India is currently the second largest producer of carbon emissions in the world. China at number 1 Both countries have the adverse effects of air pollution. The number of people who are masked face is increasing day by day. In India's capital, air pollution is deadly. Coal is the most important role behind this, many places in India which are considered as precious as gold.

According to Business Insider's report, about 11 lakh people die every year in India's air pollution. However, from 2006-06 to 2016, the usage of coal in the country increased by 3.1 percent to 3.1 percent. India has not yet found a suitable alternative to coal-fired and power supply.Eprothomalo

India is competing with China in various fields, including foreign and military. Maybe Narendra Modi's country does not want to be behind the coal use. Most of India's big coal blocks in the eastern region of the country. British magazine 'Economist' says India has used additional 27 million tonnes of coal last year. Usage in comparison to the previous year was 4.8 percent. Due to the increase in the use of coal by the two countries, carbon emissions are not decreasing worldwide. India-China, helping to build coal-based power plants in the neighboring countries of India, is not only stopping by themselves. From Bangladesh, Pakistan to Philippines or South Korea, many countries have increased the use of coal. Basically, at the low cost, electricity is being used by coal to see the coal in the eyes of everyone.

Being able to see the coal in the eyes of both eyes is also compulsory to wear a nose mask. There is no possibility of changing the situation soon. According to the 2015 law published in the medical journal 'Lancet', about 9 million deaths occurred worldwide due to pollution. The Asian countries responsible for half of it. It has been found that 25 lakh deaths out of this 90 lakhs have happened in India and this is the largest part of the country. Coal is mainly responsible for the calamity of India's climate.

The total amount of electricity produced in the whole world is from coal, 38 percent comes from coal. This is the biggest source of electricity. In the last 20 years, this sweet and lightning has not rattled completely. Although many options like gas and renewable energy come before the people, but no country wants to release coal. The International Energy Agency (IAA) says it will not be able to release India in the next two decades as a measure to meet the energy demand of energy or energy.

India has reasons to be so desperate. Industrialization in the country is fast It requires a lot of power. In addition, electricity has not reached in many parts of the country yet. In an article published in 'Guardian', it has been claimed, yet about 200 million people in India are under privileged power.

While signing the Paris Treaty to prevent climate change, India has taken several steps to take action. At that time it was thought that the demand for electricity in India would increase nearly threefold between 2012 and 2030. India has no alternative except coal to meet this growing demand at a relatively low cost. If the country continues to use coal at the present rate, it will not be difficult for India to get rid of China in terms of carbon emissions.

What is India doing?
India is trying to get out slowly from coalition. But this is such a tragedy that the country needs to eat a lot of food to find the effective way to rescue. India seeks alternative ways to generate electricity

Prior to the Paris Treaty, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi had told the world that by using renewable energy, the country's target of producing 175 gigawatt electricity by 2022. The bulk of the demand is upwards to 227 gigawatt increase in that target. Hopefully, the cost of production of wind and solar power has fallen by almost 50 percent in the past two years. But at that rate, the government of India did not weaken. In the opposite coal-based power plant, patronage and investment are increasing. The government is also taking expensive projects of renovated coal-based power plants.

'Economist' says three quarters of India's electricity is being produced from coal. Depending on coal, there is a large number of people taking their livelihood. 3 million 70 thousand people working in the state organization, Col India. In all, half a million people are involved in the whole coal industry. Coal India is trying to increase coal production rather than reduce it. The company wants to go 1 billion tons from 560 million tons in 2017 to 2020.

Political scientist Rohit Chandra wrote a book on coal industry in India. He thinks one to 15 million people depend on coal for consumption. Again, coal-related firms in the eastern states of the country provide various facilities to roads, water supply and local people. However, in this remote and poor areas the government has not played a significant role. Consequently, the general public's view of coal is somewhat positive. So, if there is any extreme decision about this, people will have to cope with it.

Why India Wants Coal?
After the partition of India in 1947, the Indian government released coal blocks to private entrepreneurs. But due to unplanned mining due to a serious accident in various mines, all miners were then nationalized. The liability of the coal boom is now only the government.

'Economist' says the coal has entered into India's politics and economy too. It is associated with the costly method of renewable energy production and technical limitations.

First of all, in the states of India, mine is one of the most regulated coal in local politics. For example: 40% of India's total mineral resources are in Jharkhand. It is one of the five poor states in the country's Modi country. Maoists are quite active in Jharkhand, political unrest, murders Analysts believe that coal is one of the reasons behind this. The money received from coal provides funding for political parties in the mining area. As a result, the source of money is close, and there is no desire to control the politicians.

Secondly, the economy. After nationalization of the coal blocks, the government leased them in some cases. The huge amount of loan taken from the corrupt bureaucracy and the state-owned bank is involved in it. Due to these, losses of about 33 billion dollars from the Indian government between 1993 and 2010 have been damaged. On the other hand, loans from many state-owned banks have been invested in coal blocks. Again, the profitable business of coal has got entailed by many non-government organizations. These state-owned banks or financial institutions will remain in the list of victims if the coal industry is shrinking. The amount of such losses is so huge that it is not surprising that some public and non-governmental corporations become bankrupt. It should be remembered that this will have adverse effects on the economy of the whole country.

Thirdly, the use of renewable energy as a substitute for coal and some technical constraints in the production of electricity remain. The transit from it is time-consuming. Again, the production of wind and solar power incessantly, is not entirely possible in India due to climate change. Because all the regions of the country do not have the necessary sunlight or suitable wind of the year. And after the production of electricity in an environmentally friendly alternative, it needs both time and money to change the old grid system so that it can be transported.

Political scientist Rohit Chandra says that coal is deeply attached as an important catalyst in Indian state. If this relationship is so deep and complex, it would be necessary to withstand severe political opposition.

India is not sitting at all. Karnataka's largest center has been set up in Karnataka to generate electricity through renewable energy. According to a report by Quartz India, 12.3 gigawatts of electricity are being produced in all. Of these, air, solar and other renewable energy are also being used. So, the impact of climate change on the Indian government has not come to the fore, it can not be said. But in that case there are some real and some interest-related obstacles, that work is not being widely available.

'Economist' has said, Arvind Subramaniam, who has been working as an economic adviser to the Indian government, said in the current year, a large part of the money invested in coal industry was borrowed from the banking system. Some of these loans have been framed. These are a big risk for Indian banking system or economy.

According to the analysis of 'Guardian', the Indian government thinks they could not join the first two industrial revolution. But participated in the digital revolution. Now the government wants to move towards renewable energy and green energy production. The government is also feeling encouraged due to the low cost of solar and wind power.

Arvind Subramaniam, however, does not think India will be able to completely withdraw from the coalition. At least this will last 10-15 years.

Center for Financial Accountability, a India-based think tank, says that in the year 2007, the government of India has increased the coverage of coal-fired projects to three times as compared to renewable energy projects. And public banks directly involved in this investment.

Ajay Mathur, an official of the Energy and Resources Institute of the research institute, said, "If we want to get rid of coal from India, we will have to reduce the prices of electricity generated by using renewable energy." If this price is safer than coal, only concerned people will be interested, or not.

In other words, if the coal wants to leave, it can not be released from India. It has been involved in politics, economy and many other things. The whole thing has become complicated. Environmentalists are still waiting for the hope. But that hope can be true, because of the impact of pollution and climate change, more lives, who knows!
