Coal India CMD S Bhattacharaya has asked employees to raise production, the key performance criterion, in sync with the company’s targets as it looks at producing a billion tonnes of the dry fuel by 2020 while ensuring quality of the supplies. <\/p>\n
“Coal production is the most important performance criterion and primarily focus should be on taking it to a higher trajectory,” Bhattacharaya said in a letter dated October 19 to the CIL employees. <\/p>\n
“We have the requisite technology and proficient professionals in handling it. Our efforts should be to raise production levels in sync with the targets,” he said. <\/p>\n
Stressing upon the need for supplying quality coal, Bhattacharaya said that it is as essential as providing the requisite quantity. <\/p>\n
“The pressing need of the hour for us is to be more consumer centric. This is not a choice but an imperative… So, supplying quality coal is an essential ingredient in our business chain and we should be proactive in this endeavour,” the letter said. <\/p>\n
Sizing, washing and correctly grading the coal supply are primary tasks before the PSU and these ingredients are simply non-negotiable, Bhattacharaya said. <\/p>\n
“However, safety has to be a priority concern in all our operations. In quest of enhanced production, safety of miners, mines and machinery should never be compromised,” he said. <\/p>\n
The government has set an ambitious one billion tonnes of production target for CIL by 2020.
\nCoal India accounts for over 80 per cent of the domestic coal output. <\/p>\n
Coal and Power Minister Piyush Goyal had earlier said CIL will produce at least 50 million tonnes (MT) more coal in the current fiscal than the last financial year. <\/p>\n
He had said that last fiscal, CIL added 32 million tonnes, more than the cumulative growth of four years. <\/p>\n
CIL achieved an output of 229.54 MT in the first six months of the current fiscal, missing its target of 235.49 MT. <\/p>\n
Coal India’s output target for the current fiscal stands at 550 MT as against the recorded figure of 494.23 MT last fiscal. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
