ORDER
Illegal mining in Aravallis
1. Mr Harish N. Salve, the learned Senior Counsel points out that there appears to be some typographical error in the record of proceedings dated 29-10-2002/30-10-2002 in para 47 of SCC while dealing with the illegal mining in the Aravalli Hills. The sentence where error seems to have erupted is "This ban is not limited only to the hills encircling Kote and Alampur Villages but extends to the entire hill range of Aravalli from Dholpur to Rajasthan." It appears that the word "Dholpur" should have been "Haryana". Now the word "Dholpur" would be read as "Haryana".
