‘Karur district administration acted in the interest of one person’
The Hindu
Exercise of the power by the then Collector was illegal: HC
Expressing shock over the fact that a private person in Karur district had been permitted to lay pipelines to extract water from a well in a land close to Amaravathi river, the Madurai Bench of the Madras High Court observed that the entire Karur district administration had acted in the interest of one person. A Division Bench of Justices T.S. Sivagnanam and S. Ananthi quashed the order passed by the then Collector S. Malarvizhi who permitted laying of the pipelines. Directing removal of the pipelines, the court said the entire cost to be spent towards removing them should be recovered from the private person, S. Shanthi.
