The Bokaro Steel Plant (BSL), which recently hit the headlines for exporting its products to China during the lockdown, is faced with difficulties in the absence of a full-time chief executive officer (CEO). MLA Narayan has sent a letter to the Union steel minister, Dharmendra Pradhan, informing him about the status of the plant in absence of a CEO. Narayan said: “I have demanded that the Union steel minister appoint a CEO immediately. For improved operation of the plant, SAIL management appointed its director, Harinand Rai, as CEO in charge in December 2019. It shows the steel ministry and Government of India’s a lack of interest in PSUs, especially during the pandemic.
