Yesterday night, in Mayapuri in west Delhi, five people fell seriously ill after being exposed to some “ radioactive material ”, reportedly present in medical waste equipment at a scrap dealer’s shop. The skin of two persons reportedly turned completely black. They also had burn injuries and rashes all over their bodies. Police said the victims had been exposed to radiation for the past few days. These people were sleeping in a room where the medical waste equipment had been stored. They showed allergic reactions and started vomiting when exposed to the radiation. We have cordoned off the area around the factory as a precautionary measure. They were sent to All India Institute of Medical Sc...

2 Hazard Prevention and Safety should become a subject
NATTERAJA R. ARIKRISHNAN  |  Supported idea  "Hazard Prevention and Safety should become a subject"  |  1 year ago
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...
Rathin Deb  |  Supported idea  "Consult AERB (Atomic energy regulatory board)"  |  1 year ago
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.  
Santosh Kumar Mohanty  |  Supported idea  "Consult AERB (Atomic energy regulatory board)"  |  2 years ago
I agree with Sudeep. It is a surprise to know that the user of radioactive materials do not know how to dispose it although it is a basic subject for them.

Whenever some construction takes place a lot of waste is generated. earlier the trend was to dispose off that waste. But there are certain reasons why should not dispose off the waste rather try out something else. These reasons are: Cost : A survey reported that a typical builder in US pays $511 per house for construction waste disposal. Your disposal costs may rise as old landfills close and new ones become more difficult to site and more costly to design and operate. Efficiency : If materials are wasted on your job site, you pay twice -- once at purchase and again when the usable material is hauled off for disposal. Knowing what materials end up in your dumpster can tell you a lot about ...

I am not sure whether this is really happened or not, But I liked it and want to share with all my friend here. Please read once ............ One day Maths teacher asked her students to list the names of the other students in the room on two sheets of paper, leaving a space between each name. Then she told them to think of the nicest thing they could say about each of their classmates and write it down. It took the remainder of the class period to finish their assignment, and as the students left the room, each one handed in the papers. That Saturday, the teacher wrote down the name of each student on a separate sheet of paper, and listed what everyone else had said about that individual. On Monday she gave each student his or her list. Before long, the entire class was smiling. 'Really?' she heard whispered. 'I never knew that I meant anything to anyone!' and, 'I didn't know others liked me so much,' were most of the comments. No one ever mentioned those papers in class again. She...
