 "Supreme Court of India")
The Supreme Court on Tuesday issued notice to Parsa Kente Collieries (PKCL), a subsidiary of Rajasthan Rajya Vidyut Utpadan Nigam (RRVUNL), and sought PKCL’s reply to a petition seeking cancellation of the Parsa, Kente extension coal block allocated to it. Infrastructure giant Adani Enterprises is the mine developer-cum-operator (MDO) for PKCL.
The petition, moved by non-profit organisation Common Cause, alleged that Adani Enterprises and RRVUNL were in a joint venture (JV), which was in contravention of a 2014 order of the top court.
In 2014, the Supreme Court had cancelled 214 of the 218 coal blocks allocated to various companies since 1993.
