AGENDA ITEM NO. 2 Diversion of 159.064 Ha of Forest Land for Tubed Coal Block in Favour of Tubed Coal Mines Limited in Latehar District in the State of Jharkhand AGENDA ITEM NO. 2 Diversion of 159.064 ha of forest land for Tubed Coal Block in favour of Tubed Coal Mines Limited in Latehar District in the State of Jharkhand. F. No. 8-24/2013-FC 1. The State Government of Jharkhand vide their letter No. 3/Van Bhumi-25/2012/908/V.P. dated 28.02.2013 has submitted a fresh proposal seeking prior approval of the Central Government under Section-2 of the Forest (Conservation) Act, 1980 for diversion of 159.064 ha of forest land for Tubed Coal Block in favour of Tubed Coal Mines Limited in Latehar District in the State of Jharkhand. 2. The Tubed Coal Block over an area of 4.60 Sq. Km is located in Latehar district of Jharkhand State. It lies in the northern part of Auranga coalfield which is the Eastern most part of North Coal Valley Gondwana basin. Tubed coal block has been allocated to M/s Hindalco Industries Ltd and M/s Tata Power company Limited by Ministry of Coal, Govt. of India, vide letter No. 38011/11/2006-CA-1 dated 01.08.2007. M/s Tubed Coal Mines Limited (TCML) a joint venture company has been formed by the above two allottees for development of the coal block. In order to exploit coal from the allotted block, M/s Tubed Coal Mines Limited (TCML) is interested to develop the mine to meet their captive requirement of 6.0 million tonnes of coal per annum. 3. Out of the total area of mining lease of 460 ha , total mining and dumping area will be 413 ha while remaining 47 ha will be utilized for services, barier and safety zone. 350 ha of the area of the mining lease will be broken up for extraction of 139.654 million tonnes of coal. Total overburden to be generated during the entire period of mining activity will be 280.51 million cu.m out of which 200 million cu. m will be backfilled in the decoaled area thereby reclaiming the mining lease. 4. The allotted coal block has total mining lease area of 460 ha comprising of 162.394 ha of forest land and 297.606 ha of non-forest land. Area of safety zone of the mining lease is 3.33 ha. It is pertinent to mention here that State Government did not include the area of safety zone in the total area applied for diversion. As per the Guidelines dated 12.07.2012 issued by the MoEF, the area earmarked for safety zone should have been included in the total area applied for diversion under the Forest (Conservation) Act, 1980. 5. Sukri river flowing in South-West part of the block controls the main drainage of the area. There are 3 East-West flowing nalas which drain into Sukri River. Besides this, there is also a nala located in the northern part of the block which joins Sukri river. 6. Regarding justification for locating the project in the forest area, it has been indicated that proposed Tubed coal mining block in Auranga coalfield is within a potential coal bearing zone. This coal block has been explored in detail and the coal reserve has been established by Govt. of India agencies. Accordingly the coal block has been allocated by Ministry of Coal, govt. of India for mining of coal for captive use to meet the requirement of the two joint venture companies in their respective power plants to be set up in the Jharkhand State. About 33.70% area of the coal block is covered under forest land. Without forest land mining activity cannot be taken up in this allotted block. The coal to be produced from this block would help in generation of power which ultimately shall promote the growth of industries and industrial production. This will help in economic development of and more income to the state besides generating additional avenues for employment. Further, mining operation in this backward area shall improve the infrastructure facilities and enhance the socio-economic condition of the local people. 7.

  • “Indigenous People and Forest Rights in Jharkhand”
    “Indigenous People and Forest Rights in Jharkhand” Jagdeep Oraon Assistant Professor & D.I.C Dept. of Anthropology& Tribal Studies Sidho Kanho Birsha University, Purulia West Bengal, India- 723101 [email protected] The 67.7 million people belonging to ‘Scheduled Tribe’ in India are generally considered to be ‘Adivasi’, literally meaning ‘Indigenous People’ or original inhabitants, though the term ‘Scheduled Tribe’ (ST) is not coterminous with the term ‘Adivasi’. Scheduled Tribe is an administrative term used for the purpose of ‘administering’ certain specific constitutional privileges, protection and benefits for specific section of peoples historically considered disadvantaged and ‘backward’. However, this administrative term does not exactly match all the peoples called ‘Adivasi’. Out of the 5653 distinct communities in India, 635 are considered to be ‘tribes’ or ‘Adivasis’. In comparison, one finds that estimated number of STs varies from 250 to 593. It must, however, be stated that the Indian Constitution does not use the term ‘Adivasi’ and instead refers to the STs as ‘Anusuchit Jana Jati’. Traditionally ‘Jana’ was the more popular term to refer to the tribes in the Hindi heartland. (Ray: 1972) One of the prime factors for claiming aboriginal or indigenous status for the tribes is to enable them to gain territorial, land rights and control over natural resources. There are, however, vicious forces in the country who are overtly active in not conceding these rights. The Hindutva forces term the tribes as ‘Vanvasi’. This term not only conveys a sense of primitiveness but also tries to deny the territorial rights. The Gandhians too were not very far from it and they considered the tribes more from a culturological position and referred to them as ‘Vanyajati’.

    District Agriculture Plan PALAMU DISTRICT 2008-09 to 2011-12 NABARD CONSULTANCY SERVICES JHARKHAND REGIONAL OFFICE RANCHI 2 MAP OF PALAMAU DISTRICT Map of the District 3 FOREWORD Jharkhand, the 28th State of the Indian Union is best known for its rich mineral resources. However, 78% of the total population of 2.69 crore live in rural areas, largely dependent only on agriculture and allied activities. The total cultivable land in the State compares well at 52% of the total geographical area with 55% in the country. But, unfortunately while 76% of the total cultivable area is under net sown area in the country, only 43% is cultivated in Jharkhand. The state suffers from several critical gaps in the agricultural and allied sectors. It is against this back drop that the Agricultural Development plan for 21 districts of the State have been prepared by NABCONS on the basis of the assignment given by the Government of Jharkhand. The proposed plan envisages a holistic revamp of the entire agriculture and allied sectors. The full implementation of the proposals is expected to significantly increase the cropping intensity, the net and gross cropped area and finally result in vastly improved nutrient availability to the rural population. The investments in allied sectors and integrated approach to farming are important to boost the household incomes and to mitigate the risks in agriculture dependent almost entirely on the vagaries of nature with only 10% of cultivated land under irrigation against the national average of 40%. It is a great privilege and simultaneously a big challenge for NABCONS, the consultancy subsidiary of NABARD, to have been assigned the task of preparing the State wise and district (in respect of 21 districts) wise comprehensive Agriculture Plan (SAP & DAP) by the Jharkhand state govt.

At the beginning of its evolutionary development, only the energy of muscles was accessible for human beings. Later on a man learned to get and to use the energy of the fire. New round of evolutionary development of the humankind brought a possibility to use the energy of water and wind. The discovery of new energy sources at the initial stage of evolutionary development of the humankind went on in the complicated ways: either by a lucky chance or due to the scientist of genius or the discovery performed over a significant period. In the XVIII century, a steam engine invented. XIX century marked by the appearance of electricity: voltaic arc was opened, electric lighting, electric motor and electric generator. XX century was a century of a true revolution in the development of ways and methods of generation and usage of energy. Powerful systems of oil and gas supply were appearing at the same time. Discovery of electricity propel the human civilization, and modernized the whole era in true sense. In present time, electricity is perquisite for economic growth and human development. It requires for almost all type of basic needs e.g cooking, lighting, mobility, communication, pumping of water, entertainment, agriculture etc.
