Department of Atomic Energy DEPARTMENT OF ATOMIC ENERGY The vision of the Department of Atomic Energy (DAE) is to empower India through application of nuclear science and technology, and to provide better quality of life to its citizens. During the period from May, 2014 till December 31, 2014, the programmes of the Department achieved impressive growth in various segments and domains. These are described below. In Nuclear Power generation,Unit 1 of the Kudankulam Nuclear Power Project-1 (KKNPP-1) of 1000 MWe commenced commercial operation on December 31, 2014. With this, the total number of operating power reactors is 20 with an installed capacity of 5680MWe. The second Unit, KKNPP – 2 is also in advanced stage of commissioning. During the calendar year 2014 the highest ever generation of 37146 MUs was recorded which is 10% higher than last year's generation. The Rajasthan Atomic Power Station (RAPS)-5 recorded a continuous run of 765 days which is the best in Asia and the second best in the world. Consent of the Haryana State Pollution Control Board (HSPCB) was obtained in October 2014 to establish the Gorakhpur AnuVidyutPariyojanaHarayana (GHAVP) Units-1&2 (2x700 MWe PHWRs). In the area of uranium exploration, over 16,535 tonnes of additional Uranium Oxide (U3O8) reserves have been established in Andhra Pradesh, Meghalaya and Jharkhand during the year thus taking the country's uranium resources to over 2, 14,158 tonnes of U3O8. The Tummalapalle uranium project is readying for commissioning in 2015-16. The mine has achieved the desired ore production capacity and adequate ore has been stockpiled. Heavy Water production during the financial year 2014-15 was more than 104% of the target. The Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor (PFBR) being constructed at Kalpakkam in Tamilnadu is nearing completion and is expected to be operational this year. The entire quantity of enriched Boron for the 1st core of the PFBR has been successfully prepared. With this,India has found place in the few handful countries possessing such capability. DAE has been playing a significant role in the development and applications of various radioisotopes and radiation technologies in healthcare, industry, agriculture and research. India is one of the leading countries in the isotope technology today. In Nuclear Medicine and Healthcare, more than 23,000 consignments of ready to use radiopharmaceuticals for diagnosis and therapy of thyroid disorders, neuroendocrine cancers, bone pain palliation were supplied to various nuclear medicine centres and hospitals all over India. Over 2, 08,245 in-vivo diagnostic investigations were carried out this year with varied diagnostic radiopharmaceuticals. Around 5575 Radioimmunoassay (RIA) and Immuno-radiometric Assay (IRMA) kits amounting to carry out about 572,000 in-vitro investigations were supplied to various hospitals, research centres and immunoassay laboratories throughout India. Four units of Cobalt Teletherapy Machines 'Bhabhatron' built indigenously at BARC were commissioned one each at Guwahati, Bathinda andMungeli in India and Zambia in Africa taking the total number of operating units to 30. A new 22-bed ward for cancer patients was commissionedat ACTREC in Navi Mumbai. Over 2100 major procedures were conducted and about 1000 in-patients were admitted in the Leukemia/ Lymphoma ward and around 50 outpatients/day were seen in the adult hemato-lymphoid OPD. A Cancer Registry has been established at Vishakhapatnam. Preparations are in full swing for construction of a cancer hospital in Andhra Pradesh.Meanwhile, OPD activities have commenced and approximately, 150 patients have been treated so far. In nuclear agriculture, a high yielding pigeon-pea variety Trombay Akola Red Arhar (PKV- TARA) was released and Gazette notified for commercial cultivation in Maharashtra. In the area of Food processing, the technology for Fruit Vegetable Dip Treatment Machine for processing of Litchi and other Fruits and Vegetables was developed. Litchi processing technology was transferred to SCRIMAD, Madagascar. Two Radiation Processing plants were commissioned at Unnao, Lucknow and Bavla, Ahmedabad in 2014. The total number of Radiation Processing Plants commissioned in the private sector in the country is now 12.

Political Parties and Populist Policies in Contemporary India: Some Reflections on AAP by Sumona DasGupta 15-29 Political Parties and Populist Policies in Contemporary India: Some Reflections on AAP ∗ Sumona DasGupta Introduction There is little definitional clarity around the term populism. Though the use of this term has proliferated in the last decade, in common parlance there appears to be a pejorative even alarmist connotation associated with it because of its association with authoritarian leaders and policies that exploit the fears and anxieties of the masses for short term gains. A more nuanced view of populism however situates it in the context of the disillusionment of working classes with the crisis of what Nancy Fraser calls modern hegemonic, globalized, financialized forms of capitalism. Some have even viewed it as a counter concept to neoliberal politics which remains committed to free movement of capital and deregulated finance despite bringing in some mitigating politics of recognition (Frazer 2018). Regardless of the light in which populism is viewed there are mixed views on how it is connected with democracy and democratic institutions. In this paper we move away from a value laden connotation of populism as an ideology and stay with an understanding that resonates the most easily with an Indian context - namely any policy, strategy, and movement that is redistributive in nature and as such favours the common person particularly those in subordinate positions, over the elite typically represented by large business and financial interests.
