The Odisha government is expediting the establishment of the proposed AMNS India steel plant in Kendrapara, signaling a major boost for the state's industrial and economic growth. State Food Supplies and Consumer Welfare Minister Atanu Sabyasachi Nayak confirmed that all clearances are being prioritized to ensure the timely execution of the project.
The plant, backed by ArcelorMittal Nippon Steel (AMNS), is expected to generate significant employment opportunities and enhance the state's manufacturing ecosystem. With a planned capacity of 24 million tonnes per annum (MTPA), it stands to become one of India’s largest integrated steel facilities. The project includes an associated captive port, creating added momentum for logistics and export potential.
Officials emphasized that the government is committed to facilitating smooth land acquisition and infrastructure support. The project aligns with Odisha’s long-term vision of becoming a global steel production hub, leveraging its rich mineral resources and growing industrial base.
Industry stakeholders see this as a transformative step for Kendrapara and a strategic win for the state’s Make-in-India push. The AMNS plant is not only expected to spur local development but also attract auxiliary industries and investments.
