Govt asks coal block owners to take necessary steps to operationalise mines
The government on Tuesday asked coal block owners to take necessary steps to operationalise mines that are at an advanced stage of commissioning.
In FY24, India might produce 145 Million Tonnes (MT) of coal from commercial and captive blocks, that would help bring down the country’s import of fossil fuel.
M Nagaraju, Additional Secretary and Nominated Authority, Ministry of Coal, chaired a review meeting of producing and expected to produce captive and commercial coal mines during 2023-24.
