Khliehriat, Jan 03:Dominic Pala, the headman of Lamyrsiang village said that it is very difficult to pump the water by using only one or two pumping machine,as the water level will never go down.
“Those days when coal mining is done I spent more than Rs.1 crore(one crore) to pump my three Mining pit, further the pumping is done together at the same time along with other Maliks that also it takes around 2-3 months to clear floor or to bring out all water”
“Also,to bring down the water level in Briwar area it is required to do the pumping with all mines cutting right from Jaintia Cement area, because they all have the underground tunnel connected together.and for doing this it will be a huge cost around 70-80 crore.It is impossible to pump the water from only one or two pit,as it will bring no results at all”said Mr Pala.
Further, people who were doing mining in that particular area NGT banned ,said that all the coal owners who worked in that area fixed a particular time to pump water and also made a fine decision with the Dorbarshnong Elaka of where to throw the water,so that the water will not carelessly flow to people’s palaces.
