1. Why do you think that the iron and steel industry is basic to the industrial development of any country?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Iron and steel are basic to economic development of any country because they are the basic raw material for production of all other goods- both industrial and commercial. All other industries are based on the products manufactured from these industries. Until and unless iron and steel are produced, even a nail, which is basic to all constructions, cannot be manufactured.
