TALCHER: In the absence of land to expand the mining operation, the 20-million tonne capacity Bhubaneswari opencast coal project at Talcher is facing imminent closure.
The land constraint has been a longstanding issue for the project. For the work to move ahead the villagers of Zillinda would have to be displaced, says a coal official.
