All institutions who are using radioactive material first have to inform the Atomic Energy Regulatory Board (AERB) after they have used the material. Under AERB supervision, the residue or waste has to be collected and disposed of at radioactive waste management centres of the Bhabha Atomic Research Institute (BARC), Trombay. This is one way to manage Radioactive waste under the expert guidance of AERB. Atleast AERB in their website should mention how safely one can dispose of Radioactive material, that will help others a lot. |

According to me AERB stands responsible for such mishaps. There should be a rule in place that any material which contains atomic perticles should be handed back to AERB and under any circumstances should not be sold.
I concur with Sudeep. Also the AERB should be more on top of things including the government. People should not be so careless when working with radioactive products or waste. People should know and understand that radioactive materials & waste is highly dangerous and should not be taken lightly. There should be more attention, awareness, education & action taken on radioactive materials. People handling such materials should take more precautions. I concur with Sudeep.

It is not about radioactive material alone. The basic safety protocols of handling chemicals and dangerous materials is missing in curriculum or at best handled lightly. Categorization of hazardous substances handling, transport and storage protocols all are detailed subjects that need be taken up much more seriously. A Premier University failing in this matter is a matter of national shame more than anything as the people in AERB, are as well from such institutions only. The incident raises a much more basic questions, if understood with positive perspectives on several aspects. |

This is very very serious matter of concern for all. When they don't know how to dispose the radioactive material then why they are allowed to use... this is not correct at all... Prevention is better than cure, hence all users should know the preventive and safety measures in handling such material. I think there is no proper awareness has been created.
Thanks Mr.Ravindra Sharma Ji for the referral.

THANK YOU SUDEEP.IT IS HIGH TIME PEOPLE CONCERNED COME FORWARD TO EDUCATE ONE AND ALL ABOUT THE DANGERS INVOLVED,TO AVOID IRREPARABLE LOSS TO HUMAN LIVES. |

Yes, to create awareness:
- the product manuals need to be updated with the caution and the label
- a topic to be included in the academics
- creation of a department by the government and advertising it on television would be helpful.

Radio active waste is like a stock that lost it's value. When buyers preceive something has value they will buy it and when they see it has negative value they abstain from buying it. Radioactive waste is like a negative value product but has the paradoxical state that some poor economies find value in it buy allowing it to be dumped in their environment the host country gets some pay from the country that throws it ther. So this is the solution countries like France follows. |

It should also include educating peoples who use it and also not use it abt. retroactive waste management. |

Its a matter of deep concern. First of all, the AERB should have prescribed the ways to handle such radio-active substances, be it in educational institutions or elsewhere. It is not correct to penalise educational institutions now. In the days of licence raj, had there been any specific licence to be obtained before procuring such equipment that use radio-active material, covering the waste management methodologies too, such instances could definitely have been avoided. In India, we learn by mistakes only, and the system that are in place are basically evolved over a period of time based on trial and error. We regularly receive containers of waste from various countries, and the customs or port officials obviously have no method to screen the materials. Tonnes of such wastes are docked in Kerala ports, unattended and unclaimed due to litigations. Who cares?

Generally, people tend to avoid visiting any Government Body, viz., Atomic Energy Regulatory Board, etc. for want of willing support from the competent authority. Therefore, unused, under-utilized radio-active gadgets and equipment are sold on "As is Whereis" basis. The central purchase department do not necessarily possess the knowledge about the impending danger that these equipment might create to the public if sold as trash. General awareness should be created. Government can easily regulate usage of these items. A streamlined approach with all safeguards as per international standards should be in place with greater awareness training to the users and other departments within the establishment should be imparted so that such untoward incidents can be avoided.

I would like to support Mr. Manjunath here. Bharat Ganarajya.. that is what it should be... |
@ Abhishekh He has clearly explained the differnce between an enterpuener and an owner.. But the problem of the debate is that we fall in neither as we are not into business.. But if he asks that what you wanna be.. I would love to be an enterpuener..... |
Believers believe and non-believers don't . No one can tell what will happen tomorrow but we want to get assurity which makes us feel more secure and so we want to believe in it. All the astrologers are taking advantage of this mentality. |
