Speaking to Bloomberg TV India, Union Minister Piyush Goyal said he plans to seek approval for the next round of coal auctions.
India has now turned coal surplus and there are no shortages for the fossil fuel. In renewables, Goyal exuded confidence India would attain the target of 20,000 MW by 2017, five years ahead of schedule. This year, India will seek bids for 15,000-18,000 MW of solar projects, he added.
