The Madurai Bench of the Madras High Court has directed Madurai district administration to file a report in response to a public interest litigation petition that seeks a direction to remove encroachments on a water channel of Periyar-Vaigai river basin division.
A Division Bench of Justices Pushpa Sathyanarayana and P. Velmurugan sought the response from the authorities on the petition filed by M. Rameshwari of Puduthamaraipatti in Madurai district. The petitioner complained that the water channel in the village was encroached upon by a real estate developer.
