New Delhi (26.04.2022): The government has made it clear that MECL is to be merged with CMPDIL. The government is planning to merge Central Mine Planning and Design Institute Ltd (CMPDIL) with Mineral Exploration Corporation Ltd (MECL).

The Ministry of Coal has clarified that CMPDIL is a subsidiary of Coal India Limited (CIL) that provides exploration and consultancy services primarily to the coal sector.
