BIHAR- Sudamdih Mine Disaster

October 9, 1976 The mess in the steel industry, arising out of the large accumulation of unsold stocks and the tremendous drain through subsidised export, would soon have its impact on the steel industry and on the country. The government and the SAIL authorities may be compelled to take measures which would inevitably hit steel workers, their earnings and employment. In TISCO about 1,000 workers were retrenched some time back. This may be an indication of what is to come in the steel industry.
