Bokaro, Jan. 10: Learning a lesson from the Godda mine mishap, Bokaro deputy commissioner R.M. Ray has sent out notices to Bharat Coking Coal Limited (BCCL), Central Coalfields Limited (CCL), Damodar Valley Corporation (DVC), Parbatpur coal mines, ONGC and Directorate General of Mines Safety (DGMS) to provide lists of all collieries under them and the precautions taken to prevent any calamity.

Ray, also the chairman of the district disaster management committee, has sought details on 11 points, including complete list of underground and open cast mines, overburden dumps, safety measures, disaster audits, mock drills with photos, names of nodal officers and their substitutes, the reporting structure during crisis, fire safety apparatus, disaster management plans and training programmes. The entities will also have to submit lists of all accidental and risky spots falling in their zones.

They have been given 21 days to file the interim report while the final one has to be submitted within 60 days.

Copies of the notice, which was issued on Monday evening, have been sent to the secretary of the steel ministry, chief secretary, secretary of Jharkhnad's mines department, DVC chairman, SAIL chairman, CMDs of BCCL and CCL besides CEO of Bokaro Steel.

On Tuesday, DC Ray convened a high-level meeting with officials of DGMS, Dhanbad, general managers of coal companies and DVC at his office, where he spelt out the guidelines to ensure mine safety.

"We must take lessons from the Godda mine accident and work on plans to check such disasters in the future," Ray said after the meeting.

Congress's Godda district president Deepika Pandey today wrote to President Pranab Mukherjee, asking him to prod the state government to initiate a CBI probe into the cave-in at ECL's Lalmatia colliery. Pandey, who is on a hunger strike since January 9, alleged that the government and ECL failed to ensure safety norms and that work had started in the risky zone.
