"Government is serious in making country's steel industry globally competitive where private investors would play a vital role," Tripathy told PTI on the sidelines of award ceremony of Safety, Health and Environment in steel industry. The National Steel Policy would provide a boost to the steel sector and it would be a comprehensive policy taking into account all the issues relating to growth, he said. The ministry has appointed a small expert group to prepare the draft proposal for the National Steel Policy, who would be submitting the draft within the next three months, steel secretary AK Agrawal said.
