Birla Corporation, a MP Birla Group flagship, has been granted a partial relief by Jodhpur High Court whereby it allowed the company to remove 70,000 MT of already excavated limestone from the mining area. Further, the court directed Indian Bureau of Mines to conduct inspection and various tests with regard to the mining activities and its effect on the Chittorgarh Fort and submit a report within one month.
Earlier, the company had to suspend the mining activity at its Chanderia Plant on account of an order announced on August 27, 2011 by the Jodhpur High Court.
Birla Corporation operates four division cement, jute, vinoleum and auto trim. It has eight manufacturing facilities located in Pune, Rajasthan, West Bengal, Gurgoan, Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh.
