Naveen Jindal, the Chairman of JSP, revealed this development during a recent meeting, emphasising the significant impact this project will have on the regional and national economy.

The plant, which will have an annual production capacity of 30 million tonnes, is expected to create thousands of jobs and boost economic activity in the region. Jindal highlighted the strategic importance of Angul due to its rich mineral resources and existing infrastructure, which make it an ideal location for such a large-scale project.

The project aligns with the Indian government's vision of making the country a global manufacturing hub. It is also expected to contribute significantly to the goal of increasing steel production capacity, supporting various industries and infrastructure projects across India.

JSP plans to leverage advanced technologies and sustainable practices in the new plant. This includes the use of green energy sources and innovative methods to reduce carbon emissions, aligning with global trends towards environmentally responsible manufacturing.

The establishment of this plant marks a major milestone in India's industrial landscape, setting a new benchmark for steel production worldwide. As the project progresses, it will not only transform Angul into a major industrial centre but also reinforce India's position in the global steel market.
