‘Govt. let down Kerala on Mullaperiyar’

Opposition leader says permission given to cut trees has weakened State’s case
Leader of Opposition V. D. Satheesan has accused the CPI(M)-led Left Democratic Front Government of not protecting the interests of Kerala.
Inaugurating the United Democratic Front (UDF) Kozhikode district leadership conference here on Tuesday, Mr. Satheesan said Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan remained silent when Ministers took a contradictory stand on the orders for felling trees at the Mullaperiyar baby dam site.
He said Kerala’s argument in the Mullaperiyar case was weakened with the permission given to cut down trees. Mr. Vijayan and veteran CPI(M) leader V.S. Achuthanandan had earlier raised a hue and cry that if Mullaperiyar dam burst, over 40 lakh people in Kerala would drown in the Arabian Sea. The Chief Minister should now clarify whether the dam had strengthened or not since then.
