become self-dependant in the field of food production. Infrastructure has improved. Literacy rate has gone up. Drop-out rate has come down. In eastern India, Odisha is all set to be a hub in the sphere of Higher Education. The Odias by virtue of their dexterity have enhanced the fame of the State in our country and abroad. The Odia literature continues to uphold its dignity. Odisha’s reputation in the field of sports has been augmented. Today our State economy has improved. From our own fund, we have implemented a number of schemes for the development and welfare of the common people. We have made a special budget for agriculture. Poverty has reduced. There is brisk economic activity in the State and new opportunities have been created for employment. Capital investment has been augmented in the industrial sector. Odisha’s importance in the fields of Tourism and IT has gone up. Odisha has also attained manifold progress in the field of social security. The Infant Mortality Rate and Maternal Mortality Rate have decreased. There has been improvement at nutrition level. We have also achieved success in the field of immunization. Today we have ensured Food Security for the poor people. The message of development has reached the villages. Today Bijli, Sadak and Pani are not merely a dream in the villages. Today the outcome of development has reached one and all. The talents of our artists, artisans and weavers have enhanced the glory of the State. The development and welfare programmes of the Government have infused confidence in the minds of our tribals, Dalits, poor, women, children, youths, old persons, farmers and workers. Today the Odia race, who built immortal monuments like Konark, Mukteswar and Rajarani Temples and created the immortal Poetry like Shree Geet Govind, has regained its self-confidence. This century belongs to Odisha.

    world nuclear forces 267 VI. Indian nuclear forces shannon n. kile and hans m. kristensen India is estimated to have a growing arsenal of 130–40 nuclear weapons (see table 6.7). This figure is based on calculations of India’s inventory of weapon-grade plutonium and the number of operational nuclear-capable delivery systems. India is widely believed to be gradually expanding the size of its nuclear weapon stockpile as well as its infrastructure for producing nuclear warheads. Military fissile material production India’s nuclear weapons are believed to be plutonium-based. The plutonium was produced at the Bhabha Atomic Research Centre (BARC) in Trombay, Mumbai, by the 40-megawatt-thermal (MW(t)) heavy water CIRUS reactor, which was shut down at the end of 2010, and the 100-MW(t) Dhruva heavy water reactor. India operates a plutonium reprocessing plant for military purposes at the BARC.1 India plans to build six fast breeder reactors by the 2030s, which will significantly increase its capacity to produce plutonium that could be used for building weapons.2 An unsafeguarded 500-megawatt-electric (MW(e)) prototype fast breeder reactor (PFBR) is being built at the Indira Gandhi Centre for Atomic Research (IGCAR) complex at Kalpakkam, Tamil Nadu. The PFBR is expected to be commissioned in mid-2018 following a series of technical delays.3 The IGCAR has announced that a fast reactor fuel cycle facility will be built at Kalpakkam to reprocess spent fuel from the PFBR and future fast breeder reactors. The plant is scheduled to be commissioned by 2022.4 India is currently expanding its uranium enrichment capabilities.
