Calling the Orissa state government and its ministers agents of POSCO, former minister Mr HK Patil has asked the government drop the proposed acquisition of farming land to set up POSCO steel plant in Mundaragi taluk of Gadag district.
Mr Patil said that “This project will also be a threat to the Kappathgudda, which is rich in rare medicinal plants.”
Speaking to mediapersons, Mr Patil criticized major and minor industries minister Mr Murugesh Nirani for reportedly stating that a conspiracy had been hatched in the form of opposition to the land acquisition, and challenged Mr Nirani to clarify whether seers, political parties or social organizations have hatched the conspiracy.
