India seeks to cut power sector coal imports by 30% this year, sources say

India plans a significant reduction in thermal coal imports for its power plants. The government is urging power producers to blend more domestic coal, aiming for a cut of at least 15 million tons this year. This move supports increased domestic production and aims to reduce reliance on foreign supplies. While challenges exist, authorities assure improved quality of local coal.
