The Madurai bench of theMadras high court, on Wednesday directed the state government to file its counter on a petition filed by a Karur-based farmer, alleging that the government's order disbursing amount of compensation to the members of Noyyal River Ayacutdars Protection Association (NAPA), alone is arbitrary. However, the court declined to grant interim injunction as sought by the petitioner.
In his petition, R Selvam, a farmer and ayacutdar of the Orathupalyam reservoir, said over 28,000 farmers were identified by the Loss of Ecology Authority (LEA), as affected by the Noyyal river water and Oruthupalayam dam, which were polluted due to effluents discharged by the dyeing units in Tirupur.
