Abstract

Ever increasing demand of coal, a source of energy has resulted into various types of environmental problems. Degradation of land and production of very large amount of mine spoil is one of the m. It is moral as well as legal obligation of every one associated with mining activity to do something concrete reclaim the degraded land. Biological reclamation is the best option and for a good result suitable plant species must be selected. The result obtained during the study clearly indicated suitability of Amaranthus caudatus for this purpose. The said species is underexploited but has several economic importances.
