The Odisha government which has decided to go for electronic sale of key minerals like iron ore, chrome ore and manganese is awaiting the directive of the Supreme Court-appointed Central Empowered Committee (CEC) to enforce e-auction on mine owners.
"Unless we get a directive from the CEC, we cannot make e-auction mandatory on all lessees. There is a possibility that a lessee may initially agree to participate in e-auction and back out later. We had discussions with the CEC and they have responded positively to our move for introducing e-auction," a top official source told Business Standard.
