Solution

The correct option is C Mysuru Iron and Steel Industries Limited
Karnataka has rich and abundant iron ore deposits, especially in the Bababudangiri hills among many others.

Sir M. Visveswaraiah planned South India’s first-ever Iron and Steel industry known as Mysuru Iron and Steel Industries Limited or MSIL. It was set up at Bhadravati in Shivamogga district in 1923.

Sixty six years later, this industry was handed over to Steel Authority of India Limited or SAIL. Today it is known as Visveswaraiah Iron and Steel Limited or VISL.
