STC mining lease quashed
BANGALORE: The Karnataka High Court on Tuesday quashed a notification granting a 30-year lease to the State Trading Corporation (STC) to mine iron ore at Kumaraswamy reserve forest in Sandur taluk of Bellary district. Allowing petitions by H.G. Rangagowda and Salgoankar Mining of Goa, Justice D.V. Shylendra Kumar said the notification deserved to be quashed as it was a colourable exercise of power.
The petitioners contended that they had applied for mining lease at Sandur. The authorities had turned down their applications and decided to grant lease to STC for mining 524.80 hectares of land in Kumaraswamy forests. Justice Shylendra Kumar said he was quashing the notification. — Staff Reporter
