Coal Ministry to Launch Digital Exploration Module

The Ministry of Coal will unveil a digital Exploration Module on the Single Window Clearance System (SWCS) on 4 July 2025. Developed with CMPDIL, the module digitises the end-to-end coal exploration approval process—from submission to clearance—ensuring faster, transparent decision-making.

This addition enhances SWCS, which already hosts Mining Plan, Mine Opening, and Clearance modules integrated with NSWS and PARIVESH. The portal has reduced proposal processing time by 50%, bolstering India’s energy security and e-governance vision.
