AUTHORITY SET UP FOR THAR COAL MINING
The federal government has set up a provincial coal authority by abolishing two federal and provincial agencies to expedite mining and development of Thar and other coal deposits in Sindh.
A formal notification to this effect has been issued by the Prime Minister’s Secretariat, technically empowering the provincial government to take all decisions relating to coal development and power generation in consultation with provincial and federal agencies.
Headed by Sindh chief minister, the authority will comprise the federal minister and secretary of water and power, a provincial minister, Sindh chief secretary and the managing director of the Thar Coal Authority.
