The Secretary (Mines) desired that based on the IBM status paper, actionable points for implementing the vision statement may be identified. He also opined that some kind of tax benefit may be extended for mining entrepreneurs who are practicing value addition of ROM(Run-Of-Mine) ore.

III. As enunciated in National Mineral Policy 2008, Shri Trivedi directed that Business Development Plans for sub-sectors relating to copper, aluminium, lead & zinc, chromite and rare earth may also be prepared for devising strategy for these minerals. In this context he directed IBM to expedite the process of appointment of consultants for the purpose.

AAP’s attack on BJP headquarters and acts of arson committed under the very noses of their elite leadership; the attacks on Arvind Kejriwal and Manish Sisodia in Gujarat in the last two days; the recent manhandling of the caretaker of journalist Siddharth Varadarajan’s house by some garden variety thugs; and the violence and threats meted out regularly to their political opponents by political parties is surely deplorable and condemnable.
