With
an objective to enhance transparency and accountability as a part of the Ease
of Doing business in the Mining Sector, Union Minister of State (IC)
for Power, Coal, New & renewable energy and Mines,
Shri Piyush Goyal will launch TAMRA (Transparency,
Auction Monitoring and Resource Augmentation) portal
and Mobile Application here on 10th February, 2017. Ministers of
Mining and senior officers from 12 mineral rich States would also be connected
through Videoconferencing.
In
context of Prime Minister , Shri Narendra Modi’s Ease of Doing Business
Initiative, which advocates facilitating overall business activity in India, the
Ministry of Mines has developed the TAMRA Portal
and Mobile Application which is a step to
speed up mining activity in India and facilitate all the stakeholders to track
the status of the statutory clearances associated with mining blocks for
getting mines to reach till operationalisation for the same. TAMRA will be an
interactive platform for all the stakeholders to compress the timelines for
statutory
and other
clearances
as it would help minimize the gestation period
for commencing production.
Further,
TAMRA covers block–wise, state–wise
and mineral–wise
information of the blocks to be auctioned, monitors various statutory
clearances, and also highlights the additional resources generated through e–Auction. In
case of
delay
in obtaining any clearances, TAMRA will send triggers to the
concerned authority so that the remedial steps can be taken immediately by
those responsible. The
Ministry of Mines will also receive triggers generated by TAMRA and will facilitate
in expediting
clearances. This
portal also enables successful bidder to give suggestions/inputs.
The TAMRA
Flowchart is as follows:
