VISAKHAPATNAM : As the supply of coking coal and essential raw material disrupted in Visakhapatnam Steel Plant (VSP) following the strike at Adani Gangavaram Port Private Limited (AGPL), the steel plant has been facing unprecedented challenges. Operation at the AGPL came to a grinding halt as workers staged an agitation from April 12.

The disruption significantly affected RINL’s ability to procure essential raw material, coking coal and limestone, which are crucial for the VSP’s production process. However, the supply of essential raw material from APGL resumed from Friday.
