Observing that a balance between sustainable development and protection of the environment has to be made, the Supreme Court asked the Centre and state governments on Thursday to stop illegal mining in the Aravalli area.
A bench of Justices B R Gavai and Abhay S Oka said the governments must ensure that action is taken against erring officials.
“Illegal mining in the Aravallis has to stop. The authorities have to ensure that the requisite steps are taken in this regard.
