The matter came to light when the Justice BP Katakey (Retd) committee submitted its 31st interim report in the court on Thursday. It was established a few years ago to recommend government measures on matters related to coal.

Earlier, the Meghalaya Basin Development Authority (MBDA) had recorded 1,839.03 MT of coal at a depot in Diengngan village in Ri-Bhoi district. However, during a recent inspection, only 2.5 MT of coal was found along with residue and traces of coal.
