Laborers demand reduced Iron ore rate for Indian Steel mill owners...

My name is Bhagirath Verma. I am calling from Chhattisgarh Mukti Morcha. I want to bring to your notice that our Govt is selling Iron ore to China and Japan at the rate of Rs 900 per tonne whereas the Iron ore is sold to Indian companies at Rs 5500 per tonne. Due to this many sponge iron and small steel plants have got closed. We demand that state should be selling Iron ore at Rs 900 to Indian companies and at Rs 5500 to foreign companies. Otherwise laborers will be forced to stand with the mill owners. For more Verma Ji can be reached at 09039142049
