Bengaluru: The state government on Monday issued an order instructing to appoint Rohini Sindhuri as the Deputy Commissioner of Hassan district.

The High Court, which was hearing Rohini Sindhuri's petition, which she filed challenging the transfer order, has ordered to continue the service of Sindhuri as Deputy Commissioner of Hassan.

The KAT (Karnataka State Administrative Tribunal) had upheld the Siddaramaiah government’s order to transfer Sindhuri from Hassan district. Rohini Sindhuri, an IAS officer, had knocked the door of the high court challenging the order.

New Delhi (PTI): Lok Sabha on Wednesday passed the nuclear energy bill with Union minister Jitendra Singh asserting that it would help India achieve its target of 100 GW atomic energy generation by 2047.

The Sustainable Harnessing and Advancement of Nuclear Energy for Transforming India (SHANTI) Bill, which seeks to open the tightly-controlled civil nuclear sector for private participation, was passed by voice vote amid a walkout by the opposition.

Singh termed the bill a "milestone legislation" that will give a new direction to the country's developmental journey.

"India's role in geopolitics is increasing. If we have to be a global player, we have to follow global benchmarks and global strategies. The world is moving towards clean energy. We too have set a target of 100 GW of nuclear energy capacity by 2047," he said.

The opposition contended that the bill diluted provisions of the Civil Liability for Nuclear Damage Act, 2010 that passed on the liability for a nuclear incident on to the suppliers of nuclear equipment.
