Performance of SECL Bhatgaon Area for the first quarter of financial year 2024-25,,,,,,
The performance of SECL Bhatgaon area in the first quarter of the financial year 2024-25 (April 2024 to June 2024) was excellent in coal production, productivity and transmission. In the first quarter from April 2024 to June 2024, the area achieved the coal production target of 9 lakh 8 against a thousand tonne
12 lakh 66 thousand 662 tonnes were produced which shows an increase of 62 percent compared to last year,
The region also created a new record in the work of soil removal (overburden). In the first quarter of the financial year 2024-25, while the production target was 61 lakh 80 thousand cubic meters, 87 lakh 43 thousand 997 cubic meters of soil was removed which was 41 percent more than the target.
The region also performed brilliantly in coal transportation. In the first quarter of the financial year, 13 lakh 21 thousand 575.01 tonnes of quality coal was transmitted which is 5 lakh 56 thousand 477.03 tonnes more than the same period of the previous financial year with an increase of 72.73%. This achievement was achieved despite the strict rules of approval of the Ministry of Environment and Forests. For the Shivani underground project, a letter has been sent to the Government of India for advance permission of the Ministry of Environment and Forests, which will be approved soon. This is a new ray of hope for the Bhatgaon region and workers.
While talking to us, General Manager Pradeep Kumar told us that achieving this goal and maintaining it in the future is of utmost importance. Many difficult stages were faced in achieving this goal. Some so-called journalists also left public interest journalism and published one-sided misleading news against me in digital media without knowing my side. The evil efforts of such people are still continuing. Such people also damaged national property with the aim of extortion and creating fear, against whom the case of damage suit is pending in the honourable court. I respect the press established as the fourth pillar of the Constitution, but in the name of journalism, leaving the issues of public interest and going after a particular person and publishing arbitrary news on one hand seems to be a blatant violation of the Indian Press Act. Mr. Kumar said that I always respect journalists with a healthy mind, whose writings establish justice in the society.
