Addressing the 47th National Metallurgists’ Day Celebration of the Indian Institute of Metals, Maheswari clarified, “We remain fully committed to our announced greenfield projects in Jharkhand and Orissa. We are looking for other alternatives of land acquisition to accelerate realisation of our plans.” ArcelorMittal’s two 12 million tonne steel plants in Jharkhand and Orissa were running behind schedule on account of problems with land acquisition.
