NEW DELHI, May 30 (Reuters) - India's Tata Steel wants to accelerate efforts towards decarbonisation in Britain, its chief executive said on Thursday, in the backdrop of trade unions voting to strike against the company's plans to cut jobs.

"We want to move fast and build the new electric arc furnace faster, so that's why for us the timelines are clear," Tata Steel CEO and Managing Director T. V. Narendran told Reuters in an interview. (Reporting by Neha Arora in New Delhi and Manvi Pant in Bengaluru; Editing by Varun H K)
