Indian Steel to integrate into Sri Lanka

Sri Lanka’s High Commissioner to India, Milinda Moragoda, recently met with Jindal Steel and Power Limited Chairman Naveen Jindal in New Delhi to discuss investment opportunities in Sri Lanka. The meeting was part of Moragoda’s ongoing engagement with large-scale Indian investors and corporate leaders.

Jindal Steel and Power Limited, a prominent Indian steel company based in New Delhi, is part of the Indian conglomerate OP Jindal Group. It is the third-largest private steel producer in India in terms of tonnage and the only private company in India to produce rails.

During the meeting, Moragoda presented Jindal with a copy of the publication “Geoffrey Bawa; Drawing from the Archives,” which features the drawings of Sri Lanka’s late iconic architect, Geoffrey Bawa.

Jindal, who previously served as a Member of the Lok Sabha, the lower House of the Indian Parliament, representing the constituency of Kurukshetra, Haryana, is also the Chancellor of O. P. Jindal Global University.

The discussion between Moragoda and Jindal focused on the investment opportunities available in Sri Lanka. The meeting comes as part of Sri Lanka’s efforts to attract more foreign investment and promote economic growth.
