Illegal mining continues in Karnataka

Bengaluru: Illegal mining continues in several state districts despite protests by the community after the explosion in the Shivamogga and Chikkaballapur districts that killed more than a dozen people.
The involvement of the rich, the interests of shares from local populations and political protection have provided actions taken by the state government to examine them.

Mandya MP Sumalata Ambaresesh, on a two-day tour of Mandya recently, was surprised to see illegal mines in the district despite a lot of raids and punishment after he raised the problem in parliament.

The government did not accept royalties.
