Business Responsibility & Sustainability Reporting

“All that we get (earn) from the soil of Sandur in one form or the other should be primarily used to benefit Sandur… The Mining Lease is something that has to be held in Trust for the benefit of those who are working so hard for many years, with so much faith and determination. This is not anybody’s private property, but a sacred social responsibility, in which each one of us has to function as Trustee for the toiling workforce.”

- M. Y. Ghorpade, Founder Patron
