- 5 years ago
The Supreme Court on Wednesday cancelled 214 of the 218 coal blocks allocated by the successive governments since 1993 and gave the companies awarded coal licences six months to wind up their operations.
Four blocks run by the central government agencies have been spared the axe. "214 coal block allocations have been cancelled. Four coal blocks remain, two of which belong to Steel Authority of India and the National Thermal Power Corporation," Attorney General Mukul Rohatgi said.
"The Supreme Court has said that the government can auction all cancelled blocks at the end of six months in March, 2015," Rohatgi said.
