However, as a matter of abundant precaution, Management has decided to close the plant indefinitely till the root cause is thoroughly analysed, reviewed and necessary further safety measures to be taken are fully evaluated in addition to current safety precautions.

GNFC believes in the principle of 'Safety First' and hence, this decision to close TDI-II Plant indefinitely is taken till the process of necessary preparations, putting in place further checks & balances and thorough evaluation is over.
