Sesa Goa, a division of Sesa Sterlite, is moving towards resuming iron ore mining in Karnataka. The company, which had stopped mining following a Supreme Court ban in the state two years ago (later lifted), recently secured a working permit for one year from the union ministry of environment and forests (MoEF) for its mines in Chitradurga district.
