Cag Nuclear Safety Report

When Parliament was busy dealing with disruptions through the last three days, perhaps very few noticed the Comptroller and Auditor General's (CAG) report on the country's nuclear watchdog being tabled in the House on Wednesday.

The national auditor's report on India's nuclear safety has raised concerns over a weak regulatory body. In its report on the Atomic Energy Regulatory Board's (AERB) performance audit, the Comptroller and Auditor General has warned a Fukushima or Chernobyl-like disaster if the nuclear safety issue is not addressed by the government.
