Recent article because Energy Minister is for it now; "State Minister for Energy and Mineral Resources Nasrul Hamid said that coal mining will be done by
ensuring underground water management. Rehabilitation and employment of the locals will also be
ensured. He said that if there is a coal mine in that region, crop production will decrease by BDT 5
thousand crore annually. On the contrary, coal worth about BDT 70 thousand crore will have to be
imported in the future."
