ANGUL: Mahanadi Coalfields Limited, as a public sector undertaking, must keep people’s interest in mind while opening new mining projects like the one in Chhendipada, said Union Minister of Education and Skill Development Dharmendra Pradhan.
Addressing a public meeting at Chhendipada on Monday after laying the foundation stone of a permanent campus of Kendriya Vidyalaya in Subhadra area, Pradhan said the land acquisition for coal mining in Angul is very easy unlike in other parts of the country.
