Cong., BJP attack Govt. on tree felling order
The Hindu
Both parties see no truth in Govt. move to pass the buck on bureaucracy
The Congress and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) appeared poised to put the Left Democratic Front (LDF) Government in the dock on the charge of not protecting the State's interest concerning the safety of the 135-year-old Mullaperiyar dam.
Both parties saw no truth in the Government's statement that a forest official, without the consent or knowledge of the political executive, had allowed Tamil Nadu to fell trees near the baby dam to fortify the ageing barrier.

The High Court of Karnataka on Tuesday ordered the issue of a notice to the State government on a PIL petition, which had complained about disturbances caused to people residing in the localities around the National Public School situated in Rajajinagar 5th block due to use of loudspeakers with high volume in the school and parking of school buses in residential areas.
