Thar coal has reportedly been declared the most suitable and best for power generation through gasification. Older reports suggest that stocks of Thar coal are also enough to cater to the country's energy needs for 100 years. By exploiting this plentiful local coal, the country may become self-sufficient when it comes to gas.

This is surely good news for the nation and the federal government needs to pay attention to this great opportunity so that the country sees a considerable boost in the economy
