ORDER IA No. 263 of 1998 1. An affidavit has been filed by Shri Pushp Raj Singh, s/o Shri Pradhuman Singh, who had assisted the Commission which visited the village to find out the state of affairs about the illegal mining activities in the forest area. From a perusal of his affidavit, it transpires that Shri Pragya Ram Mishra, Chief Development Officer had been deputed by the District Magistrate to prepare a report which was to be submitted to this Court, but that report has not been forwarded and in the report submitted by the District Magistrate also there is no reference to the report of Shri Pragya Ram Mishra either. If what is stated in the affidavit is correct to any extent, it does portray a rather distressing situation. We direct learned counsel for the State of V.P. to produce the report in original received from Mr Pragya Ram Mishra, Chief Development Officer in this Court on the next date in a sealed cover. 2. In the affidavit of Shri Pushp Raj Singh, it has also been averred that illegally mixed materials, other than the ones which have been seized under directions of this Court, are still lying at various places in the district and the same have not been seized by the District Magistrate. This is stated in para 7 of the affidavit. The total number of slabs is stated to be roughly about 50,000. Mr Adarsh Goel, Advocate appearing for the State of V.P., submits that after receipt of the copy of the affidavit of Shri Pushp Raj Singh, the Administration had instituted an enquiry into the factual aspects contained in the affidavit and that the result of that enquiry is being compiled and shall be filed in this Court before the next date. 3. Let the report together with the report of Shri Pragya Ram Mishra in original be produced within 10 days. 4. A copy of the affidavit of Shri Pushp Raj Singh has also been furnished to the learned counsel for the State of Madhya Pradesh, who may respond to the allegations which concern the State of Madhya Pradesh, particularly those contained in para 8 of the affidavit. The needful shall be done within 10 days. IA No. 298 of 1998 in IA No. 263 of 1998 5. The needful shall be done within 10 days. IA No. 298 of 1998 in IA No. 263 of 1998 5.
