Telangana BJP Launches Singareni Bharosa Yatra
Hyderabad: Telangana Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) President N Ramchander Rao on Monday said that the party, along with the Union Ministry of Coal and Mines, has launched the ‘Singareni Bharosa Yatra’ to highlight the Centre’s allocation of Tadicherla-2 coal block to Singareni Collieries Company Limited (SCCL).
Speaking to ANI, Rao said the allocation will strengthen SCCL and support its long-term financial growth. “Telangana BJP along with the Union Ministry of Coal and Mines is doing away with the Singareni Bharosa Yatra in which the Singareni collieries were recently allotted Tadicherla-2 block.
This is a big step towards Singareni’s profit-making unit. “Today, we will visit all areas within the Singareni Mine Enterprises belt, meet with the employees there and thank the Prime Minister,” he said.
BJP MP DK Aruna also welcomed the Centre’s decision and said Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Coal and Mines Minister G Kishan Reddy had boosted the confidence of Singareni workers through the allocation.
“Prime Minister Modi and Coal Minister Kishan Reddy have instilled confidence in Singareni workers by allocating the Tadicherla coal mine to Singari. This decision will not only give confidence to the workers but will also bring huge benefits to Telangana,” he said.
The BJP leaders’ remarks came amid reports claiming that around 40 lakh tonnes of coal worth around 1,600 crore had gone missing from SCCL.
