CM Majhi to lead Odisha delegation at India Steel 2025 conference

Bhubaneswar, Apr 24 (UNI) Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi will lead Odisha’s delegation at the India Steel 2025 Conference, organized by the Ministry of Steel, Government of India, in collaboration with FICCI.
The Odisha government is set to play a prominent role at the three-day India Steel 2025 Conference, being held from April 24 to April 26 at the Bombay Exhibition Centre, Goregaon, Mumbai.
India Steel 2025 was inaugurated earlier on Thursday by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in the presence of global dignitaries and national industry leaders.
The event brings together stakeholders from government, industry, academia, and international trade to deliberate on the future of the steel sector and its contribution to India’s Viksit Bharat 2047 vision.
Key focus areas include sustainable steel production, raw material security, digital transformation, and global partnerships.
A key highlight of Day 2 will be the “State Roundtable: Odisha – Focusing on Expanding Steel Production and Raw Material Supply,” chaired by Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi on April 25.
The session will feature participation from India’s top steel producers, including Tata Steel, JSPL, JSW, SAIL, AM/NS, and others. It is expected to underscore Odisha’s leadership as India’s steel capital.
The Roundtable will spotlight the state’s raw material strengths, robust infrastructure, investor-friendly policies, and downstream potential.
Senior officials from the Odisha government will deliver presentations, accompanied by experience-sharing from major industry leaders. A dedicated film on Odisha’s metal sector ecosystem will also be screened during the session.
Following the Roundtable, the Chief Minister will hold exclusive one-on-one B2G meetings with leading industrialists from the steel and allied sectors.
Majhi will also meet with key national industry bodies, including the Indian Chemical Council (ICC) and the Indian Drug Manufacturers’ Association (IDMA), to promote Odisha’s sectoral strengths.
Odisha’s active participation in India Steel 2025 reinforces its commitment to industrial transformation under the vision of Samrudh Odisha 2036, and reflects the state’s emergence as a future-ready, investor-first industrial hub in Eastern India, official sources said.
