MP WANTS GAS GUJARAT-PARADIP PIPELINE VIA BALANGIR
Monday, 29 April 2013 | PNS | BALANGIR | in Bhubaneswar
 ===========================================================
Member of Parliament from Balangir Kalikesh Narayan Singh Deo has submitted a proposal to the Union Ministry of Petroleum to supply natural gas from Gujarat to Paradip via Balangir to spur industrial activity in this district and the State.
Singh Deo pointed out that the minerals found in Balangir district are not adequate to attract and set up steel, coal-based and other industries. So, to boost industrial development and business activities in the district, he has submitted a proposal for supply of natural gas through pipeline from Gujarat to Paradip via Balangir.
“Once this proposal is approved and the pipeline passes through Balangir, it will attract a lot of industries, including power, steel and  fertiliser besides other investments to the district,” he said.
Gujarat has progressed rapidly after it got the Hajira-Bjiepur-Jagdishpur natural gas pipeline and it attracted a lot of industries. Various industries were set up near the gas pipeline, Singh Deo pointed out. For development of manpower, the second campus of the XIMB is going to be set up in Balangir, besides an institute to impart training to unemployed youths to equip them with various skills and provide employment, Singh Deo said.
