<p style="text-align: left;" align="center">In a significant step towards strengthening advanced rehabilitation and pain management services, Ispat General Hospital (IGH), of Rourkela Steel Plant (RSP) has introduced High-Power LASER Therapy (HPLT) at its Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation Centre. The newly installed  High-Power LASER Therapy System brings state-of-the-art technology to patients seeking effective, non-invasive treatment for pain and musculoskeletal disorders.</p>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">
<p>It is worth mentioning here that this advanced treatment modality uses focused light energy to reduce pain, decrease inflammation, promote tissue repair, and accelerate recovery. It is particularly beneficial for patients suffering from chronic back pain, neck pain, arthritis, sports injuries, tendon and ligament disorders, frozen shoulder, plantar fasciitis, nerve-related pain, and post-operative rehabilitation.</p>

<p>Available in very few hospitals of western Odisha this technology further strengthens the comprehensive rehabilitation services available at IGH. Patients can now access advanced physiotherapy interventions closer to home, reducing the need to travel to metropolitan centres for specialized treatment.</p>
<p>Notably, the Physiotherapy Unit of IGH has a rich history of providing quality rehabilitation services to patients from Rourkela and surrounding regions for several decades. Over the years, the department has earned the trust of the community through its patient-centred approach, evidence-based treatment practices, and consistently high levels of patient satisfaction.</p>
<p>Headed by Dr. S. K. Tiwari, the dedicated physiotherapy team, comprising Mr. B N Panda and Mr. Premanand, plays a vital role in delivering personalized, evidence-based rehabilitation care with excellent clinical outcomes. The department offers a wide range of modern physiotherapy and rehabilitation services for orthopaedic, neurological, paediatric, geriatric, sports injury, and post-surgical patients. The unit is equipped with advanced rehabilitation equipment and treatment modalities, enabling comprehensive care under one roof.</p>
<p>The Physiotherapy Centre is open not only to SAIL employees and their beneficiaries but also to the general public, ensuring that quality rehabilitation services are accessible to all. With the addition of the High-Power LASER Therapy System, Ispat General Hospital continues its tradition of combining experience, expertise, and modern technology to provide high-quality rehabilitation care.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Research &amp; Control (R&amp;C) Laboratory at Steel Authority of India Limited’s Rourkela Steel Plant (RSP) has been playing a central role in the Steel Plant’s quality and product-innovation efforts. Notably, RSP is the first SAIL unit to secure simultaneous certifications from DNV and IRS and a BIS license for SBQ-grade steel plates.</p>
<p>Leveraging the Lab’s testing and development capabilities, RSP has commercialised ASTM A387 Class 2 (Grades 11 &amp; 12) N&amp;T plates up to 40 mm, higher-grade CRNO coils (50C400 &amp; 50C470) at 0.50 mm, and demonstrated normalized rolling of E410BR plates up to 70 mm. The plant developed DMR 249A HR plates via the HSM route for the Indian Navy, SiK Grade-1 HR coils for stamping, IS 10748 Grade V high-strength HR coils for sharp bending, and low-carbon EDD steel via the RH route for downstream cold-rolling. RSP has also produced SAIL WR400 quenched plates meeting required hardness and mechanical properties, with warpage-control.</p>
<p>On process optimisation, RSP reduced ferro-alloy consumption through adjusted Manganese and ultra-low Niobium strategies in key grades. The plant secured IS 3039 (BIS) plus DNV and IRS certifications for shipbuilding steels and vendor approval from IOCL for API-grade coils up to X70 PSL2, opening high-value pipeline markets.</p>
<p>The department has carried out infrastructure upgrades like setting up of new Test House with 65 testing/sample-prep equipment items. The facilities to test Calcium Silicon and ferromanganese have been enhanced, while the converter-floor container-lab robotic system has been revived.</p>
<p>These advances demonstrate RSP’s commitment to innovation, cost-effective production and stringent quality standards.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Special Plate Plant (SPP) of SAIL, Rourkela Steel Plant is a flagship facility dedicated to the production of armour-grade and quenched &amp; tempered (Q&amp;T) steel plates for strategic defence, naval and research applications.</p>
<p>During the last fiscal year, the department generated revenue exceeding  Rs. 300 crore through its specialized products. In a significant achievement, SPP successfully developed and dispatched 4 mm 2 PIE armour-grade plates for Ordnance Factory Medak, demonstrating its technological capability and commitment to meeting the evolving requirements of India&#8217;s defence sector.</p>
<p>Commissioned in 1969, the plant has a rich legacy of supplying high-quality steel plates to India&#8217;s defence forces and naval establishments. With the commissioning of a new Quenching &amp; Tempering (Q&amp;T) Furnace and an additional Heat Treatment Line, the plant&#8217;s production capacity has been enhanced from 250 tonnes per month to 1,250 tonnes per month.</p>
<p>SPP plays a pivotal role in supporting the nation&#8217;s vision of Atmanirbhar Bharat by catering to the requirements of defence and research organizations. Over the years, it has supplied steel for several prestigious indigenous defence projects, including INS Vikrant, INS Kamorta and INS Taragiri, among others.</p>
<p>The plant has also supplied substantial quantities of Spade Grade and Jackal Grade plates to Heavy Vehicles Factory and Ordnance Factory Medak for the manufacture of armoured vehicles. In addition, Jackal Grade plates have been supplied to Vehicle Factory Jabalpur for anti-mine protected vehicles. Other notable achievements include rolling plates for the Agni Missile Programme supplied to Mishra Dhatu Nigam Limited and producing and dispatching naval-grade steels such as DMR-249A, DMR-249B and DMR-301 under the guidance of Defence Metallurgical Research Laboratory.</p>
<p>As a pioneer in the production of heat-treated armour-grade steel plates for ordnance factories and the Indian Navy, the Special Plate Plant continues to contribute significantly to India&#8217;s self-reliance in defence manufacturing. Through its advanced capabilities, technological excellence and unwavering commitment to quality, SPP remains a vital partner in strengthening India&#8217;s defence preparedness and national security.</p>

Dr. Panda arrived in Rourkela on Friday and was received at the airport by RSP Director-in-Charge Alok Verma.

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>SAIL, Rourkela Steel Plant (RSP) has undertaken a series of proactive initiatives through its Horticulture Department to protect the animals, birds, and reptiles housed at the Indira Gandhi Park Zoo from the harsh summer heat. The measures are aimed at ensuring a safe and healthy environment for nearly 200 zoo inhabitants belonging to 18 different species.</p>
<p>As part of the summer care plan, cold water is being regularly sprayed inside the enclosures of leopards, bears, deer, and primates using water tankers to reduce ambient temperatures. Air coolers have also been installed in the enclosures of leopards, bears, monkeys, peacocks, and macaws to provide additional relief from the soaring heat.</p>

<p>To maintain hygiene and ensure animal comfort, water pools in the paddocks of bears, deer, and emus are being scraped and cleaned thoroughly to provide clean bathing spaces. Enclosures are being disinfected regularly with medicinal disinfectants to prevent infections and maintain sanitation during the hot season.</p>

<p>A continuous supply of cold and potable drinking water is being ensured in the deer enclosures and wallowing ponds for sambars, nilgai, and emus. In addition, to prevent dehydration and heat-related stress, the animals are being provided electrolyte supplements, succulent feed, and anti-stress formulations mixed with drinking water, particularly for primates, birds, and deer.</p>
<p>Water tankers are also being deployed to sprinkle water over animal sheds every alternate day to reduce surface temperature and create a cooling effect. Special attention is being given to sensitive and endangered species, ensuring uninterrupted access to water bodies for effective body temperature regulation.</p>
<p>Notably, Indira Gandhi Park Zoo, is the the second-largest integrated zoo in Odisha, which attracts nearly one lakh visitors every year.</p>
