Mines Act 1952 referred to GoM amid divergent views

10 May 2013 Evaluate

The proposed Mines Act 1952 (amendments) has been referred to the Group of Ministers (GoM) for consideration following members of the Cabinet expressed different views on making the Chief Executive or the Chairman responsible for mishaps as proposed in the Labour Ministry's bill.

As per the Mining Act 1952, in case of an accident, a clause in the Mining Act provides for heavy fines and long term imprisonment of managers of the mines for violation of safety norms. Therefore, the members are of the view that the issue should be left to the board to decide on whom to nominate for liability in case of an accident.  

The Bill also proposes to amend and consolidate the law relating to regulation of condition of work and welfare of persons employed in mines and for the matter connected therewith. The Act was last amended in 1983 and subsequent to the amendments, several developments in the area of technology, scale of operations, working environment and work practices in coal, non-coal and oil sector have taken place and thus forced the government to further amend it.
