Introduction: A Nuclear Vision for Viksit Bharat@2047 As India marches toward its ambitious goal of becoming a developed nation by 2047, energy security stands as a pivotal pillar in the vision of Viksit Bharat . Amid the global climate crisis and rising energy demands, nuclear power has re-emerged as a compelling solution. India’s commitment to achieving 100 GW of nuclear power capacity by 2047 is both visionary and necessary—but achieving this requires a strategic shift in policy, participation, and international cooperation. While India’s nuclear energy sector has traditionally been a tightly controlled domain under government monopoly—primarily led by the Department of Atomic Energy (DAE) and Nuclear Power Corporation of India Limited (NPCIL) —it is now imperative to welcome private sector investments and foreign partnerships. A reformed nuclear ecosystem can unlock the full potential of atomic energy as a clean, reliable, and scalable contributor to India’s net-zero aspiration...
India’s First Hyper loop Test Track: A Major Leap in Transportation India is advancing towards futuristic transportation with the development of its first hyperloop test track. The Ministry of Railways has confirmed this progress through an official video, highlighting the country's commitment to high-speed and sustainable travel. 1. What is a Hyper loop? A hyper loop is a proposed mode of ultra-fast transportation. It uses magnetically levitated pods inside a low-pressure tube to minimize air resistance and friction. Capable of reaching speeds of over 1000 km/h , making it faster than conventional trains and even airplanes for short distances. 2. Key Features of India’s Hyper loop Project Test Track Completion: India’s first test track is nearly ready, signaling a breakthrough in hyper loop technology. Speed & Efficiency: Expected to revolutionize travel by reducing journey times between major cities to minutes instead of hours . Sustainable & Green: Operates on rene...
