In India, the steel production industry requires the import of
-
A.
saltpetre
-
B.
rock phosphate
-
C.
coking coal
-
D.
All of the above
Correct Answer:
C. coking coal
Explanation:
In the context of steel production in India, the industry requires the import of coking coal. Coking coal is a crucial raw material used as a fuel and a reducing agent in the smelting of iron ore in a blast furnace to produce steel. India imports a significant portion of its coking coal needs due to limited domestic availability of high-quality reserves.
Saltpetre and rock phosphate are not directly related to steel production.
Therefore, the correct answer is (c) coking coal.
