Seven coal projects have received letters of acceptance from Coal India (CIL), and will be pursued with the help of mine developers and operators (MDO). These initiatives together have a manufacturing capability of around 100 million metric tonnes annually (MT/Y).
The goal of involving MDOs through public global bids is to boost domestic coal production and, to the greatest extent possible, lessen reliance on imports.
A total of fifteen Greenfield coal projects are being tracked by the state-owned coal miner for MDO coal mining. The investment portion of CIL will total Rs. 20,600 crore, with the majority of that amount going toward land purchase, rehabilitation, and resettlement difficulties. occasionally on railroad sidings as well.
The engagement duration is for 25 years, or until I die, whichever comes first.
