Prohibition on the granting of SandGhats and small minerals until the Pesa Act is notified: Court

Ranchi, September 24 (IANS). The Jhark Hand High Court rejected the claim from the removal of the ban on the grant of SandGhats and small mining areas in the state. The Bank of Chief Justice Tarlok Singh Chauhan and Justice Rajesh Shankar on Wednesday clarified that the court would not allow it until the state government does not notify the Panchayat expansion to scheduled area law), 1996 Act. However, the court accepted the intervention request filed by the State Government to prohibit the order to prohibit the auction and assignment of SandGhats and remove a notice to the refaster. The next trial of the case is scheduled on October 9. The Supreme Court Bank said the government had not yet fulfilled its responsibility to notify and notify the rules of Pesa, 1996. The Chief Justice said: “You must notify the rules, then we will only allow auction.” During this, Advocate General Rajiv Ranjan told the court on behalf of the government that a concept was prepared to implement the rules, and various departments of intentions were sought. After it has received the intentions of the departments, it will be sent to the Cabinet, and then the Pesa rules will be implemented within a month. To this, the court asked what steps were taken against the departments whose officials did not give the intention within the set time limit on the draft rules? The court also said that we are concerned that when the government notice and the pesa rules implement, what the government does to create a concept is not the basic question for our thinking. It is noteworthy that the Supreme Court in Jharkhand earlier on September 9, in this case, while bringing a contempt for the tribe -inventive platform, prohibited the auction of all types of minor minerals, including Balu Ghat, to the implementation of the Pesa Act in the state. The court also expressed dissatisfaction with the answer of Manoj Kumar, general secretary, Panchayati Raj Department, who was present at the hearing. The court said the state government weakened the intention of the 73rd Constitution amendment. Local bodies should get the rights about land and natural resources in scheduled tribal areas, but the government is constantly cheating on the rules. During the hearing, senior lawyer Ajit Kumar argued on behalf of the ADVENTER that the State Government deliberately delayed the pesa rules. The Supreme Court has ordered the Jharkhand government to notify the pesa rules in the state within two months of a pill in July 2024. The court said that according to the objectives of the 73rd amendment of the Constitution and in the provision of the Pesa Act, the Pesa rules must be implemented. -Ians SNC/DSC shares this story -tags
