New Delhi, Mar 6 (IBNS): Union Minister of Steel Birender Singh laid out five focus areas for maximising the use of steel, the Ministry of Steel announced on Monday.

According to the Minister, the way forward for the industry involves concentrating on Production and Productivity (P), Research and Development (R), Indian Steel (I), Demand of Steel (D) and Excellence of Quality (E).

He said that these five aspects or PRIDE will help in maximising the usage of steel.

The Union Minister inaugurated the maiden regional conference of Eastern States, on the theme of ‘Enhancing steel consumption in India’ in Gangtok, Sikkim, on March 2.

The minister said that considering India's low per capita steel consumption at 61 Kg against the world average of 208 kg, leaves room for improving the domestic steel consumption.
