Coal imports will stop by FY25, that's Modi government's guarantee: Prahlad Joshi
Friday, 5 January 2024
India will become self-sufficient in thermal coal in the next financial year as domestic production is set to top a billion tonne and will rise further to meet future demand, coal and mines minister Prahlad Joshi said on Friday. On the power ministry's order asking generation units to import coal for blending with domestic fuel, Joshi said he was aware of the circular. "I feel it was done as a precautionary measure. Though it is there, we are fulfilling our annual contracts, sometimes delivering more," he said.
