The CEA reported 58 plants with critically low stocks by 5th September, up from 46 in August.

• Jharkhand Cabinet Meeting Postponed The Jharkhand Government has postponed the cabinet meeting scheduled for 25th September under Chief Minister Hemant Soren. The next date will be announced later.

• Rakesh Mohan Warned of Falling Mining Jobs in Jharkhand Prime Minister’s Economic Advisory Council member Rakesh Mohan said coal production and mining jobs could decline in Jharkhand and other mining states over the next 20-25 years due to climate change and automation.

He also stressed rural development, labour intensive industries and manufacturing to create future employment opportunities.

• Jharkhand Govt. to Hold Special Assembly Session Over Mineral Cess The Jharkhand Government will hold a two day special Assembly session on 5th and 6th October to oppose the MMDR amendment ending states’ power to impose mineral cess.

• HEC Started Process to Appoint Internal Auditor HEC has started the process of appointing an independent internal auditor to strengthen financial monitoring. Proposals have been invited from chartered accountant or cost accountant firms. The auditor will review financial transactions, purchases, payments, stores, contracts and departmental expenses. The move follows concerns over internal audit practices and aims to identify financial risks and strengthen transparency and internal controls.

• Steel Prices Rise to Four Year High on Strong Demand Domestic steel prices have reached a four-year high due to expensive coking coal and stronger post-monsoon demand. According to BigMint data, hot-rolled coil and cold-rolled coil are trading at Rs. 64,000 and Rs. 75,000 per tonne, respectively. Since 1st August, their prices have risen by Rs. 6,000 and Rs. 8,500 per tonne, with further increases expected.

• Bank Strike to Disrupt Branch Services for Five Days Banks are set for a three day nationwide strike from 28th to 30th September after talks between bank unions, the Central Labour Commissioner and the Department of Financial Services failed. With 26th and 27th September being the fourth Saturday and Sunday, branch services could remain affected for five days. Cash transactions, cheque clearing and other counter services may be disrupted, while digital banking is expected to continue.

• Jharkhand Contributes 3.6% of India’s Mineral Production A NITI Aayog report on India’s non-coal mineral sector said Jharkhand contributes 3.6% of the country’s total mineral production, led by bauxite, iron ore, copper and graphite. Odisha accounts for the largest share at 38.4%. The report highlighted delays in environmental clearances, land acquisition and starting auctioned blocks, and suggested faster approvals and improved auction processes.

• India’s First Mineral Exchange May Start Operations Next Financial Year India’s first mineral exchange is expected to be registered and become operational by the next financial year. Mines Ministry Additional Secretary Veena Kumari Dermal said the registration process is currently underway. She shared the update while addressing the 60th annual general meeting of the Federation of Indian Mineral Industries, signalling a new platform for the country’s mineral sector.

• Jharkhand Govt. Plans Supreme Court Challenge to Mineral Bill The Jharkhand Government plans to challenge the Centre’s mineral amendment bill in the Supreme Court. The Mines Department has sent the file to Chief Minister for final approval after obtaining legal opinion. The government argues the amendment could deny Jharkhand around Rs.14000 crore in revenue, affecting development projects and undermining its mineral cess collection rights.
