Addressing the gathering, Mr. Poundrik said that with the Government of India’s strong focus on enhancing domestic steel production, the Indian steel market is witnessing rapid expansion, leading to a corresponding increase in demand for iron ore. “This presents a significant opportunity for SAIL to leverage its vast mining capabilities by enhancing production, improving operational efficiencies and adopting modern mining technologies,” he added. Emphasising the critical role of individuals across all levels, Mr. Poundrik urged the collective to instil a sense of pride and ownership in order to set new benchmarks of excellence.

Mr. Amarendu Prakash, in his address, said that when the need is strong, outcomes inevitably follow. “When Dreams transform into plans, and once plans are in place, progress begins itself,” he added.
