What would be the fate of mining in the State? The review petition filed by Goa government in Supreme Courts awaits for the hearing while government is looking for the option of forming a corporation.



After Mauvin, and the chief minister now Ports Minister Michael Lobo has also come out to bat for a Mining Corporation if no solution comes from the review petition.


But he is concerned about the present lease holders.


There were repeated promises from ruling MLAs and Ministers that mining in Goa would be resumed by December.


Now, Supreme Court hearing has been postponed to January.


Michael says that if no positive response comes from the court they will go ahead with forming a corporation.


He said that all MLAs from ruling and opposition are favoring this decision.
