This application was filed seeking to quash and set aside the stay orders passed by the Civil Judge (Junior Division and Judicial Magistrate First Class, Alwar which was stated to be followed by our order dated 12th December, 1996 whereby mining activities were permitted in the forest area.

The learned Amicus Curiae brings to our notice the fact that subsequently the State of Rajasthan had filed Revision Petition against the said order and the High Court allowed the said applications and set aside the orders of injunction which had been granted.

5.

Learned Amicus Curiae informs us that appeals filed by the State of Rajasthan were allowed by the District Judge, Alwar who set aside the injunction which was granted by the civil revisions filed by the mines owners against the orders of the District Judge were dismissed. We are further informed that this Court dismissed the special leave petitions against the said orders of the High Court dismissing the civil revisions.
