Cooperation Minister Banwari Lal today said measures were being taken by the government to strengthen the financial condition of cooperative sugar mills in the state.
He was at Shahabad to kick off the sale of ethanol from the Shahabad Cooperative Sugar Mills Limited. A 60-KLPD (kilo litre per day) ethanol plant was started at the sugar mill at a cost of Rs 99 crore last year. The minister flagged off ethanol-carrying trucks from the mill.
