Rajasthan government has announced that all mining-related vehicles will now be required to be equipped with GPS tracking systems. Additionally, weighbridge data for mined materials will be recorded and submitted online.
In a significant move to enhance transparency and control in the mining sector, the Rajasthan government has mandated the installation of GPS devices in all vehicles involved in mining operations. This new regulation aims to track the movement of these vehicles effectively.
Furthermore, the state administration will now require weighbridge data for all mined materials to be recorded and submitted online. This initiative is expected to curb illegal mining and transportation by ensuring that the weight of extracted resources is accurately documented and monitored digitally.
The implementation of these measures is part of a broader effort by the state government to streamline mining regulations and prevent revenue leakage.
