The conference will be inaugurated and addressed by Union Minister of Steel - Chaudhary Birender Singh and Steel Secretary - Aruna Sharma, besides eminent industry stalwarts and experts from India and abroad.
It will provide a robust platform for critical issue-based discussions, showcasing cutting-edge technologies for steel making, policy planning, raw material security, supply chain, logistics and environment, a statement issued here said.
The Central Government's flagship 'Make in India' programme is aimed at transforming the country into a global manufacturing hub and providing strong stimulus for resurgence of India's steel industry.
This year the conference is special since it is occurring against the backdrop of uncertainty over continuance of Minimum Import Price (MIP) and anti-dumping that the government has imposed to insulate the domestic steel industry against surging imports from steel-surplus countries.
