HAZIRA, Sept 21: The flood-ravaged Oil and Natural Gas Corporation ONGC which shut its plant four days ago, resumed production at 2 pm today.

Tears rolling down their cheeks, the 740 officers and staff at the ONGC Complex here, including Additional Executive Director S Bhalla and Group General Manager Prasad, broke a coconut to mark another auspicious beginning.

Operations were suspended on Thursday after swirling waters breached walls on three different sides; at some points, the water rose six feet high. Prasad said all the water had since been pumped out and efforts were on to make the plant operational on a war-footing.
