Bharat Coking Coal Limited reported a fatal accident on May 29, 2026, at its New Benidih Hired Patch of Amalgamated Block-II OCP mine. A dozer operator from a contractor died after a dozer toppled down when the edge of a haul road slid due to heavy thunderstorm, lightning, and heavy rainfall. Operations at the New Benedih Patch have been temporarily stopped while other patches of the mine continue normal operations. The incident has been reported to authorities and a detailed investigation is underway to determine the exact cause.
The temporary suspension of operations at one patch may have a limited impact on overall production since other mine patches are operating normally. The accident highlights operational safety risks during adverse weather conditions.
