S. Rajasekhara Reddy]] in June 2010 to a joint venture of AP Minerals Development Corporation Ltd (APMDCL) and Rakshana Consortium, a private company.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2012-06-12/hyderabad/32194434_1_rakshana-steels-bayyaram-joint-venture|archive-url=https://archive.today/20130629125329/http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2012-06-12/hyderabad/32194434_1_rakshana-steels-bayyaram-joint-venture|url-status=dead|archive-date=2013-06-29|work=[[The Times of India]]|title=Andhra govt cancels Bayyaram mining lease}}</ref> It was cancelled by Chief Minister, [[Kiran Kumar Reddy]] in June, 2012 and allotted it to VSP in April 2013.<br />
