Coal India unit starts production at 12 mtpa mine in Jharkhand

CIL has struggled to raise output fast enough to meet rising demand from power companies

Reports stated that Coal India has started production at a 12 million tonnes per year mine, which should help boost supplies to fuel-starved power plants.
CIL has struggled to raise output fast enough to meet rising demand from power companies, the report added.
CIL unit Central Coalfields took almost a decade to start digging out coal from the Amrapali open cast pit in the eastern state of Jharkhand, mainly due to delays in land acquisition and lack of a railway network to connect the mine.
