(1.79)
Tables 20 & 21 give the trend in fatal and serious accidents in coal mines due to different
causes during the year 2009 followed by graphical representation. As can be seen 31(37%) of
fatal accidents were caused by transportation machinery (other than winding), 26(31%) due to
ground movement, 14(17%) due to machinery other than transportation machinery, 5(06%)
due to falls other than ground movement, while electricity contributed 2(2.5%) and gas, dust
etc. contributed
2(2.5%). 636 serious accidents occurred during the year out of which
