Reliance Power's Sasan ultra mega power project received undue favour from the environment ministry that gave forest clearance to the project in violation of the act, according to CAG Report. The ministry exempted Sasan Power Ltd from adhering to compensatory afforestation rule, one of the most important conditions stipulated by the central government under the forest conservation act while diverting forest land for non-forest uses. Sasan Power Ltd had to provide equivalent area of 1,384.96 hectare of non-forest land for compensatory afforestation of its power plant and the attached coal mining project. The non-forest land for compensatory afforestation had to be identified contiguous to or in the proximity of the Sidhi district. In case non-forest land for compensatory afforestation was not available in the district non-forest land could have been identified anywhere else in Madhya Pradesh.

However in both these cases, MoEF exempted SPL from providing equivalent area of non-forest land for the compensatory afforestation, on basis of the certificate from the chief secretary that no forest land was available in Sidhi district. MoEF did not ask SPL to furnish such certificate for entire Madhya Pradesh or make efforts for identification of non-forest land for compensatory afforestation anywhere else in the State. Instead, SPL was allowed compensatory afforestation over double degraded forest land even though it was not eligible for such an exemption. The deputy conservator of forests, MoEF Regional Office (Central), Bhopal during his site visit for coal mining project in November 2008 mentioned that compensatory afforestation on double degraded forest land was not admissible on the basis of the certificate. However, MoEF ignored his opinion and based on an ineligible certificate issued by the Chief Secretary exempted SPL from providing non-forest land in violation of the Forest (Conservation) Act 1980.
