The High Court of Uttarakhand quashed the State Government's revisional order dismissing the petitioners' challenge to illegal mining charges and royalty recovery orders. The court found that authorities failed to properly investigate the petitioners' claim that neighboring leaseholder Digvijay Singh conducted mining on their adjoining plot, merely noting but not addressing their contentions. The matter was remitted for fresh revision after conducting proper inquiry. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
