India ratifies CSC for Nuclear Damage

The Instrument of Ratification of the Convention on Supplementary Compensation for Nuclear Damage, 1997 has been submitted by India to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), marking an important measure in addressing matters related to civil nuclear liabilities.
  • The instrument was handed over by Indian Ambassador to Austria and Permanent Representative of India to IAEA Rajiva Misra to Acting Director General of IAEA, Juan Carlos Lentijo.
  • This ratification will come into force after 90 days, i.e. May 4, 2016.
The Instrument of Ratification will not only clear the way for India’s nuclear commerce with international economies but also make a contribution in strengthening the global nuclear liability regime.
