The correct answer is Andhra Pradesh.
To minimize the impact of mining the State Government of Jharkhand proposed to bring Legislative measures in line with the model of Andhra Pradesh.
The chief mineral resources of the state include iron ore, coal, mica, limestone, manganese, mica, copper ore among others (40% of the country's mineral reserves are from Jharkhand).
Mining is an important economic activity in Jharkhand and mining activities have high ecological and social impact.
The large scale mining and allied activities going on in the Jharkhand region has caused severe damage to the land resources of the area.
Vast areas of rich forests and agricultural land belonging to the indigenous people have been laid waste because of haphazard mining.
To minimize the impacts of mining, the State Government also proposes to bring some legislation in mining in line with the Andhra Pradesh model so that resources generated from mining sectors can be used to replenish the development funds available with the local bodies.
It also has plans to create a separate directorate of the environment.
