Tamil Nadu Vivasayeegal Sangam, affiliated to the All India Kisan Sabha, has urged the Coimbatore district administration to act against errant Revenue Department officials in Thondamuthur.
In a petition submitted to the Collector on Monday, the farmers’ association said after its member Ramasamy of Viraliyur and a few other farmers objected to illegal sale of land allegedly by Vellimalaipattnam Village Administrative Officer and Thondamuthur Revenue Inspector, an argument broke out among them.

In , the grape capital of India and host of the Simhastha Kumbh Mela every 12 years, environmental concerns over a plan to cut 1,800 trees for the proposed Sadhugram project in the historic Tapovan area have sharpened political fault lines ahead of local body elections. The issue has pitted both Sena factions against the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), which leads the ruling Mahayuti alliance in Maharashtra. While Eknath Shinde, Deputy Chief Minister and Shiv Sena chief, and Uddhav Thackeray, chief of the Shiv Sena (UBT), remain political rivals, their parties have found rare common ground in Tapovan, where authorities propose clearing trees across 34 acres to build Sadhugram and a MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences and Exhibitions) hub, as part of a ₹300-crore infrastructure push linked to the pilgrimage.
