This area is KGF of Jharkhand! Coal is stolen indiscriminately, even in the rain, and then the goods go to Bihar by bicycle - coal theft by digging tunnel in Kabirabad mines in Baniyadih

Coal thieves stole millions of coal by creating a tunnel in the Giridih Kabrida mines. The organized gang has been making illegal mining since the 80s. Thieves enter the tunnels and withdraw coal and send them to different places by cyclists. CCL management can do nothing but register a fir. Dialogues Associate, Baniyadih. Coal theft in CCL Giridih area is not new. Organized gangs have been digging out illegal coal since the 80s. Under the protection of organized gangs, they picked up coal at CP -Sykant of CCL and sold it in different places. Now this coal is not just theft, it has become a coal theft. The morale of coal thieves and their mentor -coalmafia increased so much that a long tunnel was dug near Kabrebad mines. The tunnel is dug from a few hundred meters, not 20 – 50 meters. In this, millions of coal are removed every day and are sent by bicycle, scooter and bicycle to different places. Organized gang does this black feat and CCL management can do nothing except to register a fir. In this way, CCL management seems to be completely unsuccessful with the stop of theft of coal. The previous day, the colleague of Jagran reached the place near Cabaribad Mines, from where millions of tonnes of coal thieves took out. In addition, officials and staff of the CCL Security Department also reached here. In many places, the dilapidated tunnel was seen that the tunnel opened by the thieves is quite wide. According to experts, the thieves excavated about two and a half km. Apart from this great gallery, thieves have made a lot of gallery in different places. In one place there is also a gallery of three floors. Hundreds of thieves enter the tunnel and after talking to CCL’s security guards, it was also found that hundreds of thieves enter every day after 11-12 hours. The number of women in thieves is also quite high. Everyone has an iron tool of coal excavations as well as sticks. These thieves live in large numbers and protest like risking life. If a guard tries to protest against them, he is also beaten. It was also learned that the thieves live from late night to morning. Coal sources go to Bihar-Dhanbad. Illegal harvest workers have been found to do laborers and be re -dumped in nearby areas. After this, coal is loaded on bicycles, scooters and taken to various places in the Giridi district, except many places in Dhanbad. A dozen bike coal is also sent to Bihar. This whole work is done under the protection of organized mafia. Among these mafia, there are some such patrons that are considered little in society. On this basis, the mafia filled the idea. A major accident can occur at any time, the way illegal mining is running near Kabreed mines. Here, thieves do the work to evacuate coal in an unprotected way. The way the gallery becomes long and wide. As a result, a major accident can happen at any time. People can also die in the accident. Experts believe that the path that goes from Barwadih to Baniyadih is also sunk for similar illegal mining. Also sank many times. Passenger is panicked. These illegal tunnels must be closed so that CCL does not regret later. Management is constantly working on its level to combat coal shoot in the Giridih area. Security is more repaired. Our best effort is that we have met from our level with SDM and SDOP. There is also a question of help. The administration also ensured the full help to prevent coal theft and illegal mining. CCL not only needs to prevent coal theft near Kabridar bath mines, but also to start coal production of Giridih Opencast mines in the coming days. We will be able to stop coal dates based on collective efforts. Girish Kumar Rathore, GM, CCL, Giridih area.
