Rawatbhata, Rajasthan:
As the government and Opposition trade charges over the Nuclear Liability Bill, which provides for compensation in case of a nuclear accident, how safe are India's nuclear reactors?
NDTV's Science Editor, Pallava Bagla entered the very core of a power reactor in Rajasthan to bring you this inside view of a heart of an atomic reactor that has never been filmed before.
In very rare access, the inside of a nuclear reactor is opened exclusively to NDTV's cameras.
(Watch video here)Entering nuclear reactors is not meant for the faint hearted, these complex installations take up to five years to construct incorporating 3-4 tiers of safety barriers to contain radioactivity.
The Department of Atomic Energy says India has had an impressive track record of accident-free reactor operation and hopes it never has to resort invoking the nuclear liability clause since their motto is safety first, profits later.
