The Supreme Court has refused a stay on fuel loading at the nuclear plant in Kundankulam, in Tamil Nadu. The, however, court observed: "Safety standards are prime important. People in the area should be protected and they should have right to know about their safety."

The court will take up the case for detailed hearing on September 20.

The Kudankulam plant, designed to be India's biggest producer of atomic power, has been fraught with hunger strikes and protest camps of thousands of villagers who say the plant will endanger their safety and their livelihood.
