(1.)EnvironmentalGreen belt will be developed within the plant premises covering a total area of about 17 acres (33 % of total area) and also in the buffer zone. This will not only help to create healthy environment in the area but also acts as pollution sink. Further avi-fauna population of the area will increase.
(2.)SocialWith the implementation of the total project, the socio-economic status of the local people will improve and infrastructure facilities like roads, communication systems, drinking water, etc. will also develop. The land rates in the area will escalate due to the project. This will help in upliftment of the social status of the people in the area. Educational institutions will also come-up and will lead to improvement of educational status of the people in the area. Medical facilities will certai
(3.)FinancialThe company’s management will recruit semi skilled & unskilled workers from the nearby villages, thereby improving in the social status of the villagers. It creates employment opportunities to 100-110 No's directly &200 No's indirectly. Further, the management will support the local administration and provide other form of assistance for the development of public amenities viz., water distribution, building of school rooms, health centres, Education programme, Health camps, Agricultural program
