Single judge dismissed plea against acquiring land for NH work
A Division Bench of the Kerala High Court on Wednesday admitted an appeal filed against a single judge’s verdict dismissing pleas against the acquisition of land at Kollam as part of widening the NH-66 between Cherthala and Thiruvananthapuram. The petition challenging the acquisition of land between Mevaram and Umayanalloor said that the acquisition would impact a mosque and a temple situated on the land to be acquired. The petitioner pointed out that the Vazhapilly lower primary School building and Umayanalloor Service Cooperative Bank building would also be affected by the acquisition proceedings.More Related News
