ಮೇನ್ಸ್
GS3 (Mining, Environment): Coal remains central to India's energy security, but mining causes land degradation, pollution and displacement. Star ratings use environmental, safety and community parameters to nudge public and private operators towards sustainable practice. The way forward is transparent, verifiable criteria, linking ratings to incentives and penalties, and strengthening mine closure, reclamation and just-transition measures.
