West Bengal-based steelmakers rank as some of the worst of the lot
16 of 21 large steelmakers rated by Centre for Science and Environment's (CSE) Green Rating Project are from the eastern part of the country. Three of these from West Bengal – SAIL's plants in Durgapur and Burnpur, and the Jai Balaji plant in Banskopa
Sudarshan Ghosh Dastidar, minister-in-charge, Department of Environment, government of West Bengal, releases the ratings in Kolkata
Steelmakers polluting land, water and air, using up enormous amounts of resources. Environment and local communities become the worst sufferers
CSE’s findings have implications for the expansion plans of this core sector in the region and state. If performance remains as poor, growth will come at the cost of environment and lead to protests and more environmental degradation
CSE says the sector has huge potential to improve. Presents a road map for improvement in efficiency and green performance.
