Forest clearance cancelled for Chhattisgarh coal blocks

The National Green Tribunal has cancelled the clearance given by the Environment Minister to Parsa East and Kante-Basan captive coal blocks in Hasdeo Arand forests of Chhattisgarh, overruling the statutory Forest Advisory Committee. The forest clearance was given by the then Union Environment and Forests Minister Jairam Ramesh in June 2011.
