JSW steel plant answer to Mufti's, Abdullah's queries about 'where's investment': Raman
2/23/2023 10:39:24 PM
Early Times Report
JAMMU, Feb 23: Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) J&K Executive Member Raman Suri today said that those political parties which were averse to peace or were hell bent upon spoiling the career of young boys and girls by stagnating development in their tenure, must see how investments worth crores of rupees are now coming to Jammu and Kashmir. What's strange is that these political parties are mum over this development and are still trying to misguide youth by making them look the other way, he added.
Raman Suri said that the foundation stone laying ceremony of Jindal South West (JSW) steel processing plant in Pulwama worth Rs 150 crore is testimony to the fact that investors have started descending here to create infrastructure and generate employment for the youth. Pulwama, located in the heart of Kashmir and once infested with militancy, is today seeing development. Those who tried to create an unrest in Kashmir are now either on the run or stand eliminated by our forces to pave way for development.
He asked politicians like Mehbooba Mufti, Omar Abdullah and Farooq Abdullah to themselves look at how firm India is in its resolve to give the people of Jammu and Kashmir ample opportunities to build their career and contribute to nation building. This investment wherein JSW Group has decided to invest Rs 150 crore to manufacture 1.2 lakh metric tonnes of colour-coated steel sheets will pave way for others as well to descend here and make our Union Territory a hub of economic activities.
The BJP leader said that the Muftis and Abdullahs had blocked all the possibilities of such investments in J&K because of their wrong policies and Article 370, which stands abrogated now. Still shocking was when a doctor trying to invest in J&K winded up his plan during the tenure of Abdullah, alleging corruption and nepotism. Those days are over and now transparency besides accountability in the system are encouraging world-class investors to come to Jammu and Kashmir and establish their units here.
The industries department has already transferred approximately 70 kanals of land (8.75 acres) to JSW Steel Limited in Pulwama's Lassipora industrial area to set up a Rs 150-crore steel plant and the company has already taken over the possession and started working on their project which will create ample employment opportunities for the youth, Raman Suri said, adding that JSW intends to manufacture 1,20,000 metric tonnes of colour-coated sheets per annum besides steel sandwich panels and steel doors for the local market in Jammu and Kashmir, which is a healthy sign of development. Other investments worth Rs 66,000 crore are also in the pipeline.
