Coal gasification
India possesses more than 200 billion tonnes of proven coal reserves and nearly 400 billion tonnes of total geological coal resources, making it one of the most coal-endowed nations in the world.
In a major bid to boost flagging economic growth and increase bank credit flow, the Union Cabinet on Tuesday accorded approval for a massive recapitalisation plan for state-run banks worth Rs 2.11 lakh crore.
Of this amount, a sum of Rs 1.55 lakh crore will be raised through recapitalisation bonds, Financial Services Secretary Rajiv Kumar told reporters here following a meeting of the Cabinet.
