Team visits sites in Thrissur, plants teak saplings
A United Democratic Front (UDF) team led by T.N. Prathapan, MP, on Friday visited Alumkunnu, Pulakkode, Pothumthadam and Thokkavadi Kulambu colony in Thrissur district, where large-scale tree felling was reported. Demanding a judicial investigation into the incident, Mr. Prathapan alleged that trees worth ₹25 crore had been cut from the revenue land following the government order. “Revenue Minister K. Rajan has not visited these places yet. He is still justifying the government order, which led to the illegal tree felling. This shows his link to the case,” Mr. Prathapan alleged.More Related News
