Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the termination of the mining lease granted to M/s Haryana Mining Company by the Director General, Mines and Geology, Haryana. The court found that the termination was justified due to complaints of illegal mining activities exceeding the permitted area. The appeal against the High Court's dismissal of the writ petition was therefore dismissed, affirming the authority's decision to terminate the lease.
