says minister  TNN Sep 14, 2009, 10.24pm IST  ALLAHABAD: There
is no shortage of coal in the power sector as the Union
government is importing coal from Australia and South Africa,
Union coal minister Shripraksah Jaiswal while talking to
reporters at the Circuit House on Monday.  He said that coal
mafias should be controlled. There is corruption in the coal
sector. He said that steps are being taken to check corruption.
He said that CBI raids have been conducted recently to unearth
corruption.  Jaiswal criticised the Mayawati government for
installing statues in different parts of the state and wasting
the hard earned money of the public. He said that if Mayawati
was so eager about name and fame, then she should have
constructed medical colleges and hospitals for the benefit of
masses.
