  • The Role of Church and Western Ngos in Destabilization Activities in India by Ravindranath
    The role of church and western NGOs in destabilization activities in India By Ravindranath There is a misconception that only the Muslim radicals resort to terrorism. However, the truth is that the Christian evangelists are equally guilty of encouraging terrorism in India. The only difference is that they do it in a surreptitious manner. In fact, the Christian involvement in aiding various insurgent and militant groups in the north-east started right from the time of India‟s emergence as an independent nation in 1947. The Christian missionaries, especially those belonging to Catholic and Protestant factions, are also found closely linked with pro-LTTE elements in Tamil Nadu, militant tribal groups in Tripura and the Maoist movement. It may be recalled that four RSS Pracharaks who were opposed to the Christian conversion activities in Tripura were abducted by a Christian militant group about 20 years back, and even their dead bodies were never recovered. Even now there are various instances of pro-Christian militants in Tripura intimidating the Hindu tribals against offering prayers at their religious places and disrupting their pujas and other religious rituals. It is an open secret that the church had used the Maoist outfit to eliminate VHP leader Swami Laxmanananda Saraswati and four others in Kandhamal district of Orissa on August 23, 2008, because of his opposition to the Christian conversion activities in the area. In an interview published in the May 6, 2010 edition of „Sathyadeepam‟, a Catholic weekly published from Kochi (Kerala), Bishop Charles Soreng of Hazaribagh, Jharkhand has admitted that the Maoists are sympathetic to the church and are supporting the priests in carrying out their missionary activities.

  • Title: Need to Provide Infrastructural Facilities at Tuticorin Airport in Tamil Nadu
    > Title: Need to provide infrastructural facilities at Tuticorin Airport in Tamil Nadu. SHRI S.S. RAMASUBBU (TIRUNELVELI): Mr. Chairman, Sir, I raise an important issue regarding Tuticorin Airport expansion and provision of infrastructure facilities. Tuticorin (Thoothukudi) in Tamil Nadu is a major port city in the country. It became the centre of India's Independence movement in the early 20th century. Tuticorin harbour is well known as pearl diving, fishing centre and ship building. Tuticorin is surrounded by Tirunelveli, Kanniyakumari, Virudhunagar and Ramanathapuram districts and on the south-east by the Gulf of Mannar. Tuticorin is also nearer to Tuticorin Port, Nanguneri SEZ, Kudankulam Nuclear Power Plant and for the visiting tourists to Rameswaram. ...(Interruptions) It is an important centre on the commercial and tourist map of our country and it is presently served only by Spicejet Airlines to Chennai. In the recent past, the tourist traffic to this city and neighbouring places have increased manifold and most of the tourists prefer to travel by air so that they can utilize their time to the maximum. Considering the commercial and tourism potential, there is not enough service connecting Tuticorin with other important cities. Moreover, people from Tuticorin, Ramanathapuram, Tirunelveli and its adjoining districts where population of Muslim community is concentrated often go to various foreign countries especially to Gulf and South East Asian countries. They have to go either to Chennai or Thiruvananthapuram for their onward journey and in the process they suffer financial hardship and also lose considerable time in travel and energy. ...(Interruptions) In the recent past, Union Government has identified 35 non-metro airports in the country for expansion and modernization.

  • A Case Study Approach on Koodankulam Nuclear Power Project
    A CASE STUDY APPROACH ON KOODANKULAM NUCLEAR POWER PROJECT Dr. J. P. Kumar Professor, GEM Business Academy, Gobichettipalayam Email: [email protected] Ms. R.Ambigai, Assistant Professor, Department of MBA, SSKCET, Coimbatore Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT As a developing nation we need energy to support our future industrial & domestic needs. But the way to generate this energy does not depend solely on nuclear energy. Throughout the world many developed countries are shutting down their nuclear reactors and starts looking into alternative ways to produce energy in a safer and greener way. India can achieve its future needs but it will not be the safe for the country’s internal security and safety. Koodankulam is a place in the Tirunelveli district in Tamil Nadu, India. It is situated 25 km north-east of Kanyakumari and 35 km from Nagercoil. The place is notable as the construction site of the Kudankulam Nuclear Power Plant. It is also the location of hundreds of windmills used for power generation, eight of which are located inside the grounds of the nuclear plant. Since the beginning of 2011, this place has been embroiled in a nuclear plant controversy over its safety by its people. Recently there have been several struggles by local people against the project. Local people are afraid that in case of a natural disaster the reactor may blast. This paper will deal about the various dimensions of Koodankulam Nuclear Power Plant with both its positive & negative sides. Keywords: Koodankulan, Nuclear, Power, Project, Electrical Energy, Nuclear Reactors, Tirnelveli, Tamilnadu, KNPP A Case Study Approach on Koodankulam Nuclear Power Project Introduction India has developed an installed capacity of 5,340 MW from wind power just over the last decade compared to 3580 MW from nuclear power developed over the last five decades.
