3The company was engaged in extracting major
minerals in Tuticorin, Tirunelveli and
Kanyakumari districts' coastal regions.
VV Mineral Managing Director S Vaikundarajan and
others had filed a batch of writ petitions after
the Centre issued orders rejecting their schemes
of mining.

4In July last year, a single judge had quashed the
orders though the Centre did not file its counter
affidavits. The court heard neither the arguments
of the Regional Controller of Mines nor received
counter-affidavits before passing the orders,
said Indian Bureau of Mines (IMB) in their
appeals.

5Additional Solicitor General of India G
Rajagopalan represented the Centre before the
first bench comprising Chief Justice Sanjay
Kishan Kaul and Justice T S Sivagnanam last week
and sought condonation of delay of more than 210
days in filing appeals.
Counters were received after pronouncement of
judgments these were not considered and taken
into account before passing the orders, senior
Central Government Standing Counsel Rabu Manohar
submitted.

6The orders suspending their mining operations
were issued only because they failed to submit
their mining scheme at least 120 days before
expiry of their approved mining scheme, he
contended.
They were first issued show-cause notices giving
30 days for submitting reply, and then suspended
after no reply was forthcoming, he said. "Without
giving reply to show-cause notice, VV Mineral
hurriedly came to court without exhausting the
appeal remedy," he said.

7The single judge failed to note that the company
had already approached civil courts in
Tirunelveli and filed a number of civil suits for
the very same relief. All suits are pending.
"Having approached civil courts, the company
ought to have waited till the disposal of civil
suits," he said.
