Written from the 1 report below. Nothing here is unsourced.
- Heavy rains halted coal excavation at five opencast projects of Singareni Collieries Company Limited in Mancherial and Kumram Bheem Asifabad districts of Telangana for two days.
- The disruption affected coal extraction and overburden removal at projects in the Mandamarri, Bellampalli and Srirampur areas, causing a production loss of around 40,000 tonnes.
- Machinery such as shovels and dumpers remained idle due to slushy conditions, and heavy-duty pumps were deployed to drain stagnant water.
- Despite the halt in mining, the company says coal supplies to power-generating stations, including its thermal power station at Jaipur in Mancherial district, have been kept uninterrupted from coal yards.
What to watch next
- Whether mining operations resume once the rains recede
- Further production losses if the rainfall continues
- Whether coal supplies to power stations remain uninterrupted from coal yards
