DR. CHELLAMELLA SUGUNA KUMARI (PEDDAPALLI): Sir, nearly one lakh twenty thousand coal miners are working in Singareni Colleries Company Ltd. which is in my constituency, Peddapalli. The Regional Coal Miners Provident Fund Office is located in Hyderabad which is about 250 kms. away from the main area of Godavarikhani, Ramagundam and Mandawary. So, if the CMPF Office is shifted to Godavarikhani, Ramagundam and Mandawary area, it would be of great help to the miners.
Hence, I request the hon. Minister of Coal to take necessary action to shift the Office from Hyderabad to this area.
