Back Ground:
Ministry of Coal (MOC) has allotted Machhakuta coal block on February 6, 2006 to Maharashtra State Power Generation Company Limited (MSPGCL) and
Gujarat State Electricity Corporation Limited (GSECL) for developing an opencast coal mine for power generation at linked power plants at Koradi, Chandrapur,
Parli, Paras and Bhusawal in Maharashtra and Ukai and Wanakbori in Gujarat.Mahaguj Collieries Limited (MGCL), a Joint venture of MSPGCL and GSECL
signed a MOU on December 30, 2005 to extract coal from Machhakuta Coal Block, Talcher Coalfields, Machhakuta, Tehsil Chhendipara, District Angul,
Orissa.The total estimated cost of the integrated project is about Rs. 3400 Crores.
