The power ministry has urged the ministry of coal to take steps for increasing output by 10 to 12 per cent from Coal India Ltd NSE 0.47 % and its arm Singareni Collieries Company Ltd (SCCL) this fiscal year as electricity outages are hurting economic revival.
“Power ministry has asked the coal ministry to raise CIL’s and SCCL’s output for the power sector by at least 10-12 per cent in the current financial year to ensure uninterrupted power supply and prevent any outages that could hurt country’s economic revival,” a source said.
