    Board’s Report | Report on Subsidiaries | Annual Report on CSR | Secretarial Audit Report ANNUAL REPORT ON CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY (CSR) [Pursuant to Section 135 of the Companies Act, 2013 read with Rule 8(1) of the Companies (Corporate Social Responsibility Policy) Rules, 2014] 1. A brief outline of the company’s CSR Policy, including overview of projects or programs proposed to be undertaken and a reference to the web-link to the CSR policy and projects or programs: The mines of South Eastern Coalfields Limited are located in different parts of the States of Chhattisgarh & Madhya Pradesh, and are relatively in isolated areas with little contact to the outside society. Coal mining has profound impact on the people living in and around the areas where the mines are established. The obvious impact of the introduction of any production activity in such areas changes the traditional lifestyle of the original inhabitants and indigenous communities and also changes the socio- economic profile of the Area. Hence, the primary beneficiaries of CSR should be land oustees, Project Affected Persons (PAPs) and those staying within the radius of 25 Kms of SECL establishment. Under privileged section of the society living in different parts of states in which the company is operating should be secondary beneficiaries. In view of the above, a CSR Policy has been approved by Coal India Limited for all its subsidiaries and is available on the company’s website at http://www.secl-cil.in/forms/list.aspx?lid=745 The key areas of activities covered in 2017-18 under CIL CSR Policy are as below: a) Healthcare programs like conducting village health camps, construction of special units in hospitals etc.
