National Aluminium Company Limited (NALCO), an Indian state-owned aluminum giant, is facing a short supply of coal as the coal supply is diverted to priority power generation areas and the trains to deliver fuel to NALCO power plants are also short.

To ensure the coal supply for utilities and solve widespread power outages across the country, India has diverted coal supply from the non-energy sector and stopped some plans for fuel auctions.

Due to the shortage of trains to deliver coal to utilities, the coal supply problem is worsened, leading to widespread power outages across India.

NALCO Officers' Association is alleging the Indian government and various state agencies of their poorly plans and taking legal action over coal supply shortages.
