ET reported that Sterlite Copper expressed hope that it will resume operations in the next couple of months at its Tutocrin plant which was shut after 13 people died during protests a year ago. On May 22, 2018, anti-Sterlite protests turned violent with the agitators fighting pitched battles with the police and 13 people were killed in police firing.
The first anniversary of the incident was observed in Tuticorin Wednesday, with scores of locals turning up to remember the victims.
Sterlite Copper CEO Pankaj Kumar told PTI over phone that "We are hopeful of starting the plant in next couple of months.”
The protesters were demanding the closure of Vedanta''s Sterlite Copper unit in Tuticorin over pollution concerns.
Mr Kumar, however, was of the view that "high current was created by some vested interests to show that we are not complying to environment. But the fact is that we are much below the standard set up by pollution control board."
He further said the company has incurred financial losses to the tune of USD 400 million till date due to closure of operations at its smelter unit at Tuticorin.
