casestatus.in Summary

Summary The Supreme Court disposed of the appeal as infructuous due to amendments to the Tamil Nadu Minor Minerals Concession Rules, 1959. The Court noted that the State Government, based on an Expert Committee Report, reduced the prohibited distance for quarrying from 500 metres to 300 metres from inhabited sites, clarified that "inhabited site" excludes unauthorised habitations, and established new pollution control measures and blasting protocols. The Court held that subsisting licensees' rights are protected and that new rules apply only upon lease renewal. The impleadment application was dismissed, and the related writ petition was dismissed as withdrawn with liberty for further legal recourse. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
