THE Assam government has detected 220 rat-hole coal mines in the Umrangso area of Dima Hasao district even as the flooded coal mine still has 11 crore litres of water, said Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma.
Sarma said according to the initial assessment of Geological Survey of India, Coal India Limited, Oil India Limited, National Disaster Response Force and Indian Navy, the mine had 14 crore litres of water.
"The mine still has 11 crore litres of water. Officers working on the ground told me it will take 25 to 60 days to pump out the water at the current speed. The cabinet has given approval for continuous dewatering in the presence of Army engineers till we reach a logical conclusion," Sarma said.
"After an examination, we found that the area has 220 mines. Based on satellite imageries, we will try to find out their origins," he added.
