Munnar eviction would continue - Chief Minister V S Achuthanandan

Chief Minister V S Achuthanandan Thursday said eviction of encroachers from the Government land in the hill resort town of Munnar in Idukki would continue without any delay.

Responding to the reported comments of the opposition leader Oommen Chandy that the fresh move of eviction by the Chef Minister was a \'publicity stunt and insincere efforts, he said that it was totally baseless.

The LDF Government had dismantled several suits and posh hotels constructed on the government land encroached by private parties a Munnar, he said.

The Kerala High Court, though made certain adverse remarks on the manner in which eviction took place earlier, had not criticized the dismantling of suits and posh hotels, he said.

He said that though there was a respite in the eviction process, it would continue more vigorously son and encroached land would be vested with the government.

He said that all the officials who had played foul would be brought under the law.
