He said, along with increasing production, ensuring coal dispatch to the power sector is also included in his priority.

The CIL Chairman further said, the import of non-coking coal will decrease due to increase in coal production and this will also save foreign exchange. He said, at present India imports 160-200 million tonnes of non-coking coal from other countries. He also said that CIL is starting two new power plants including MBPL's 800 MW power plant in Mahanandi Company.
