Kashipur -Odisha People in the Kansariguda area are seeing steady progress in the Aditya Alumina Refinery project by Hindalco. Along with the construction work, the company is also supporting nearby villages through activities in health, education, livelihoods, infrastructure, and community development, reaching more than 18,000 people. Locals believe the project will bring good opportunities in the future, especially for jobs and better facilities.
