CHAPTER: IV

Contravention of Environmental Laws

[ I ]

Importance of Environment–ignored

1. Under the law, as it stands today, if Environmental

Clearance is not obtained or if there is violation of

its conditions, then matter is to be dealt with

seriousness. EC conditions are required to be

strictly complied with for the ultimate benefit of the

society. Its non implementation results to health

hazardous which may, on occasions, violate right to

life guaranteed under Article 21 of the Constitution

of India. Further, it affects the natural ecosystem as

well as pollutes water and air and causes damages

to life.

Since ancient time, in our country, we believe

in maintaining environmental balance. In this

reference, it is relevant to quote what it has been

said in “Atharva Veda” as published in Times of

India, Ahmedabad Edition, on Earth Day:–

“Prayer has been made to Mother Earth that she

blesses us with the knowledge required to enjoy the

treasures of the nature without disturbing the

environmental balance.”

Page 4: FIRST REPORT ON ILLEGAL MINING OF IRON AND MANGANESE …

Similar was the culture as stated in Chuang

Tzu 17. The quotation was as under:–

“A horse or a cow has four feet. That is Nature. Put a

halter around the horse’s head and put a string

through the cow’s nose that is man. Therefore, it is

said, “Do not let man destroy Nature. Do not let

cleverness destroy destiny the natural order.”

Secondly, Article 48A of the Constitution of

India – a directive principle of the State Policy

should be followed in letter and spirit. The said

Article reads as under:–

“State shall endeavor to promote and improve the

environment and to safeguard forests and wild–

life of the country.”

Thirdly, it is one of the duties of the citizen as

well as the State to protect and improve the natural

environment including forests, lakes, rivers wild–

life, and to have compassion for living creatures, as

provided under Article 51A(g) of the Constitution.

Every creature has reasons to exist on earth.

2. Effect of degradation of environment (Ref.: K. M.

Chinnappa v/s. Union of India, [AIR 2003 SC

724]:––

“By destroying nature, environment, man is

committing matricide, having in a way killed Mother

Earth.

… …

The seminal issue involved is whether the

approach should be ‘dollar friendly’ or ‘eco friendly’.

… …

There is no quiet place in the white man's cities.

No place to hear the unfurling of leaves in spring or

the rustle of in insect's wings. But perhaps it is

because I am a savage and do not understand. The

clatter only seems to insult the ears. And what is

there in life if a man cannot hear the lonely cry

of the whippoorwill or the arguments of the

frogs around a pond at night?

… …

Environment is polycentric and multi–facet

problem affecting the human existence. The

Stockholm Declaration of United Nations on Human

Environment, 1972, reads its Principle No.3, inter–

alia, thus: “Man has the fundamental right to

freedom, equality, and adequate conditions of life. In

an environment of equality that permits a life of

dignity and well being and bears a solemn

responsibility to protect and improve the environment

for present and future generations.”

The Declaration, 'therefore, says that' in the

developing countries, most of the environmental

Page 6: FIRST REPORT ON ILLEGAL MINING OF IRON AND MANGANESE …

4

problems are caused by underdevelopments. The

Declaration suggests to safe actions with prudent

care for ecological balance. It is necessary to avoid

massive and irreversible harm to the earthly

environment and strife for achieving present

generation and the posterity a better life in an

environment more in keeping with the needs

and hopes.

… …

The word “environment” is of broad spectrum

which brings within its ambit “hygienic atmosphere

and ecological balance.” It is, therefore, not only the

duty of the State but also the duty of every citizen to

maintain hygienic environment. The State, in

particular has duty in that behalf and to shed its

extravagant unbridled sovereign power and to forge

in its policy to maintain ecological balance and

hygienic environment. Article 21 protects right to life

as a fundamental right. Enjoyment of life and its

attainment including their right to life with human

dignity encompasses within its ambit, the protection

and preservation of environment, ecological balance

free from pollution of air and water, sanitation

without which life cannot be enjoyed.

… …

Environmental law is an instrument to protect

and improve the environment and to control or

prevent any act or omission polluting or likely to

pollute the environment. In view of the enormous

challenges thrown by the industrial revolution, the

legislatures throughout the world are busy in this

exercise.

… …

Since time immemorial, natural objects like

rivers enjoyed a high position in the life of the

society. They were considered as Goddesses having

not only the purifying capacity but also self–purifying

ability. Fouling of the water of a river was considered

a sin and it attracted punishments of different grades

which included, penance, outcasting, fine, etc.

… …

When the necessity to promote the environment

turned grave, doubt was expressed by some

commentators whether the issue of the environment

would last. They have been proved wrong, since it is

clearly one of the big issues, perhaps the biggest

issue of the 1990s. It is a big issue in political terms,

since protection of the environment is high on most

people's priorities for the 1990s. As a result political

parties and Governments are falling over each other

in their eagerness to appear green, even if as yet

their actions rarely match their rhetoric. It is big in

terms of the size of the problem faced and the

solutions required; global warning, the destruction of

the ozone layer, acid rain, deforestation,

overpopulation and toxic waste are all global issue

which require an appropriately global response. It is

big in terms of the range of problems and issues air

pollution, water pollution, noise pollution, waste

disposal radioactivity, pesticides, countryside

protection, conservation of wildlife the list is virtually

endless.”

Decisions of the Hon’ble Apex Court on the subject

with regard to obtaining of EC and violation of its

conditions:––

The law on the subject with regard to obtaining of

EC and violation of its conditions are elaborately

discussed in the First Report for the State of Odisha.

However, it is to state here that:––

(i) Sustainable development is one of the means to

achieve the object and purpose of the Act as well as

the protection of ‘life’ under Article 21.

Acknowledgment of this principle will breath new

life into our environmental jurisprudence and

constitutional resolve. Sustainable development

could be achieved only by strict compliance of the

directions under the Act. The object and purpose of

the Act – “to provide for the protection and

improvement of environment” could only be

achieved by ensuring the strict compliance of its

provisions. The concerned authorities by exercising

its powers under the Act will have to ensure the

acquiescence of sustainable development. Therefore,

the provisions or conditions put forward by the Act

need to be strictly complied with. Thus the power

Page 9: FIRST REPORT ON ILLEGAL MINING OF IRON AND MANGANESE …

7

under the Act cannot be treated as a power

simpliciter, but it is a power coupled with duty. It is

the duty of the State to make sure the fulfillment of

conditions or direction under the Act. Without strict

compliance, right to life under Article 21 could not

be guaranteed and the purpose of the Act will also

be defeated. The commitment to the conditions

thereof is an obligation both under Article 21 and

under the Act. (Ref.: N. D. Jayal and ors. versus

Union of India and ors., [AIR 2004 SC 867])

(ii) The grant of lease for mining and approving of

mining plan and the scheme by the Ministry of

Mines, Government of India by itself does not

empower that mining operation can be commenced.

It cannot be accepted that by approving Mining Plan

and Scheme by Ministry of Mines, Central

Government is deemed to have approved mining

and it can commence forthwith on such approval.

Section 13 of the MMRD Act and the Rules made in

exercise of powers under the said section, deal, inter

alia, with the aspect of grant of mining of lease and

not commencement of mining operations. Rules

made under Section 18, however, deal with

commencement of mining operations and steps

required to be taken for protection of environment

by preventing or controlling any pollution which

may be caused by mining operations. A mining

Page 10: FIRST REPORT ON ILLEGAL MINING OF IRON AND MANGANESE …

8

lease holder is also required to comply with

other statutory provisions such as Environment

(protection) Act, 1986, Air (Prevention and

control of Pollution) Act, 1981, The Water

(Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1974,

Forest (Conservation) Act, 1980. Mere approval

of the mining plan by Government of India,

Ministry of Mines would not absolve the lease

holder from complying with the other

provisions. (Ref.: M. C. Mehta v. Union of India &

Ors. [(2004) 12 SCC 118])

(iii) On the principle of sustainable development, no

mining activity can be carried out without remedial

measures taking place. For this purpose, it is

necessary that environment impact assessment is

done and the applications dealt with before any

mining activity can be permitted. (Ref.: M. C. Mehta

v/s. Union of India, I.A. No.1967 in I.A. No.1785

in Writ Petition (C) No.4677 of 1985, dated

08.05.2009)

Page 11: FIRST REPORT ON ILLEGAL MINING OF IRON AND MANGANESE …

[ III ]

Non–compliance of Statutory Conditions/provisions

1. To comply with the EC conditions under various

Acts and Rules, it is the prime duty of the

concerned officers/authorities empowered under

the provisions of the Water (Prevention & Control of

Pollution) Act, 1974; the Air (Prevention & Control of

Pollution) Act, 1981; the Environment (Protection)

Act, 1986 and the Public Liability Insurance Act,

1991 along with their amendments and Rules to

enforce the provisions of environmental laws

and stipulated conditions of Environmental

Clearance. At the same time the Deputy Directors/

mining officers at district level should ensure that

mining do not commence without compliance of the

conditions.

2. It is to be stated that the relevant provisions of the

aforesaid Acts and Rules made thereunder have

been discussed in detail in the First Report of the

Commission for the State of Odisha.

3. It is worthwhile to highlight that when any lessee

desires to operate / establish any mine, he has to

mandatorily obtain prior Consents under the Water

and Air Acts. If any mining lease is operated or

Page 12: FIRST REPORT ON ILLEGAL MINING OF IRON AND MANGANESE …

10

established without having consents under the

provisions of the Water Act, 1974; Air Act, 1981 and

notification, it amounts to violation of the said

provisions, attracting penal liability and individual

liability for closure.

4. Further, when a party desires to establish or set up

certain undertakings, establishments or processes,

such party is required to have certain prior

permissions including ‘Consent to Establish’ and

‘Consent to Operate’ under the aforesaid two Acts

and other permissions relating to Environmental

Clearance under the Environment Protection Act,

Forest Clearance under Forest (Conservation) Act,

1980, permissions from local authorities, such as,

the Municipality, the Corporation, the Planning and

Development Authority under the Town and

Country Planning Act, Panchayat Body under the

Panchayat Raj Act, so on and so forth, as the case

may be, wherever applicable.

5. In addition, whenever the party fails to obtain the

requisite Consents from the Pollution Control Board

under the Air and Water Acts or violates any

condition imposed thereunder or does not comply

with the conditions imposed by the Board in the

Order of consent to operate, then the Pollution

Control Board can prohibit / issue closure

Page 13: FIRST REPORT ON ILLEGAL MINING OF IRON AND MANGANESE …

11

directions in terms of Law or even withdraw/

revoke the Order of Consent and also initiate

prosecution against such lessees.

Allowing to continue and non initiation of

prosecution against the violators (lessees) has

caused fear free atmosphere and opened the doors

for illegalities.

6. The Mines Department, being a competent

authority to allow mining, is required to be

satisfied that all the clearances/approvals are

obtained by the lessee before operation of

mining commences. The burden to ensure that the

party has obtained all the necessary permissions for

the purpose of carrying on or undertaking an

activity, is an essential the duty of the State

Government through the Department of Mines.

Mines Department is required to ensure that no

mining is carried out until all other permissions

required under all other laws are obtained.

Further, the role of the respective District

Collectors should also be examined by the Chief

Secretary and action should be taken accordingly

whether he has failed to exercise powers under the

lease deed agreements.

Page 14: FIRST REPORT ON ILLEGAL MINING OF IRON AND MANGANESE …

12

7. Moreover, all other Authorities which are required to

give individual permissions/clearances having

regard to the provisions of their respective Acts and

Rules under which they are set up and the kind and

nature of the permissions/clearances required

under those Acts and Rules, shall monitor matters

arising within their own jurisdictions and are

required to take action in case of failure to comply

with the conditions.

Facts found from the record reveal that this

has not been done by the concerned authorities.

Page 15: FIRST REPORT ON ILLEGAL MINING OF IRON AND MANGANESE …

EIA Notification dated 27/01/1994 and

Amendments.

1. At the outset, it is to be stated that various EIA

Notifications, amendments made thereunder and

Circulars issued by the Ministry of Environment

and Forests, have already been quoted in the First

Report of the Commission for the State of

Odisha and therefore the same are not reiterated.

2. However, it is pertinent to state here that:––

(i) For mining of iron and manganese ores, in any

new project or the expansion or modernization

of any existing iron ore and manganese mining

operations can not be undertaken without

getting prior Environmental Clearance from

MoEF under the EIA Notification dated

27/01/1994. That means, prior approval is a

condition precedent and for its violation, action

is required to be taken.

(ii) Even for modernization expansion of existing

projects or activities, enhancement of

production of likewise as stated in the EIA

Notification 1994 and 2006 approval of the

Page 16: FIRST REPORT ON ILLEGAL MINING OF IRON AND MANGANESE …

14

Central Government is must. For this purpose,

there should be –

(a) Environmental Impact Assessment

Report;

(b) Environmental Management Plan;

(c) for Environment Impact Assessment,

there should be public hearing; and

(d) Approval from MoEF for environmental

clearance.

If the approval conditions are

violated and approval is not obtained, the

lease would liable to be closed with other

consequential penalties/recoveries, etc.

Page 17: FIRST REPORT ON ILLEGAL MINING OF IRON AND MANGANESE …

15

[ V ]

Precautionary/Polluter Pays Principles

1. At the outset, it is to state here that:––

(i) the authority shall firstly implement the

‘Precautionary Principle’ so that there is no

environmental damage;

(ii) the ‘Polluter Pays Principle’ should be the

guideline for restoring the damage. In case of

damage, polluter shall be directed to pay

compensation for restoration of ecology and

environment; and

(iii) the polluter should be directed to pay

exemplary damages in cases of serious

violations.

2. Nobody bothers to implement the laws namely

“PRECAUTIONARY PRINCIPLE” and “POLLUTER

PAYS FOR THE POLLUTION”.

Polluter Pays Principle:–

Principle 16 of the Rio declaration states that:–

(i) “National authorities should endeavor to

promote the internalization of environmental

costs and the use of economic instruments,

Page 18: FIRST REPORT ON ILLEGAL MINING OF IRON AND MANGANESE …

16

taking into account the approach that the

polluter should, in principle, bear the cost of

pollution, with due regard to the public interest

and without distorting international trade and

investment.”

(ii) Further, “Polluter Pays Principle” means that

once the activity carried out is hazardous or

inherently dangerous, the person carrying on

such activity is liable to make good the loss

caused to any other person by his activity

irrespective of the fact whether he took

reasonable care while carrying on his activity

or otherwise.

(iii) It is quite obvious that:–

(a) the object of the above principle was to

make the polluter liable not only for the

compensation to the victims but also for

the cost of restoring of environmental

degradation;

(b) the polluter is also liable to compensate

for his act/s and to pay damages

(compensation) for restoration of the

environment and ecology and in both the

cases, compensation should be of such

Page 19: FIRST REPORT ON ILLEGAL MINING OF IRON AND MANGANESE …

17

amount which would have deterrent

effect;

(c) in addition to damages, the person guilty

of causing pollution can also be held

liable to pay exemplary damages so that

it may be deterrent for others not to

cause pollution in any manner [M. C.

Mehta V. Kamla Nath, AIR 2000 SC

1997]

3. In view of the aforesaid, it is to state here that the

measure of compensation must be co–related to the

magnitude and capacity of the enterprise because

such compensation must have a deterrent effect.

The larger and more prosperous the enterprise, the

greater must be the amount of compensation

payable by it for the harm caused on account of an

accident in the carrying on of the hazardous or

inherently dangerous activity by the enterprise.

(Ref.: M. C. Mehta & Anr. v/s. Union of India &

Ors., [(1987) 1 SCC 395])

4. Further, in the cases where without obtaining

Forest Clearance and/or Environmental Clearance,

persons who were in possession of the mines, have

extracted iron ore and manganese for the purpose of

export and domestic consumption with greed of

Page 20: FIRST REPORT ON ILLEGAL MINING OF IRON AND MANGANESE …

18

super profits by evading applicable taxes. This has

resulted in degradation of forest, pollution of water

& air, Rivers and connecting rivulets. In such cases,

the lessees / middlemen have earned billions of

rupees at the cost of national non–renewal assets.

It has been observed that illegal and non

sustainable mining is one of the most heinous

unpardonable crimes of humen race to commit

on mother earth.

5. Brief Summary

In view of the aforesaid Principles, it is

apparent that neither the ‘Precautionary Principle’

nor the ‘Polluter Pays Principle’ is observed or

thought over, while permitting extraction of iron

ore/additional extraction in various mines in the

State of Jharkhand. Nobody has bothered about it,

while permitting the persons extracting the iron ore

from the mines stated below.

(a) In the State of Jharkhand, in all 42 leases

leases of iron and manganese ores are having

the direct impact on the rivulets, nallas and

tributaries which are joining to Koro, Koina

and Sakaro Rivers as well as Kandi, Betlata

and Katrogara Nallas. The list of the said 42

leases is enclosed herewith as Annexure: I.

Page 21: FIRST REPORT ON ILLEGAL MINING OF IRON AND MANGANESE …

19

(b) Out of 42 mining leases, 18 mining leases of

Iron Ore and/or Manganese are not having

Environmental Clearance. The list of the said

18 mining leases is enclosed as Annexure: II.

(i) Out of the aforesaid 18 leases, in 08

leases, iron ore was extracted, since the

year 1993–94 to 2012–13. No EC has

been obtained till date. The list of the

said 08 mining leases is enclosed as

Annexure: III.

(ii) Out of the aforesaid 18 leases, in 02

leases, manganese ore was extracted,

since the year 1993–94 to 2012–13. No

EC has been obtained till date. The list

of the said 02 mining leases is enclosed

as Annexure: IV.

(c) It is to state that out of 18 leases, from 06

leases, a quantity of 4,89,201.23 MT (as per

DMG data) of iron ore has been extracted

illegally without having lawful authority (since

no EC was obtained). The list of such 06

mining leases is enclosed herewith as

Annexure: V.

All such production is to be considered as

illegal and without lawful authority. The

market value for iron and manganese ores is

Page 22: FIRST REPORT ON ILLEGAL MINING OF IRON AND MANGANESE …

20

required to be recovered under Section 21(5) of

the MM(DR) Act, 1957.

(d) There are 24 leases wherein much delayed

environmental clearance under EIA

Notification has been obtained. The list of the

said 24 leases is enclosed as Annexure: VI.

(i) Out of the aforesaid 24 leases, in 19

leases (delayed EC was obtained), iron

ore is extracted. The list of the said 19

leases is enclosed as Annexure: VII.

(ii) Out of the aforesaid 24 leases, in 04

leases, manganese ore is extracted. The

list of the said 04 leases is enclosed as

Annexure: VIII.

(e) It is to state that out of 24 leases, in 20 leases,

extraction of ore (iron / manganese) have been

taken place since 27.01.1994. The lessees

have obtained delayed EC under EIA

Notification which is taken into consideration.

The quantity of (as per DMG data)

11,87,81,132.183 MT of iron ore and

1,30,448.686 MT of manganese ore have been

extracted illegally without having lawful

authority (either there was no EC obtained for

the period or when obtained, the excess

quantity of ore was extracted above the limit

Page 23: FIRST REPORT ON ILLEGAL MINING OF IRON AND MANGANESE …

21

fixed by MoEF as per EC approvals). The list of

such 20 leases is enclosed as Annexure: IX.

All such production is considered as

illegal and without lawful authority. The

market value for iron and manganese ores is

required to be recovered under Section 21(5) of

the MM(DR) Act, 1957.

(f) 18 leases of iron and/or manganese ores have

been running under deemed extension and

carrying out production in violation of EIA

Notifications, 1994 and 2006, without having

EC under EIA Notifications.

Further, 22 leases of iron and/or

manganese ores have been running under

deemed extension and carrying out production

in violation of EIA Notifications, 1994 and

2006, with having obtained delayed E.C.

So, overall 40 leases are/were working

under deemed extension and doing production

in violation of EIA Notifications, 1994 and

2006. The list of the said 40 leases is enclosed

as Annexure: X.

As per submission dated 18.05.2011

[Para: 7 (m)] made by the Ministry of Mines,

Government of India to this Commission, the

Page 24: FIRST REPORT ON ILLEGAL MINING OF IRON AND MANGANESE …

22

leases operated under deemed extension

without statutory clearance under EIA

notification dated 27.01.1994 and

amendments therein for environmental

clearance is considered as illegal. Action

should be initiated to recover the value

equivalent to market value as per Section 21(5)

of MM(DR) Act, 1957. The said para, inter–alia,

reads as under:–

“Illegal mining” means:–

“7(m) Mining operations taken under a mining

lease which validly is deemed to be

extended under provisions of Rule 24A

of Mineral Concession Rules, 1960, due

to delay of State Government to take a

decision on renewal of the mining lease

in the stipulated time even after the

renewal application has been filed

timely, but without the necessary

fresh environmental and forest

clearances (on account of specific

provisions of Forest (Conservation)

Act, Environmental Impact

Assessment Notification etc., whose

provisions do not explicitly recognize

deemed extension of mining lease and

Page 25: FIRST REPORT ON ILLEGAL MINING OF IRON AND MANGANESE …

23

where separate specific approvals may

be necessary).”

Therefore, totally, 26 lessees of iron and

manganese ores are/were noted doing

production without lawful authority, as

reported in Annexures: V and IX (which

includes 40 leases running under deemed

extension also) in violation of EIA Notifications,

1994 and 2006.

Hence, an approximate quantity of

11,92,70,333.413 MT iron ore for an

approximate value of Rs.144,03,38,95,307/–

(i.e. approx. 14,403 crores) and an

approximate quantity of 1,30,448.686 MT of

manganese ore for an approximate value of

Rs.138,08,96,398/– (i.e. approx. Rs.138

crores) is extracted illegally and without lawful

authority. The said amount should be

recovered from the lessees under Section 21(5)

of the MM(DR) Act, 1957.

It is stated here that the illegal

production estimated herein is exclusively

based on violations of Environmental

Clearance under EIA Notifications. Further,

other factors such as consent to operate,

Page 26: FIRST REPORT ON ILLEGAL MINING OF IRON AND MANGANESE …

24

production without mining plan/scheme, FC

Clearance etc. are not taken into

consideration. Value of illegal production

would increase, if the said factors are taken

into consideration.

(g) 04 leases of iron and/or manganese ores are

such where diversion permission u/s. 2 of

Forest Conservation Act, 1980 was granted

subject to E.C. but without EC, the lessee of

the respective mine has been allowed to

operate the mining in violation of the

conditions stated therein. The list of the said

04 leases is enclosed as Annexure: XI.

(h) There are 02 leases of iron and/or manganese

ores wherein E.C. was granted without having

obtained Forest Clearance which is in violation

of Circular No.J–11015/12/94–IA. II(M), dated

17.06.1996 issued by MoEF, GoI. The list of

the said 02 leases is enclosed as Annexure:

XII.

(i) During approval for EC by MoEF, certain

conditions for protection of wildlife and

conservation of habitat, etc. were stipulated in

24 leases of iron and/or manganese ores.

To what extent, such conditions have

been complied with require verification by a

Page 27: FIRST REPORT ON ILLEGAL MINING OF IRON AND MANGANESE …

25

team of experts and follow up actions should

be taken by MoEF. The list of 24 leases,

wherein such conditions are imposed, is

enclosed as Annexure: XIII.

(j) 01 lease of iron Ore is such where

Environmental Clearance has been accorded

without stipulating any condition for wildlife

protection. The list of the said 01 lease is

enclosed as Annexure: XIV.

(k) 26 leases of iron and/or manganese ores

were/are running in violation of EP Act, 1986

and Rules framed thereunder because such

leases have not obtained EC and made excess

production (production beyond the limit fixed

by MoEF) in violation of Notifications dated

27.01.1994 & 14.02.2006 and Circular dated

12.02.2002 issued by MoEF. Therefore, action

is required to be taken under Section 21(5) of

MM(DR) Act, 1957 and also under Section 19

of E.P. Act, 1986 in all such cases which is

given in this Chapter, as Annexures: V and

IX. The list of the said 26 leases is enclosed as

Annexure: XV.

(l) Further, difference of year–wise total

production of Iron Ore as per DMG and IBM

data for the years 1993–94 to 2011–12 is

Page 28: FIRST REPORT ON ILLEGAL MINING OF IRON AND MANGANESE …

26

enclosed as Annexure: XVI. Out of 20 years

from 1993–94 to 2011–12, in two years i.e.

1997–98 and 2005–06, the production of Iron

Ore as per DMG data was more than that of

IBM data. As per IBM data and DMG data from

the years 1993–94 to 2011–12, the total

production of iron ore was 326.21 Million

Metric Tonnes and 295.59 Million Metric

Tonnes respectively. Hence, there is the

difference of 53.41 Million Metric Tonnes for

the said period (Annexure: XVI). It appears

that the production of iron reported by IBM is

about 24 percent more as compared to DMG

production during this period. So, it seems

that lessees are showing less production to

DMG. Hence, royalty is required to be

recovered by the State Government (DMG).

Therefore, it is presumed that royalty for this

under reporting production was not paid by

the lessee. This ore might have been sold to

the nearby illegally operated crusher holders

and ultimately exported or consumed locally.

The mineral value of such difference of

quantity of ore comes about to

Rs.86,85,22,03,984=00.

Further, difference of lease–wise total

production of iron ore as per DMG and IBM

data for the years 1993–94 to 2012–13 is

enclosed as Annexure: XVII. It indicates that

leases at Sr. Nos.1, 3, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 13,

15, 21, 22, 24, 26 and 27 are not included in

total production difference of Iron Ore, as

production figures as per DMG was more than

that of IBM.

6. Apart from the aforesaid facts, the District

Collectors or Deputy Commissioner or equivalent

who were the signatories of mining lease deed

agreements and also a competent authority under

Section 19 of the E.P. Act, 1986 in Jharkhand

State, are directly responsible for allowing the

mining leases operations after expiry of lease period

wherein lessees were not having statutory approvals

under all the connected Acts, Rules, guidelines,

orders and others mainly under EIA notification

dated 27.01.1994 and FCA.

The Deputy Directors or equivalent of Mines

Department who were issuing authority of mineral

dispatch permits and guardians on behalf of State

for management, administration, regulation, control

and others for mines under the relevant Acts, Rules,

guidelines, orders and others are also equally

responsible for allowing mining operations by

issuing dispatch mineral permits, even if the lessees

are not having approvals and entitlement under the

Page 30: FIRST REPORT ON ILLEGAL MINING OF IRON AND MANGANESE …

28

EIA Notification dated 27.01.1994 and

amendments, EP Act, 1986 and Rules, FC Act, 1980

and others.

7. There is flagrant misuse of Rule 24A(6) of MCR,

1960 (as amended on 27.09.1994) during the

deemed extension of lease period without obtaining

the Environmental Clearance under EIA Notification

dated 27.01.1994 and Amendments therein and

prior approvals under FC Act, 1980 for diversion of

forest land for non forestry purpose which have

resulted into serious illegal mining by extracting

millions of tonnes of iron and manganese ores. The

lessee can’t do mining, if obligatory approvals under

relevant Acts, Rules and Notifications are not

obtained by him, though whatever reasons it could

have been there.

The Commission has observed that during the

period (mainly after 2000 to 2009) the rate of royalty

per MT iron ore was very meager, hence, the lessees

had gained windfall profits. During the deemed

extension when unlawful mining was carried out,

the loss to the State is required to be compensated

by recovery of value equivalent to market rate or

export rate whichever is applicable in individual

cases with exemplary penalty after following due

course of law.

Summary Observations

A. In short, the Commission has observed that:–

(i) There is violation of EC conditions. EC

conditions are required to be strictly complied

for the benefit of the society. Its non

implementation is health hazardous which

may on occasion violate right to life,

guaranteed under Article 21 of the

Constitution of India. Further, it affects the

natural ecosystem as well as it pollutes water

and air.

(ii) Without EC, 18 mines are operating and,

therefore, “Precautionary Principle”, for

environmental damage, eco–system and river

water, is not implemented.

(iii) Nine Rivers and its tributaries are being

polluted and the water is allocated to the

different industries without making any proper

arrangement for supplying drinking water to

the villagers.

(iv) Actions, which are required to be taken under

the Water Pollution Act and Air Pollution Act,

Page 32: FIRST REPORT ON ILLEGAL MINING OF IRON AND MANGANESE …

30

are not taken by the competent authority. The

relevant Acts provide for prosecution and/or

closure of mines. Action should be initiated

without loss of time.

(v) Action should be taken for all points discussed

in this chapter. (They are not repeated here).

B. From the decisions and directions issued by the

Apex Court and the Notifications issued by the

MoEF, in short, it can be stated that:–

1. It has been repeatedly held that the right to life

is a fundamental right under Article 21 of the

Constitution of India and it includes the right

to enjoyment of pollution–free water and air for

full enjoyment of life. The protection of this

right is directly linked with clean

environment.

Secondly, it is the duty of the State and

citizens to improve the natural environment,

including forests, lakes, rivers and wildlife,

and to have compassion for living creatures.

This would require that habitats of wildlife

should not be disturbed; river/lake–water and

air should not be polluted. (Articles 48A and

51A(g) of the Constitution)

Page 33: FIRST REPORT ON ILLEGAL MINING OF IRON AND MANGANESE …

31

2. Before carrying out any mining operation,

Comprehensive Environmental Management

Plans must be formulated to the satisfaction

of, and got approved from, the Ministry of

Environment & Forests in a time bound

manner.

3. Development strategy should be such that it

caters the needs of the present without

negotiating the ability of upcoming

generations to satisfy their needs. The strict

observance of sustainable development will put

us on a path that ensures development while

protecting the environment, a path that works

for all peoples and for all generations.

Development strategy should not be only

for the growth of GNP, that too by finishing the

natural resources like minerals, forest and

others in short period.

4. The natural resources like air, water and soil

minerals, forest and others should be utilized

judiciously with utmost care, if the utilization

results in irreversible damage to environment.

There has been accelerated degradation of

environment primarily on account of lack

of effective enforcement of environmental

Page 34: FIRST REPORT ON ILLEGAL MINING OF IRON AND MANGANESE …

32

laws and non–compliance of the statutory

norms.

Mankind is a part of nature and life

depends on the uninterrupted functioning of

natural systems which ensure the supply of

energy and nutrients (The World Charter for

Nature).

5. The regulatory authorities have to act with

utmost care in ensuring compliance of

safeguards, norms and standards to be

observed by such entrepreneurs. When

questioned, the regulatory authorities have to

show that the said authorities acted in a

manner enjoined upon by them. Wherever the

regulatory authorities, either connive or act

negligently by not taking prompt action to

prevent, avoid or control the damage to

environment, natural resources and peoples’

life, health and property, the principles of

accountability for restoration and

compensation have to be applied.

6. If illegal activity is allowed to go ahead, there

may be irreparable damage to the environment

and if it is stopped, there may be irreparable

damage to economic interest. In case of doubt,

Page 35: FIRST REPORT ON ILLEGAL MINING OF IRON AND MANGANESE …

33

however, protection of environment would have

precedence over the economic interest.

Precautionary principle requires anticipatory

action to be taken to prevent harm. The harm

can be prevented even on a reasonable

suspicion. It is not always necessary that there

should be direct evidence of harm to the

environment.

7. A mining lease holder is also required to

comply with other statutory provisions such as

Environment (Protection) Act, 1986, Air

(Prevention and control of Pollution) Act, 1981,

Water (Prevention and Control of Pollution)

Act, 1974, Forest (Conservation) Act, 1980.

Mere approval of the mining plan by

Government of India, Ministry of Mines (IBM)

would not absolve the lease holder from

complying with the other provisions.

8. The aforesaid measures are not required to

remain only on paper but should be strictly

complied with in practice at field for the

protection of environment and control of

pollution as a result and consequence of

mining operations.

Page 36: FIRST REPORT ON ILLEGAL MINING OF IRON AND MANGANESE …

34

9. The mining activity can be permitted only on

the basis of sustainable development and on

compliance of stringent conditions.

10. Violation of any of the conditions and

provisions of law would entail the risk of

cancellation of mining lease. The mining

activity shall continue only on strict

compliance of the stipulated conditions.

11. Sustainable development could be achieved

only by strict compliance of the directions

under the Act. The object and purpose of the

E.P. Act – “to provide for the protection and

improvement of environment” could only be

achieved by ensuring the strict compliance of

its directions and provisions therein.

12. The decision–making process of MoEF shall be

fair, fully informed and based on the correct

principles, and free from any bias or restraint.

Notification dated 27.01.1994

specifically provides that if EC is granted

on the basis of false data, false information,

false recommendation or decision, EC is

required to be cancelled.

Page 37: FIRST REPORT ON ILLEGAL MINING OF IRON AND MANGANESE …

35

The Supreme Court, in M. C. Mehta v.

Union of India & Ors. [(2004) 12 SCC 118],

has held that in such cases, EC is to be

cancelled. Action should be taken for all such

leases pointed out by the Commission.

13. The fullest disclosures including the potential

for increased burdens on the environment

consequent upon possible increase in the

quantum and degree of pollution, has to be

made at the outset so that public and all those

concerned including authorities may decide

whether the permission can at all be granted

for carrying on mining activity or otherwise.

14. In cases where environmental clearance is

required for a project on forest land, the forest

clearance shall be obtained before the grant of

the environment clearance.

15. The Apex Court has issued the guidelines so

that fait accompli situations do not recur.

16. Without strict compliance, right to life under

Article 21 could not be guaranteed and the

purpose of the Act will also be defeated. The

commitment to the conditions thereof is an

obligation both under Article 21 and under the

Act.

Page 38: FIRST REPORT ON ILLEGAL MINING OF IRON AND MANGANESE …

36

17. The Apex Court has made it clear that by

issuance of such circulars, MoEF had not

intended to legalise the commencement or

continuance of mining activity without

compliance of stipulations of the notification.

In any case, a statutory notification cannot be

set at naught by issue of circular. It will also

not absolve the lessee from the violations

committed in past under the then existing law.

18. The definition of ‘sustainable development’

which Brundtland gave more than 3 decades

back still holds good. The phrase covers the

development that meets the needs of the

present without compromising the ability of

the future generation to meet their own needs.

19. The grant of permission for mining and

approving mining plan and the scheme by the

Ministry of Mines, Government of India (IBM)

by itself does not mean that mining operation

can commence.

20. The primary duty was to the community and

that duty took precedence. In such cases, the

obligation to the society must predominate

over the obligation to the individuals.

Page 39: FIRST REPORT ON ILLEGAL MINING OF IRON AND MANGANESE …

37

21. It is also clarified that:–

(i) The Court could review the decision–

making process to ensure that the

decision of MoEF is fair and fully

informed, based on the correct principles,

and free from any bias or restraint.

(ii) The Court has declared that the National

Forest Policy, 1988 which lays down far–

reaching principles must necessarily

govern the grant of permissions under

Section 2 of the Forest (Conservation)

Act, 1980 as the same provides the road

map to ecological protection and

improvement under the Environment

(Protection) Act, 1986. The principles/

guidelines mentioned in the National

Forest Policy, 1988 should be read as

part of the provisions of the Environment

(Protection) Act, 1986 read together with

the Forest (Conservation) Act, 1980.

(iii) Development strategy should be such

that environment is protected.

Environment should be protected not

only for present generation but is

bequeathed to the future generation.

Therefore, policy should be in such a

way that development is not related

only to the growth of GNP but health

and life of citizens as well as non–

disturbance of ecosystem.

Page 40: FIRST REPORT ON ILLEGAL MINING OF IRON AND MANGANESE …

38

C. The aforesaid facts establish disregard, nay,

contempt for law and lawful authorities on the part

of some among the emerging breed of

entrepreneurs, taking advantage, as they do, of the

country's need for industrialisation and export

earnings. Pursuit of profit has absolutely drained

them of any feeling for fellow human beings – for

that matter, for anything else. And the law seems to

have been helpless.

D. Streamline the system:–

It appears that there is system failure in

implementing and ignoring the law. Such instances

which have led many people in this country to

believe that disregard of law pays and that the

consequences of such disregard will never be visited

upon them–particularly, if they are personalities

with means. It appears that such strong words are

also not sufficient to streamline the system failure.

For this, strict actions are required to be taken

against the persons who have failed to discharge

their duties and non compliance of law.

Hence, action should be taken against all

concerned as discussed in this Chapter by

following due process of law.
