The company distributed Provident Fund, Gratuity, payments towards Group Gratuity Scheme and also handed over Pension Sanction Orders.
On this occasion, NC Jha, CMD-SECL and Director-Technical, Coal India said, “I’m happy to be the part of this function. We are here to honour the retiring employees who have given their lion’s share in the progress of this Company to achieve the distinction to become the first coal subsidiary company to produce 100 million tonne of coal. This achievement could only be possible because of unity and cooperation amongst the employees of SECL.”
