Villagers Want Ramesh To Visit Posco's Proposed Plant Site

Hit by the "push and pull" on implementation of the project since the company signed the MoU with state government in 2005, people from both the anti and the pro-project camps said Ramesh should make an "on-the-spot" enquiry into the ground reality during his two-day visit from April 28.

"We will send a letter to Jairam Ramesh requesting him to personally visit the proposed plant site villages of Posco and verify implementation of FRA," United action committee president Anadi Charan Rout told PTI over phone.

While UAC supports the project, CPI backed Posco Pratirodh Sangram Samiti (PPSS) is strongly opposed to it. Read the full report here.
