Ire over inter-State iron ore sales

PTI Updated - September 02, 2011 at 09:49 PM.

The Opposition today continued to stall the Jharkhand Assembly proceedings, demanding scrapping of the Cabinet decision to allow inter-State sale of iron ore ‘fines', forcing adjournment of the House twice before lunch.

Members of the Opposition parties, who had disrupted the House proceedings on August 30 on the same issue, squatted in the Well, demanding that the government immediately withdraw the Cabinet decision, allowing lease-holders to sell iron ore ‘fines' up to 10 mm size from Jharkhand to other States.
