The Central Bureau of Investigation will soon write to coal producing state governments seeking to know the basis of their recommendations given to private companies who were allocated coal blocks between 2006 and 2009. The agency in its prima facie investigation has found some material which shows that several ineligible companies had allegedly got the coal blocks during the period, CBI sources said. 

The CBI is now trying to ascertain whether these companies were recommended by the state governments as per the norms and parameters or there was a violation, they said. The agency will be writing to Chief Secretaries of all the coal producing states which are the members of Screening Committee which short-lists the companies for allocating coal blocks in the country, said the sources. 

The CBI is undertaking humongous task of scanning over 70 trunks of documents related to coal block allocation which are lying with coal ministry before filing any FIR in connection with the case. CBI sources said the investigations in coal blocks are huge because of documentation and spread of these blocks across number of states. They said 1422 application for 64 coal blocks were received by the coal ministry between 2006 and 2009 from 146 private companies and all these documents have to be scrutinised. 

They said the agency will also examine the members of screening committee to understand any alleged irregularities in the allocation. The CBI had initiated a preliminary enquiry in connection with the alleged irregularities in the utilisation and allocation of coal blocks allocated to private companies between 2006 and 2009.
