A Major Leak in India’s Nuclear Plant On Fukushima’s 5th Anniv. On-Site Emergency Declared.

Although the plan authorities have said all safety systems worked fine and the reactor is under shut-down, the declaration of on-site emergency and the fact that said heavy water leak happened in the primary containment which also has high radioactivity raises many questions.
