Governor Sends Mineral Rights Bill to President

The New Indian Express Shivamogga

|

March 29, 2025

It was passed in both Houses during the winter session in Belagavi

- EXPRESS NEWS SERVICE @ Bengaluru

THE state government, which was expecting to generate around Rs 4,700 crore by passing the Karnataka (Mineral Rights and Mineral Bearing Land) Tax Bill, 2024, might be disappointed. Governor Thaawarchand Gehlot, who had earlier sent the bill back to the government seeking clarifications, has now given his nod and sent it to the President of India.

The Bill had made provision to collect tax on exercise of mineral rights and on mineral-bearing land by the State government. The Governor, in his letter, noted that the provision in this bill will have an impact on earlier parliamentary laws/central acts such as Environmental Protection Act, Forest Conservation Act and Mines and Minerals Act.

WHEN A CLEAN-UP BECOMES A MESS

A year ago, the idea of a massive nationwide exercise to visit every single household to verify, add, or delete voters was not on anyone’s radar. After all, the Narendra Modi government did not even conduct the mandatory dec-adal census. Chief Election Commi sioner Gyanesh Kumar took charge in February 2025 and, for three months, did not utter the term ‘special intensive revision’ (SIR). Suddenly, one day in June, the CEC announced a nationwide SIR beginning with Bihar. Why so suddenly and so hastily?
