As heavy rains continued to lash the Kothagudem coal belt region, the overburden removal operations in the Opencast Projects (OCPs) of the Singareni Collieries Company Limited (SCCL) in Kothagudem area came to a virtual halt resulting in severe coal production loss due to extensive waterlogging on the premises of the OCPs. Sources said that the Gouthamkhani Opencast Project (GKOCP) area at Rudrampur near Kothagudem recorded a heavy rainfall of 88 mm on Monday. Heavy downpour pounded the JVR and Kistaram Opencast Projects in Sattupalli mandal in the last 24 hours hampering the overburden removal and coal production operations for the second day in a row, sources in SCCL said.More Related News
