Mumbai, Mar 19 : Lafarge Umiam Mining (LUMPL), a subsidiary of Lafarge Surma Cement (LSC), has reiterated its commitment to environment and legal compliances for its operations in Meghalaya.
The company said in a statement that the self-styled organization called Shella Action Committee (SAC) held a press conference earlier today and made several unsubstantiated allegations against LUMPL.
"There is nothing new in the allegations made by the SAC, which is an unconnected breakaway group of Shella Village Durbar – that neither represents the Shella nor Nongtrai Durbar where the LUMPL operations are located. They have been advocating against the continuation of the project on various fictitious grounds for a long time," the release said.
LUMPL further said that it embarked upon mining operations in Nongtrai and Shella, East Khasi Hills Meghalaya only after receiving clearance from the competent authorities and it has always abided by the determinations as made by the authorities.
