Illegal quarrying: Thiruvanchoor gets Sudheeran’s letter

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: KPCC president V M Sudheeran has written to Thiruvanchoor Radhakrishan, who is also in charge of Environment ministry, urging him to prohibit illegal quarrying across the State including the Western Ghats and to inquire into the sanctions given for sand quarrying.

Sudheeran’s letter comes in the backdrop of allegations that many sanctions were being given arbitrarily. During the time when the Environment committee had no president, many companies got sanctions. Sudheeran’s letter points fingers at these sanctions, asking the ministry to appoint special team to investigate the legality of sanctions
