The coal ministry on Wednesday said it is in the process of finalising a robust mine closure framework on three major aspects institutional governance; people and communities; and environmental reclamation and land re-purposing on the principles of just transition.
The ministry is in consultation with the World Bank for obtaining support and assistance in this programme, the coal ministry said in a statement.
Vast experience of the World Bank in handling mine closure cases in different countries will be highly beneficial and will facilitate the adoption of the best practices and standards in handling mine closure cases.
