  • C.Orissa, Madhya Pradesh and Tamil Nadu
  • D.West Bengal, Madhya Pradesh and Tamil Nadu

Answer: A

Bihar, Orissa and West Bengal account for over 90 per cent of coal production.

The Gondwana coalfields - Jharia, Bokaro, Raniganj and Talcher - lie in the Damodar and Mahanadi valleys within those states, and hold nearly all India's good coking coal. Jharkhand was carved out of Bihar in 2000.
