16 Aug 2021 CW Team

JSHL told the media that the partnership is for three years.

JSHL said that they signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with MNIT, Jaipur. With this partnership, they envision taking up research, solid waste management, new product development and skill development along with MNIT.

The three-year partnership began with a combined research proposal submission under the government's promotion of research and development in the iron and steel sector's scheme.

As per the statement, the two entities objective is to develop geopolymer, a viable alternative to portland cement used in the construction sector. The rising utilisation of portland cement in concrete production extensively produces greenhouse gases.

JSHL will also be organising national seminars and take up workshops for awareness and skill development for fabricators and students as part of the MoU. MNIT is going to introduce short-term diploma courses in its curriculum, which JSHL will support.

Vijay Bindlish, JSHL Senior Vice-President (manufacturing), told the media that they would initiate a series of innovative projects with MNIT by bridging our infrastructural and industrial excellence and MNIT's technical and educational prowess under this MoU.

Bindlish also said that this initiative would help in developing an ecosystem of practical knowledge, sustainability and innovation backed by the country's youth. Udaykumar R Yaragatti, MNIT Jaipur Director, told the media that their students would get exposure to hands-on industry experience beyond academics before entering their fields of choice as professionals with this innovative partnership.

Yaragatti also said that it would help them train better and excel at industrial practices. He said that it would facilitate them to support society at large.
