Truth vs Hype: Goa's land mine explodes
Truth vs Hype exclusive this week from Goa, which blows the lid of illegal mining in the state. TVH has accessed details of the Shah Commission report on mining violations in Goa. The Commission, set up by the Centre to prove illegal mining across India, says that more than 50% of Goa's mines are guilty of violations, that there is corruption from 'top to bottom' and that all iron ore exports must be banned. Will this be curtains for Goa's Chief Minister Digambar Kamat, who is also the mining minister? Will the Congress have no choice but to make changes in the state's leadership? And what does it mean for one of India's oldest mining industries, which generates crores in revenues and employs hundreds of Goans?
