Production normal despite strike: CIL

Officers of the world's largest miner Coal India Ltd went on a three-day strike today but a company official said that the production is "near normal".

"The officers are on strike but production is near normal as senior executives are coordinating coal production," CIL Director (HR) R Mohan Das told PTI.

The Coal Mines Officers Association of India is observing three-day strike demanding implementation of a variable pay system announced earlier and a new pension scheme.
