SHRI B.K. HANDIQUE: Sir, the power for controlling and containing illegal mining does not rest with the Central Government. The power rests with the State Governments. The State Governments have been given that power and it is they who can tackle the situation because this is a law and order problem and only they are competent enough to take action on it. But, legal provisions in the MMDR Act have been strengthened in 1999 to check the problem of illegal mining more effectively. For the benefit of the hon. Member, may I quote some of the rules? There are provisions included for transported and storage and confiscation as against mere seizure. Section 4(1A) was introduced and Section 21(4) of the Act was amended to bring transport and storage of illegally raised mineral within the purview of law. Section 21(4A) has been introduced for confiscation of mineral, tool, equipment, vehicle or any other thing seized for illegal mining. There is a law for this. I do not want to waste the time of the House. We have passed the law and have further strengthened the law. But laws have to be implemented in the State where mines are located. That is the look-out of the State Government. 21.07.2009 11 But we are in constant touch with the State Government and they are taking action. I think the hon. Member has not given any specific case. If he gives any specific case, I will definitely look into it. gÉÉÒ àÉxɺÉÖJÉ£ÉÉ<Ç bÉÒ. ´ÉºÉÉ´ÉÉ : àÉcÉänªÉ, àÉé àÉÉxÉxÉÉÒªÉ àÉÆjÉÉÒ VÉÉÒ ºÉä ªÉc BÉEcxÉÉ SÉÉciÉÉ cÚÆ ÉÊBÉE càÉ ]ÉÒ.´ÉÉÒ.
