PM to review coal, power projects after GoM meet

Prime Minister Manmohan Singh will hold a meeting to resolve inter-ministerial differences relating to environment clearances for coal and power projects after the Group of Ministers meet on July 14.
“The Group of Ministers meeting is scheduled on July 14. So, depending upon the outcome of that, the PM’s review meeting will be held,” a senior coal ministry official said.
The official added that the dates were yet to be decided for the meeting, which has been postponed four times since May.
Besides reviewing the performances of key sectors like coal and power, the PM’s meeting is likely to deliberate upon solutions to resolve the tussle between environment, coal and power ministeries on the contentious issue of green clearances for infrastructure projects.
Earlier, softening its stance, the Jairam Ramesh-led ministry had cleared in June six coal blocks, which included five coal blocks falling in ‘no-go’ mining areas for three major power plants in Orissa.
