Mogae receives Indian mining magnates

Sudir Mehta of Torrent and Dilip Mehta of Rosyblue proceeded to hold talks with other relevant ministries later in the day. 

Sudir, whose company is also exploring opportunities of investing in power generation, met with officials of the Botswana Power Corporation. Torrent is keen to mine coal in Botswana mainly for export to India where Sudir says demand is "enormous".
After the exploratory meetings, Sudhir, who is the Chairman of Torrent, said after learning of Botswana's vast coal reserves, his company was ready to invest $500 (approximately P3.1 billion) to develop a mine here.
