CHENNAI: Electricity Minister V Senthil Balaji has urged the central government to provide more rakes for transporting coal so that Tangedco could meet its need.“At present, around 35 rakes are being dispatched from Talcher mines, leading to severe congestion on Paradip route. Among them, a maximum of only 14 rakes (around 50,000MT) are moved for Tangedco. So, it is essential to improve the situation,” he said.
