Atomic radiation may be polluting Ganga, Satpal Maharaj tells PM
北阿坎德邦旅游部长告诉莫迪总理，原子辐射可能会污染恒河
DEHRADUN: In a recent meeting with PM Narendra Modi in New Delhi, Uttarakhand tourism minister Satpal Maharaj referred to the failed 1965 Nanda Devi expedition and expressed his apprehensions that an atomic device that had gone missing over 50 years ago may be polluting waters of the Ganga.
德拉敦：最近与莫迪总理在新德里会面时，北阿坎德邦旅游部长Satpal Maharaj提到了1965年楠达德维峰(喜马拉雅山脉外的双联峰)探险失利，并表示他担心50年前失踪的原子设备可能会污染恒河。
In October 1965, America’s Central Intelligence Agency and India’s Intelligence Bureau had undertaken a clandestine mission to install a nuclear-powered spying device on the summit of Nanda Devi peak to keep a tab on the Chinese. However, the team met with a blizzard and had to retreat leaving behind a nuclear-fuelled generator and plutonium capsules with the intention of renewing its attempt at a later date. However, when they returned a few months later, all the equipment, including the stock of plutonium, was gone. It is believed that plutonium capsules have a longevity of over a hundred years and could still be buried somewhere in the snow.
1965年10月，美国中央情报局和印度情报局在南达德维峰上秘密安装了一套核动力间谍装置，以监视中国。然而，该小组遇到了暴风雪，不得不撤退，留下了一个核燃料发电机和钚胶囊，并打算在以后重新尝试。然而，当他们几个月后返回时，包括钚储备在内的所有设备都消失了。据信钚胶囊的使用寿命长达一百多年，而且还埋在雪中。
Terming the issue “one of a grave and pressing nature”, Maharaj told the PM that there may be a possibility of radiation from the still-active plutonium capsules polluting the snow trickling down from the Nanda Devi range into the Ganga. “I requested the PM to have the matter studied on a priority basis and take action,” he said.
Maharaj告诉总理，这是一个严重而紧迫的问题，仍然活跃的钚胶囊可能会产生辐射，这会污染南达德维山脉的积雪并最终流到恒河。他说:“我请求总理优先考虑这一问题并采取行动。”
At a presser in Dehradun on Monday, Maharaj claimed he had raised the issue in the past, too, but failed to get the desired results. “There is a strong possibility of a radiation leak and a thorough probe will ascertain whether the river is safe,” he said.
周一，在德拉敦的一次记者招待会上，Maharaj称他曾提出过这个问题，但没有得到预期的结果。他表示：“很有可能会发生辐射泄漏，应彻底调查以确定恒河是否安全。”
