It was reported by Mumbai Mirror that there are 30 gaps in the 3-km boundary wall of Tarapur Atomic Power Station (TAPS). The paper reports that the security measures are abysmally poor! This is a shocking revelation to hear after the Terrorist’s outrages in Mumbai. Even the CISF personnel who guards the power plants could be bribed (a paltry sum of Rs.100) to get an entry to any body! Mr. Ramamurthy, Director, TAPS 3&4 even thanked Mumbai Mirror for “awakening us”! Was he sleeping? The statement of the kind “TAPS is safe” is NOT acceptable to the public.
There are nuclear power plants operating in Tarapur, Kalpakkam and Mumbai, which are very close to the sea. It is now proved beyond doubt that the terrorists came to Mumbai via sea route on one dinghy, and country’s sea shores (8000 km long) are ill-guarded or hardly guarded. The government should immediately wake up to this reality and do all possible to avoid a possible NUCLEAR TERRORISM which has fear-dimension, a million times more, than what Mumbaites have gone through recently.
