Authorities said on Sunday they had resumed acquiring land for South Korean steelmaker POSCO's planned $12 billion steel mill in Odisha state under tight security, a day after three protesters were killed by crude bombs.
POSCO announced plans for the mill on a fertile strip of India's east coast seven years ago but there has been little progress, largely because of opposition from farmers and battles over environmental clearance.
