India's Gujarat Nuclear Plant Shut Down After Major Heavy Water Leak | 12 March 2016 | An emergency has been declared within the nuclear plant at Kakrapar in Gujarat after a major heavy water leak in a nuclear reactor.

If emergency cooling systems do not kick in after this sort of glitch, the temperature can rise so much that the core of the reactor can melt down completely.
