As per a leading financial daily, the national coal distribution policy, which is almost three years old may get overhauled. As per the coal minister, the ever growing demand of coal from power sector has made the mineral's supply very limited to other sectors. The new policy will help to manage the widening demand supply gap and depleting production of Coal India. If coal ministry has its way, then soon a new distribution policy may be in place. It will serve comprehensive coal linkage needs of core and non-core sectors by introducing flexibility in coal supply to meet the growing demands of these sectors and promote energy security.
