Summary / Abstract (Note) | The first of the two 1,000 MW nuclear power plants under construction for the last decade 1 at Kudankulam was due to become operational before the end of this year. What it stares at instead is a delayed future after the Tamil Nadu Cabinet passed a resolution in September 2011 to suspend work on the nuclear reactor. Chief Minister Jayalalitha claimed to have been compelled to do so in response to the public protests against the nuclear plant, and she certainly had an eye on the local elections that were due less than a month before the protests broke out. 2 |
