Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court reviewed its earlier judgment regarding the approval of mineral concession under Section 5(1) of the Mines and Minerals (Regulation and Development) Act, 1957. The Court held that the review petitions did not merit admission as the issues raised were already addressed in the previous ruling, which dismissed the civil appeals and the transferred case. The Court reaffirmed the necessity for the State Government to clarify compliance with Rule 59 of the Mineral Concession Rules, 1960, and the invocation of Section 11(5) of the Act for prioritizing applicants.
