Feasibility of nuclear plant in North-East to be studied [1]

Minister of State for Power Jairam Ramesh on Saturday said the Department of Atomic Energy (DAE) would form a committee to study the techno-economic feasibility of setting up a nuclear power plant in the North-East. The DAE would also prepare a White Paper on proposed uranium mining in Meghalaya, he said. The white paper will be handed over by the DAE to Meghalaya Chief Minister Donkupar Roy on May 31. The Chief Minister will table it in the Assembly and after a threadbare discussion the white paper will be made public.
