Nurpur, November 22
The Indora police, on a complaint by environmentalist Prem Kumar, confiscated a porcelain machine engaged in illegal mining on the Beas riverbed today.
The porcelain driver reportedly fled with a tipper, leaving behind the machine. The porcelain belongs to a stone crusher owner, who was fined Rs 2 lakh by the local mining authorities last year.
According to Nurpur DSP Surinder Sharma, a case has been registered against porcelain driver Balwinder Singh, a resident of Ghiala village in Pathankot, under Section 379 of the IPC for stealing minerals from the river and the Mines and Minerals Act.
Excavation machines are reportedly brought to the Beas at night for illegal mining but the authorities concerned have not been able to check the menace. Resentment is brewing among local farmers and environmentalists against rampant illegal mining in rivulets in Nurpur and Indora subdivisions. The underground water resources in the area also depleting.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising four eminent persons as trustees.
The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the paper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.
The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
