Twelve environmental activist groups in Thiruvananthapuram staged a dharna in front of the State Secretariat, demanding withdrawal from the proposed Athirappilly Hydro-Electric Project by the State Electricity Board.
The dharna was inaugurated by famous poetess and environmental activist Smt. Sugathakumari this morning. Eminent political leader Sri. V.M. Sudheeran, a crusader in the mineral soil issue in Alappuzha, attended the function and expressed his solidarity in this issue which gave a boost to the protest.
