New Delhi, Sep 17 (CNBC): It is a huge relief for Goa miners and Sesa Goa in particular as the Supreme Court (SC) will regularly hear the matter of Goa mining ban case, reports CNBC-TV18’s Anshu Sharma.
Sesa Goa Last year, the state of Goa and Supreme Court had imposed mining ban in the state after MB Shah Commission report was submitted citing illegal mining practices in the state. This ban caused about USD 8 billion loss of revenue to both the central and the state government.
At present about 4-6 million tonne iron ore is lying idle in the state, which is dependent on exports of these iron ore.
