Why the union min is visiting Chhattisgarh if there is no scarcity of coal: CM Bhupesh Baghel

Raipur: “The central
government has earlier stated that there is no shortage of coal. If there is no
shortage of coal then why the union minister is visiting Chhattisgarh. The central
government should accept that there is a shortage of coal and electricity”, said chief
minister Bhupesh Baghel on the Chhattisgarh’s visit of union coal minister Pralhad
Joshi.

Taking a dig at the
central government, the chief minister said that earlier there was a shortage of
oxygen, then fertilizers, and now coal too. The government has even failed to implement
small tasks.  

Meanwhile, union coal
minister Pralhad Joshi is on his visit to Chhattisgarh. He went to Bilaspur for the
inspection of Gevra mines. He told the media persons that there is no shortage
of coal in the county and coal is available in an adequate amount. The supply of electricity
will also not be interrupted.
