It also includes state value added tax, octroi and entry tax, entertainment
tax, etc. The Bill insorts a new Article in the Constitution to give the
central and state governments the concurrent power to.make laws on the
taxation of goods and services. However, only the centre may levy and
collect GST on supplies in the course of inter-state trade or commerce. The
tax collected would be divided between the centre and the states in a manner
to be provided by Parliament, by law, on the recommendations of the GST

Pradesh and Uttarakhand; and (viii) any other matters. The introduetion
of Goods and Services Tax (GST) is a very significant step in the field
of indirect. tax reforms in India. By amalgamating a lange number of Contral

The Swachhi Bharat Abbivaa,-lnunchied by Honorable Piitoe Minister oi
2nd of October in 2014, marks the beginning of the largest programme

to ensure access to sanitation facilities (including toilets, solid and liquid
whnid, disposal iynioali and liek Aeniinisan) aiid’ safe nd adliyuata
drinking water supply to every citizen by 2019. Under the new programme,
the Nirmal Bharat Abhiyan (NBA) will be re-structured into Swachh
Bharat Mission with two sub-missions — Swachh Bharat Mission (Gramin)
and Swachh Bharat Mission (Urban). The two missions will fall under the
Union Ministry of Drinking Water and Sanitation (for Rural) and the Union
Ministry of Urban Development (for Urban). The unit costs for toilets will
be enhanced for Individual Houschold Latrines (HHLs) (from Rs. 10,000
to Rs. 12,000), school toilets (from Rs. 85,000 to Rs. 54,000), Anganwadi
toilets (from Rs. 8,000 to Re. 20,000) and Community Sanitary Complexes
(CSCs) (Rs. 2,00,000 to Re. 6,00,000). Given that one of the major

been the lack of funds, the proposed investment of Rs, 1.34 lakh crore for
rural areas and Rs, 62,009 erore for urban areas over the next five years,
is likely to go a long way in achieving the goals set by the programme.
The unit costs for IHHLs, the key component of rural sanitation programmes
has witnessed a marginal increase. The increase in the unit costs of IHHLs
(Le. of Rs, 2,000) has been done to provide water availability, including
for storage, hand washing and cleaning of toilets. Funds for these new
initiatives will be raised through budgetary allocations, contributions to the
Swachh Bharat Kosh al through commitments under Corporate Social
Responsibility (CSR).

India-Australia Nuclear Treaty : On September 5, 2014, India and
Ausiralia signed a MoU for ‘Cooperation in the Peaceful Uses of Nuclear
Energy’ during the Australian Prime Minister's visit to India. The
agréement was signed by the Secretary, Indian Department of Atomic
Energy and the High Commissioner of Australia to India. This agreoment
was signed for India to use nuclear energy for peaceful purposes like
research, power generation, medicine, agriculture and industry and
Australia as long term reliable supplier of Uranium to India. Indian
Uranium resources are very small and more than 50% is imported. India
operates 20 mostly small reactors at six sites with a capacity of 4,780 MW,
or 2 percent of its total power capacity, according to the Nuclear Power
Corporation of India Limited. The Government hopes to increase its
nuclear capacity to 63,000 MW by 2032 by adding nearly 30 reactors
at an estimated cost of $85 billion. It currently has nuclear energy
agreements with 11 countries and imports Uranium from France, Russia

as much energy as 1 ky of oval. Currently about 4% of electricity in India
is provided from nuclear power plants and 70% from coal, Apart from the
environmental problems of, generating electricity from fossil fuels, the
fossil fuels are also fast depleting. To maintain a clean. onergy security,
Government of India aims to generate 25% of electricity in India from nuclear
powor plants by 2050. Though India has relatively large reserves of Thorium
Oxide, its Uranium reserves are comparatively modost. As of May 2014,
India has 2,11,478 tonnes in situ U808 (1,79,389 tonne Uranium) reserves,
It regularly assesses the “techno-sconomie viability” of extraction and
development of Uranium resources. Not all Uranium deposits explored are
mined and processed. On various occasions, mining and exploration of
Uranium reserves have been discontinued because of the low economic
feasibility, The Department of Atomic Energy (DAE) admitted in
1 pasl
that shortage of Uranium had affected the functioning of the power plants.
Tn an anewer to a question in the Indian Parliament, the government
stated, “The Country's Uranium requirement in the 12th Five Year
Plan [2012-2017] period is estimated to be 5057 tonnes. This includes
318 tonnes of low enriched Uranium for Tarapur Atomic Power Station
