Photo collection recounting the Mahan Coal Block scandal, involving corporate fraud and resulting in proposed mining in the Mahan Forest. Mahan Coal Block allocated to Hindalco Ltd and Essar Power Ltd in Singrauli district in Madhya Pradesh had been granted Stage II clearance by Veerappa Moily, the Minister of Environment and Forest on February 12, 2014. The "Gram Sabha" (a local self-government institution at the village or small town level in India) resolution, based on which the stage II clearance has been given, is fraudulent, say the villagers who claim their signatures have been forged on the Gram Sabha resolution.
