I couldn't decide which drivelling thread to insert this, so decided to start afresh.

Dot 1: February - During MPA legal review, ECT provided a project briefing to the  Secretary of Coal, Susheel Kumar, who holds the distinction of leading negotiations on behalf of India at the 2015 Paris climate summit.
Given the potential significance of the project to enhance India’s future economic, energy and resource security while contributing to its environmental commitments under the Paris climate agreement, the parties determined it was essential to escalate the project to the NITI Aayog (National Institution for the Transformation of India Committee)

ECT Managing Director Ashley Moore noted, “This view from the Secretary of Coal Shri Susheel Kumar reinforces the position we’ve consistently taken; that Coldry and Matmor represent a significant opportunity to support economic, energy and resource security while addressing emissions intensity. And while this is a very recent and unexpected development, and notably will require additional time ahead of signing the MPA, the Company welcomes the positive exposure this referral brings to the project at the highest level of India’s government..."

Dot 2: Yesterday - Shri Piyush Goyal, presided over the inaugural session of the day-long Workshop on ‘Quality of Coal’... Speaking in the inaugural session, Secretary of Coal, Susheel Kumar  informed the gathering that the ministry is focusing on 4 important areas including safety, quality, environmental protection and diversification into new areas using latest technology. Shri Kumar said that he would be personally tracking progress on these 4 parameters every 15 days.

Dot 3: Yesterday - The Minister of Steel speaking at the National Conference on Secondary Steel Producers said ... worldwide, mini-mills are becoming popular and we want to establish such plants and mills in India. This is cost-effective, environment-friendly and energy efficient. These thrust areas are as important for secondary steel producers, as these are for integrated steel producers. Steel plants in secondary sector have many advantages like less land requirement, lower capital investment, better energy efficiency, proximity to users and less dependence on logistics."

Secondary steel producers make 58% of the steel produced in India.
