(SHRI PIYUSH GOYAL)
(a): State-wise and coal company-wise details of roads by which coal is transported is enclosed at Annexure-A
(b) & (c): Law & Order is a State subject, hence primarily it is the responsibility of the State/District administration to take necessary deterrent action to stop/curb theft/pilferage of coal. Coal is being dispatched to its customers by trucks and once the weighed coal is out of the colliery premises, it is between consumers and the transport contractors for safe delivery of coal to the consumer premises. However security escorts is provided up to premises of subsidiaries of Coal India Limited.
CIL subsidiaries have taken following steps to prevent theft/pilferage of coal:
• RFID based Boom Barriers and CCTV camera at weighbridges, GPRS based vehicle tracking system with geofencing, CCTV camera at strategic locations of all mines have been installed.
• Regular FIRs are lodged by the Colliery Management and CISF with local Thana. A close watch on the activities of criminals is being kept by CISF.
• Interaction and liaison with District officials at regular intervals and holding meeting with Officials of the State Administration.
• Challans for coal transportation by trucks outside the district are being issued after fixing hologram and putting signatures of authorized officials of CISF to check pilferage.
• Armed Guards have been deployed at Railway sidings.
• Escorting of coal rakes in coordination with RPF upto weighbridge, is arranged in pilferage prone areas.
• Surprise re-weighment of coal loaded trucks is done at weighbridges.
• Surprise checks / raids are conducted by flying squads of CISF/security department.
• Regular patrolling is conducted in and around the mine including OB dumps.
• Joint patrolling with local police is also being carried out in pilferage prone areas.
• Check posts have been established at entry / exit points where all coal laden vehicles are physically checked.
• Security at coal dumps has been strengthened by fencing, proper illumination and round the clock guarding.
The Government of India has launched one mobile app namely “Khanan Prahari” and one web app Coal Mine Surveillance and Management System (CMSMS) for reporting unauthorized coal mining activities so that monitoring and taking suitable action on it can be done by Law & Order authority.
