Battle over Indian steel mills

...Kalinga Nagar, in the eastern state of Orissa,...[in] 20 years' time, according to a government plan...will become a 13,000 acre industrial centre, with more than a dozen factories producing 25 million tonnes of steel a year... It is home to tribes people...who are among the poorest of India's rural poor... The only problem is that many of the people living in Kalinga Nagar...do not want to make way for the new factories. [refers to Tata Steel (part of Tata Group)]
