Steel industry calls for safeguard measures to protect local players

Calling for protectionist measures to check cheap steel imports, Jindal Stainless Managing Director Abhyuday Jindal on Thursday said that the country has sufficient steel production capacity to meet the local demand.

I request the government's continuous support in this regard," he said while addressing the gathering. Jindal said many countries with excess production disrupt the level-playing field, particularly for the MSME sector.
