Shahdol, in identifying the characteristics of organized crime, it has become clear that organized crime has the characteristics of self-perpetuation and continuous conspiracy, use of profit and acquired power to achieve personal goals, use of fear and corruption and virtual immunity from law. This is happening in the district where a government employed officer has sold his government chair for the sake of a few silver coins, this is because illegal exploitation of government mineral wealth worth crores of rupees from your city is done by an external legitimate sand contract company doing illegal mining. Who is responsible and why... Big question. Read full news.

Regarding sand supply in the district, TP (Transit Pass) has been issued for only a few mines in which the lease holder of sand mining has been given to Baba Mahakal Minerals Private Limited (Chain Singh Shekhawat). Let us tell you that since the initial days in the district The disputed allotted sand mine is Karkati which falls in the District Panchayat Pali area. Sand mining is going on at the TP of Karkati sand mine, which is about 74 kilometers away from the present Mohbala sand mine. And let us tell you that on the reporting from ground zero of the City Chief Reporter, it is known that the sand allotted in village Karkati. There is neither any board, flag etc. installed in the mine, how will they be installed? No matter how far our eyes and the camera went, the Karkati sand mine appeared to be fake. Farhat Jahan, the mining officer of Umaria district, was posted earlier in Shahdol and Before that, it was in Anuppur, after being at the divisional headquarters for more than a decade, although some sand contract company is mining fake sand from other rivers of the district on the real TP Transit Pass, then somewhere the immense wealth of the district is being used. According to the information received from the sources, Umaria Collector Budhesh Kumar Vaidya will have to first find out the reason behind the theft of mineral revenue of Madhya Pradesh government and the impunity being given for months instead of curbing this theft. The matter is serious, the stigma of personal financial gain is already being imposed on the Mineral Department, but amidst all this, there is news of its spillage reaching the Collector.
 
Let us tell you that the legitimate contractor is cutting the ETP of the sand mine allotted here and fulfilling only the paper quorum and is carrying out illegal sand excavation in broad daylight at gunpoint from the sand mine Salaiya, Mohbala, which falls under Manpur Janpad Panchayat area. No, look at the audacity of the sand contract company, now even the instructions of the NGT are being openly violated by the company. Whereas NGT has clear instructions that excavation cannot be done with machines in rivers. Also, excavation cannot be done in more area than the approved area, but with the connivance of the sand contractor and the Mineral Department, illegal excavation of sand is going on openly in the name of legitimate TP.
