The Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs (CCEA), which is likely to meet on February 5,2013, Tuesday, may take up the issue of relocation of power major NTPC's proposed North Karanpura project in Jharkhand to another site in the state, given that the earlier proposed site was on potential six billion tonnes of coal reserves. The Coal Ministry in this regard had earlier circulated a note to various ministries seeking their comments. It added the alternative site is proposed near Kanhakala village in Jharkhand.
Earlier, towards this development, a Group of Ministers (GoM) had last year constituted a sub-panel to look into demands of relocation of the project. The panel, headed by Planning Commission Member B K Chaturvedi, had suggested two options, relocating the proposed plant or reducing the plant size. The GoM had then accepted the option of making the proposed plant smaller.
However, the Coal Ministry in its note stated that Group of Ministers' decision needs to be reconsidered due to huge coal reserves at the existing site of the proposed plant.
