Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court set aside the High Court's order cancelling the mining license granted to the petitioner, directing the High Court to reconsider the matter in light of a report from the Central Empowered Committee (C.E.C.) regarding the potential environmental impact of mining activities. The Court emphasized the need for the High Court to afford the petitioner an opportunity to present their case and assess the implications on local water streams and the village pond. The petitioner is prohibited from conducting any mining activities until the High Court reaches a new decision within six months.
