The Union ministry of coal wants mine-bearing states to choose the legal framework they will follow for land acquisition by private coal miners as part of the ongoing commercial coal auction.
This comes after some states protested that the Centre was encroaching on their right to approve land acquisition for private miners.
The coal ministry has proposed that states can choose between the Coal Bearing Areas (Acquisition & Development) Act, 1957, and the Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement (LARR) Act, 2013. The compensation amount is the same under both.
