Chandigarh: The mine allotment in Bukit Dadam Tosham in Bhiwani District Haryana is always regarded as a ‘gold mine’ for mining companies.
Rent’s rationing or contract by the state government for Hill Dadam has been controversial on charges of favoritism which is a process.
Even in the order of August 11, 2017, the Supreme Court has attracted the government of Haryana, observing that “influence in high places used” when the government gave a rental mining worth RS 115 Crore from Bukit Dadam in Tosham to the company and did not even qualify for contracts mining.
The division bench consisting of Madan B Local Justice and Justice Deepak Gupta has passed this order while hearing the request submitted by M / S Sunder Marketing Associates.
The problem before the APEX court is whether the applicant must be allowed to submit the mining rent given to him and if so, in what conditions, if any.
“This is a classic case of someone (the applicant in this) seems to have influence in high places, using the influence to violate the law and get the benefits that are usually not given to others.
We cannot say at any level of certainty how high reach The applicant but quite clear from the facts of the case, that the reach is quite high, “the court bench was top.
The case of high influence: SCA joint venture from M / S Sunder Marketing Associates and Associate Karamjeet Singh & Company is the highest bidder for the chest mine in the Bhiwani district with an offer of Rs 115 Crores per year towards dead rental or royalties, any higher.
The auction was held in December 2013.
What was important, the joint venture was eligible to participate in the auction, but the applicant, marketing M / S Sunder did not fulfill the requirements to participate in a single aantle.
Then, one partner, M / S Karamjeet Singh & Company handed over the part for certain reasons.
In this case, M / S Sunder marketing asked the government to allow it to continue mining contracts.
On the basis of opinions taken from Haryana Advocate General, it was proposed by the mining engineer concerned on June 10, 2015, to allow the transfer of all parts of the joint venture for certain conditions.
This was approved by the Superior Authority, including the chairman of the Minister Haryana.
Importantly, it was done by the Haryana government despite the fact that M / S Sunder Marketing individually did not even be eligible to get the mining rent as a single bidder.
Watching it as a case of using “high influence” by marketing M / S Sunder in getting a chest mining rental even though it does not qualify, the Supreme Court has argued that in a state of no letter of intention or mining rent has been transferred from a joint venture that supports the applicant.
“This is a truly illegal transfer carried out within five years from mining rental executions that have encouraged us to believe that applicants can influence in high places,” SC has held.
However, the APEX court has allowed M / S Sunder’s marketing to continue mining until November 30, 2017.
There are accusations that during the extended period, M / S Sunder marketing has been excavated in the chest hills area outside the norms that are permitted.
