India: The state government of Himachal Pradesh has invited tenders for the Chamba cement plant project for a second time. To attract sufficient bids the government has also decided to build a US$2m road to the project site, according to the Times of India newspaper. Other rules and regulations surrounding the project have also been relaxed. All of the clinker used at the plant must be produced in the state and a quarter must be ground into cement in the region. The project has a proposed budget of US$140m. It has been in development since 2002.
