The Coal Ministry today informed Parliament that aluminium company NALCO were not supplied the full quantity of coal they contracted from state-run Coal India during the April-June, 2011 period.
"CIL has reported that during April-July, 2011, dispatches to NALCO's captive power plant... were 1.828 million tonnes (MT) against the pro-rata Annual Contract Quantity (ACQ) of 1.91 MT," Minister of State for Coal Pratik Prakashbapu Patil said in a written reply to a question in the Rajya Sabha.
For the current fiscal, the minister said, Coal India Ltd (CIL) has offered to supply 447 MT of coal to power utilities, subject to the availability of wagons from the Railways.
Dispatches could have been better but for the frequent law and order problems..(besides) constraints of wagon availability in comparison to indents in certain coal fields in the third and fourth quarter of the previous year," Coal Minister Sriprakash Jaiswal had said.
