There
will be change of guard at three atomic power stations, run by Nuclear Power
Corporation of India Ltd (NPCIL), in Tamil Nadu, Karnataka and Gujarat, said an
official.
NPCIL has appointed T.J. Kotteswaran as the station director for Madras Atomic
Power Station (MAPS) effective from Wednesday. There are two 220 MW reactors at
MAPS in Kalpakkam, around 70 km from here.
Earlier heading the third and fourth atomic stations at Kaiga in Karnataka, Kotteswaran's
transfer to MAPS comes due to incumbent K. Ramamurthy's retirement Wednesday.
Hemant Kumar replaces Kotteswaran for Kaiga's third and fourth units, both 220
MW reactors, an official, who didn't want to be named said.
The NPCIL has also promoted P.K. Bansal, chief superintendent at Kakrapar
Atomic Power Station (KAPS) in Gujarat as its station director. KAPS has two
220 MW reactors.
