A number of struggles and a lot of sacrifice has led to the establishment of Visakhapatnam Steel Plant (VSP) but politicians are out to destroy it for their vested interests, opined the former Vice-Chancellor of Damodaram Sanjivayya National Law University (DSNLU) Y. Satyanarayana.
He was speaking at a round table meeting organised to oppose the privatisation of VSP, at the TLN Sabha Hall of Andhra University, in Visakhapatnam on Tuesday.
The steel plant was like a necklace for the city, besides being a national asset. The privatisation of the plant would result in loss of employment and livelihood for the local people. Production and supply should be in the hands of the government, he opined.
