|
BHUBANESWAR, India - India's eastern Orissa state is seeking a ban on exports of all iron ore grades and the proposal is likely to be sent to the federal government in a month, the state's steel and mines minister said on Wednesday.
"We have to get the approval from the finance department and the chief minister. Then we will send a specific proposal to the government of India," Raghunath Mohanty told Reuters.
"It may take fifteen days to one month's time maximum," he said. (Reporting by Jatindra Dash; Editing by Aradhana Aravindan)
