Efforts have been made to increase coal availability from all sources (CIL, SECL, Captive) in coordination with Ministry of coal (Moc). Although coal supply hs increased during Q4, it is not adequate to meet the unprecedented increase in the demand of electricity, Similarly efforts have been made to address logistic issues in coorporation with Ministry of Railway (MoR).
