On November 12, Prime Minister Narendra Modi will travel to Ramagundam in Telangana to dedicate and lay the cornerstone for numerous projects totaling more than Rs 95 billion.
The Prime Minister reportedly laid the foundation stone for the Ramagundam project on August 7, 2016. The prime minister's goal to become self-sufficient in urea is the impetus for the revitalization of the fertilizer factory. The Ramagundam plant will produce 12.7 LMT of natural, neem-coated urea annually.
Ramagundam Fertilizers and Chemicals (RFCL), a joint venture of National Fertilizers (NFL), Engineers India (EIL) and Fertilizer Corporation of India, has been established to oversee the project (FCIL). The task of building the new ammonia-urea plant, which required an investment of more than Rs 63 billion, was entrusted to RFCL. Gas will be supplied to the RFCL plant through the Jagdishpur, Phulpur and Haldia pipeline.
