There is no illegal mining in the Aravalli Hills in Haryana, according to the Union Ministry of Mines. In a written reply in the Rajya Sabha recently, the Minister of State for Mines, Mr Dinsha Patel, said that though there were no organised illegal mining activities in Haryana, stray incidents of mineral thefts had come to the notice of the State Government, which “are dealt with as per law”.
The Minister said that in compliance with the Supreme Court ban on mining activities in the area, the State Government had constituted a district-level task force to keep a watch on such activities.
