Supreme Court allows iron ore mining in Goa

The Supreme Court allowed mining to resume in Goa, subject to an annual cap of 20 million tonne from leases other than dumps, lifting a ban that it imposed in 2012 but disallowing all so-called deemed lease holders from continuing with the activity. An expert committee would suggest ways of dealing with mining dumps and submit a report within a year on the final cap.
