Prime minister lays foundation stone for Jammu and Kashmir 850 Mw Hydroelectric project

Nation first 850 Mw Hydel project start on River Chenab
Prime Minister Manmohan Singh  kick to start work on 850 megawatt hydro-electric project on the River Chenab as part of efforts to tap the hydroelectric potential in Jammu and Kashmir.
The 850 MW Ratle project, which is the nation's first hydroelectric project that was bid out through tariff based international competitive bidding, will cost Rs 5,500 crore, Singh said laying foundation stone of the project.


The project was awarded to GVK Power which offered the lowest tariff for generating power.
"GVK Power effort will be made to complete the project by its scheduled deadline of February 2018,"
Prime Minister Manmohan Singh  said adding electricity generated from this project will bring prosperity to the people of Jammu and Kashmir and other Indian state also
Despite power generation in the state rising to 1,664 MW, Jammu and Kashmir continues to be a power deficit state, he said announcing supply of 150 MW of electricity from Central pool to the state

Concrete Gravity Dam
The dam is located near Drabshala village. The waterway is provided with five orifice spillways with crest El. 985.00 m and one upper level overflow spillway with crest level El. 1012.50 m.
Main features include:
- Dam height from deepest foundation level                            133.0 m
- Top width of dam                                                               194.8 m
- Design Flood                                                                      13,814 m³/s
- Maximum Reservoir Level (MRL)                                        El 1029.00 m
  - Full Reservoir Level (FRL)                                                  El 1029.00 m
  - Minimum Draw-Down Level (MDDL)                                  El 1015.86 m
  - Energy Dissipation                                                              Trajectory bucket
Construction of Dam involves approximately 11.31 Lacs cum of Excavation and 12.11 Lacs cum of Concreting.

CSIR to launch its fastest supercomputer in Bangalore

CSIR is all set to launch its fastest supercomputer at India's first ever big data science institute in Bangalore later this month marking its entry into the new field of data intensive scientific discovery. The supercomputer will have a speed of 360 tera flops, making it the fourth fastest machine in the country and will be housed in the CSIR Fourth Paradigm Institute (CSIR-4PI). The Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) has decided to re-position its Bangalore-based Centre for Mathematical Modelling and Computer Simulation (CMMACS) to deal with data intensive scientific discovery, which has emerged as the fourth paradigm of science. CSIR Director General Samir Brahmachari met Prime Minister Manmohan Singh this week to invite him to launch the new institute. Science has changed over the years from the first paradigm of discovery through observation of nature (empirical), to the development of generalised principles and formulation of models (the...

Infrared night vision technology used as a safety measure

Night vision detection detect the infrared rays and show the object on screen or monitor Night vision detection used Infrared detector Camera to capture infrared rays Shown on monitor screen This all things are synchronised with one another Here on the monitor the image is shown similar to the objects The image is capture by infrared detection camera and image is black and white negative image This detector detects the object in the range of 300 meters This device is helpfull when car is moving in normal speed This device contain  more buttons Brightness Object  details BMW uses automotive night detection It also detects humans animals and pedestrian It use highly flash lights to move the object in save place
