Industries will be scared to invest if harsh steps are taken: Jagan Reddy on Visakapatnam gas leak

Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy on Thursday said industries will be scared to invest in the state if harsh steps are taken against them amid Visakapatnam gas leak incident.
The chief minister was interacting with senior executives of industries, including the South Korean automaker KIA Motors India.
The YSRCP leader said his government has reached out to the affected people and carried out an evacuation and hospitalisation programme.
He further added that the state will bring a law on pollution control as part of the 'ease of doing business' measures.
The deadly gas leak incident at the LG Polymers plant in Visakhapatnam earlier this month had claimed 12 lives.
