At a review meeting held here on Saturday on coal production, overburden removal in the opencast mines, coal transportation and other related issues, the CMD said the region comprised mines in the Kothagudem, Sathupalli, Yellandu and Manuguru Areas.
He instructed the agencies to arrange adequate machinery and manpower to meet the targets. He said Singareni would need to supply 75,000 tonnes of coal every day to Telangana Genco thermal power stations to meet the energy demand in view of the El Nino conditions.
The company must also transport coal to power stations with which it has fuel supply agreements.
