It is indeed supremely difficult to effectively refute the claim that John von Neumann is likely the most intelligent person who has ever lived. By the time of his death in 1957 at the modest age of 53, the Hungarian polymath had not only revolutionized several subfields of mathematics and physics but also made foundational contributions to pure economics and statistics and taken key parts in the invention of the atomic bomb, nuclear energy and digital computing.
Chennai: They can only own the land, but can’t sell them – this has become the predicament of residents of at least 14 villages in the vicinity of Indira Gandhi Centre for Atomic Research (IGCAR) at Kalpakkam.
The registration freeze on all kinds of properties located within a radius of 7km around the IGCAR in Kalpakkam, about 70km south of Chennai, was made public last week when the local registration office began implementing the move on directions from the Kalpakkam Nuclear Installation Local Authority (NILA).
As a result, land registration has been frozen completely in five villages, and partially in another nine villages in the region.
