Unauthorized murrum mining is a significant issue within the municipal limits. Mining activities take place between 11 PM and 8 AM, with no permits in place. This unchecked mining has resulted in large pits and ponds replacing the original terrain, causing environmental degradation and damage to farmers’ land. Local reports suggest that political connections and a lack of action from the mining department are enabling this illegal activity. The authorities’ silence has led to the mafia’s increasing confidence.
