NLC, a Navratna PSU<br />

dedicated employees and 10000<br />

contract workmen to grow and<br />

develop and thrive in a dynamic<br />

environment, with open plan<br />

working space for everyone. NLC<br />

itself with the transformation<br />

to the Organisation<br />

comes only from the core developments<br />

keep pace with the changing scenario<br />
