Mr. Jindal is the Executive Vice Chairman & Managing

most efficiently run steel company in the world. The company
is a part of the over Rs. 10,000 crore Jindal Organisation.
The company has the world's largest coal-based sponge iron
capacity and has established a Rail & Universal Beam Mill,
which is manufacturing world's longest 120 metre rails and
parallel flange beams & columns in larger sizes for the

The project would supply the cheapest power as compared to

Mr. Jindal has also been a crusader. He single-handedly took
up the cause of restoring in Indians a national pride, choosing
the Tricolour as his symbol. As a result of his decade long
struggle, the Hon'ble Supreme Court in a historic judgment
on 23rd January 2004 held that the right to fly the National
Flag freely, with respect and dignity is a Fundamental Right.
