Illegal Mining in Karnataka

Shame on the local and central government for making this scandal happened.I was heart felt  to the see the resources of our land being misused and illegally used by the rich and power.The scale of corruption in this illegal  mining is again mind boggling.As im typing this, in TIMES-NOW channel the flash news is "Corruption in Common Wealth Games lights procurement -Sheila Dixit involved?".

Is India becoming the land of corruption? Everywhere corruption.

Check out the scale of illegal mining:
      Year Permitted Exported
2003-2004       25,27,001         45,76,964
2004-2005   64,51,665  1,16,91,183
2005-2006   92,99,600  1,14,71,092
